HomTom H5 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

HomTom H5 - a camera phone for the poor?

The audience of the smartphone market is accustomed to the fact that you can get more or less quality pictures only from expensive devices. Rare exceptions only confirm the rule. Can the hero of today's review be referred to this category of phones?

The design of the novelty is modern, not deprived of ergonomics. The compact body of high quality plastic decorated with a solid metal edging, dual camera, fingerprint scanner and nearly frameless OGS-screen TV. The 5.5-inch display is good within the price range. Brightness and contrast are at a decent average level, the resolution of 1440 x 720 pixels allows you to save the detail of the picture.

Technical specifications will not be cause for surprise. Standard processor Mediatek MT6739 is supplemented with 3 GB of RAM and not the most powerful video chip PowerVE GE8100 . For many games there is enough and such "hardware", but you do not need to count on the smoothness of the image in demanding gaming applications. The volume of ROM reached 32GB , but nobody prevents it from expanding with the help of microSD cards .

The main 16 and 2-megapixel photo modules exceed those of the previous models H1 and H3. Now it's much easier to get an excellent photo in the evening, even if this is a task that does not become too easy. The 8-megapixel front-end was pulled up too. She was given a separate LED flash, so a good photographer can even create a good self. Batteries in the 3300mAh are enough for a good seven hours of active screen time. Optimization of Android 8.1, OTG, LTE and the overall balance of the device favorably allocate it against the background of opponents. Still add to the performance unit.
