Comparisons Featuring XOLO 8X
Short Review
- The XOLO 8X features a compact design with dimensions of 143 x 71.3 x 8.8 mm and a weight that allows for easy handling.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6592M chipset with an octa-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 1GB of RAM, which supports basic multitasking.
- The camera system includes an 8 MP rear camera with autofocus and a 5 MP front-facing camera for selfies, although it lacks optical image stabilization.
- The battery capacity is 2500 mAh, which is adequate for daily use but does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), the software experience may feel dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port and retains a headphone jack for audio.
- Overall, the XOLO 8X offers basic features suitable for everyday tasks without any standout capabilities.
- Its build quality and design are functional, but it lacks modern enhancements found in newer smartphones.
