Alcatel will be present during this Mobile World Congress held in Barcelona and which has different surprises waiting for us. Alcatel has not wanted to wait for the start and shows us all its arsenal. Two of the teams it will show are the two tablets lower the Alcatel 1T range. This new range consists of two models: one with a 7-inch screen and the other with a 10-inch screen. And, in case it still does not attract your attention to continue reading, we will tell you that neither version exceeds 100 euros. So, on the one hand we will have the Alcatel 1T 7 and on the other the Alcatel 1T 10.
Tablets are a good resource for those users who need a larger screen than a mobile to perform some tasks, but do not really need a laptop. Alcatel will offer two new solutions this year in this sector and below we detail what they will offer:
Alcatel 1T 7: low-end at a good price and updated to the latest Android
The first one has a 7-inch diagonal screen and a maximum resolution of 1.024 x 600 pixels. That is, we are facing a very basic tablet, but that will allow us to enjoy web browsing, watch videos (1080p at 30 fps), check social networks or answer our pending email.
On the other hand, inside we will have a 4 core processor process that operates at 1,3 GHz frequency and is accompanied by a 1GB RAM and a space to store 8 GB files. Of course, the Alcatel 1T 7 has a microSD card slot of up to 128 GB. As for the camera, this model has a 2 megapixel rear sensor, while on the front - and focused on video calls - we will have a VGA webcam.
Meanwhile, in the software part, Alcatel has not wanted to gamble and is betting on the latest version of Android on the market; that is to say: The Alcatel 1T 7 has Android 8.1 Oreo. And this is a plus to take into account if you want to get an entry-level Android tablet. Finally, this model is resistant to dust, water and shocks. And its battery has a capacity of 2.580 milliamps that ensures a range of up to 7 hours. The price of this tablets part of $69,99.
Alcatel 1T 10: productive model with more accessories and better technical specifications
On the other hand we have the model with a screen more focused on being able to work outside the home or office. This is the Alcatel 1T 10. This version has 10,1 inch HD screen in diagonal. This will make working or our leisure time more satisfying than the previous version.
Inside we will have the same processor as its younger sister (MediaTek 8321 quad-core 1,3 GHz) and its RAM memory will also be one GB. Yes, the space of internal storage grows up to 16 GB and you can also use microSD cards with up to 128 GB of space.
As for the photographic part, the Alcatel 1T 10 will have two 5 megapixel sensors (rear and front) to get somewhat sharper images, especially in video calls, something that is very fashionable in remote work. It is also a robust model and like its younger sister, it is capable of withstanding water and dust - it is IP52 certified. In addition, it is versatile and offers children mode to become a true tablets familiar.
Likewise, the battery of this model also grows in capacity and has 4.000 milliamps which translates, according to the company, into an autonomy of 8 hours of video playback. Therefore, you will be able to endure a whole day of work without problems. On the other hand, the Alcatel 1T 10 also has the Android 8.1 Oreo version to be compatible with all Google Play apps and offer you the latest platform experience.
Finally, and optionally, Alcatel also offers the possibility of getting a case that incorporates a Bluetooth keyboard so that your writing of texts is much more comfortable than usual. And is that typing long periods of time on the screen can damage your fingers. The price of this Alcatel 1T 10 is 99,90 euros and will be available by the middle of this year 2018.
