Comparisons Featuring Philips W8560
Short Review
- The Philips W8560 features a straightforward design with dimensions of 144 x 73 x 10 mm and a weight of 158g, making it relatively comfortable to hold.
- Its 5.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, providing sharp visuals at approximately 441 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6589 chipset with a quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 2GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
- The rear camera has a 13 MP sensor with autofocus, while the front-facing camera is limited to 1.3 MP for selfies.
- Battery life is supported by a 3300 mAh capacity, but it does not feature fast or wireless charging options.
- The device runs on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), which may feel outdated compared to newer operating systems.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 4.0, though it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The phone has a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, and it includes a standard headphone jack.
- Overall, the W8560 is a basic smartphone with essential features but limited advanced capabilities.
- Special features are minimal, focusing primarily on standard smartphone functions without notable enhancements.
