Comparisons Featuring XOLO Q520s

Short Review

  • The XOLO Q520s features a compact design with a 4.0-inch IPS LCD display, offering a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels and a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi.
  • Its build is straightforward, available in black and white, but lacks water resistance and premium materials.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6582M chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 4GB of RAM, which supports basic multitasking and app usage.
  • The Mali-400MP2 GPU handles graphics, although the overall performance may be limited for demanding applications.
  • The rear camera is 5 MP, capable of video recording, but lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera for selfies.
  • Battery capacity stands at 1820 mAh, providing limited longevity without fast charging or wireless capabilities.
  • The device runs on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), which is outdated compared to current standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and a microUSB 2.0 port, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The absence of stereo speakers and the presence of a headphone jack are notable features.
  • Overall, the XOLO Q520s is a basic smartphone suitable for essential tasks.
