Comparisons Featuring Micromax Bolt A27
Short Review
- The Micromax Bolt A27 features a compact design with dimensions of 116.2 x 62 x 13.2 mm and a lightweight build at 89 grams.
- Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is limited by a 1.0 GHz CPU and 0GB of RAM, making it suitable for very light usage.
- The camera system includes a VGA rear camera with no optical image stabilization and no front-facing camera, which restricts photography capabilities.
- The battery specifications are unspecified, indicating a lack of detail on capacity and charging options.
- Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is outdated compared to modern standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it lacks 5G support and NFC.
- The device does not have stereo speakers but includes a headphone jack for audio output.
- Overall, the Micromax Bolt A27 is a basic phone with limited features, suitable for minimalistic use.
- Its design and build quality are functional, but performance and camera capabilities are significantly constrained.
