Description

TCL Optus X Smart 5056I — 16GB 5.5" 4G Android Smartphone

A professionally refurbished, unlocked 4G LTE Android smartphone with a 5.5-inch HD (1280 x 720) touchscreen, 16GB of storage with microSD expansion and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 quad-core processor. A simple, affordable handset for calls, messages and light apps, covered by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty with free standard AU shipping.

Key Benefits

  • Large 5.5" HD screen: A 1280 x 720 touchscreen gives comfortable room for messages, maps, email and photos.
  • 16GB storage, expandable: 16GB of built-in storage with a microSD card slot for adding space for photos, music and files.
  • 4G LTE data: Supports LTE bands 1, 3, 7, 28 and 40, including band 28 (700MHz) for coverage in regional areas.
  • Unlocked handset: Not tied to a contract, so you can choose a SIM plan that suits you (check calling support with your carrier - see FAQ).
  • Simple and familiar Android: Android 6.0 Marshmallow with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and assisted GPS for everyday essentials.
  • Front and rear cameras with flash: Take quick everyday snaps and photograph documents or receipts.

Performance in Use

The Optus X Smart is a straightforward everyday phone. The Snapdragon 210 quad-core processor with 1.5GB of RAM handles calls, SMS, a web browser, email and maps comfortably, and the 5.5-inch HD display makes text easy to read. It suits someone who wants a big, simple screen rather than the latest apps and games.

It works well as a spare or backup handset, a first phone, a work phone for calls and messages, or a dedicated device for a single task such as navigation or music. The microSD slot lets you add storage cheaply if photos and music start to fill the 16GB.

Because it runs Android 6.0, some current apps from the Google Play Store no longer support it, and it is not suited to heavy multitasking or gaming. Check that the specific apps you rely on support Android 6.0 before choosing this model.
