Alcatel One Touch Hero Dual SIM

6-inch hero in action

The world in 13-megapixles and Full HD

The camera of One Touch Hero disappointed me a bit. No, it was not because of the photo’s quality - I am content with this, I was, however, disappointed with the software, which seems to inform that “you will not have too many options”. The 13-megapixels matrix takes satisfactory photos, with no colours distortion and without enhancing visual parameters, which makes photos look natural. They can also be taken with the volume button – singles, as well as (after holding the button a bit longer) series. Only a few options!

Autofocus and touch focus, which is forced with a touch, work correctly (below you can find photos of a cat and lichens). Pre-defined settings allow using HDR, panoramic photos, settings for night-time and photos in movement. In advance settings we can also adjust photos’ size (large, medium, small – really?), set a timer, sensitivity and exposition. Is it enough to take good photos? Yes. Is it enough to compete with interfaces proposed by competition? Definitely not.

The quality of Full HD recording is satisfactory. If we are not trying to make the movie too dynamic, they are even worth showing friends, not to mention social media. The only problem that I have encountered is one of audio codecs, which the smartphone uses. Disruptions and distortions appear, when the noise level is too high (like during a concert), just like in other smartphones not used to extreme conditions.
