For obvious reasons, on the Internet we much more often come across reviews of flagship Android smartphones that occupy the upper price niche, but budget representatives of a large family with a green robot on board receive much less attention.
In fact, budget Android is the ideal choice for the practical person looking for the best balance of features and price, and there are no alternatives. The motley feature phones do not compete even with the simplest Androids - at the same price, touch displays are rare on feature phones, the operating systems look and work as if the late nineties have remained with them forever, and, of course, the lack of a sensible application store. Those very applications thanks to which the capabilities of a mobile Android device expand indefinitely. Android has Google Play with millions of applications. Who else can boast of such a software base? Only the Apple App Store, but this company has its own understanding of a budget device. It is generally accepted that the budget smartphone from Apple is considered to be the model of the smartphone before last, that is, at the moment, it is the iPhone 4S with an average price of 22 thousand rubles in Yandex Market. Somehow not very budget-friendly.
Today we will tell you about a full-fledged Android smartphone for 3,700 rubles. Only Android can offer all its power in a device for this kind of money. Lifehacker got his hands on an interesting budget device MultiPhone 3400 DUO from the manufacturer Prestigio, and he had the honor of revealing the topic of advantages, disadvantages and features of inexpensive representatives of Android smartphones.
Housing version
Since we are talking about budget phones, we first need to deal with the first and one of the most common complaints about products in this category. It seems that the housings of such devices are made and assembled in such a way that everything plays, creaks, falls apart, and so on. In general, it’s disgusting to pick up. Is it really that bad?
Not really. Of course, you won't see polycarbonate or metal here, but the plastic used feels good in the hand. The smartphone does not slip and does not try to leave the owner’s hands at all. The reason is the soft-touch texture used on the back and sides.
When working with the screen, as well as when trying to press harder on the case, no sounds or play of the case were noticed. The monoblock holds up perfectly, and this is taking into account the removable back cover. Most likely, such reliability was achieved due to the wide side edges of the housing cover. The body of the smartphone seems to be buried in it, which ensures reliable adhesion of the parts.
The buttons sit smoothly and do not wobble. Due to good fixation, clicks are more accurate and, in general, more pleasant. The device is also quite lightweight - only 120 grams. In general, we had no complaints about the performance of the case.
Probably, the preconceived opinion “cheap = low quality” developed a long time ago, during the times of active import of “those” Chinese products. However, a lot has changed. Nowadays everything is made in China, and very high demands are placed on electronics specifically (after all, these devices end up in Europe too). In general, the myth about a cheap Chinese smartphone falling apart does not work in this case.
Screen
The screen here means not only the matrix, but also the coating. This is far from Corning Gorilla Glass of the third version, but it is quite pleasant to touch. The finger glides well over the surface, gestures are performed smoothly. The soiling can be called average, but all greasy prints, in the end, were easily removed even with a dry cloth.
The glass hides a 4-inch TFT display underneath. The matrix has a resolution of 800 by 480 pixels. Compared to the TOP FullHD flagships, it’s quite modest, but in practice, when you look at the screen from a distance of 30-40 centimeters, it’s very normal. Pixels do not appear, the picture looks nice even when you set a picture with small details as wallpaper.
You've probably read about the disputes between fans (I, to be honest, am one of them) of the big numbers that those TOP Androids boast about, and Apple fans, whose objects of love cannot yet boast of 445 ppi. So, comparing in practice super-sophisticated 1920x1080 IPS matrices with much more modest TFTs at a resolution of 800x480, you come to the conclusion that the difference is really not so critical. More precisely, it is not critical at all. This is, rather, the influence of marketing and a personal desire to show off or prove the superiority of the gadget being used, rather than the real advantage of TOP technologies.
Hardware and operating system
Let's start with the main thing. The letters “DUO” in the model name, as well as the characteristic name of the line of smartphones “MultiPhone” indicate that the devices have two slots for SIM cards. This solution is user-friendly from all sides and has dozens of practical applications. You can connect one card with inexpensive calls and, in parallel, use a second SIM with a pleasant Internet tariff. You can simultaneously keep in touch with your personal and work numbers. And all this without the need to carry an additional device with you.
In contrast to the current trend of removing slots for SD memory cards from smartphones, Prestigio left an expansion option in the MultiPhone 3400 DUO. The existing internal storage of 4 GB can always be increased to the required volume by purchasing an additional SD card. There is no card included.
Hardware in budget phones, traditionally, is not top-notch. This allows you to significantly reduce the final cost of the device, and here the manufacturer requires very great attention to selecting the optimal option. A too weak processor will lead to slowdowns in the operating system, and an overly powerful solution will inevitably raise the price, further and further moving the product away from its original status.
In this case, everything works on a dual-core MediaTek MT6572 1.2 GHz without a graphics accelerator. The amount of RAM is 512 MB. Current communication modules are in place: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3G are there and work as they should. But the GPS disappeared somewhere. To be honest, at first we didn’t quite understand the reason for excluding such a useful feature, but then everything became clear. For simple user applications, such as Google maps and all kinds of services with a geopositioning option, GPS is not at all necessary. It is perfectly replaced by 3G + Wi-Fi. But for motorists, Prestigio makes full-fledged separate navigators. In general, the strategy is clear, and, in fact, this state of affairs does not complicate the life of a simple user in any way. The Internet is available everywhere within the city, and with two SIM cards it’s even easier to organize cheap communications.
