alcatel Pop C3 - User Reviews

  • this old phone saved me every time the new amazing phones die just because they have more than 24 months by providing me with a stable alternative option till I mange to get a replacement. and still have better signal that all 1k flagships I've had since then.

  • 2019 And still very good.

  • I have been using this phone for a long time, this phone is slow today if you update or install more applications , coz it only has less than 512 ram and 1.3 GHz arm A7 mediatech possessor. Now my battery is almost dead. Touch position is not perfect all time , combined with slow ness it becomes awful. The good of this phone is it's radio plays without ears phone plugs in, display is good although it's lower resolution compared to others.

  • Alcatel Product is good.

  • Now im with this phone and soon i will get xiaomi redmi 3s and im looking forward to it, because tis phone i s veeeeeeery slow.

  • this phone is slower than a GARDEN SNAIL every type i do it lags.

  • Your problem (lake of speed) is for many other kind of phones. because of ram. yes. RAM (512KB) is much less. Try buying smart phones that have (at least) 3GB ram. Don''t accept phones have less than 3GB. the lowest price of smart phones are xiaomi, LetV, LeEcho and so on. good luck.

  • problem in alcatel pop3 (5) touch screen - disable

  • did you download too many apps ? remember that the Ram of the Phone s only 512mb so it means once the ram reached it's limit the apps will crash / automatically close, try to uninstall some of your applications , try to root the phone uninstall bloatwares, which is not usable for your phone to work smoothly

  • Need answer,everytime i use the camera it cannot display the picture after it is been shot

  • This phone really sucks. I have had Alcatel phones in the past and they've been fine, this is the first smartphone of theirs I had and I was bitterly disappointed. It's slow (think dialup), it crashes trying to run applications (particularly games), it freezes, it restarts itself and it's jammed with so many pre-installed apps and 'essential' software that they immediately eat up a great deal of your storage space. At the very least an SD card can be used, except if you go into applications the hone seems to think there is nothing on the SD even if you've moved as many files and apps to it as is possible. Camera is meh. I had mine less than a year, it most recently died a very horrible and sudden death - no idea what happened, but I think the hard drive may have died on me. It started off booting but then not loading when I unlocked it, instead I got spammed with error messages saying everything had stopped. Then it just wouldn't boot. On the positive side, my preschooler is very happy with their new toy.

  • my alcatel one touch has developed som problems. so p,lease neeed adivce. touch screen at the low level does not work.insensitvie.i it does not sense when i touch a number 8 or 0.it insteads opens emergency number. my sim card for mtn got blocked and its asking me for puk pin. and when i try to enter any number it directs me to emergency number.please help me

  • yes can screenshot in this phone just press power button and volume down at the same time

  • Since it has 512MB RAM , dont install application like Clean Master . They stay resident in memory and eat the free RAM . Remove such applications . Instead , hold down the Home button and then press "Close all " to free the RAM . If the phone begins to restart on its own replace the battery . It is a nice budget phone . The sound is good . The memory is little . The camera is not great .

  • press the power key and volume down or up key at same time

  • Hi can someone tell me if its possible to screen shot on this phone?

  • Good price..good design..good performance...worth it!

  • Hi adaptoid03 , I read what you wrote and I want to help you to improve the performance for your phone. the simplest and fastest is to do'' factory data reset'' , and so the phone back to its original state, -then- of course was good but as you put more and more applications it becomes slower and freezes . but this 'erases all data' on the phone so it's best to first get all your data and if you have an ''SD card'' in the phone then you first took it out . for better work phone and a longer life battery, ''delete facebook application'' and after log in through the browser . delete all useless applications that take internal memory, but ones that are in the system ,and can not be explicitly delete, then do ''disable'' ( say - youtube,-google play music,- google play movies, etc.) .about display set on minimum brightness , and do not use for longer than 15-20 min, uninterruptible .at least once a week power off overnight and when the battery reaches the 20-25% put it on the charger and charging up to 95-98 %--not to 100 % because that does not count charge cycles, and better working, greeting.

