Alcatel announces the One Touch Idol X smartphone with Android 4.2 and a 5-inch 1080p display

Alcatel takes pride in a colorful approach to design, much like the latest Nokia devices, and has also managed to cram everything into a razer thin 7.1mm body. It has also achieved an edge-to-edge design for the display and has pre-loaded what seems like almost stock Android.
Under the hood, the Alcatel One Touch Idol X is powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core processor, sporting 16GB of internal storage and a 2,000mAh battery. The camera is a 13-megapixel one (if we trust the official press release).
Looking at the connectivity package, 4G LTE is notably absent which basically makes this more of an international device and less ready for a US launch.

You just listed this as Samsung One Touch Idol X in your list of phones. Not that surprised though, this is PhoneArena.

The front looks like to iPhone and the rear to Nokia Lumia 720

Why? Because it's a screen with black top and bottom bezels? It's looks like about a hundred other devices from the front.

The front looks nothing like the iphone and the back looks more like the htc one x not the lumia. But overall it still has its own distinct personality

13mp camera? The top photo says 8.0mp on the back. Looks like a great phone if it's priced right

I am new here but I just want to let you know that one of the articles on the website has a SAMSUNG ONE TOUCH IDOL? I am just confused? Or is a typo? Thanks. :D

Yeah, it's just a typo. This isn't a Samsung device, though it would be nice if it was!

A typo like 'An' for 'and' or 'her' for 'here' and the likes are considerable...
'Samsung' for 'Alcatel'? Seriously???

Yeah, I have to agree with your statement. But I can never see Samsung making a design like this.

judging a phone's build quality without even having used one nor seen one in person pretty much seems to be the mindset of everybody here rofl

No, they just judge it by the materials used or which brand the phone comes from. Unfortunately, they ignore everything else like gap clearance and wasted space.

Alcatel seem now to mean Business at last,as they used to produce Cheaper phones,but with economy struggling this could be a very popular smartphone from Alcatel

There's something very cheesy and toy-like about the phone in the image. I'm all for colorful phones, I am getting sick of black and white. Gimme a blue HTC One and I'll pay in a heartbeat.

worst name ever. 1 touch is a diabetic testing device. The X is symbolic of HTC one x and stole the Thunder of Motorola. An idol is just blaspheme.

It would be a nice mid range phone with a good camera and phone design

That is actually a really nice design. Best one in my opinion after the Xperia Z.

Sexy phone. Too bad about the lack of LTE (and apparently no micro SD slot), because it certainly is a looker.
