The larger the screen, the larger the case. But in addition to the width and height of the hull, its thickness is important. At Alcatel Idol 3C the thickness of the case is 7.9 mm, which turns out to be thick enough, maybe you will not be comfortable holding such a device in your hand.

Processor and Internal Memory

The smartphone performance is affected by a lot of factors, and even more so on the android-smartphone, where the developer of the Android operating system and the device manufacturer are absolutely different companies and each develops with its strategy in the market. As a result, in the smartphone you get a hodgepodge: it′s like a “clean” Android, but with a shell from the manufacturer; as though only the necessary applications, but also many unnecessary from the manufacturer. Very often Android-installed apps by default, which you do not even use, are still running and working, they occupy part of the RAM and processor time of your smartphone. This slows the work of other applications and the battery charge is wasted.

So, in Alcatel Idol 3C is installed 8-core processor on the chipset Snapdragon 615. As for RAM, the memory module is used here 2 GB.

You can store your photos, videos, music and applications both on the built-in smartphone memory, and on memory cards microSD up to 256 GB. You are only available 16 GB built-in memory, so you need to be more careful about what you store on the device.
