The French brand Alcatel has experienced ups and downs many times. At the dawn of appearance push-button telephones the company has shown excellent performance, presenting one new product after another. But then something went wrong, and the manufacturer was literally pushed out of the market. In 2004, the mobile division became unprofitable and only the merger with the Chinese TCL helped the engineering team stay afloat.
But all this is prehistory that deserves a separate material. And before us is a very vigorous and interesting tablet Alcatel One touch POP 7S, which debuted on the market in 2014 and is still popular among users today. In the title, we indicated that this model should not be confused with the S7, and we are not talking about the flagship smartphone Samsung Galaxy, but about the tablet produced by the same French. What is interesting about the device? At least support for 4th generation networks, a 4-core platform from Qualcomm, Bluetooth 4.0 and a set of color panels for every taste. The reference point for the youth segment is obvious.
Information about Alcatel One Touch POP 7S
6.7 Evaluation
Let's see what's in the kit
The device comes in a bright yellow box on which the tablet itself is painted, as well as the corporate logo and slogan.
Inside we are waiting for a device wrapped in a shipping film, branded charging block, micro-USB cable, 3 colored back covers (red, yellow and green), and a brochure with the model's specifications.
Stylish youthful design
Before us is a rather plump gadget in terms of dimensions, which is given out by rather wide frames around the display and a sloping plastic back. The latter, by the way, is not removable, and is made in black or white. If this range is too boring for you, or just tired of it, you can always use one of the three funny overlays, which additionally lie in the box and are waiting for their finest hour.
All controls and connectors are located the same as on smartphones. At the bottom there is a micro-USB port for charging and connecting to a PC. On the right side there is a power key and a volume control, on the left there is a slot for SIM cards and microSD, and on top is a headphone jack.
The tablet can be easily operated with one hand if you have a rather large palm that can hold a basketball. In other cases, this will be problematic.
A display that surprises with its quality
The POP 7S screen evokes positive emotions. Let's start with the fact that the engineers did not skimp on a good IPS-matrix with a diagonal of 7 ", a resolution of 1024x600 pixels, an aspect ratio of 16: 9 and a pixel density of 170 ppi.
Let's finish with the numbers and move on to the work experience. To begin with, multitouch supports up to 5 simultaneous touches, which is more than enough. Yes, some devices are capable of recognizing 10 fingers, but remember at least one application besides the built-in tester, which uses so many limbs.
The brightness is enough to keep the picture readable even in the bright sun. This is facilitated by a good polarizing filter and smart image backlight technology. There are no complaints about contrast either, but the calibration let us down a little and the whole gamut slightly goes into cold tones. You won't be able to fix this programmatically, unless you download third party application from Google Play.
A few words about sound
The tablet cannot be called the market leader in terms of volume. There is only one speaker here, and every now and then you want to tweak it, but all the time you run into the maximum, you feel sad and take this fact for granted.
The volume reserve will be quite enough for watching videos on YouTube, but for listening to music it is clearly not enough. Yes, and the speaker is frankly not on friendly terms with frequencies, cutting off the lower and upper ranges as much as possible, forcing the middle one to puff out to the maximum.
Decent characteristics
Considering that the price of the device at the time of the publication of the review is less than 7000 rubles, the filling of the tablet is very serious. The device is based on a 4-core platform Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 up to 1.2 GHz. We are talking about the MSM8226 chip, since there are also more efficient 1600 MHz versions. The production rate is 28 nm, and therefore you can count on good energy efficiency.
To display the picture on the display, the graphics accelerator Adreno 305 is used, operating at a frequency of 450 MHz. The numbers are not record-breaking, but the division is also appropriate. The performance of this bundle will be sufficient for demanding HD content and even some modern games at low and medium-low graphics settings.
Separately, I would like to mention the wireless modules Wi-Fi b / g / n, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS and even NFC, which is hard to believe, but the function is still there, and it shows itself perfectly. The tablet also supports 3G and 4G networks, providing network access speeds up to 150 Mbps. How do you like these indicators for a budget device?
If we talk about memory, then it is frankly squeezed here. 1 GB of RAM is a standard value for this class of tablets, but 4 GB of permanent memory is frankly not enough. Yes, there is support for microSD, but after all, only the cache and user data are stored on the card, and all the necessary programs will have to somehow be stored on a small storage, which is also initially occupied by the Android OS.
