Laugh after the word "shovel!". Highscreen Alpha GTX Review
The smartphone manufacturing industry can now offer a device for almost any need. For example, for lovers of tourism or sports - dust and moisture-proof, for girls - pink, with rhinestones, for aesthetes - glass-aluminum, for small ones with one button, for steep ones - with a bunch of bells and whistles, with cool cameras, sound and so on. But here, a factor such as screen size (namely, the diagonal) got into the trends. And the owners of poor vision and big hands rejoiced. Yes! Hello! I would have a phone with a large display. Please get! Highscreen Alpha GTX. 5.7 inches display. And let no one leave offended!

The box is already familiar to me on other Heiskrin devices.
It is made of cardboard, not painted. But it has information about the characteristics of the smartphone.
Inside the box are: a headset with vacuum headphones, a charger (1000 mA), a USB-MicroUSB cable, a guarantee, a film on the screen and the giant itself - Highscreen Alpha GTX.
The first thing that can be said about a smartphone is a shovel. Frankly, I'm not used to calling big smartphones shovels. Just more than other classmates. But even here my quite often received charges about the size of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - and that one is smaller than the GTX comrade. However, it should be said, in my big hand the device fits and lies quite conveniently to itself.
Headset and charging - ordinary and simple. If I have no questions for the charger (well, no design, it doesn’t matter), then I would recommend changing the headset right away. The sound is below average, and it looks flimsy. But I can say a special thank you to the manufacturers for the film on the screen.

So let's go on to look at the exterior. We already understood that the Alpha GTX is big enough, but you shouldn’t limit it to that.
The back (no, this is the back!) Is a glossy smooth plastic with a color for textured metal. It is difficult to describe in words. But somewhere I have already seen it.
At the top there is a headphone jack, a microUSB connector (charge, sync) and a power button (lock). There is a big minus in this decision. After all, the size of the smartphone - its length is more than 16 centimeters - and this means that it is impossible to take and unlock with one hand even for a mutant (such as me). And you have to intercept the device comfortably to unlock, then - again intercept for work.
At the bottom there is a microphone hole and that's it.
On the back of the smartphone is a 8 MP camera, a flash, a second microphone (a good location for recording video), the Highscreen logo and a loud speaker slot.
On the left side - the volume rocker,
On the right side - nothing at all.
On the front side - the front camera, the LED (two states - green and red), the speaker.
Of course, on the front side there is still a huge 5.7 inch display with HD resolution (1280 * 720 pixels).
Someone is now whistling and screaming "Fu, not enough!". And I will say a simple truth - the screen is good, there is no grain. Everything looks natural and high quality on it.
Here is a picture of the display.
Viewing angles at the display, though not the maximum, but sufficient for comfortable work.
Under the display - touch keys "back", "home", "menu". They have a soft white backlight.
Under the back cover, a couple of surprises sheltered for us. This is a 3000 mAh battery, a slot for microSD, as well as two SIM card slots.
Sim cards, fortunately for many - miniSIM.
The radio module in the smartphone is one. High-speed Internet is available only for one of the SIM cards (its slot is specially marked).
The iron component of the device is a quad-core Mediatek MT6589 processor, 1 GB of RAM and 4 GB of internal memory (I recall, there is support for memory cards).
I can not say that the smartphone is hardware based on hardware, but Android 4.1.2 installed on it does not even think to slow down. Everything works as expected.
There are almost no add-ons for Android.
From what I found:
- the ability to change the color of the elements (in standard Android is blue) to yellow, green, red;
- another camera interface (with support for HDR, slow and fast video recording, etc.).
Speaking of the camera: a normal sensor, only weakly sensitive to light (that is, it is almost impossible to photograph in the dark) - see examples.
- emoticons were added to the message program and the design was slightly changed
- added some applications (for example, file manager, wireless device manager)
- in addition, there is a handy thing - on and off on a schedule.
Synthetic tests produce a result that should be expected. Nothing extraordinary, everything is good and clear.
Screen - 5 multi-touch.
Separately, I want to say about the battery. And this is a big plus of this device. 3000 mAh allows you to charge the device every 3-4 days at 5 hours of the screen. In other words - the usual work, including on the Internet, with 3G, Wi-Fi, auto brightness enabled.
Advantages of this smartphone:
+ Nice big display
+ Great battery
+ Nice design
+ Normal performance
+ Film on screen included
By cons I'll take:
- Inconvenient location of the power button
- Poor headset included
- The camera is sensitive to light
Summarizing, I will say that I am a lover of spades. And I liked the Higscreen Alpha GTX and I’m happy to use it as the main smartphone. The only BUT - I'm constantly afraid to drop it on the floor - because when unlocking, you have to intercept the device high enough. Well, what am I? The device is good and convenient. Yes, and enjoy the benefits of the Internet and high technology on a large display, I have become accustomed.
The price of the device starts with a mark of 10530 rubles (see Yandex.Market )
