Alcatel A3 and U5 smartphones are the budget option. And do not expect any miracles from them. A modest plastic case that makes gadgets seem stuck in time.
Mobile device manufacturer Alcatel has proven itself in the best possible way. Once again, two modern smartphones were released, which "do not grab stars from the sky" and do not pretend to be a technical breakthrough. But due to the fact that they will not hit the budget of a potential buyer at all, they found their grateful users. These are the modest Alcatel A3 and U5 models. Both devices are based on a frail Mediatek MT6737 processor. The cases of these devices are made of ordinary plastic.
Model Alcatel A3
Smartphone Alcatel u5 is equipped with a 5-inch display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels. The device has 1.5 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage, expandable by connecting a MicroSD card.
The smartphone has a 13-megapixel main camera with autofocus and flash, and a 5-megapixel front camera. There is also a fingerprint scanner. The battery in this model has a capacity of 2460 mAh. All this technical wealth is comfortably located on the Android 6.0 platform.
The Alcatel A3 model is in a more advantageous position, if only due to the fact that it has a full-fledged processor with a dual-core video accelerator. On this unit it is possible to play old ladies-3D-games, and the display will not "kill the eyes" due to the HD-resolution. Also, this smartphone has a good 13 megapixel camera. It allows you to take photos with good quality, and the selfie camera is capable of quite coping with pictures for Instagram.
Model Alcatel U5
This mobile device has a 5-inch display with a resolution of 480 by 854 pixels. RAM - 1 GB. The accumulative memory is 8 GB. The front main camera in this model is 5-megapixel, and the rear one is 2-megapixel with LED flash. There is support for two SIM-cards and LTE-networks. The alcatel u5 has a 2050 mAh battery. Like its opponent, this model is based on the Android 6.0 platform. Phone Alcatel A3 is pretty simple. It's a stretch to call it a smartphone. The manufacturing company decided to save a lot on everything related to design and performance. In principle, as for an ordinary mobile device of the “dialer” type, it is quite suitable, but no more. It will still be somewhat problematic to play actively on it.
Which phone to buy is up to everyone personally. But objectively, the Alcatel A3 smartphone is much more productive than its opponent. And this is an important point for any modern mobile device. User reviews of these models are still quite good. Deciding to buy, many were guided primarily by the cost of gadgets.
