Comparisons Featuring Maxwest Nitro 5M
Short Review
- The Maxwest Nitro 5M features a compact design with dimensions of 144.2 x 73 x 10.3 mm and a weight of 148 grams, available in black, blue, gold, and red.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which may limit clarity for detailed visuals.
- Performance is driven by a Spreadtrum SC7731 chipset, a quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 1GB of RAM, providing basic functionality for everyday tasks.
- The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera capable of video recording and a 2 MP front-facing camera for selfies, though it lacks advanced features like optical image stabilization.
- The battery capacity is 2200 mAh, supporting standard usage without fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 6.0 Marshmallow, the software experience is relatively outdated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device has a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, alongside a standard headphone jack.
- Overall, the Maxwest Nitro 5M is a basic smartphone suited for essential tasks without advanced features.
- Its build quality and design are functional, but performance and display limitations may not meet the needs of more demanding users.
