Alcatel Updates its One Touch Idol line with One Touch Idol 2, Idol 2 Mini (S) and Idol 2S
Alcatel has introduced the successors to their Idol One Touch line with Idol 2, Idol 2 Mini and Idol 2 S.
The Idol 2 will sport a 5 inch qHD Display powered by 1.2GHz Quad-Core Processor that is supported by 1GB RAM and 8GB Internal Storage. Its optics is at 8MP primary camera with Flash and a 2MP front. It does have the basic connectivity as WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and NFC but only has HSPA+.
The Idol 2 Mini share almost all of the Idol 2 specs the difference of course is the screen size at only 4.5 inch but also with qHD resolution.
If your disappointed with the two siblings above then you may take a look at their S variants. The Idol 2S sports the same 5 inch but has HD remsolution. It is also powered by 1.3GHz Quad-Core SOC more or less a much more newer SOC. The Idol 2 Mini S however is just the LTE variant which goes the same for the Idol 2 S.
With regards to Battery repsectively 2150mAh for Idol 2S, 2000mAh for Idol 2, and 1700mAh for Idol 2 Mini.
It is said to shipped with Android 4.3 and is promised to be upgradeable to KitKat 4.4. The New line of Idol will also arrive with Dual Sim variant that has double internal storage except for the S variants.
Honestly with the new Idol 2 line is to say sub-par especially with qHD resolution. However a lower resolution will have a more liquid performance and with an IPS LCD Screen for better viewing angles plus a scratch-resistant glass and Oleophobic coating it does improved the the outlook for the devices.
If you want more then maybe the Idol S variants are for you coughing up a few bucks for HD resolution, better SOC and LTE.
Alcatel also provides set of accessories from smart covers and whats looks like a wearable device. This sets it apart from other where you simply have problem finding accessories.
It is said that the Mini will arrive in March with 3G model ($232) and LTE (2 Mini S $287) while on Idol 2 is said to be on April or May 3G model ($274) and LTE (Idol 2 S $342). Might between 11K to 17K in Philippines Peso me thinks.
You just weigh your needs to decide which ever to get, it really depends on your consumer preference anyways.
