Alcatel OneTouch SPop D Raven Black (Electronics)

Customer Review

I wanted a low-priced Android smartphone with dual SIM function, expandable memory via Micro SD and replaceable battery. Since the selection is not very big, and often you pay only for the dual SIM feature significantly more or get otherwise outdated technology (eg several Samsung dual sim mobile phones). After my research primarily offer Alcatel and Huawei interesting dual sim phones with good price-performance ratio.

Compared with my getting on in years HTC Touch Pro 2 with Windows Mobile 6.5, the display is clearly worse at about the same screen size. Pictures are great, only small fonts look dirty from. As long as one does not read eBooks on the phone, that's no problem. The viewing angle stability is also out of date - there is no IPS display (of course, I had not expected). But HTC was then also a premium smartphone and therefore much more expensive.

Where the S'Pop can of course points, is that can access manauf a huge App Store, although the small screen and low resolution does not allow any app seem sensible.
The CPU is for normal applications absolutely strong enough the surface to scroll through the contact list or Spiegel Online, is always very fluid with 1 GHz single core - very different from my old HTC.

Even games when it does not have to be the last 3D game running. Even "Kingdom Rush" running around, which surprised me because it even my Nexus 7 tablet can be rapidly hot and the battery drains rapidly. The screen is of course too small for KR, you have to scroll back and forth.

Internet makes naturally by monitor not really fun but is also amazingly smooth. As for the mobile Internet, I find my Nexus 7 Tablet (2012) actually just enough so that surfing on a cell phone for me always be only a stopgap, if I go times need to quickly look up something important. For even goes this phone. Oh yes, a wireless router can also be set up so that you can also go once to the Internet with a pure wireless tablet.

Typing on the on-screen keyboard is a bit fiddly, but it goes quite well for short texts - of course, a 4-inch model would be better here.

One "defect" I've discovered: When I set up a pin combination as a login, in which a "5" occurs, the touch screen responds, even though the key itself is very large, very often, you have to press several times , Funny, because otherwise the screen seems accurate and sensitive, and also the pocket Recher is incomprehensible. Has anyone found something similar here?

GPS I've tested with "GPS test", it seems to be accurate, but need a very long time for the first satellite reception. In the apartment only reception is possible directly at the window. Whether the device useful would be as Navi ...? One would have to try.
Oh - and the dual SIM feature is of course super convenient, for example, to combine two prepaid plans - one which is particularly beneficial for data, one for calls.

Oh - calls. The sound quality on the phone is OK, but not as good as my old HTC, which is not surprising.
Wi-Fi access is also sufficiently strong (by two walls).

The battery life is fine, good even when the battery is replaceable, which is apparently only Alcatelshopping for 25, but - can plus shipping purchase a replacement battery. Because you will be more likely to buy in two or three years probably a new phone, I think. For Samsung mobile phones you get cheap original batteries, but I would not want to pay almost twice as much for the comparable Samsung models.

If I did not want a dual sim, I would possibly take Y300 by monitor rather a Huawei, which is also affordable and much better, but with dual SIM function you'd have for a phone with a better screen (Huawei G525) already significantly more pay.

From value for money therefore currently quite unique when you come clear with the restrictions.