  • I come from a poorer country, so I really can't afford an iPhone 6 or anything lol I saved up for it and it's fine. Had it for a year now. The only complaints I have are: - Battery drains too fast. Seriously, it can't stay for more than 2 and a half hours, luckily I don't use phones very much so this isn't too big of an issue. - Touch screen is really uncalibrated. I had an alcatel phone before this (no idea what model) and it had a choice to re-calibrate, this one doesn't. You CAN get used to it (I did) but it's still pretty annoying. - Not for games. ok duh if you want to play HD games get a tablet or something. I know that this only plays the most basic games but seriously, I didn't buy this to play Asphalt 8.

  • My first android device, most functions are good but battery too small and touch screen in keyboard mode is unusable, cant find app to recalibrate screen as it is not only wrong but not always the same amount wrong, using browser is not possible and entering passwords,,,,,,,forget it.

  • Pro : Very good as a phone . Fast processor , beautiful colors of the display , great looking , Flight mode Cons : The camera takes photos with not real colors !!! The RAM 512MB is way little and sometimes not enough . Other thoughts : Good choice for the price . As a camera it is awful enough

  • Bad phone I've ever had. Always lagging and the battery is draining too fast

  • Bad phone I've ever had. Always lagging and the battery is draining too fast

  • Crappiest phone I've ever owned. Frustratingly slow, unresponsive, generally rubbish. What the hell Alcatel?!

  • my only problem on these phone is cant read sd card (class 4) i try many sd but dosnt work

  • This phone is good but the battery is not good at all

  • This phone is like a girlfriend! Always drive me crazy!!! It´s still keep frozen, most of the time if the phone is locked and need to be ready to use. So slow phone I don´t remember that I ever had. Alcatel was, is and will be always crap brand!!! Just pretty good is speaker and if you really have good hearphones, you can use at least as MP4 player, that´s it :D :D If you do full reset without back up, you can use it up to one month. Back up doesn´t work very well as in my windows laptop. This phone was for 19 euros and blocked just for my provider, so for this money and for a while is not that bad...

  • I can't update my new system firmware

  • This happened to me too! I was using this phone for months. I was never able to use the GPS. I was never able to use internet via mobile data, or tether properly. There was a serious offset in the touch response. That last one really got to me and I threw it on the wall. You have no idea how satisfying the crunch was. Aleks, I think we got defective units.

  • its better to root ur pop c3 to play games........ive done it...works!!!!!

  • its not for games.i downloaded a boom baech but it come back at the homescreen.oh my god i want to play boom beach.this phone is worst for me.and the other problem is the battety its very fast to low......batt.....

  • I've had this phone for 9 months and I am starting to experience problems with it. it is fine as a temp phone but i wouldn't recommend it as a full time phone.

  • u upgraded to 4.3? by ota or by flashing custom rom?

  • all u pple are confuse but all in all some of u know how 2 use da but others no

  • I just had this phone recently and I use the calender for appointments a lot but I'm not finding it that friendly to use, like how do I copy and paste an appointment to other dates? Can I synchronize from my PC calender to this phone?

  • Avoid this phone! It is slow, unresponsive and has a terrible touch screen. I have been using it for half a year, my nerves could not take it anymore. I smashed it on the ground and pierced it with a screwdriver over and over! Felt good. I have used a lot of phones, this one is the worst by far! If someone gives it as a present, say thanks and never use the damn thing. Your nerves are priceless, unlike this piece of crap called phone. And this is not Alcatel hate, my previous phone was Alcatel One Touch Tribe that I used for 5 years. That is why I bought this one, Alcatel again... worst decision of my life!

  • It's a pretty solid phone for its price. Battery life is not as good, but good enough if you're not a heavy user. Not really suitable for gaming, due to it running older MediaTek processors, and a 512MB RAM capacity. All in all, a good phone for those who only want a simple phone, without all the excessive stuff.

