Positioning
Alcatel is trying to create solutions that are optimal in terms of price / quality ratio, and often on budget devices, trying to stand out in their price segments. With this approach, it is important to create devices that can boast the absence of alternatives. The company has been actively developing a segment of the phablets for several years, while PIXI 4 (6) 3G refers to devices with a maximum diagonal of 6 inches, an intermediate link between Furns and Tablets. Phones with such a diagonal appear infrequently, and in the budget segment almost never. What in Alcatel and counted the opportunity for yourself.
A potential buyer of such a device is the one who searches for the device "two in one". On the one hand, the tablet, on the other hand, the phone that still can be hidden in the pocket, despite its size. Today, such buyers are often focused on operator tablets, which cost about 5 thousand rubles and have 3G / 4G modules, you can call them. Oddly enough, PIXI 4 competes precisely with them, but not at all by blocks. Niche for this device is very narrow, it is impossible to say that this is a mass market. On the other hand, for a small number of consumers, this device may be a find, as they do not have enough inexpensive phables, and the tablets are too large.
Design, dimensions, control elements
The budgetary nature of the device usually implies that it makes a collapsible body, here, on the contrary, it is monolithic. Plastic is pretty soft, dents remain with drops, but not chips, the paint is kept well. The design does not cause any complaints, although protective glass Traces from the hands remain, due to the size of the screen, they are clearly visible, almost constantly want to wipe it.
This device can be fully called a shovel, because at sizes of 168.7x85.8x7.99 mm he has a weight of 179 grams. In a big man's hand, it still looks somehow, but the woman is already unambiguously great. It will not work with one hand, so this model is used by two hands. The width of the body is such that even during the conversation it is necessary to strain the hand, ergonomics suffer here, and this is a given of such devices.
Compared to Galaxy S6 Edge +
On the left side, you can see two slots for SIM cards behind the folding lids. The mounting of the plugs is done so that they can be accidentally torn, and it must always be remembered and treating them carefully.
On the right side there is the same memory card connector, the volume is limited to 64 GB. Immediately - Paired Volume Adjustment Key, Turning / Off button. The microUSB connector was taken to the top end, and there - 3.5 mm connector.
In the device, two microphones, one on the bottom, the second near the camera. But the noise reduction system is not implemented, the second microphone is needed to record video.
In general, the device is collected qualitatively, no complaints. It will be available in different color solutions, which specific colors will appear in Russia unknown. Most likely, it will be only a silver case.
Display
Manufacturers try to put IPS matrices everywhere, as users consider them knowingly qualitatively, and here it is worth such a display. But with a diagonal of 6 inches, he has only 960x540 dots permission, which is clearly not enough, since the picture looks good only at a distance. If you look, you can see individual points that let them not catch up, but noticeable. It all depends on your ideas about the beautiful, previous models. If you transplancing such a device with a model with a smaller diagonal and HD-resolution, then you will see differences. Otherwise, you just do not pay attention to it.
There is a screen automatic adjustment Backlighting, it works well. The maximum brightness is clearly not enough to pull the picture in the sun, on the other hand, the device due to the diagonal wins, the text remains reading.
For the potential audience of this device, the screen will not be a disadvantage, it looks quite worn.
Battery
Battery LI-ION 2580 mAh, video playback time - up to 4.5 hours. At the same time in the usual, everyday life The device lives under the load of one day, which gives you about 2 hours of screen operation, about 30 minutes of calls. With a more economical approach, it can live for about two days. Considering that such devices are bought for voice communication, Network pages, but not permanent operation with the on-screen enabled, you can expect an average of one or two days of work. Time full charge Battery - about 2.5 hours.
Chipset, memory, performance
MEDIATEK MTK8321 chipset, four cores up to 1.3 GHz, MALI-400MP graphics processor. Not the most productive solution, a typical budget option. Nevertheless, there are no problems with the launch of applications and games on this smartphone. The interface works quickly and favorably distinguishes the device from classmates, often they have problems with it, as the larger resolution screens are. This is a compromise here.
The amount of RAM is 1 GB, internal memory - 8 GB, of which the user is accessible about half. Memory cards - up to 64 GB.
Look at the results of synthetic tests.
Communication capabilities
All on the typical level - GPS, Bluetooth 4.1, Wi-Fi 802.11 b / g / n, USB 2.0. GPS work It does not cause complaints, also the usual level for devices on MediaTek.
Camera
The front camera has a resolution of 5 megapixels, it is a tribute time. The quality of the pictures is average.
The main chamber has a module in 8 megapixels, it has an average characteristic, but there is a built-in barcode scanner, a number of additional modes, for example, Polaroid, when the picture is divided in half and can add a framework to it, different effects.
Examples of photos you can see below, they speak for themselves. The quality of the camera is typically for this class of devices, nothing wonderful to wait. In life, the camera is slightly slow, when shooting it is necessary to keep the device still. Video recording is possible in resolving FullHD (30 frames per second).
Software features
The device is built on Android 5.1.1, describe standard functions From and before I see the point. You can read about them in a separate review.
