This is a well designed phone which the manufacturer did not shy away from using good materials. The edges separating the phone body are soft screen which makes seguremos the telephone without feeling forced reliefs. Unfortunately, the Idol 4S slide easily. You need to handle it firmly so they do not end up on the floor.
The manufacturer and solves the issue by providing a protective film screen and a back cover. This is a thin and light phone that due to screen size, requires us to use almost always both hands to control the interactions. But all is for the best because of the quality of the screen that, although display colors something exacerbated (typical AMOLED) allows a very accomplished visual experience. Mainly under the direct sunlight. The high resolution (2K) contributes so that we can read in comfort. The same pixel generosity helps the good video playback and use applications.
Experience
Alcatel not much changes Android. What is good. Integrates some root apps – even an app store – but we are interested in highlighting a sound software that does the same, all the difference. The MaxxAudio, the Waves is a suite that allows equalize the audio. The result is very good and improves when we join the Bose headphones offered.
The behavior of the cameras is acceptable. Well done when we are abroad with high ambient light, but on the inside (low light) things have not run so well. The integrated software for camera control provides access to manual controls and suckers from the root of integrating micro-videos (possibility of making small clips with some effects) and Parallax Fyuse (which is a picture that combines various angles).
The performance of Idol 4S is average. The option component does not stand up to G5, the Galaxy S7 or P9. But the truth is that during the tests we noticed not any flow losses in this terminal. In RV overheats. But this is the behavior we recorded also in other competing phones
The Boom button, hand, allows you to access some features quickly -. Take pictures with the screen off, for example. It’s nice, but it is not a critical factor for the success of this terminal.
Virtual Reality … for free?
And now, surprise. Idol 4S has a very unusual case. The phone comes in a Virtual Reality glasses (RV). They are much like the Gear VR, Samsung, but have advantages and disadvantages compared to the system and other market. The big advantage? They are free. Ie included in the price of the phone. What makes the offer unbeatable Alcatel. For less than 500 euros, we get a phone with some features top of the range which includes spectacles constructed assets.
Let’s look at the specs in detail. Plastics are resistant q.s. tapes and the handle to the head, although not very thick, can attach the device with a certain firmness. The lenses included seemed to us good enough. At least the visual experience of the content in RV was pretty nice. Simply place the phone on the glasses to shoot an app that connects to the contents that are in the terminal and not only.
Once you put the phone in glasses, it comes in RV mode. There are no visible light leaks, which helps concentration. The system is comfortable and can adjust to the tapes to adjust the glasses to the size of the head. Everything worked smoothly. It should be noted that the phone quite heated at the end of a few minutes of RV.
The glasses software provides access to applications and content that have been installed from a store included in the system. The offer is generous and it is important to say that the system is compatible with the Cardboard, Google. Unfortunately, the use of this platform was not so well suited, which leads us out of that almost unwillingly environment. It is important to note that the glasses Alcatel include an action button and other back. Both on the bottom of the system, which implies some habituation. Using these headphones provided with the glasses allows a high degree of immersion
Even taking into account that the visual experience becomes tiring at the end of time -. The resolution is not very high and note the . loss of some frames, both in video and in some games – the experience is pleasant enough to recommend