  • Basically it's a very good phone for its price, the only problem is the battery... Take good care of the battery, and if suddenly it doesn't fit in the battery slot, don't use it anymore or it will explode. This happened to me... That morning it was working with no problem, but in the evening it was not. After that all happened quickly, smoke, an orange flash, my battery explodes and suddenly it was burning in flames... I sent an email to Alcatel in order to know what could happen to my battery, but until now, I have no answer from them. So, take care.

  • hi,its an amazing phone and its really cheap,u can play lots of games on it and heavy games like(six guns-beach buggy-modern combat 5-gta san andreas)the touch is very cool,it has a fast internet 3G+ and the network signal of the sim is always full i have upgraded the android version to 4.3 its really a very good phone.

  • so do I . any help please

  • this phone was my first smart phone ever,and since i was a noob using this kind of devices a lot of problems came by.most of the problems was because my bad use.it is a good phone for it's price.now that i have rooted it and puted in a 16 gb ssd memory and closed all the trashed applicatioms the phone goes really fast! not recomended for users who don 't want to spend some time for their phone.it is a good priced phone for hackers and expierienced users.

  • bought it but i don't see the value for the money. it hangs as it boots. you have to keep wiping the cache partition or formatting every now and then..

  • Sorry. My phone is giving me a hard time. Try to switch on the phone but the phone only stops working at the welcoming wallpaper.It freezes there and doesn't go to the menu.Can you please reply.

  • I have some pretty strange issue with this phone! My touch screen is very un-calibrated. For examlpe I have to touch higher than what i actual want to touch. But every touchscreen precision tests I've tried says that my touchscreen is working just fine! I tough that this could be solved buy rooting it and playing a beat with build.prop, or some init.d scripts since, for some strange reasons it does have native support for init.d, but I got nothing. Next thing I could think of was to flash some custom build rom, but When I tried to install CWM custom recovery I got stack with no recovery at all. Now It doesn't want to boot into recovery mod. And on top of everything I cant flash my original recovery, because it give's me error every time I try to do so.

  • No it doesn't I have d fine and it has no front camera

  • this stupid phone doesnt have a front camera!!!

  • How u install custom rom

  • you will have crashes, you need to free ram and there you go with some lag

  • Its a bad phone. Bad camera (both), bad signal, it activates the touchscreen while calling, bad radio FM, slow and full of unwanted software. Worst phone decision ever.

  • I recently updated my firmware on my DL 700, and now I am not able to view my balance, plan MB, or see the the result display before it disappear from the screen. Whenever I enter anything using codes be it credit balance, plan, etc. It just flash on then off before being able to read what it says. Please fix

  • my pop c3 also has 2gb, but i believe that´s the avaliable space to use, the other 2g is used by android O.S.

  • why my alcatel one touch 4033e had only 2gb internal memory

  • As you can see versions 4033A & 4033E have a secondary camera with low features (It is VGA)

  • Does this phone actually have a front facing camera,since I watched some reviews of it on YT and I haven't seen a front facing camera,so I was just wondering if the phone has the selfie camera or not.Can anyone answer pls :D ?

  • I had the same issue. The only thing that worked for me was using OTU (Alcatel software to recover your phone). It took ssome time to download the firmware but all went well. I just loose the ROOT but root it again later with framarrot boromhir exploid.

  • Just got this phone last week and it's amazing. The pictures online really don't do it justice. It looks far better in real life and it's capable of so much much.

  • It has 2GB but you put 4GB.

  • Definitely not for gamers.

  • Yup...anything 8GB or higher..alcatel one touch magic won't read it.

  • Yeah it has an update i downloaded it but can't install . i think because the clockwork mod recovery i will download the stock ROM again to remove it and try again. And i am very happy of this step from Alcatel . hope this update will be good

  • If you want you can install different ROMS on this phone. Search for its model name on cyanogenmod forums.