In Alcatel, initially seek not to change Android very much, but at the same time add their chips, which often spy on other companies. So, when scrolling the main screen, you will see OneTouch Stream. This is a weather forecast, reminders from your calendar, as well as news per day in which you cannot choose sources of information.
Finally, there are FM radio in the device, it is quite typically and only works with a headset, which acts as an antenna. Quality radio is not bad, there is text information On the ether, but there is no record.
The era of smartphones is increasingly displacing from the usual use of phones "old sample" push-button, with a minimum set of functions and not the most best characteristics. And Alcatel only supported the universal idea by releasing pretty good, inexpensive, but qualitative smartphones. One of them - Alcatel One. Touch Pixi. 3 (The review will go a little further), quite deserves attention and can be considered as a mobile device for every day - with a good assembly, convenient and affordable, this phone has won its right to exist in the modern world of electronics.
Characteristics Alcatel Van Touch Pixie 3
What did Alcatel make his new products to the public? First of all, the "golden" combination of cost and functional load. A rather powerful 2-core 32-bit MEDIATEK MT 6572M processor with a clock frequency of 1 GHz fully complies with the internal gadget software and successfully pulls all programs and applications installed by the manufacturer's manufacturer. The operating system is represented version Android 4.4.2. And let it be not the most latest model Operations, but taking into account that the phone is able to update itself before subsequent versions, it looks in general not so tragic.
In addition, the characteristics already existing on Alcatel One Touch Pixi are adequately complemented by its compact dimensions - 121.3x64.2x11.6 mm and low weight - only 110 grams. It is such models that coolently fall into any hand and do not look cumbersome. The touchscreen screen, multitouch with a TFT matrix and a 4-inch medium diagonal, is able to simultaneously distinguish up to 2 touches and does not suffer bad color reproduction or weak contrast. On the contrary - all on that good levelwhich can be expected from smartphones of a similar row. Screen resolution - 800x480 pixels - forms an image density in the amount of 233 pixels per inch. Also this model There is a 3.5-inch diagonal and a resolution of 480x320 pixels, and 4,5- and 5-inch screens, their resolution is already 854 x 480 pixels.
Color
Externally Alcatel One Touch Pixi 3 4013D (reviews about which, by the way, testify that the model will be popular) not much different from any typical smartphones - the front panel of glass (we note, however, that the usual), rear - from plastic, matte, Enjoyable for touch and not particularly dumping, there is also a brand logo, the corners are softly rounded with smooth lines. No special for phones in this sample are not provided, so if necessary, additional protection will have to purchase it separately. Alcatel One Touch Pixi 3 can be found in several colors: the classic black called "volcanic black", the usual white (White), silver (Silver) and pink (Pink) It is worth noting that the color of only the back cover changes, the front panel remains in black Color. There is support immediately 2 SIM cards (DUAL). Year of release - 2015.
Work time and memory
Battery Alcatel Van Tack Pixie 3 can also be found to standard, its power is represented by 1,400 mAh - it allows you to use the device in standby mode for about 2 days. In the conversational mode and at other activities (Internet, music, games ...) time, naturally, is shrinking and in this case, the charge from charging before charging will be not more than 8 hours.
RAM exactly as much as it is required to maintain this model - 512 MB, the main one is 4 GB, but you can buy up to 32 GB, by setting the MICROSD memory card to the appropriate slot. Has a smartphone voice navigation function and a standard wireless technology set - Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, and they are supported by technology Edge.. For music admirers - built-in radio stereo-FM.
Camera
Cameras for photo and video filming, as it is believed to a decent smartphone, two are common with 2 MP and a resolution of 1980x1020 points, and a frontal from 0.3 mp and a maximum resolution of 640x480 points. The quality of the photo and video slightly enhances the automatic LED flash, but there is no autofocus, therefore the definition of images will definitely not be at long distances. For optimal pictures and shooting more or less quality video We'll have to choose small distances and an acceptable level of lighting objects. During the video, the camera is capable of catching up to 30 frames per second and save the finished product in expanding MP4 or H.264, the maximum video resolution will be 1280x720.
Summing up, we can say that the price exhibited for Alcatel One Touch Pixi 3 the price is greatly consistent with its internal content. Yes, without delights and various bells, but it is a great option when you can save money and not losing in quality. The technical characteristics of Alcatel go to the leg over time, special glitches and hangs in the system are not observed, and in addition, this smartphone due to the presence of two SIM cards can safely replace two ordinary phones.

Terrible camera, and frontal, and basic. Memory problems, do not understand what this phone wants, the memory card is 4 GB, installed in the settings immediately move all applications to the memory card, but it does not move them. Sooo stupid, it is impossible to google normally in Google, or watch a video on YouTube. Quickly sit the battery, right in front. The wire in the kit began not to work literally after 1 month, I had to use another. During the conversation by phone, the conversation itself is very angry.

