Phil, 04 Jan 2017Got one for my daughter. Put on WhatsApp and want to put on... moreall apps you do not need, delete or disable, but remember ''messenger'' is
a nightmare for every phone, as corrupting the phone memory for a few days, because all the time running in the background and the battery life is short because of messenger.

I like the phone in ways,but it's 2 biggest faults is its camera not great and the memory is a joke,but apparently some people have had success formatting an sd card,but others haven't,I have ordered one and should have it soon,and if it works Ile be happy with the phone, shame about the camera tho but it's passable,but if this SD card doesn't work then the phone is useless.

The Alcatel Pop 4 was made in 2016 with a 8mp camera and some phones made in 2013 have an 8mp camera... Rubbish!!! As well I all ways get 'Unfortunately ... Has Stopped. It is also really slow, laggy, etc. I would recommend you to get a better brand EG Samsung, Apple, Microsoft etc.

When I bought the Alcatel Pop 4, it seemed like a good deal ..... few pounds cheaper than the "equivalent" Samsung. How very wrong I was ----- Selfie camera is out of focus and, it seems, there is no way to focus it. |Also, Despite following instructions regarding SD cards, the phone just will not use it ...... Waste of money and a classic case of "false econ
omy" ..... lesson learnt. Stay away from Alcatel : useless PS almost impossible to get a case for it, as well ....

I'm afraid to be so bold, but this phone is absolute rubbish. No storage capability even with S.D card, the main issue I have is video audio quality on play back, totally distorted and muffled. totally regret upgrading from my trusted Motorola to which I'm going back to..

My God this has been my second Alcatel phone and this phone has been so bad. I would constantly try and open apps but it takes so long to open any apps. I was trying to talk to my friend but i could hear him but he couldn't hear me. It freezes constantly every time. This phone is garbage and I would highly recommend keep your money and buy something else worth while not this garbage.

AnonD-615530, 30 Nov 2016The Alcatel POP4 is loosing power so quick and has to be on... moreuseful information for how to charge mobile phone battery;
li -ion batteries work better when you are not used to the end 0%,but most to 25 % and then put the battery to charge75-90% , ( why?)
lithium-ion batteries have a rated lifetime of somewhere between 500 and 1,500 charge cycles.
so if it reach 100% or less then 25% then it lose 1 cycle.(the user runs it down all the way to zero before recharging) can degrade to 70 percent of its original capacity in 300-500 cycles
With a DoD of 25 percent, where the user plugs it in as soon as it gets to 75 percent remain, that same battery could be charged up to 2,500 times before it starts to seriously degrade.
Charge a little bit whenever you can.
Lithium-ion batteries don't respond well to being charged all the way up and then run all the way down. They take much better to little bits of charge here and there.
What's far more dangerous to a battery's well-being is heat. Lithium-ion batteries despise heat.
Battery consumption depends on the applications you have installed on the phone and working in the background, even if you do not use the phone. such as; facebook, instagram, messenger, if you delete these apps and use them through the browser , thus saving up to 40% of the battery (day)life , the display put on minimum brightness and wi - fi, bluetooth, use it when you need.

The Alcatel POP4 is loosing power so quick and has to be on the charger for as long as you use it. Purchased the phone mid-September but it's annoying. don't know what to do with it anymore. Even if I use "Clean Master" the space isn't there as advertised and battery span. I found this to be worse phone in this era even though it has good features.
