Short Review

  • The Plum Gator 5 features a robust design with dimensions of 148 x 76.3 x 12 mm and a weight of 210 grams, making it feel substantial in hand.
  • Its 5.2-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at around 282 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6580 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 2GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but limited for demanding applications.
  • The camera system includes a 13 MP rear camera with autofocus and a 5 MP front-facing camera, capable of recording video at 720p.
  • Battery life is supported by a 3700 mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast or wireless charging options.
  • The device runs on Android 8.1 (Oreo), which may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it lacks 5G support and NFC.
  • The phone is available in black and orange colors, adding a bit of personalization.
  • It has a microUSB 2.0 port and a headphone jack, catering to users who prefer wired audio.
  • Overall, the Plum Gator 5 is a basic smartphone with essential features and a sturdy build.
