The Alcatel One Touch 531 is the new middle-class model from France. The most noticeable feature of the Alcatel One Touch 531 is big color display with 4096 colors and a resolution of 128 x 141 pixels. The display of the Alcatel One Touch 531 has good contrast and is clearly readable.
The menu of the Alcatel One Touch 531 is easy to use, with a four-way navigation-key. Unfortunately the "OK"-key is below the navigation-key on the Alcatel One Touch 531.
In the middle would have been better, but the manufacturer must have had his reasons.
The Alcatel One Touch 531 comes with a Li-ion battery and has a standby time of 230 hours and talk time of 4 hours.
The Alcatel One Touch 531 is light, weighing only 95 g, and very handy, measuring 116 x 47 x 20 mm.
Being silver-colored the Alcatel One Touch 531 has a very elegant appearance, and the finishing is good, too. The data-functions of the Alcatel One Touch 531 fulfill every wish. W@P-browser version 1.2.1, infrared-interface and class 8 GPRS should be sufficient for most users.
One game is pre-installed on the Alcatel One Touch 531 and it has space for one more to download. Of course the selection of polyphonic ringer tones can be increased in the same way.
Another highlight of the Alcatel One Touch 531 is the option of voice-control dialing and the memo-function.
The Alcatel One Touch 531 is a dual-band phone featuring an organizer, alarm clock and vibratory alarm. If the Alcatel One Touch 531 seems familiar to you it's because the Alcatel One Touch 531 is identically constructed as the Mitsubishi M320.
When talking on the Alcatel One Touch 531 there is no static or other noise, but a clear and clean conversation. Reception is good.
With the Alcatel One Touch 531 you are well served. A good middle-class mobile phone from Alcatel.