Autonomy is clearly lacking
The tablet received a very modest 3240 mAh battery by modern standards, and this is extremely small for a 7-inch tablet, which you will probably use every day and for several hours, every now and then including Wi-Fi or 3G. If you use the device to its fullest, then it will ask for charging in 7-8 hours.
In the mode of sparing use, the gadget lives for about 1.5 days, and with activated GPS only 3.5 hours. Either the engineers did not think about the moment with the battery, or they simply decided to save money.
A camera to which you want to close your eyes
A budget device by default cannot be endowed with good optics, miracles do not happen. The main camera of the tablet has a resolution of only 3 megapixels, which is clearly not enough for cool shots in low light conditions. The optics behave surprisingly well in the sun.
With the front-facing camera, everything is much worse - it is only 0.3 megapixel (VGA) and is suitable only for conferences via Skype. But be prepared that your interlocutors will see a blurry image with significant delays and high graininess. So we recommend that you only use the front camera in an emergency.
A software platform that is surprising
Operating room Android system 4.4.2 Kitkat is another disadvantage of the device. You can make an allowance for the fact that the device was released in 2014, and at that time the shell was fresh and up-to-date, but with updates, optimization and support, everything turned out to be much worse. POP 7S was abandoned just after its release.
All nuances aside, Alcatel's software works flawlessly. Firstly, it is devoid of third-party garbage and proprietary applications that only clutter up precious memory. Using the device is pleasant and comfortable.
Let's summarize
Alcatel one Touch POP 7S is a visually pleasing and technically good tablet with a number of nuances to consider when buying.
If you decide to buy inexpensive device up to 7000 rubles, you will have to come to terms with such flaws, especially since there are not so many budget tablets on the market that are worth paying attention to. And for all the shortcomings of the Alcatel One Touch POP 7S, it still remains an interesting device.

Introduction
I have already written many times that many B-brands have reached a dead end, producing technically identical devices that look similar to each other. In order to somehow diversify the lineup, they have to invent every time what other additional accessory can please the user: either replaceable panels are included in the kit, or covers of different shapes and sizes. And Alcatel decided not to bother too much. It doesn't matter that the smartphone does not differ from other similar ones, the main thing is that there are many body colors: here you have a pink cover, and white, and blue, and the most "colorful" one - black :). In general, let's get acquainted with the device, because there will surely be admirers of this brand.
Design, dimensions, controls
Appearance Alcatel POP C7 is typical for most inexpensive smartphones on Android: a rectangular shape with sloping edges, inexpressive front and back panels, plastic and ... again plastic. My impression of the C7 was spoiled a little by the fact that the review had a black gadget. I understand that this is a type of "unisex", that is, both "boys" and "girls", but over the past few years, black plastic with soft-touch coating, I personally have already fed up with it. Manufacturers, please come up with something new at last!
Alcatel's dimensions are relatively compact for a smart with a five-inch screen diagonal - 141 x 71.8 x 9.9 mm, although the body is still thick. The "miracle" of technology weighs 162 grams, but in the hand it is felt at all 200. I do not know what increases the weight there: the battery is ordinary, the body is plastic, the screen is a thin piece of glass. However, the smartphone lies well in the hand thanks to the rounded corners, smoothed sides, non-slip surface.
The screen is easily soiled, but fingerprints are removed quickly and easily. On the back side, traces are almost invisible. The display is protected by glass, so after several weeks of use, not a single scratch has appeared on it.
The body is made quite well. I did not notice any creaks or backlashes. Back cover does not bend to the battery, does not crunch when squeezed.
On the front panel, at the top left, there is an indicator of missed events. It blinks or is white. To the right of it is a speech speaker. Its volume is high, low and middle frequencies are heard, the timbre is not the most pleasant - dull, but does not cause irritation, the interlocutor is heard relatively clearly and legibly, you are also heard well. To the right of the speaker are lighting and proximity sensors. They react quickly and work correctly.
At the bottom - touch buttons Back, Home and Menu. Marked with white translucent paint. The buttons have a dim white backlight. The responsiveness is good.
At the bottom - micro-USB, at the top - a standard 3.5 mm jack. There are no elements on the left, on the right, just above the center, there is a power button and a volume rocker. Both are practically recessed into the body, however, they are easy to grope.
