Short Review

  • The Mitac MIO A701 features a compact design with dimensions of 117 x 59 x 22 mm and a weight of 150g, making it portable but somewhat bulky.
  • Its 2.7-inch TFT resistive touchscreen offers a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, providing basic visual clarity with a pixel density of approximately 148 ppi.
  • Performance is driven by an Intel PXA270 CPU clocked at 520 MHz, paired with 64MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The camera system includes a 1.3 MP rear camera, capable of video recording but lacking advanced features like optical image stabilization.
  • The 1300 mAh battery supports basic usage but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 PocketPC, the software experience is dated and may not support modern applications.
  • Connectivity options are limited, with no WiFi, 5G, or NFC, and only Bluetooth 1.2 available.
  • The device does not include stereo speakers or a headphone jack, which may affect audio experiences.
  • Overall, the MIO A701 is a basic device with limited features, suitable for essential tasks but lacking in modern capabilities.
  • Its design and build quality reflect its mid-2000s origins, making it less competitive in today's smartphone market.
