Alcatel Ideal - Pros & Cons

colors are vivid and even extreme angles of view are clear
s a great step forward and a solid value
It brings improvements across the board
including a premium build
It performed admirably in our usage
performance improvements and other changes
It has virtual image stabilization
which
Sound quality will always sound great
Camera shot-to-shot time was also acceptably fast

pretty slow when the screen is off
device may be too hot or have other apps running in the background
Battery life is very sensitive to changes in screen brightness
this setting cannot be enforced by the benchmark app
slower fingerprint scanner and inferior camera quality
there is only support for GSM network connectivity
s no missing that camera hump
questionable performance when conditions are not so ideal
Too many are simply trying to capitalize on affiliate revenue
s not too shabby
battery is generally in the red by the time it s lights out
top-notch hardware
Flicking on HDR also slows things down
Glass backs are all just a bit 2014
lack of the recovery image through the recovery tool
Slow or Fast rings
No one cares about live tiles
lack of a recovery image
can't go dark from the lock screen or from the camera app
smaller and slightly weaker-of-hardware
weirdly no selection for automatic brightness
