Comparisons Featuring Plum Volt 3G
Short Review
- The Plum Volt 3G features a compact design with dimensions of 141 x 69 x 9 mm and a weight of 150g, available in black and white.
- It sports a 5.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 441 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6589 chipset, a quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 4GB of RAM, which allows for basic multitasking and app usage.
- The camera system includes an 8 MP rear camera with autofocus and 1080p video recording capabilities, while the 2 MP front camera is suitable for simple selfies.
- The battery capacity is 2000mAh, which may require frequent charging due to its limited capacity and lack of fast charging features.
- Running on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is basic and may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device has a miniUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, with no wireless charging available.
- Overall, the Plum Volt 3G is a straightforward device that meets essential smartphone needs without advanced features.
