Alcatel unveils the OneTouch Flash phablet in Thailand
The latest Alcatel smartphone to be announced is the OneTouch Flash. It was introduced in Thailand for the first time, at a special event.
The Flash comes with a 5.5-inch 720p IPS touchscreen, a 13 MP rear camera with LED flash, and a 5 MP front snapper for selfies.

It's powered by the MediaTek MT6592M chipset, which features a 1.4 GHz octa-core Cortex-A7 CPU, aided by 1GB of RAM and 8GB of built-in storage (expandable via microSD).
3G networks are supported on both the 900 and 2100 MHz bands, but there's no 4G support here, though you do get dual-SIM functionality. The Alcatel OneTouch Flash runs Android 4.4.2 KitKat, and it has a rather beefy 3,200 mAh battery. Its dimensions are 152.1 x 76.2 x 8.1 mm.
The price of the new phablet hasn't been announced yet. Apparently that will be unveiled on September 8.
The rather ridiculous promo video that Alcatel made for the OneTouch Flash can be seen above, with the new handset taking on a superhero role and fighting with a generic-looking device called "Note". That actually looks a lot like the Xiaomi Redmi Note, but it seems to feature the battery capacity of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo. So perhaps Alcatel thinks it's these two phablets that will be the main competitors of the OneTouch Flash.

Do not buy this phone. You are constantly bombarded with apps you don't want. They install themselves all the time and you have no way of keeping them out. You have to uninstall every day.
