The French company Alcatel, has derived the manufacture of its devices to a Chinese manufacturer, like Nokia and BlackBerry, leaving only the brand as the main attraction. The French firm was one of the first to arrive in Spain when the telephony boom arrived, but shortly after it completely disappeared to focus on Latin America.
But for a few years, the company is trying to regain market share that it lost when it left Europe. To this end, every year it launches a new line of entry and mid-range terminals to try to become an alternative to the all-powerful Asian firms. The new line of Alcatel terminals is now available in Spain.

The company has chosen to name the new range of terminals: Alcatel 3, Alcatel 3C, Alcatel 3L, Alcatel 3 X and Alcatel 3V, a denomination that will not help us when it comes to finding the terminal that can best fit our needs. To try to get rid of doubts, below we show you a table where we can see the main characteristics of each of the Alcatel firm's terminals for this year.
