IFA 2016 | Alcatel announces Pop 4 XL phablet
Alcatel revealed the Pop 4 family of handsets earlier this year, at MWC 2016. Now, this mid-range lineup receives a larger device, namely the Pop 4 XL phablet. In addition to it, Alcatel also brings three Pop 4 tablets to IFA, but they will be the main topic of another article.
Alcatel Pop 4 XL is powered by a MediaTek Helio P10 octa-core processor, accompanied by yet undisclosed amounts of memory and internal storage space. The cameras used are average - 5 MP front snapper and a 13 MP main image shooter on the back, both with dual flash. The 6-inch display uses a fully laminated IPS panel, but its resolution fails to impress - nothing more than HD, apparently. The phablet is powered by a 3500 mAh battery that is expected to provide a limited autonomy of up to one day in standby mode.
The price is not known yet, but Alcatel mentioned the Pop 4 XL would hit Europe and the MEA region starting next month. For a hands-on with the new Pop devices, those interested can still check booths 102 and 104 in hall 21B at IFA.
