Alcatel 1C, a basic device with 18: 9 screen
It is a basic phone, but it has a very elegant touch for its price. And it is that, for the occasion, Alcatel has awarded this Alcatel 1C has a brushed anodized aluminum finish . Thanks to its more rounded format, the device is very comfortable to hold. At the back, just below the camera, we find the fingerprint sensor located.
It should be noted, on the other hand, that despite being a basic phone, the Alcatel 1C enjoys a good-sized screen: 5.34 inches . The resolution remains somewhat fair. We are talking about a 960 x 480 pixels FWVGA +. However, and like its Alcatel 5 or Alcatel 3 companions, this device becomes one of the few in this range that has an immersive 18: 9 format.
Alcatel 1C, camera, power and battery
The main camera has 8 megapixels, interpolated at 13 megapixels, which will allow us to obtain more than decent photos. The second camera, located on the front, has 5 megapixels, interpolated at 8.
And now let's see how powerful this Alcatel 1C is. The device will have an integrated Mediatek MT6580M processor (4x A53 1.3GHz), combined with an ARM Mali400 MP2 500MHz graphics card (GPU) and 1 GB of RAM memory. It is a capacity, as you can see, quite fair. That is why the Alcatel 1C is a perfect mobile for users who do not have the slightest intention of overloading it or using very heavy applications. The operating system chosen for the occasion is Android 7 Nougat.
The device has less battery than other more powerful devices. There are 2,460 milliamps , which should offer users an autonomy of at least one day, with normal use.