  • Firmware's recent system update has an error on installation. I've downloaded the file sveral times, whenever I try to install it says an error after less than a minute. Any chance it will be fixed? After all the fails it keeps me sending notifications I should download it again. (It COULD DO with an update, anyways...)

  • u will have to wipe and factory reset data. hold volume up or down and power button together and wait until some options come up then click wipe/factory reset data

  • I can answer my own question after checking the Alcatel website. There are indeed different versions: 4033A, 4033X, 4033D, 4033E. Two have a front camera, two don't. Alcatel, this is not consumer-friendly. If the model is called Pop C3, I expect it to be available in only one version. If one version is missing a feature, then call it a different model, something like C4 or so.

  • I saw a Pop C3 model in a shop today and it didn't have a front cam. Are there different models in different countries, or are the images here from the C5?

  • I have a big problem with my pop c3 it keeps hanging and thats frustrating please help

  • Skype video call is not capable, receives video but cannot transmit. Hangs up, slow when more apps. Camera is no good at low light. front cam not good. All of these observation , maybe because it is cheap

  • Its a good phone according to its price and has good features..

  • I do not really like this phone. First of all, it always hang and applications crash. Second, you cannot install more than 20 applications. But for a basic phone this is good enough. Not the best phone I have been using. :( So disappointed.

  • This is my phone now, I love everything about it except for it's camera, the camera is really not good. It doesn't look 3.15mp or 5mp for me.

  • i will by this phone soon plz tell me if there are a problem and tell me what is his bad things

  • Of coarse

  • can i download clash of clans in this phone?

  • can i download clash of clans in this phone?

  • When I create messages it always freezes and sometimes it turns off by itself

  • thanks :)

  • Download and install: ES Task Manager(Task Killer). Then open it and press: Clean Memory. That will solve the problem.

  • sas you just bought a very cheap phone which you can just earn its price by working maybe a day and you complain too much.. if you want a good camera you better buy DSLR of cameras that is used in making movies... im sure you will not regret the rest of your life....

  • you need to hard reset your device im sure it will work so fine

  • Why my alcatel pop c3 mobile can not be heard on calling someone, rather I can hear that person?

  • i got pop c3 4033d

  • plz i have a problem on this device .. its became so slow after 1 day and i didnt install any thing .. plz help

  • Bought this phone a week ago and I must say I'm a bit disappointed due to the expectations I had for this phone, the 5mp camera could be way better (my bold touch 5mp camera is way better without using the led). In sunlight it is difficult to see display unless you maximize brightness which takes a toll on your battery life, the touch is not the snappiest and the camera action is a bit weird (the way it snaps and stores pic). Everything else is kinda OK maybe a software upgrade can rectify some of these issues, then again it's midrange device. With all said and done I would still recommend this phone for persons who are looking for a reasonable priced smart phone.

  • I wantto buy this phone. Plz for those who own it advice plz plz?? can i go for it??

I tested it the 2 sims after I payed it, but I forgot to ask them to test me the micro sd card as well and the connection with a computer. So when I checked home, the micro sd card is not recognized, it sees it as damaged, and no matter how much I tried, I could not connect it to laptop using usb cable. Beside this, the phone seems ok so far.

  • Of course but i didn't try real racing 3 i tried GTA sa works smooth without lag at max settings but you need greenify or ram optimizer app to work without lag because the ram is low i tried also modern compat 4 and dead trigger 2 which they ram smoothly in my opinion it will run all the android games that released until this day but the problem is th e ram you need to free it up to run the games without lags .

  • Try Kingo Android Root. Its pretty simple: Download, install, plug your phone via usb(enable debugging), wait for driver install, wait for root. Rooting could take anywhere from 2 minutes to about 25 minutes. It may not show any progress at times, but be patient, it will work. Additional info will be given on-screen if you make mistakes. Hardly any chances of you bricking the phone so don't need to worry. Its an official rooting app. Unfortunately I cant add full link here, just go to kingoapp.com and you should be good to go.

