Comparisons Featuring Qtek 8600
Short Review
- The Qtek 8600 features a compact design with dimensions of 112.4 x 46 x 14.8 mm and a weight of 120g, making it portable but somewhat bulky by modern standards.
- Its 2.2-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels with a pixel density of approximately 182 ppi, providing decent clarity for basic tasks.
- Performance is powered by a Samsung 2442 CPU running at 300 MHz, supported by 64MB of RAM and 128MB of ROM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
- The camera is basic, with a rear 1.3 MP sensor and no optical image stabilization, suitable for simple snapshots but lacking in advanced features.
- Battery capacity stands at 1190 mAh, with no fast charging or wireless capabilities, which may require frequent recharging under heavy use.
- The device operates on Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0, offering a straightforward user interface but limited app availability.
- Connectivity options include Bluetooth, but it lacks WiFi, NFC, and 5G support, restricting online access.
- Special features are minimal, with no stereo speakers or headphone jack, which may affect audio experiences.
- Overall, the Qtek 8600 is a basic phone that meets essential communication needs but falls short in modern functionality.
- Its design and performance reflect the technology of its 2006 release, making it suitable primarily for users seeking simplicity.
