Alcatel turned out to be one of the first producers who decided to reveal their new products under the guise of semi-virtual MWC 2021 fair. The company presents the Alcatel 1 2021 and Alcatel 1L 2021 smartphones, as well as a children's smartwatch.
All Alcatel novelties belong to the budget segment, and even ultra-budget one. Suffice it to say that the most expensive of the three novelties is the aforementioned smart watch for children, the Alcatel Movetime Family Watch 2. Let's go over the new models, starting with the cheapest.
Alcatel 1 (2021)
Alcatel 1 2021 - with the year we added in the name - is a continuation of the "Jedynek" series from 2018-2019. There is a smartphone with Android Go, which is in the segment of devices from the lowest price range. It costs only 59 euros. It is equipped with a 5-inch FWVGA+ display surrounded by a wide frame and a 2-megapixel selfie camera. The rear camera, in turn, has 5 megapixels, and the smartphone is powered by a 2000 mAh battery. The heart of the device is the MediaTek MT6739 quad-core processor, supported by a gigabyte of RAM and 16 GB internal memory, which can be increased by 32 GB with a microSD card.
