Alcatel OneTouch Idol Alpha Mobile Price in India
Alcatel OneTouch Idol Alpha is the latest smartphone launched by the company; this company as we know was famous for making smartphones at low end prices but Alcatel OneTouch Idol Alpha tells a different story. The OneTouch is priced around 15000 INR and the only reason you would like to buy this smartphone is because of the plastic bits above and below the Smartphone giving it looks like Sony Xperia U, P, and SP. However with such amazing design the price of this smartphone is very high compared to competitors.
Features and Specifications:
The first look of Alcatel OneTouch Idol Alpha is going to be amazing because of its unique plastic bits at the top and the bottom of the smartphones on its 4.7 Inches HD screen. However the specification may not be up to the mark but for design I would suggest you to buy it. The OneTouch alpha is loaded with 16 GB of RAM inbuilt along with an external Memory support of 32 GB which is good enough for a smartphone. Talking about the processor the OneTouch Alpha is powered with 1.2 GHz and supported with 1 GB of RAM. The camera of this smartphone is of 13.1 MP giving you clearer and sharper images along with HD quality.
Design and Quality:
The design of OneTouch Alpha is pretty similar to Xperia P which is a plastic bit at the bottom of the screen along with soft keys on it. However the soft keys are at the very bottom of the screen which sometimes is difficult to click. The Smartphone is made to stand out among the crowd so this design does it pretty well. The speakers of this smartphone are located at the back bottom whereas the Volume keys and Lock keys are at the right side of the screen. One major setback of this smartphone is there is no 3.5 mm jack so you cannot charge when you want to listen to the song and vise versa.
Tech and OS:
No matter how unique the design is, the core specification of this smartphones which is the CPU lacks in numerous ways compared to other competitors. The Smartphone is running on Android OS v4.2 which is very outdated as there are many new version’s out after that. The Smartphone also has 1 GB of RAM and 1.2 Quad core processor which gives smooth experience to smartphone but if you are a gamer ,well let’s just say find some other smartphone. The OneTouch won’t be a good option if you want to install heavy applications and play games, because with I GB RAM there are chances of lags. Overall this smartphone is suitable for moderate usage.
Camera and Multimedia:
The primary camera of OneTouch gives you the best shot possible with its 13. MP you can capture every moment in HD quality and cherish it forever. The Smartphone also supports LED flash light allowing you to use camera in dim light as well as at night. OneTouch also has an option of HD recording, allowing you to record videos in full HD mode. The front camera also click amazing picture with 1.3 MP camera. It supports various features like Face and smile detection, touch focus, panorama and burst mode.
Battery and Memory:
The battery of OneTouch is of 2000mAh which allows you a usage time of 9-10 hours easily on rough usage and around 11-12 hours on simple usage. The main reason of battery going down might be the LED light at the plastics bits but still it gives a great performance.
Talking about the Storage space this smartphone comes out of the box with 16 GB inbuilt which is a fair amount of storage for a smartphone but if you need even more there is an external SD card support which helps you to extend the storage up to 32GB.
