alcatel Hero 2 - User Reviews

  • Good phone except battery life

  • Could anyone confirm if the stylus pen of this phone has HOVERABLE pointer?

  • The only problem with Alcatel is the poor camera compare to Samsung or other mobile brands try to compare and see the big difference

  • Does anyone know where I can buy this phone?

  • is it available in europe?

  • Of course, i do appreciate the phone but very unfortunately to me it fall and break from my hand pls how do i get the touch screen or the calibrator? waiting for ur respond

  • Does anyone know where I can by any chance purchase this device? Would really appreciate it, thanks😄.

  • Good phablet. Owned one from last year February till January this year when it broke. I have been waiting for Alcatel to give us an updated version of this hero but its in vain. I need something with a big battery "6.0" Display 3gb and above and over 32Gb RAM. I found all these on Samsung A9.

  • Excellent phone gave it to my father.....Unfortunatelly Alcatel provide poor update services...It has good CPU but probably will stay on KitKat forever.....It has the potential to run lolipop with no issues.... That´s why I prefer Lenovo over Alcatel

  • The Phone is a great choice, toltal value for money .. once you buy the phone you will be talking about it to everyone and impressing them !! BUT once you start facing any kind of service support, your frustration will start ... First you will not be able to find the service station easily, then once you reach there you will be asking to leave the phone with them for indefinite period .. you might be away with your phone for not days, not weeks but MONTHS !! .. my phone has been with the service center for 2 months and there is no concrete reply from their side !! So think before you buy !

  • I want to buy this phone soon, but I haven't decided yet. Is the lg g3 better phone, than alcatel hero 2? anyone could help me, thanks !!!!

  • Superb Phone.Excellent. I realy like his specification. I have wish to upgrade it Lolipop. Some one can help me ?

  • state that Hero 2 SoC is MediaTek MT8392, which i didnt find any match in mediatek official web.kindly help me anyone!

  • Alcatel have improved their phones to level with other brand like Huawei, Sony, Samsung and many frackin brand out there. faceplam for my english ;D peace

  • Where would one even buy this phone? I mean online. Amazon, Aliexpress, Focalprice etc all come up blank. Even eBay has jack.

  • It's chubby. I tried it yesterday in a shop. They really need to release an upgrade to fix the issues. It's a software issue. But I bought it because the screen is super awesome and it's very cheap compared to the features!

  • Look!I wanna know if its nice or no, I don know whata buy??

  • Let's just say I've got enough brains to figure out that Alcatel phones let me do what I wanted a phone to do for me without overpending on an overpriced and overhyped Samsung or Iphone. Is all about customer satisfaction. Otherwise I woudn't buy an Alcatel product one after the other. If I may add, Alcatel has improved a lot since I started buying their products. 5 years ago I would notice only a few customers would bother to take a look at their kiosks. I thought they deserve more attention back then. Now I am delighted to see more people troop to Alcatel kiosks and patrionizing their products. That's because they make quality products at very affordable. Need I say more? Oh, I just can't help but recall an instant a colleague made a remark on my Alcatel phone, implying that her Samsung phone is superior. I thought-'Just because its a Samsung? '. But in terms of performance, design, camera, etc. I know that my Alcatel is definitely superior. Period.

  • so weting for relese iam intrested to this product

  • its big

  • i like it. where can i have it. i am in Cameroon

  • i had a bad experience with alcatel hero but i wait hero 2 i love alcatel so much

  • Keyrootmaster

  • I am not agree with you... I love alcatel company... A receive answers at all the trubles i had... KitKat for idol2 it's ganna be at the end of this week because it took a lotle longer to optimize perfectly... I better wait for a quality soft than to have a bad soft like on samsung that crash every day and consume a lot of energy

  • why yr society don't bay phone in algeria

  • I don't thing you gonna happy with the various company in the market if they're caring about customers and don't care about their products quality. I think you have to re-thing in that..

  • It was some problem with Android application and it was not working. But I still think it is better smart phone with its battery life, quality and stylish. Now still need Hero2 in my hand. Please in Cambodia in cheaper price cuz many students need it.

  • Can anyone tell me about the stylus' quality? I have the first version of OTC and the stylus is not working well. Thanks!

  • Never buy Alcatel product's. They dont care about his customers at all. Trust me. I have Idol2 and wait for update more than half year. They dont respond on mail's and so on. Very bad company and customer support. Never again Alcatel.

  • I think it will have an excellent camera and good performance with nice design.I want it.

  • With outdated features and technology this is probably the worst products you could ever go with. For starters let's discuss the "one touch fierce" which is anything but fierce with a horrible 5.0 megapixel camera and a laggy quad core processor. Even on a tight budget i recommend skipping these products and saving for a better smart phone

  • I can't even believe you would purchase this product or any product from this cheap offbrand company and also about how you're so avid about this company's products, have you never heard of the Samsung galaxy s5 or even the iPhone?

  • looks cool I want one

  • I want hero 2

  • Wrongful alcatel I think there will be support for lollipop 5.0 , eventhough they know they are being welcomed by many users in the world , so much so that could not support in latin america to update kikat

  • will Hero 2 support 5.0 or not??

  • pls guy/ladies i own an alcatel OT 8008x and i need help on how to root it........pls do inbox me on a step by step process on how to go about it plssssss

  • Same here. My Idol still works perfectly since I bought it last year. Im also satisfied with the Pop C7. I also want to buy the Pop C9 and Hero. Then there is now the Hero2 which I hope will be available soon. Im totally hooked on Alcatel. I just want to buy all of their phones!

  • One of the best phones Alcatel. Great job!!

  • The best ever flagship devicr ever

  • I have read the reviews of this phone in NDTV cell guru and it appears to be the best phone better than Note 3 and all of the persons here would be glad to know that it would only cost you $280 in US and in India it will cost you 13500 in rupees

  • damn, i went and bought the alcatel X+, i had no idea they made this phablet, its basically the X+ but with a 6 inch screen instead of 5 and its got stereo sound and not mono

  • You are totally right man....

  • Alcatel products are superior in performance than other phone in india. They need to be aggressive in marketing. They have to encourage and plan for Online sale in India.

  • Great Innivation: Wow alacatel you have made it to compete wih other smartphone...kudos!

  • Wow, this could be the phone killer of other smartphones out there...kudos alcatel..great innovation..

  • finally the exact type of phone we have all been waiting for!
