| Alcatel 3L, 1S, 1V and 1B Launched |
Consumers might be confused at first as the phones share the same model numbers as the brand’s older devices. However, the company made sure that these handsets are packed with latest offerings.
Alcatel 3L
The Alcatel 3L is the most competitive device among them. It features a 6.22-inch IPS panel with an HD+ 19:9 screen, which the company named as Vast Display. It is also mounted with a tiny notch to house its front camera, but the device still appears to have thick bezels and chin.
Under the hood, the Alcatel 3L is powered by a MediaTek MT6762 octa-core processor, paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB of expandable storage. Fueling up the device is a large 4,000mAh battery, too.
In terms of photography department, Alcatel armed it with a triple-rear camera setup, consisting of a 48-megapixel f/1.8 main shooter, 5-megapixel f/2.2 115-degree ultra-wide lens, and 2-megapixel f/2.4 macro sensor.

Alcatel 1S
Unlike the 3L, the Alcatel 1S doesn’t come with a gradient design. Instead, it settles for a simpler glass-like body. Its front, on the other hand, is dominated by the same 6.22-inch screen with 1520 x 720 resolution as its brother.
Inside, Alcatel loaded it with a MediaTek MT6762D chipset, lower 3GB RAM, 32GB storage, and an identical 4,000mAh stamina. Camera-wise, the phone is equipped with a triple-rear setup, banking on a 13-megapixel f/1.8 primary sensor, 5-megapixel f/2.2 ultra-wide lens, and 2-megapixel f/2.4 macro snapper.