Very brake, after switching on the minute and a half minutes, then the Touchscreen slows down the first time. The touchscreen itself is generally very coarse, reacts poorly to touch, very often the adjacent one instead of the desired button. Because of this, you try more to use voice input But it is more or less well working only when the 3G connection is connected. And sometimes you have to repeat 5 times. With memory at all some kind of trouble is not clear what a memory card is needed if installed applications There are not transferred. I have a situation when to set some new application you have to wash the old. In general, the phone is suitable only as the simplest dialer

Equipment
Alcatel Pixi 4 comes in a white-blue compact cardboard box with a bright decor.On the front side there is an image of a smartphone, a company logo and model name.
Legal information about the trademark in different languages \u200b\u200bwas published on the left face.
On the opposite side listed the main specifications Gadgets and depicted photos within the Polaroid type, which demonstrate the presence of this mode from the phone (more about it - in the "Camera" section).
On small edges, the Alcatel logo is minimalist and pasted brief information About the device: model code, IMEI, supported communication standards, etc.
Inside the box, except for the device itself, are: 5V 550mA power adapter, 1M micro-usb cable for connecting to a PC, leaflet "Getting started", booklet with information on safety measures and conditions guarantee, warranty card and insert headphones headset.
Appearance
The material from which the smartphone housing is made and the rear panel is plastic.
The front side is also covered with plastic. Above the screen is a flash, conversational speaker, front camera and alert light indicator.
Below is the touch buttons "Back", "Home", "Menu". The response is fast, however they are not highlighted.
The back cover, as mentioned earlier, is made of plastic and has holes for the camera and flash. It opens very hard and with a characteristic crackle, which is why the feeling is created that it is about to break.
Under back panel There are a battery for 2000 mAh, two microsim slots and a microSD memory card slot. A feature of the design is that a slot for the second SIM card and for a memory card is independent, whereas to insert or pull out the SIM card from the first slot, you need to remove the battery.
On the top face of the smartphone there is a 3.5 mm connector and a microphone.
On the right face there are physical power buttons and volume control, and the switch key is located above, which is why it is extremely inconvenient to use it.
Below are the Micro USB connector and the second microphone.
Accordingly, there is nothing on the left side of the device.
A small, from the point of view of modern trends, the diagonal of the screen, the average thickness of the gadget and the slight roundness of the back cover contributes to the fact that Pixi 4 is convenient to keep in hand during use.
Display
Alcatel PIXI 4 is equipped with a 5-inch display with the TFT-TN matrix with the ability to display 16 million colors. Color reproduction satisfactory. This is explained by the type of matrix, slightly "dimming" color.
The brightness of the screen is weak. Outdoors to use the phone almost impossible. "Pulles oil into the fire" Plastic coating, which not only wildly brings even indoors, but also significantly narrows the viewing angles, distorting colors and weakening brightness. In addition, plastic is pressed by pressing a little stronger than the usual, leaving specific spots on the matrix.
Oleophobic coating is absent
Multitouch - maximum amount Recognized touchs - 2.
Iron
The smartphone works on a processor with a 64-bit MEDIATEK MT6735M structure, four Arm Cortex-A53 cores with a frequency of 1 GHz. The main differences from MT6735 - lower clock frequency, as a result, the ability to "curb" displays with a resolution of a maximum of 720p, but also more economical power consumption.
Everything is manifested in games typical shortcomings Performance: Image Fuzzy, textures with "ladder". Some applications for a few seconds after loading are trained.
The amount of RAM is 1 GB - minimum for basic functions Gadget. In case of daily use, the average load is 65-70%
An interesting situation has developed with internal memory. From the claimed 8 GB, 4.23 GB is available according to the section "Device Memory" in the phone settings, or 3.6 GB according to the official site of the manufacturer. In fact, the user will collide with a lack of a shortage after installing the main set of applications. If desired (which will necessarily arise), the memory can be expanded using a microSD card up to 32 GB.
The sensor responsible for turning the screen is very sensitive, because of which the image on the display rotates from the slightest oscillations, even when the smartphone is motionless on the table.
Software
Alcatel PIXI 4 is running mobile operating android systems 6.0 Marshmallow. From the pleasant additions from the manufacturer's company, you can call the panel quick access On the lock screen and the ability to change the scale of images in the gallery and frame of the chamber with one finger. The main menu sorts applications in alphabetical order and it seems to be changed.
Sound
In the presented gadget, the main speaker is constantly sent to the user, as it is located on the site of the conversational dynamics and is such. The design is made with fine perforation, as a result of which the sound with difficulty "breaks out out." This explains quite low indicators of the maximum volume of the noise issued - 66.7 dB.
Included with the smartphone are headphones headset, the quality of which does not imply long and intensive use.
Communication
Considering that the spoken speaker is the main, the quality of the conversation at a decent level. The interlocutor is heard well even in a noisy environment, in turn he hears also well - noise reduction.
Pleases the presence of the 4G module and that it works. The quality of the signal depends on the zone lTE coatings Communication operator.
The Wi-Fi module catches the signal well, without breaks.
