Comparisons Featuring Panasonic P99
Short Review
- The Panasonic P99 features a compact design with dimensions of 144.6 x 71.8 x 8.6 mm and a weight of 145g, making it easy to handle.
- It sports a 5.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a quad-core 1.25 GHz CPU paired with 2GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks and moderate multitasking.
- The rear camera is an 8 MP unit with autofocus, capable of recording video at 720p@30fps, while a 5 MP front camera is available for selfies.
- The 2000 mAh battery offers standard usage but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- Running on Android 7.0 (Nougat), the software experience is straightforward, though it may feel dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone is available in Champagne Gold, Black, and Blue colors, adding some aesthetic variety.
- However, it lacks water resistance and stereo speakers, which may limit its appeal for some users.
- Overall, the Panasonic P99 serves as a basic smartphone with essential features for everyday use.