  • So far, till date, I find this Pop C3 to be the cheapest smartphone for its specs.

  • For your media needs, try RealPlayer: For killing background apps, try Clean Master:

This is not a scratch resistant, and the 3 buttons does not have a light. But still good for me. Because it is cheap for its specs.

  • guys, how is the battery life of pop c3 ? which set of Alcatel will be better in low budget ?

  • Unninstall any app that you dont use or need. Even facebook can make this phone very slow. Also remove animations or home screen animated backgrounds. They consume a lot of RAM.

  • I bought the Alcatel 4033x recently. Since day one i notice its quite hard to type on this phone, so many typos. It's easier to type on my smaller Xperia Tipo Is there a touch screen calibration problem? Anyone else facing this same problem?

  • No only when charching

  • is it have a LED notification?

  • Yes front face camera is available. You can use skype

  • go to settings language input then click vibration

  • Has it got a front camera? please answer me...

  • Does anyone know if you can disable the (annoying) function of the sensor. If i'm in a text and I move my hand over the top right corner, it immediatly starts calling the person I was texting to.. I really want this disabled...

  • 1. the three android keys (back, home, menu) under the screen DOES NOT light up at all. so if you are in the dark, you have to memorize by heart where these buttons are because there is no backlighting to tell you where they are located. 2. when you receive an incoming message, or, when a call is received but missed (missed call), the LED indicator lamp does NOT blink or lite up. so you have to keep pressing the power button to wake up the screen to see if there are unread messages or missed calls. i guess these two major defects makes this phone unattractive. i dont know what was in the brain of the makers not to input the functions of the above two defects!!!

  • how can i disable the vibration in typing

  • In my phone shutter off switch works good. No sound at all.

  • Does anyone know a good app or another way to disable the camera shutter sound? Switching it off in the camera settings doesn't change anything. I've tried several apps that should do the trick, but the only one working is some kind of spy app that shows no image while taking pictures (not very convenient). I've tried rooting my phone as well, but the process can't be completed.

  • battery drain fast...

  • The phone get 6 out of 10 for me. I love the Android 4.2 OS, plus the multi-tasking capabilities, the speed of the phone is good, doesnt freeze up for anything so far, the battery life is superb and for a heavy user, mine last ALL day,with an 8GB Memory card it is working very well. Hate the fact that the camera's 5MP resolution is not as good as a BB's 5MP resolution along with the lack of flash and the music quality is way too low with the headphones that came with the phone, to achieve the highest quality sound I had to purchase Bluetooth Headphones. A few glitches with notifications. It doesn't light up when your notified even though there is an indicator that should be able to do so. But, overall it is a decent low budget phone that emulates that of a samsung galaxy mini, so you dont have to break the bank for reliable smart phone.

  • You can´t. It just does not work. regards.

  • I downloaded Real Racing 3 (huge download) and it crashed or lag. I have been using memory booster and ram goes better now. I disabled switkey and AVG antivirus, also uninstalled facebook. Now it runs better, almost 225 MB free of RAM, and now I can run FF6 the game.

  • What kind of game

  • Est il possible de changer le clavier Qwerty par Azerty,

  • you can't unlock it, if you won't factory reset. turn of phone, then hold on power and down volume key, menu will appear, then choose factory reset, everything will be erased except sd card

  • Been using this phone for one week: great for the price. I have the 5 MP camera version (whatever, t doesn't have a very good resolution). I had to remove some apps: facebook, dropbox and a couple more. The 512 MB of RAM are capable of running everything BUT not at all once. So now it runs more better and I can I even play FF6 (fast and the furious the game). Memory booster is a must! I always have 226 MB free of RAM. But as I already mention: only using the basic: email, whatsapp, skype, BBM, twitter, instagram, foursquare, reddit and quickPic. The rest I cannot remove them (not rooted). But it seems to work just right. Too bad the camera is not so good and also the lack of flash doestn help. But if you don't want to spend a lot of money getting a Mini S III, this phone is for you (it has almost the same specs of that one). I tried installing other games but they crashed because of the lack of RAM. Android 4.2 runs smoothly.

