Short Review
- The Plum Axe features a compact design with dimensions of 122 x 63.6 x 10.4 mm and a lightweight build at 98 grams.
- Its 4.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi, which may appear less vibrant compared to modern standards.
- Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6575 chipset with a 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and 4GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but limited for demanding applications.
- The 5 MP rear camera captures images with autofocus, though it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- Battery capacity stands at 1400 mAh, providing basic longevity without fast or wireless charging options.
- The device runs on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), which is outdated compared to current software offerings.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone has a miniUSB port for charging and data transfer, with a standard headphone jack included.
- Available in black and white, the Plum Axe lacks water resistance and premium materials.
- Overall, it serves as a basic mobile device with essential features but limited capabilities.
