Alcatel 5 Hands On, Quick Review: Elegant Looks For Cheap
Source: Unbox Archive.org version
Touted as their “flagship” device, the Alcatel 5 sells for Php 8,499. While we admittedly love its unconventional notch-free design, its outdated processor and Android OS make us think twice about this promising device. Other brands offer better specs at a similar price or lower, placing the Alcatel 5 at a really tough place.

80% Mid-range Alcatel 5
Source: Gadgetspeak Archive.org version
This is not a premium phone and so one cannot expect premium performance. However, having 32GB ROM and 3GB RAM and running Android 7 (but not the more recent Android 8) on an octa-core MTK6750 processor one can expect and does get reasonable performance all round even though booting up from cold took the long time of about 90 seconds. Available SIM-free on Amazon for £179.99 it should suit those who want the wide range of features but are not power users who make heavy use of a smartphone.

It has an alluring price, but others have better performance, battery life and designs.

The Alcatel 5 offers a dominating 18:9 display and reasonable camera performance for around £230. However, a slightly odd design, underwhelming performance and mediocre software make it hard to recommend in a strong field. The similarly priced Moto G5S Plus does the basics a lot better and with considerably more style.

Alcatel 5 review: Hands-on
Source: Tech Advisor Archive.org version
The Alcatel 5 is definitely an engaging smartphone. From our short experience with it, it appears that you get a lot - like real lot - for your money. We are not too fussed about the low storage space or average processor, or even top bezel as for the price you get a very good looking phone with some nice premium features.

Hands on: Alcatel 5 review
Source: Techradar Archive.org version
With an almost bezel-free display, this 18:9 ratio phone does similar tricks as a lot of the big flagship devices, but for less. If everything here works well, the Alcatel 5 could be a great handset.

Alcatel 5 initial review: Striking edge-to-edge looks in an affordable package
Source: Pocket Lint Archive.org version
At €229 it's unlikely you'll spot a phone that's more eye-catching than the Alcatel 5 when it launches. Its unconventional approach to screen bezel will make it one of the few phones that's recognisable in the sea of same-y looking devices.
