Alcatel A7 Smartphone

Design and Display

Alcatel A7 sports an elegant design with its metallic black chassis, which appears to be of plastic. It differs to an extent from your average budget offerings. The body boasts an engraved spin touch that boosts its appeal. But 9 mm is on the thick side, you’d say.

The Alcatel A7 features a Full HD LPTS IPS display, as the Idol 5. But the screen size is bigger at 5.5 inches to provide ample space for watching movies with friends. And of course, you can expect great wide viewing angles on this one.

Camera and Storage

You will find a 16MP camera on the rear of the Alcatel A7. This comes with an f/2.0 aperture, phase detection autofocus (PDAF) and dual-LED dual tone flash. Share-worthy selfies may be expected from the robust 8MP snapper on the front.

Alcatel A7 has internal storage capacity of 32 GB. It also takes a microSD card for expansion by up to 128 GB.

Performance and OS

You can expect this to provide slightly more solid performance than the Alcatel Idol 5, coming with MediaTek MT6750T chipset. The octa-core processor is a bit faster at 1.5 GHz and gets support from 3GB RAM. We can say the Alcatel A7 should not struggle too much with multitasking. It boots Android 7.0 Nougat operating system.

Other Specs and Features

A headline feature of the Alcatel A7 is its humongous 4,000mAh Li-Ion battery. You can supposedly expect up to 18 hours of talk time from this juicer. With fast charging support, refill takes about two and half hours.

In terms of connectivity, there is support for fast LTE networks. You also get Bluetooth 4.2 and Wi-Fi b/g/n with Wi-Fi Direct and hotspot among the options. There is a fingerprint sensor on the rear of the phone.

Price of the Alcatel A7 starts at €229.99 in the United States. Alcatel A7 Price in Nigeria is expected to range from 95,000 Naira to 125,000 Naira depending on your location in the country.
