                fran6325, 26 May 2023Is this a bot? Because this phone runs on Android 11 and yo... moreChipset Mediatek MT6761 Helio A22 (12 nm)
                CPU Quad-core 2.0 GHz Cortex-A53
                GPU PowerVR GE8300

                I looked up this processor online I find it's a old mediatek soc processor best suited for Android 8 as I seem a lot of smartphones with this chipset that run android 8

                I've seen a lot of Android 8 smartphones with this chipset choice it's just mediatek keeps using this old budget soc for newer smartphones this is fine as long as the price is right

                It's ideal choice keep products in production industry with old chipset like there's for the reason it's cheaper produce products with older soc as existing equipment is ideal for keeping price down for production industry costs that's Ideal for customers

                It's not a good processor however it's good enough for too run the web browser & apps too a good enough for every day usage standard for a budget smartphones (£60) i like this soc it's the reason I choose this smartphones was for the soc plus the RAM / ROM for only £60 pound

                  Older software is better because it's easier on the hardware as the hardware isn't powerful enough for the for modern software too handle so your better off ideally if the smartphones run android 8 with the mediatek a22

                  The Alcatel 1b 2022 does also have virtual system ram that improves the system performance by making up for the limited amount of real ram of only 2 GB ram & I think 3gb virtual ram

                  I tested the Alcatel 1b 2022 in gaming it was able too run heavy games like mobile legends bang bang that run good enough for me too have fun

                  The Alcatel 1b 2022 also comes with Tiktok per-installed on the smartphones this app is so good it even pays me money too use the smartphone
                  With money apps

                  The Alcatel brand is the cleam of the crop for people on a budget who can't afford better

                    I love this phone. For the £60 price tag, it runs quite smoothly (unless you push it) and Android 11 Go Edition works really well on this phone. I recommend this as a good budget phone!

                        Alcatel is has proven there software is good and they are genuine good at making budget smartphones
                        I am TCL Alcatel fan now
                        Most favourite phone brand

                        I only wish this phone supported dual screen mode and run Android 8 go edition yes.sadly so I rather use older software it's superior

                        This just goes too show software isn't improving its getting worse over the years

                        I see the point of lighter software but this comes at the drawback of multi tasking performance

                        The go edition version of Android are not well optimized but still works at least on Alcatel

                        After a lot of hindsight I think software is too be blamed for hardware performance and a custom root switch is better as it allows for better functional performance

                        Mediatek DuraSpeed app is ideal improvement also if only it installation was easier

                        Even so this isn't enough storage at least there is a SD card slot it better work well for apps

                        This is red pill honest reviews here rated at price point of £60 brand new on sale

                        Best local UK budget phone choice you can buy with real cash real money in a real shop

                          I brought this budget Alcatel 1b 2022 for £60
                          In the UK with own money when on sale

                          I had high expectations for the Alcatel 1b 2022 and it delivered even better then that

                          Great budget smartphone from my experience this phone is very nice too use

                          The budget king in the UK because of affordable pricing

                          The screen even so it's a TFT LCD low Res display screen the picture looks nicer than my Nokia c01 plus

                          The performance even so this isn't a good phone is still usability is good enough

                          It turns out 2gb ram & 32gb storage is bare minimum with Android 11 too be good enough

                          The budget crappy mediatek a22 turned out be honestly not too bad it's possible mediatek very experienced with the budget market

                          Alcatel also great at making budget phones
                          I like everything about the design of this phone

                          It's now my new dally driver am so happy I brought this it's amazing for the price
                          Also the software is good That's really important also

                                      Wait, isn't this just a rebranded TCL 303 or is the TCL 303 a rebranded Alcatel 1B (2022)?
