Alcatel OT-983
 |
Alcatel OT-983 released in November 2012 is a budget friendly device that comes with a 3.5 inch display. What can we say more about this phone. Well, the display is not something special. Its resolution is just 320 x 480 pixels or 165 ppi pixel density. Moreover, this display is the old TFT type, and it supports only 256K colors. This smartphone is pretty thick and heavy despite its 3.5 inch screen. It measures 114.5 x 61 x 12.5 mm and weighs 136 grams. Alcatel One Touch 983 includes only 150 MB storage that you can expand with a microSD card. The processor under the hood is a single –core BCM at 1 GHz backed by 512 MB of RAM. The whole device is built around Android 2.3 Gingerbread. The camera on the back is a basic, low quality 3.15 MP one, so don’t expect nice photos. The phone lacks front facing shooter, but it does have an FM radio, A GPS, and many additional software features. Alcatel OT-983 is available in two colors – in cherry red and in black, each powered by a 1300 mAh battery. Overall, this is an entry level phone suitable for those who are first time Android users. |
