Alcatel A3 Plus 3G

At least three new Android smartphones will be introduced by Alcatel at IFA 2017. The unannounced devices have been leaked over the weekend and are likely to make their debut on the market this fall.

The Alcatel A3 Plus comes in two variations (3G and 4G) and sports a 5.5-inch display with HD (720p) resolution. Even though this is a cheap device, it will feature a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor on the 3G model, but the 4G version will have the fingerprint scanner on the front side.

Alcatel A7 XL

Next in line, the Alcatel A7 XL is a huge smartphone with a 6-inch IPS display with HD (720p) resolution and 2.5D glass coating. This one will include a dual camera setup (12-megapixel + 2-megapixel cameras).

Finally, Alcatel U5 HD will be the most affordable of the three. It will feature a 5-inch HD (720p) display and ships with Android 7.0 Nougat operating system right out of the box.

Not much is known about the chipsets and amount of memory inside Alcatel's smartphones, but we're most likely learn more about them in less than two weeks.
