The Alcatel 1S (2021) is a good phone by any standards, and exceptional for its price. It functions perfectly for all normal requirements, the cameras work well, and it even has some features not present in more expensive devices (NFC, GPS, face & fingerprint ID, photography tweaks). Those who need lightning-fast RAM for gaming and such will have to pay several hundred pounds more but, as a phone that's also good for videos, social media and everyday apps, it's outstanding value.

Excellent phone for the price. Very easy to set up and use. Suits a 65-year old like myself very well. Screen is very clear for my rather poor eyesight and response to keyboard is very good.

The only reason it does not get five stars is the battery has started to drain faster. This was after heavy usage for a few months though. The phone itself performs flawlessly and is fast fast fast compared to my old Nokia 5 which cost four times the price of this.

Very disappointed in the battery life. The best I'm getting is about 36 hours. For what it does it is a rather heavy phone although the bigger screen is an advantage, suppose you can't have your cake an eat it. I previously had an Alcatel 3 (2019) which is the only Android phone I can compare it with having had Windows phones prior to that. I figured the Alcatel 1 would be an upgrade for me but owing to the battery life I wish I'd looked at an alternative.

An excellent phone at a great price as good if not better than more expensive makes
