I have just bought one of these at dicksmith in Australia, and been using it for a while. (After my S3 screen broke in pieces after a drop). After using it for a week, I must say that this is a good phone if you are a basic user. Basic means, making phone calls/text, listening to music, using internet for surfing, youtube, facebookt etc. It has a good size screen (4.5inch) and the video quality was surprisingly good when you are looking on youtube. Music sound is not excellent, but because there is a sound equalizer, you can adjust the sounds to your taste. Only things are; battery life is basic (lasts for one day and will be 0% at the end of the day), although camera is 5MP the picture quality is poor so don't expect iphone or samsung galaxy's camera function on this phone. (Use your digital camera because its not really useful when the quality is so bad). Playing games is a ease, however the RAM is only 512MB so you have to keep erasing the apps not been used, to clear and make space on RAM. Call quality is good, menu layout and the setting is basic and is easy to use.

Overall I felt this alcatel phone is user-friendly and well thought through. Desing is basic, but feels good on your hand and sturdy, the back cover is soft-to-touch so its quite comfortable to hold. It also gives you a break from samsung galaxy and iphones which it seems everyone is using! It was a nice change! Final words, I am looking forward to using this phone for the next couple of years and hopefully it will last long as its a nice phone. Thanks for reading :)

        i just got that phone about a week ago .. and here is what im gonna say about it :
        shape and weight and size are so neat for me
        sound quality through speaker is awesome and loud .. but through earphones isn't so loud .. but so clean .. and i could fix that by getting a better earphone than the stock one ..
        the screen is perfect .. its really dragon trail glass with ole-phobic coating and very scratch resisting but there is something about the screen .. at certain degrees of brightness you can clearly see waves going from the bottom to the top of the screen but they don't really disturb me .. the battery life is fair .. not so long though but ok .. it can go for a full day .. with wifi and music and all ..
        its ram is kinda low .. but if you clear the cashed processes regularly and the running apps that you don't you .. it will run as smooth as you with
        at the end .. for its price .. its a great phone .. don't hesitate to buy it

            AnonD-96864, 04 Sep 2013is there a possibility that this device can be upgradeable... moreYes it can be upgraded but you'll pay more. The device may be formatted or else they will insert a new os software on the device but you have to pay.

                              You should add the gpu tipe of this phone. I have it and saw the specs on another site. It says its gpu is PowerVR SGX531T (Series5).I wonder if it is true. Please reply to this comment.

                                re the volume problem when using headphones, did try that trick with dialing the engineering number and adjusted headphones to 160 max. Well did work to some extent, its better than before, but Vol still drops quite a bit when plugging in headphones. Alcatel designers must have been pissed, when they designed that!

                                There is another solution, there is an app called Audio Boost, now that works really well if sound is low- increases it by quite a large amount! Only irritating thing has to be switched on and off manually.

                                  try to update if it works coz i have no issues regarding loss signal while charging when i bought it. regarding battery, almost all manufacturers like sony xperia, lg, samsung,htc et.al when u browse the user's guide they recommend to fully charge it for the first time and frequently to increase battery efficiency, please try to read user's guide if u have time, i charge my phone once or twice a day coz im a heavy internet nut. use mx player coz it support wide range of video formats. mine can play 720p and 1080p without noticeable lags, just deactivate some apps to play full hd smoothly. ive experienced data loss when plug in to pc via usb, if that happen just restart ur phone and repeat it. by the way im from Philippines.

                                    its camera has an excellent output, it also support HDR capabilities. u can use rear and front camera to capture images however it doesn't support HDR on videos its only on cam. front camera is not so good as told by somebody else? nope it isn't, compared to other phones this phone has a qHD resolution the more resolution the move blurry images it make, just an analogy try to imagine if you put a small image specifically VGA to a high resolution phone, the output is too bad if u try to stretch the image, got it?. max vid is 720p@30fps. it doesn't have led notifications. yes, the back really heats whenever u play heavy games and its pretty normal to some android phones.
