With the entry-level smartphone market as competitive as ever in South Africa, the Alcatel Onetouch Pixi 3 (4.5) is slightly under-specced to be a real contender.
PROS
Solidly constructed, Well sized, Great price point
CONS
Very little onboard storage, Dull display, Slow processor
VERDICT
With so many well-built, solidly specced entry level devices available at the moment, the Pixi 3 feels a little outgunned. On the display, camera and design aspects, Alcatel has been able to do a good job for a device that only costs R900. For me though, the Pixi 3 feel far more sluggish than I had anticipated. As a result, it's a device that feels off the pace. The only thing counting in its favour at the moment, is the fact that it costs less than R1k, just remember the extra cost of a microSD card.
