The US operator FreedomPop has announced the launch in Spain of a smartphone of its own manufacture. An inexpensive Android mobile that offers a 5-inch screen and a 13-megapixel camera. But it is not the only thing, since we will also have Android 6.0 and a Qualcomm processor for a price of 60 euros. Additionally, the FreedomPop V7 comes with Wi-Fi-first technology. This technology will allow us to make calls automatically through WiFi as long as the terminal has good coverage. And the best thing is that the transfer of calls to the mobile network when Wi-Fi coverage is abandoned will be automatic. We are going to review the characteristics of this inexpensive terminal.
The operator FreedomPop came to Spain with the promise of offering 'free mobile telephony' to everyone. And, to a large extent, it is. The company has a free basic plan that includes 200 MB of data and 100 minutes of calls per month. Additionally, this rate includes 300 monthly outgoing text messages and free WhatsApp data traffic.
Well, now the company even dares to launch its own very cheap Android terminal. It is not the first time that the company sells mobile phones, since it has some reconditioned terminals in its catalog. However, the FreedomPop V7 is the first private label terminal that the company makes available to users.
A simple team
As you can imagine, we are facing a mobile with very simple characteristics. However, it might be more than enough for some users looking for basic usage. And is that the FreedomPop V7 incorporates a 5-inch screen, whose resolution has not been disclosed.
Inside it hides a Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 processor. This processor is accompanied by 8 GB of internal memory. If this capacity falls short, we can expand it with a microSD card of up to 32 GB.
Despite its low price, the FreedomPop V7 offers a 13 megapixel main camera with LED Flash. On the front we have a 5 megapixel camera.
Finally, it should be noted that it is a device with dual SIM. This means that we can carry both the FreedomPop card and that of any other operator.
The FreedomPop V7 can now be purchased through the operator's website at a price of 60 euros. When you buy the terminal, the company will also send us your SIM card with the free plan. A good way to get started on Android mobile phones.
