Comparisons Featuring Maxwest Virtue Z5

Short Review

  • The Maxwest Virtue Z5 features a simple design with dimensions of 147 x 75 x 9.3 mm and a weight of 140g, available in black, white, blue, and pink.
  • Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6582M chipset, with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 4GB of RAM, providing satisfactory operation for everyday applications.
  • The Mali-400MP2 GPU handles basic graphics, while the camera system includes an 8 MP rear camera capable of 720p video recording at 30fps, though it lacks optical image stabilization and a front camera.
  • The 2300mAh battery supports standard charging and does not offer wireless charging options.
  • Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), the software experience is dated but functional for essential tasks.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.0, and a microUSB 2.0 port, with no support for 5G or NFC.
  • The phone does not feature stereo speakers but includes a headphone jack for audio output.
  • Overall, the Maxwest Virtue Z5 is a basic smartphone suitable for users with minimal requirements.
