Comparisons Featuring Plum Axe Plus

Short Review

  • The Plum Axe Plus features a compact design with dimensions of 129 x 65.1 x 9.9 mm and a lightweight build at 112 grams, available in four color options: black, white, blue, and red.
  • Its 4.0-inch TFT display has a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi, but lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6572M chipset with a dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 4GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks.
  • The Mali-400 GPU supports light gaming and multimedia playback, while the camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera capable of 720p video recording and a 1.3 MP front camera for selfies.
  • The 1200 mAh battery provides limited usage time and does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • Running on Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is basic, lacking modern features.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but there is no support for 5G or NFC.
  • The absence of stereo speakers may affect audio quality, though a headphone jack is included.
  • Overall, the Plum Axe Plus is a straightforward device suitable for essential smartphone functions.
