Alcatel OneTouch Fierce 2

Alcatel OneTouch Fierce 2

Although Alcatel has been known to come up with some pretty snappy phones at a fraction of the flagship price, the Alcatel One Touch Fierce 2 has received mixed reviews.  CNET says:

The Good The Alcatel One Touch Fierce is inexpensive, has great call quality, and clocks in with respectable HSPA+ speeds.
The Bad The handset's internal speeds are sluggish. In addition, its camera has a unintuitive UI and takes poor photos.
The Bottom Line Even if you're on a tight budget, you should skip Alcatel's One Touch Fierce in favor of a better prepaid phone.

The Pop Mega LTE is one of them and we played with it for a bit last night in New York. It features a 6-inch qHD display, 1.2GHz quad-core processor, a long-lasting 3400mAh battery, 8-megapixel camera, and supports 4G LTE. Go watch our hands-on video!

Specifications

• 8MP Camera with Autofocus, 2MP front facing camera
• Android 4.3
• Quad Core 1.2GHz CPU, 1GB RAM
• 4GB internal memory plus microSD slot

Alcatel Onetouch C1

Alcatel Onetouch C1 

The budget priced and pocket sized Alcatel Onetouch C1 has arrived at AT&T for the low price of $59.  This mini-powerhouse of a phone is instantly turning heads.

  AT&T and Alcatel are bringing a new budget Android device to the prepay market with the launch of the Alcatel Onetouch C1, which will be available for just $59.99. For the money, buyers get what is very much a budget device running an older version of Android. The C1 has a 3.5-inch screen of 320 by 480 pixel resolution, a 1.0 GHz dual core processor, 512 MB of RAM and 4 GB of storage (this may be bolstered with a MicroUSB card), a 2 MP rear camera and a 1,400 mAh battery that offers up to seven hours of talk time. 

  The device runs Android 4.2 Jelly Bean out of the box, which is a largely stock interface so all being well, the device should be reasonably fluid to use providing you’re not using any heavyweight applications. It doesn’t come with 4G LTE but at this price point, I wouldn’t be expecting high speed mobile internet. 

  I’ve used Alcatel’s basic handsets in the past and they exceeded my modest expectations, but it would have been nice if Alcatel could have invested a little bit more time and money and upgraded the handset to Android 4.4 Kitkat, which should work very well on the limited hardware as it’s been optimised for devices with 512 MB of memory.

  Does something like the Alcatel C1 make for a good introduction to Android? I am in two minds about this. On the one hand, the near-stock interface should mean that Android itself performs reasonably well. But on the other hand, the handset’s main feature is the low price. It is unlikely to be updated to a newer version of Android, so if the buyer wanted to work with Android Wear, he or she needs to look elsewhere. 

  The Alcatel C1 is not an Android One device, being much smaller in the hand and using an older version of Android, but it’s coming in at about half the price. There’s a lot to be said for this. Against this, if somebody were to pick up the C1 and start to take an interest in applications and some of the things that an Android smartphone can do, he or she would almost certainly grow out of the device very quickly whereas the Android One handsets do appear to have a lot more staying power. 

  

  However, if the user isn’t going to be be worried about doing anything altogether interesting with the handset then at $60, buyers get a basic but functional smartphone.
