Alcatel has rolled out a pair of new Pixi 3 devices at MWC 2015 this week. The new devices include the Pixi 3 phablet and the Pixi 3 tablet. Both of the devices aim to give budget shoppers 4G connectivity for fast web browsing on the go. The Pixi 3 is a 5.5-inch phablet smartphone and the Pixi 3 tablet has a 7-inch screen.
The 3G phablet smartphone has a big 5.5-inch screen as mentioned before, but the resolution is low to keep costs down. That big screen has a resolution of 560 x 960. The other hardware under the hood is modest as well keeping in tune with the low cost promise of the device.
It uses a MediaTek MT6580 quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, and it has an 8MP rear camera paired with a 2MP front camera. Power comes from a 2910 mAh internal battery and it has a memory card slot for storage expansion. The operating system is Android 5.0. The 4G version of the phablet rocks the same size screen with 720 x 1280 resolution and a smaller 2800 mAh battery
The phablet has a 7-inch screen with resolution of 1024 x 600 for the 3D and WiFi version. Those versions also run Android KitKat out of the box. The 4G version runs Android 5.0 right out of the box. Screen resolution for all the tablets is the same with the difference being the 4G version gets a Snapdragon 210 quad processor and 1GB of RAM with all other hardware the same between all three versions of the tablet. The 3G and WiFi versions of the tablet get a dual-core MediaTek MT8127 processor, 512GB of RAM, and 4GB of storage. Pricing is unannounced at this time.
