Alcatel 1S, Alcatel 1L and Alcatel 3L: camera up to 48 megapixels and Android 11 in three new cheap mobiles

Alcatel has announced three new terminals during the CES 2021, repeating more or less the play from last year. Are three cheap terminals, from the 109 euros that the cheapest costs to 149 euros for the most complete.

Thus arrive the new Alcatel 1S, Alcatel 1L and Alcatel 3L, which this time do not include the year in their name, for further confusion. They belong to the entry range, counting the most complete of them, the Alcatel 3L, with a 48 MP triple camera.

Alcatel 1S, Alcatel 1L and Alcatel 3L data sheet

Alcatel 3L

The Alcatel 3L is the most complete model that the company has presented, although it is still located within the entry range. With an unspecified 1.8 GHz MediaTek processor, the terminal has a version with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, expandable by means of a MicroSD.

The Alcatel 3L screen has HD + resolution and a diagonal of 6.52 inches, including in its upper part a notch in the shape of a drop where the front camera is located, with 8 megapixels of resolution.

Behind, we have a triple camera with 48 megapixel main sensor, a 2 MP macro sensor and a third 2 MP sensor for portrait mode. The battery is 4,000 mAh, without mention of fast charging. The terminal has a physical button for the Google Assistant and includes the fingerprint reader behind.

Alcatel 1S

On the other hand we have the Alcatel 1S, which is very similar to the Alcatel 3L that we saw before, although a little cheaper. It mounts the same eight-core MediaTek processor at 1.8 Ghz, but with a version with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage, expandable via microSD.

The screen maintains the same characteristics of its brother, that is, a diagonal of 6.52 inches and HD + resolution, also topped by a drop-shaped notch. The difference is that the front camera is 5 megapixels in this case.

A fundamental difference between the Alcatel 1S and the Alcatel 3L is in the camera. It is also a triple combination with 2 MP sensors for portrait mode and macro photography, but with a 13 megapixel main sensor.

On drums, we have again a capacity of 4,000 mAh and no mention of fast charging support. The fingerprint reader is also included on the back and a physical button to call the Google Assistant.

Alcatel 1L

Finally, we have the most modest of the three: the Alcatel 1L. This model reduces the diagonal of the screen slightly, being 6.1 inch although with the same HD + resolution. Also with notch, which incorporates the 5 megapixel front camera.

In this case, it is a terminal with Android 11 Go Edition, which incorporates an unspecified quad-core processor and a version with 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage, expandable via a MicroSD.

In the photographic field, the Alcatel 1L incorporates a dual camera with a 13 megapixel main sensor and a 2 megapixel bokeh sensor. The battery is a bit smaller than its siblings, with a capacity of 3,000 mAh. The terminal also has a fingerprint reader, on the back, and a physical button to invoke the Assistant.

Versions and prices of the Alcatel 1S, Alcatel 1L and Alcatel 3L

The Alcatel 1S, Alcatel 1L and Alcatel 3L will go on sale between February and March, in “select markets around the world.” All three are available in blue and black (gray, in the case of the Alcatel 1L), with this official price:

• Alcatel 3L 4 + 64 GB, 149 euros.

• Alcatel 1S 3 + 32GB, 109 euros.

• Alcatel 1L 2 + 32GB, 135 dollars, 111 euros to change.
