Comparisons Featuring Lava Iris 550Q
Short Review
- The Lava Iris 550Q features a large 5.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 267 ppi.
- Its build dimensions are 156 x 77.8 x 9.8 mm, weighing 177 grams, which gives it a substantial feel in hand.
- Performance is driven by a quad-core 1.2 GHz CPU and 4GB of RAM, allowing for basic multitasking and app usage.
- The rear camera is 8 MP with autofocus, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 2 MP front camera serves for basic selfies.
- The battery capacity is 2600 mAh, which supports standard usage but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is dated compared to modern standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The device is available in black and white colors, though it does not offer water resistance.
- Overall, the Lava Iris 550Q is a basic smartphone with essential features for everyday tasks.
