Moreover, the price truly justifies the specifications of Symphony V145. Surely, first-time users of smartphones will enjoy making use of this device.
Design and Display of Symphony V145
Like many other budget friendly smartphones below the $100 USD mark, the Symphony V145 is predominantly made of plastic body. Its dimensions are 72 x 142.8 x 10.5 mm. It is scratch resistant but not water resistant. The device comes in black, champagne, and blue colors.
Additionally, the display screen size is 5 inches and it has resolution of 480 x 845 pixels. Accordingly, the display type is TN capacitive touch screen. There are 16 million colors to make the display elegant as can be. The pixel density found on Symphony V145 is 194 ppi, while the screen to body ratio is 66.66 percent. Aspect ratio is 16:9.
Camera Features
The camera department is a little poor. There is a 5 MP rear camera which is able to serve only the needs of naïve teenagers. The video performance is a sultry 720p@30fps which comes around with FHD recording.
Other nice features that may seem to detract from the poor megapixels are LED flash, Samsung GalaxyCore, auto focus, HDR, continuous shooting, digital zoom, exposure compensation, face detection, and more.
The selfie camera to the front is also 5 MP which comes without flash capabilities. However, there is the f/2.8 aperture.
Hardware and Software
Symphony V145 runs on Android 8.1 Oreo Go Edition to make things operate smoothly with the desired speed. Also powering the device is Spreadtrum SC9832E chipset (S0C). In addition, this works with Quad-core 1.4 GHz CPU 4-Cores. The architecture found herein is 32-bit, and the GPU is ARM Mali-400 2-Cores.
Symphony V145 Storage Capacity
There is a meager 1GB of RAM with memory speed 533 MHz and internal storage of 8GB. Furthermore, the internal storage can be expanded up to 128GB with a microSD card. If the user is one who likes to download games, and store movies on the Symphony V145, having a microSD card is inevitable.
Network and Connectivity in Symphony V145
Things are premium for network connectivity in this device because there is 2G for GSM, 3G for WCDMA, and 4G for LTE. Though Symphony scaled down in other areas, the team didn’t take away the 4G experience from versatile users.
Other features of connectivity in Symphony V145 are Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, hotspot, microUSB 2.0, GPS, A-GPS, GLONASS, 3.5 mm jack, and other features.
Battery Life
Symphony V145 is empowered with a Li-ion 2200 mAh removable battery. I have a grouse with this because this is a 4G network smartphone that will consume huge battery power when running at 4G. Something like at least 2500 mAh would have done better.
Price and Availability of Symphony V145
Wherever you find this device online, you may find it costs about $60 to $75 USD. Symphony V145 was announced in October 2018 and released in the same year. Hence, anyone could purchase it online.
