The French brand Wiko has also had its presentation at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in 2019. And among its terminals brought to Barcelona is the Wiko View3. An entry-level device that seeks to continue taking advantage of its View screen, which is what they call the widescreen panels that seek to occupy most of the front of the terminal.
In this case, the Wiko View3 can boast a generous screen with its 6.26 inches that seeks to occupy the entire front. That is why we find a small notch or notch with the selfie camera on the front in its design. Although the important thing is its three rear cameras and, even more, its 4,000 mAh battery. A performance for an average user who is committed to solving any photographic situation and having an operational mobile without always having to carry the charger.

Clean design with View screen
The appearance of this Wiko View3 is really simple. There are no edges, but rounded corners, and the lines are straight and elegant. A clean design that focuses all the attention on the front and the rear. In this last part we find the capsule of the cameras in vertical format, as Apple does, and with the fingerprint sensor in a high but central point on the back. The metallic finish comes in several colorful colors: dark blue, rose gold and an electric tone that seems to change as the light falls on it. Something that targets a young audience that wants to look mobile. By the way, there are two versions that, in addition, shine in the dark to be able to find the mobile without problems, even with the screen down. Glossy finishes when there is light and also when there is not.
Returning to its screen, we find a 6.26-inch-size LCD panel. It is generous, and seeks to occupy as much of the front as possible. Its maximum resolution is HD +, which is not surprising if we know that we are talking about a mobile with an affordable price that places it in the entry range. There is only a slightly wider frame at the bottom of the terminal, as well as a notch or notch in the shape of a drop at the top.
Two + one camera
Wiko has brought the triple camera system to its Wiki View3, seeking the formula to give versatility to its terminal for different situations and settings. For this, this mobile has a Sony IMX486 12MP main sensor and a pixel size of 1.25μm for general photographs. Next to it is a second 13-megapixel sensor with a wide-angle lens that expands the view up to 120 degrees. Finally, the third camera, with only two megapixels, is used to measure the depth and apply the bokeh effect or portrait mode to the photos. Or use other Artificial Intelligence effects included by Wiko to play with color. Regarding the camera for selfies, the notch or notch houses an 8 megapixel sensor.
This Wiko View3 also comes with Google Lens integrated directly into its camera application. So you can take advantage of Google's Artificial Intelligence to recognize objects, search for them on the Internet through photos, etc. But it is not the only thing from Google that this mobile brings, the Google assistant is also present.
Mid-range power and great battery
Under the hood we find a Helio P22 processor from Mediatek. It has eight cores, and enough power so that this Wiko View3 can move any application or simple game of the moment without problems. This is helped by its 3 GB of RAM, which leaves behind the times of the mid-range with 1 or 2 GB. As for storage, it comes only with 64 GB as standard, but with a microSD card slot that can grant up to 256 GB of extra capacity. All this moved by the latest version of the Android operating system, the 9 Pie. So we make sure we have up-to-date security barriers and the latest compatibility with current services and applications.
Do not lose sight of the battery, and it is one of the keys to this Wiko View3. Its 4,000 mAh make it clear that the terminal withstands daily use without problems. In fact, the French company relies so much on the included software and resource management that it dares to say that autonomy can be extended up to two days.
Availability and price
For now, Wiko has only taken advantage of the MWC in Barcelona to present the terminal, without communicating information about its availability. Only the colors and the only model available are known, but not how much it will cost and what the sale date will be. We will stay tuned.
