Alcatel unveils Pixi 4 Plus Power smartphone

Alcatel has never been a player in the high-end area of the smartphone market but always had interesting offerings in the low-end and mid-range categories. The recently announced Pixi 4 Plus Power is no exception, delivering an impressive battery, but very weak specs overall.

Alcatel Pixi 4 Plus Power is a 5.5-inch handset with a 720p IPS multitouch display, powered by an unspecified processor, next to 1 GB memory, 8 GB internal storage, and microSD support up to 32 GB. The front camera has 5 MP, while the main image snapper uses a 13 MP sensor. Depending on the market, cameras might be different. Unfortunately, this handset does not even provide 4G connectivity, although it packs dual-SIM capabilities.

The 5,000 mAh battery promises to provide 22 hours of WiFi browsing, 14 hours video streaming, as well as five days of "nonstop music." Considering its specs, the price should be around $100 USD. We will get back to the Pixi 4 Plus Power as soon as Alcatel unveils its launch date and price tag, so stay tuned.
