This is the second budget gadget after the sensational"Tele2-mini". It is necessary to think that the next line will be called "Maxi". Having at its disposal a quad-core processor, a 4.5-inch display and an Android platform of the 6th version, the average smartphone "Tele2" (price - 3190 rubles) looks very good even against the background of other budget devices. Both phones, both mini and midi, will fit perfectly as a modern gadget from the lower price range.
So, the subject of today's review is a smartphone"Tele 2". Features, design features, as well as advantages along with the disadvantages of the model, we discuss below. In the calculation will be taken the opinions of experts in this field and reviews of ordinary owners of the average smartphone from the cellular operator "Tele2".
The purpose of the gadget is, in principle, understandable:fill a budget niche in one of the most popular format spreads by 4.5 inches and get additional customers into your network due to a significant reduction in price and other different "goodies" from "Tele2" (phones / smartphones / prices / stocks, etc.) that go as if complete with a new device.
In general, the diagonal of 4.5 inches differs in itsin almost all scenarios. This format can be described as "one gadget for all occasions." Of course, this "dialer" does not look so attractive against the background of 5.5-inch devices with a more nimble "stuffing", but this is completely different money, and in this case they paid for it, they got it, that is, the smart phone "Tele2" .
Reviews of owners note the presence of at least somediversity in terms of color performance. Particularly pleased with the white coloring of the lady, because the vast majority of the beautiful half still prefer a more cheerful and cheerful colors as opposed to boring "male" colors.
As for the cost, the smartphone "Tele2" (priceindicated above) can be purchased for an even more attractive amount, if you take in advance a few months of subscription fee on a particular tariff. In general, the gadget looks like a good budget solution for most regions, where 2G and 3G networks work normally. By the way, in 4G networks the smartphone "Tele2", alas, does not work, but this moment it can not be called a critical drawback.
The device is packed in a decent box of cardboard. On it you will see brief characteristics of the model, labels of different certificates of conformity and other less useful information.
In the box are:
The cover for the smartphone "Tele2" in the kit does not go, you need to buy it separately.
It should be noted right away that the standard adaptergadget is charged for almost three hours, so it's worth it to buy something more powerful, at least an amp. 2. What other disadvantages does the smartphone "Tele2" have? Reviews of users with indignation note the absence of any type of headset in the box.
Interestingly, the owners of expensive devices,which can be called an all-inclusive package, prefer to choose third-party quality accessories for the gadget, while the budget consumer uses only what is in the box. And here we see only the charger, and even that stupid.
What are the origins of the gadget's design?Sidewalls for metal, the original camera peephole and the strict shape of the entire structure. The camera moved to the corner looks much nicer than the stuck in the middle. Naturally, the addition of additional accessories and "clothes pegs" to the eyelet is almost not realized, but it is not needed here: few will want to indulge in third-party optics on a camera without autofocus and with a resolution of 3.2 megapixels.
The gadget is a little thinner than the last onesmart phone "Tele2". Characteristics of the hull, interestingly, vary greatly in fact and virtually. If the official operator's website specifies a thickness of 7.45 mm, then the actual figures are close to 10 mm (calipers to help). The same can be said about the weight of the device: on the site - 158 grams, and in the manual - 130 grams. If you estimate "on hand", then most likely, the first figure is more objective. Therefore, to choose any additional accessories you need more carefully on the smartphone "Tele2". Reviews of owners recommend to pick up covers not virtually, but only with a gadget on their hands, otherwise there is a great risk of getting either a hoodie or a gap on the case.
The device is equipped with a simple TFT-matrix for 4.5inch with a resolution of 854x480 pixels. The density of points is quite acceptable for the budget model (218 ppi), and you can see the individual pixels if you look closely. Especially pixelation is noticeable on maps and small fonts, with the rest of the graphics sort of like a smart phone "Tele2", the review of which you are now studying.
