Comparisons Featuring Panasonic Eluga A3
Short Review
- The Panasonic Eluga A3 features a sleek design with dimensions of 148.7 x 72.4 x 9.1 mm and a weight of 161g, available in Gold and Silver colors.
- Its 5.2-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 282 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6737 chipset with a quad-core 1.25 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 3GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks.
- The camera system includes a 13 MP rear camera with PDAF and 1080p video recording capabilities, alongside an 8 MP front camera for selfies.
- The 4000 mAh battery ensures extended usage but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 7.0 Nougat with FitHome UI, the software experience is straightforward but may feel dated.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device has a microUSB 2.0 port and retains a headphone jack, catering to traditional audio preferences.
- Overall, the Eluga A3 is a functional device with essential features for everyday use.
- Its build quality and battery life are commendable, though it may not appeal to users seeking advanced specifications.
