Alcatel One Touch Star
 |
Alcatel One Touch Star was announced in February during the MWC in Barcelona. With this device Alcatel is aimed at capturing the low-end market in which we see a really big competition, especially from companies like LG and Acer. Therefore, you cannot expect any super-fast processor or HD display. Instead, Alcatel One Touch Star features a 4 inch AMOLED display with an average 480 x 800 pixel resolution. The other specs are telling us that the potential buyers of this handset are those who don’t want to spend a lot of money for some high-end device. What do we mean? Let’s have a look at the other specifications. First, the One Touch Star features a 5 MP camera and a dual-core processor that ticks over at 1 GHz supported by 1 GB of RAM. On the other hand, this design is pretty appealing, it has some iPhone feeling, it has a style despite the plastic body. Thanks to its design, the Alcatel One Touch Star is a really nice phone. Despite the average quality screen, it has a very good contrast and looks as good as any AMOLED screen. This smartphone runs Android 4.1.1 and features some exclusive Alcatel additions. |