Vertical variation of the angle causes a strongdistortion of colors, horizontal leads to loss of gamma saturation. The moment may be uncritical for "egoists", but you will not be able to see the photos and see the video in the company even one adherent.
The brightness of the display, in principle, enough.In a sunny day, you can read the data on the screen without any problems. I was pleased with the automatic brightness adjustment, the display reacts quickly and smoothly. This quality was pleasantly distinguished smartphone "Tele2". The owners' comments repeatedly noted that even in "thoroughbred" gadgets this point is not as well realized as our respondent, so there is no desire to correct brightness manually during the work.
Also pleases the presence of preinstalledthe proprietary package Mira Vision, which allows you to adjust the default settings of the display with a wide spread. A smart thing, especially for TFT-matrices, differing in "innate" blue. Keep this in mind before setting up your "Tele2" smartphone.
Venerable benchmark "Antutu" gave the device 14 534points on its scale. For the current realities, of course, not enough even for most budget models. And this is the "little" is noticeable even in the routine operation of the device without any serious loads of powerful applications.
The gadget has on its "board" only 512 MBRAM, which is also not enough to perform most tasks. Smartphone pulls simple toys and plain software, but literally "choking" on applications more serious. In addition, the interface differs, albeit small, but sagging, "brakes" and other lags, if you decide to quickly flip open or open.
Despite belonging to the budget segment,The smartphone surprised by the "survivability" of the battery. Full day the gadget worked quite confidently and did not ask for an outlet, and with quite active operation. Overnight, the loss of charge was only 3% in standby mode. Of course, many will say that this moment depends entirely on the quality of the network coverage, but nevertheless the modest battery consumption is quite pleased. In addition, there are additional settings and modes for even greater savings.
A good fly-spoon here is the nonlinearityindication of the remaining charge. The first 15-20% of the capacity is consumed disproportionately long, while the device can spend 30% of the rest of the battery for some five minutes.
Reviews indicate that spending time inthe Internet, and social networks in particular, is not very comfortable. In the most common mode of web surfing, a smartphone can "ponder" for a long time, even if it goes through the internal pages of the site, and this is with all the filled strips of the 3G network. This point, of course, annoying, but if you do not jump from the tab to the tab, then you can somehow still be able to reconcile yourself with this defect. Here, perhaps, it's not that social networks are "heavy on the rise." The reason, most likely, lies in the abundance of newfangled advertising garbage, which is pouring an endless stream into the Net, thereby loading even smart Internet resources.
As for the sensitivity of the sensor, then hereno claim. No sorting, inaccuracies or other defects were detected. With speed in 3G networks, too, everything is in order: there is no technology like HSPA +, but the ceiling is quite encouraging - 3.5 Mbps for transmission and 14 Mbps for reception. Communication without failures and other failures. There are also no complaints about wireless protocols. Weifai and bluetooth work equally well both on "noble" gadgets, and on our "Tele2".
The sound is more or less acceptable, althoughcharacteristics of the dynamics, even if budget, could be better. The maximum loudness is at a relatively high level, but it's of little use: if you add more than 70% of the sound, you can hear obvious distortions, sipes and other cacophony.
The diagonal of 4.5 inches is optimal forsuch gadgets. It seems that the difference is small in comparison with the 4-inch models, but nevertheless getting a finger in the letters when typing the same SMS is much easier. Naturally, it's even easier to type text on 5-inch or more devices, but the dimensions of the latter, as well as the prices, do not suit everyone.
You can recommend the gadget to those who are looking forlow-cost smartphone entry-level. "Tele2-midi" fully meets expectations and justifies its value. The merits of the device users include a very democratic price tag, a relatively new platform on the "Android", a good battery life and an acceptable appearance.
Any special complaints, if you look atprice, sort of like not. Of the more or less serious shortcomings, the reviews mark a mediocre display on an outdated TFT-matrix, a small amount of RAM and very sad camera characteristics. In the rest it is a usual budgetary "dialer".