A hands-free speaker hidden behind a grill, a camera slightly raised above the body, a second noise canceling microphone and a flash are located on the back of the device.
To open the cover, you need to pry it off at the lower left corner. Top left - microSD slot, below - SIM1 with 2G / 3G support, right - SIM2 with only 2G support.
Comparative sizes:
Alcatel and Samsung Galaxy S4
Display
The diagonal screen of the Alcatel OneTouch POP C7 is 5 inches. Physical size - 63x111 mm, top frame - 14 mm, bottom - 16, right and left - 4 mm each. The resolution brings sadness even to the most positive user - 480x854 pixels, pixelation is not particularly noticeable, but the density cannot be called high - 195 PPI.
The matrix of the screen is made using TFT-LCD technology, the quality during direct viewing on the display is good, but as soon as you move the phone away from you, the contrast decreases, and the colors are inverted towards yourself. I would like to see IPS here.
The capacitive touch layer works out two simultaneous touches. The sensitivity is excellent.

Battery
This model uses a lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery with a capacity of 1900 mAh, 7.22 Wh, 3.8 V.
The manufacturer indicates its data on the "life" of the battery, which I believe, since our results came out approximately the same:
- talk time: up to 12.5 hours (2G), 8.5 hours (3G)
- Standby time: 630 hours (2G), 580 hours (3G)
- operating time in the mode music player: 24 hours
In 720p video playback mode, the device worked for about 5 hours. Average time is about 10-12 hours without active use of 3G.
The device is charged for about 2.5 hours.
In the settings there is an item called "Super Energy Saving". It is very similar to the functions in Htc one M8 and Samsung Galaxy S5. When almost all applications are turned off, the brightness of the matrix backlight decreases and only the basic functions become available to you: SMS, calls, calendar, notebook. In this mode, Alcatel works for about 3-4 days.
Communication capabilities
The smartphone operates in 2G (GSM / GPRS / EDGE, 850/900/1800/1900 MHz) and 3G (900/2100 MHz) cellular networks. There are two SIM cards: one works in 2G / 3G, the other only in 2G.
In stock Bluetooth version 4.0 for file and voice transfer. There is a wireless Wi-Fi connection IEEE 802.11 b / g / n. The device, of course, can be used as an access point (Wi-Fi Hotspot) or a modem.
The device has a GPS. In the "cold" mode, the first satellites are detected in less than one minute, in the "hot" mode - three times faster. The sensitivity is not bad: in the room it finds one or two satellites, near the window - up to 8 almost immediately, on the street the device instantly finds more than 8 satellites. I did not observe any problems with GPS, everything works fine.
Memory and memory card
512 MB installed inside random access memory... On average, a little less than 200 MB of free space. For data storage, 4 GB are allocated, of course, about two are free. There is a slot for a memory card. The maximum size is 32 GB.
Camera
As befits a real "android", the Alcatel C7 has two cameras: the main one is 5 MP, the front one is 0.3 MP. There is a small LED flash.
The quality of the camera is average, it does not affect a high resolution and narrow dynamic range... However, the white balance is correct in most situations, the shooting speed is fast, and the accuracy is good. For an inexpensive phone, it will do just fine.
Both the front and rear cameras have an F2.8 aperture.
The camera can record FullHD video at 30 frames per second, which is good news. There is autofocus. The sound is mono, clear. The "front" camera records video in 640x480 resolution at 20 fps.

Performance and software platform
Most of these devices use a Taiwanese MediaTek chip. Alcatel Smartphone The OneTouch C7 is no exception. It uses the most common among "state employees" in recent times MT6582 chipset: Cortex-A7 processor, 28 nm, 4 cores at 1.3 GHz, Mali-400MP2 graphics accelerator with a clock rate of 400 MHz.
For comfortable operation of the device, this processor is more than enough. There are problems with games, but only with powerful ones such as Asphalt 8. The device does not glitch, does not slow down, it works relatively smoothly.
Brief information about phone parameters (Quadrant test, Antutu test):
The machine has an operating system Google android ancient version 4.2.2. I'm not sure that 4.3 will come out, let alone 4.4. Although I personally don't see any point in them, especially in inexpensive gadgets. Branded shell is essentially missing here. The main screen icon, settings and unlocking of the display have been slightly changed (the “unlock” button “floats” in the circle, which must be shifted to the sides).
