Alcatel Idol 2S Review of The Pros And Cons

Picture of the Alcatel Idol 2S, by Alcatel

We are tempted to say that the Idol 2S is the Idol 2's LTE flavor and leave it at that, but its HD screen (the Idol 2's is only qHD), 1.2GHz quad-core processor (Idol 2: ever-so-slightly faster at 1.3GHz), and 1.3-megapixel additional camera (the Idol 2 has 2 megapixels in front) gave us pause. After all, the Idol 2S also has no dual-SIM variants and it is a teensy bit thicker (7.4mm instead of 7.3). Having said that, we are also not tempted to think that Alcatel's Idol 2S is idol-material (or even premium), despite some of these small upgrades (and some curious downgrades). This is thanks in part to its 8-megapixel camera, 1GB RAM, and 8GB memory - which seem to practically scream mid-level. But we do believe the brushed metal coating and HD sound are nice bonuses.