It is pointless to present performance tables from benchmarks here, since the result will vary greatly depending on the installed version of Android. We did not rearrange the system, leaving the original factory assembly, and there is a reason for this: it works stably and quickly. The video plays smoothly, the music plays without interruptions (in standard applications). When running heavy applications, performance remains at an acceptable level, and the only exception here will be sophisticated games. Yes, the 3400 DUO does not have Snapdragon 800 and Adreno 330 graphics, so only not too demanding options should be considered as toys for this smartphone.
Meanwhile, another myth that budget Android is necessarily dumb has been successfully destroyed.
Prestigio has built in an additional updater that allows the package to update the OS and native applications over the air, but at the moment 4.2.2 remains the last supported version.
Of course, you can experiment with custom ones, but the task is complicated by the low distribution of this particular model. To put it simply, there are actually no custom options for it, but they don’t seem to be needed. Local Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean is as similar as possible to the “reference” stock one from Google and is only slightly diluted with the manufacturer’s own software.
Cameras
There are two of them, and they are really simple. Front camera for video communication 0.3 megapixels. Not great, but given the reality of the quality of our mobile networks, which do not work acceptable everywhere, more is not needed.
The main camera is only 3 megapixels, but don’t forget - you’re holding a budget camera for 3,700 rubles. With its help, you can take standard pictures without any frills, record the necessary information, recognize codes and text using specialized applications.
Battery
The battery capacity of the 3400 DUO is 1500 mAh, and in this case this is quite enough. Not the most powerful processor, there is no need to waste resources on separate graphics rendering, the screen - all this reduces battery requirements, which translates into operating times typical for Android devices in the most current modes. There is enough charge for a day of normal use (talking, a little music, surfing, a little YouTube, email).
So what's good about budget Android?
It is good because for an incredibly small amount it opens up to the user ALL the features and benefits that Android can give. Access and comfortable work in thousands of applications for any need, two SIM cards for even greater convenience. At the same time, what you have in your hands is not some kind of freak, but a completely solid all-in-one with a good screen. In fact, if we ignore the concepts of “show-off”, “status”, “fashion” and “trend”, while focusing on common sense and logic, then such a budget phone suddenly surpasses all the most sophisticated Android smartphones, because it has almost everything the user needs, and there are no excesses for which we overpay tens of thousands.
This is the ideal “first smartphone” for a child. This is where you can start your acquaintance with the world of Android. Perhaps, a person dependent on the rules imposed by consumer ideology will feel uncomfortable bothering such a hard worker surrounded by an iPhone 5S and Galaxy S4, but at the same time, a clear understanding has formed in my head: but on this thing I can do everything that I can do on on your Nexus 5.
MultiPhone 3400 DUO is equipped with a powerful dual-core processor and an exceptionally functional Android 4.2 Jelly Bean platform. A large 4-inch capacitive screen and a colorful operating system interface make this smartphone very easy to use.

Controls: voice dialing, voice control Flight mode: yes Display type: LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) - Liquid crystal displays. The very first displays used in mobile devices, and not only in phones. Their main feature is that they have very low power consumption, due to the inability to display color images. They do not emit light and therefore phones are upgraded with backlight lamps. Some phones had several different backlight colors based on the presence of different LEDs around the perimeter of the display. This extraordinary solution was used, for example, in the Ericsson A3618 phone. On this type of display, pixels are clearly visible, and such displays cannot boast of high resolution. In order to extend the life of such displays, they were made inverse, i.e. text and symbols were not displayed as filled pixels, but, on the contrary, inactive against the background of filled ones. This resulted in light text on a dark background. Currently, this type of display is used in the cheapest budget models (Nokia 1112) and as an external display in some clamshells (Samsung D830).TFT (Thin Film Transistor) - Liquid crystal displays based on thin film transistors with an active matrix. For each pixel there are three transistors corresponding to three colors (RGB - red, green, blue). At the moment, these are the most common displays and have a number of advantages over other displays. They are characterized by minimal response time and rapid development - ever-increasing resolution and number of colors. These displays are most common in mid-range and higher phones. Working resolutions for them: 128x160, 132x176, 176x208, 176x220, 240x320 and others, less common. Examples: Nokia N73 (240x320, 262k colors), Sony Ericsson K750i (176x220, 262k colors), Samsung D900 (240x320, 262k colors). TFTs are very rarely used as external displays for clamshells.
CSTN (Color Super Twisted Nematic) - Color liquid crystal displays with a passive matrix. Each pixel of such a display consists of three combined pixels, which correspond to three colors (RGB). Some time ago, almost all phones with color displays were based on this type. And now the destiny of such displays is budget models. The main disadvantage of such displays is their slowness. The undoubted advantage of such displays is their cost, which is significantly lower than TFT. Based on simple logic, we can assume that in the future TFT will displace this type of display from the mobile device market. The color evolution of such displays is quite extensive: from 16 to 65536 colors. Examples: Motorola V177 (128x160, 65K colors), Sony Ericsson J100i (96x64, 65K colors), Nokia 2310 (96x68, 65K colors).
UFB (Ultra Fine and Bright) - Liquid crystal displays with increased brightness and contrast on a passive matrix. We can say that this is an intermediate option between CSTN and TFT. This type of display boasts lower power consumption compared to TFT. For the most part, Samsung used such displays in mid-range phones. This type of display is not widely used. Examples: Samsung C100/110 (128x128, 65k colors).
TN is one of the matrix types of TFT screens. Roughly speaking, TN are the simplest and cheapest TFT matrices. Viewing angles are the narrowest.
For obvious reasons, on the Internet we much more often come across reviews of flagship Android smartphones that occupy the upper price niche, but budget representatives of a large family with a green robot on board receive much less attention.
In fact, budget Android is the ideal choice for the practical person looking for the best balance of features and price, and there are no alternatives.
