As days go by, technology becomes more and more affordable, which is particularly true when we look at the entry-level range of the mobile industry. A perfect example of the above mentioned is the  Elephone  E10 , a new smartphone that costs no more than 120 euros, but still manages to offer features such as: a quad camera with a 48MP primary sensor, NFC connectivity for wireless payments. and a nice aesthetic finish. 

Also, if you are looking for a good terminal in the same price range as the  Elephone  E10, then you may be interested in taking a look at the  Elephone U2 , which comes from the same manufacturer and incorporates a  dual selfie camera  with a pop-up mechanism. 

ELEPHONE E10 Technical Specifications : Elephone E10, super cheap and with 48MP quad camera 

Design and build 

At the design level, the  Elephone  E10 is made to capture the user’s attention, with a look that emulates market trends, but only that, emulates them, since the back cover is not made of glass, but plastic. Despite this, the green version with a gradient effect is still very attractive.  

Going into details, the terminal is characterized by a 6.5-inch screen with a 19: 9 aspect ratio and a water-shaped notch for the front camera, resulting in an HD + resolution of 1,560 x 720 pixels . It goes without saying that the frames are very small and that the frontal space is used quite well, 90.3% of it is occupied by the screen, which is commendable.

Also, the  Elephone  E10 has dimensions of 16.36 x 7.73 x 0.85 cm and a total weight of 193 grams, which is quite normal when considering its performance and battery capacity.  

Upon closer inspection, we will find a rectangular module that houses four rear cameras and an LED flash on the rear deck. In the center of said cover there is no fingerprint reader, only the company logo, this is actually arranged on the right side of the body and in turn acts as a power button. Above this button is the respective volume control. 

At the bottom of the  Elephone  E10, there is a USB Type-C port and also the mobile speakers. It should be noted that unfortunately the mobile lacks a 3.5mm audio jack, so you will have to use a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter if you intend to use your headphones with this device. 

Hardware and Features : As days go by, technology becomes more and more affordable, which is particularly true

We were honestly  hoping for some  serious cuts in this area to keep the price of the device so affordable, but the  Elephone  E10 still does quite well in this regard. Going into detail, the terminal is powered by a well-known chip, the Helio P22 , an octa core chip   that can reach frequencies of up to 2.0Ghz. It is paired with 4GB of RAM and has a 64GB internal storage that can be expanded up to 512GB via Micro-SD.  

This  set  is more than capable of keeping up when using day-to-day applications and also responds in a decent way when running games like  Asphalt  9 and  Call of Duty  Mobile,  although  yes, do not expect to move either game. with the graphics on high at 60FPS, but for a casual experience it is acceptable.   

Returning to the main topic, the  Elephone  E10 is powered by a 4,000mAh battery, which claims to support fast charging, although  we  can hardly consider a power of 10 watts as fast in a battery of this capacity. 

The operating system that comes on board this terminal is none other than Android 10 and at the connectivity level it reserves a small surprise for us, it is compatibility with the NFC standard , so we can use Google Pay for electronic payments. The rest of the wireless connectivity options are: 4G LTE,  dual band Wi- Fi, Bluetooth 5.0 and GPS / A-GPS / Glonass . 

Cameras and photography : As days go by, technology becomes more and more affordable, which is particularly true

Against all  odds,  the manufacturer has managed to include a quad camera in this terminal, where the main sensor can boast of a 48MP resolution . In turn, this sensor is supported by a 13MP wide-angle lens and also by a 5MP macro camera and a 2MP depth sensor . The set is capable of taking good shots under daylight and we honestly cannot complain about its photographic quality for the price it has, but if we compare it with 48MP cameras present in mobiles that cost two or three times what this terminal is worth. We will obviously be disappointed. 

Finally, we have the front camera, whose resolution is 13MP and which is located in the notch shaped like a drop of water.
