Comparisons Featuring XOLO Black
Short Review
- The XOLO Black features a sleek design with a glass front and back, both protected by Gorilla Glass 3, and an aluminum frame, measuring 155.5 x 76.6 x 7.3 mm.
- Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 403 ppi.
- Performance is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 chipset with an octa-core CPU and 2GB of RAM, providing adequate multitasking capabilities.
- The camera setup includes a 13 MP rear camera with a secondary 2 MP depth sensor, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera is suitable for selfies.
- The 3200 mAh battery supports standard charging but lacks wireless options, offering decent longevity.
- Running on Android 5.0 with the HIVE Atlas UI, the software experience is basic but functional.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device lacks stereo speakers but does include a headphone jack for audio output.
- Overall, the XOLO Black combines a solid build with competent performance and camera features.
- It is a well-rounded device for its time, though it may feel dated by current standards.