  • camera is 3.2 that is on the box of the phone it's says 3.2

  • do you know a code I can use if I forget my screen unlock code?

  • try holding power button and volume down key simultenously for screenshot

  • is it worth the money?

  • How to screenshot on this phone? haha

  • U can download a app for massages and with that app u can change any ring tone u like.

  • Using the 4033E,pretty satisfied with it.Its fast for a 512mb RAM phone. Plays most games like asphalt 7 heat,rayman jungle run and dead trigger 2 with no lagg but sg :dead zone,angry birds go and sims freeplay force closes.The camera is not good for 5mp and has no flash.

  • I can't seem to set my own personal notification sound, I add the sound to the notifications folder but it doesnt appear in list when I try to set it as notification sound

  • Very poor picture resolution.....

  • I also experience that problem.

  • The camera is really bad, for how good the phone is. That is my only complaint. Every other thing is great. The crappy cam is really a setback, for me at least...

  • I got this phone from suncellular with cute flip cover and so far so good.

  • Wi-fi suddenly not connecting. Can anybody tell me what is the problem?

  • The phone is a very excellent one, 2 point finger touch - sigh 5mpx camera- no flash- sigh= the camera is just ok games play smooth as long as u dont have too much running task. subwaysurfers- smooth, temple run 2 - smooth, minion rus- lags a little, fifa 14 plays great, front line commando is smooth too. Overall - The phone is a very good buy gets the work done

  • How many fingers can the multitouch support? Has anyone tested?

  • Nice phone.. bought one last week and I'm quite satisfied.. Great screen.. very responsive. Not nice camera, though.. Internet browsing is quite acceptable.. Wondering about using 3G, if it's the signal that is low or the phone itself is slow.. Gaming.. very satisfying.. haven't tried heavy games.. but for light to average games, it works very well.. Battery can last for more than 12hrs with casual gaming, texting, and calling. I recommend it for people with tight budget..

  • This phone is good performance...Can support High Graphic game smoothly...I try GTA sanandreas.....very awesome,no lagging

  • How many ram available? Bcoz is total ram is 512.

  • Got one for my daughter. Good value for money at P 3,990.00 christmas promo at SM North EDSA. There is not much to complain about it for this price range. One big letdown is that the capacitive buttons at the lower part of the screen do not light. I confirmed this with the salesperson.

  • it does support 3G videocall.. (like those of Nokia's) the pre installed calendar syncs with FB birthday which is kinda annoying to me so i disable the calendar app.. there's also a pre installed picture editor.. much like photogrid.. i dont know if its a built in feature of jellybean OS.. there are a lot of pre installed apps which i cannot uninstall.. disable only.. or maybe just my ignorance.. lol cant find menu to change the font style.. the power button and volume keys doesnt look like it will last for a year.. im afraid it will get ripped off soon.. only the power button will awake the phone so u can unlock the phone.. which makes me think that it will be a problem sooner or later.. i hope they made the home button like those of Samsung's..

  • bought it Saturday.. got it this Tuesday morning.. yeah.. the screen looks pretty good.. and sunlight legibility is somewhat better than my Samsung Galaxy W and Xperia Neo.. connected through wifi and i have to update lots of pre installed apps.. doesnt have default 3x4 (T9) keypad so i downloaded Perfect Keyboard (free version).. cant change my message notification though.. not like my old Samsung wherein you copy the mp3 files and paste it in the notifications folder.. it doesnt work that way.. home screens is 5.. cant add or deduct.. much more like those of xperia.. the headset is kinda low.. speaker is good enough but still pretty low.. dual sim: no problem..

  • bought yesterday. very responsive and good performance, it has very high quality screen and you will not believe that it work on only 256k of color. The speaker are very loud, so far so good. but the camera are not so good especially in low light condition. For the phone with this price, its very reasonable.
