Scope of supply: *****
The delivery is in addition to the smartphone itself and the battery containing a charging cable and a Quick Start Guide German. Furthermore, there is a headset and a USB data cable. Wow ... very surprised I am that in my unit a 2 GB Micro SD memory card was included. That's a big surprise. Although I still get a bigger memory card supplied, but this unexpected "free" memory card now gets my daughter for your phone. For the price of delivery is certainly sensational!
Processing: *****
Simple but still valuable and meticulously crafted. To the smartphone around a small metal strip has been processed. That looks really good. I have large hands and pack ever happy vigorously. This device makes at least nothing, since nothing creaks. I have unfortunately allowed to experience different at much more expensive phone. The processed plastic has a fine texture and has a good grip. By the way, the plastic does not smell well. For a low-priced "entry-level" smartphone Anyway, I'm more than pleasantly surprised. Ne, actually, I'm very impressed.
Telephone reception / practicality: *****
The phone reception and voice quality are absolutely fine. So this smartphone is one thing above all, namely, perfect for everyday use. That's exactly what I expected.
Usability / display: *****
It was processed a sufficiently large display (3.2 inches). The display is capacitive and especially MULTITOUCH capable.
GPS / A-GPS: *****
This smartphone has not only simple GPS, but (I'm thrilled) even A-GPS. Because the A-GPS is an additional support system for real GPS. AGPS uses data from the GSM network to the receiver to transmit auxiliary data flying the positioning faster to success. For mobile phones with the approximate location is based on the radio cell which uses the telephone, are already known.
Processor Performance / Speed: **** *
Was processed a newly developed 650 MHz faster processor. This is efficient enough for everyday use. My applications open at any rate fast and fluid. However, the processing power has its limits. If you simultaneously open multiple applications, this processor the breath goes out slowly. For a smartphone in this price range, there are still 5-deserved star.
OS *****
Was processed a current Google Android OS 2.3.5 named Gingerbread.
Camera ***
3 megapixels but no picture light. The camera will take during the day or in bright light good photos. No more and no less.
My Conclusion:
This is my first smartphone from Alcatel. I get for a sensational low price a fully suitable for everyday use smartphone with dual SIM and a GPS / A-GPS. The processing and in particular the facilities are comparable to that of a regular smartphone middle class. I forgive here really like 5 star. For this price range, the Alcatel OT-918D is an absolute highlight.
