Short Review
- The Plum Optimax 12 features a large 7.0-inch TN TFT display with a resolution of 600 x 1024 pixels, providing basic visual clarity but lacking HDR support.
- Its build is relatively bulky, measuring 188 x 107.5 x 10.3 mm and weighing 272 grams, available in Black, Silver, and Rose Gold.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT8321 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 1GB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
- The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera capable of 720p video recording and a 2 MP front camera, offering basic photography options.
- Battery life is supported by a 2400 mAh capacity, but it lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- The device runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow, which is outdated compared to current standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- There is a headphone jack, which is a plus for audio enthusiasts.
- Overall, the Plum Optimax 12 is a basic device with essential features but limited performance and modern capabilities.
- Its design and build quality may appeal to users looking for a simple, functional phone.
