TCL's latest smartphone lineup, the Alcatel 5, 3 and 1 series, has just been unveiled at MWC today, and taking its flagship position is its mid-range spec'd Alcatel 5 with Face Key feature. The Alcatel 5 sports a near bezel-less 5.7 inch 18:9 aspect ratio IPS display with an HD+ (1440 x 720) screen resolution. The front-facing camera, however, packs a dual-camera 13MP + 5MP set-up and also includes front-facing flash. The device not only employs a rear fingerprint sensor but also includes a facial recognition feature that Alcatel calls ‘Face Key’. The Alcatel 5 is now available in its Metallic Black and Metallic Gold for $282.76 or around Php14k when converted to peso. Alcatel's the latest one we've seen that embraced the Android OS and it looks like it's doing something good for them. The one we have here, an Alcatel One Touch Blaze 990, will be launched in August 4 with an introductory price of Php9,999. The Blaze 990 has a slightly larger screen size of 3.5" (diagonally) compared to the usual 3.2" we're seeing in other smartphones in the same category and price point. The Alcatel OT Blaze 990 would have been an attractive Android handset had they brought it earlier this year.
