TP-Link Neffos C5A specs review – Low-End 3G Smartphone With 5-inch Display

TP-Link, one of the world’s leading Wi-Fi providers has embarked upon another smartphone journey, and this time the theme of the trip is TP-Link Neffos C5A. The smartphone is really a low-end smartphone from any angle you want to check it out in. From the processor to the battery life to the display and on and on and on. It’s good to see tech companies trying out something different from the original business goal that made them known in the market. So, let’s just see what TP-Link Neffos C5A has in its storehouse.

Design & Display 

TP-Link Neffos C5A has a plastic body material which contributed to its 159 g weight. Just like the basics, the smartphone has its dedicated keys (volume keys and power button) at the right side while the rear consists of a single camera, LED flash, neffos logo and TP-Link emblem. Below the TP-Link emblem, the speaker grille takes a slot. The top bezel houses the usual earpiece, front camera, ambient light sensor and this time a LED flash while the bottom bezel makes itself the home to the soft Android navigation keys. The 3.5 mm audio jack appears on the top while the micro USB port appears at the bottom of the device. Here are the dimensions of the Gray-colored smartphone: 145.5 mm length x 72.6 mm width x 9.64 mm thickness.

At the front, a poor 2 MP camera snaps selfies and brightens them with the help of a single LED flash. HDR, f/2.0 aperture, panorama, face detection, continuous shot, auto focus, geo tagging and CMOS sensor are available features on the camera.
