Design & Display

Itel A60s Performance

The Itel A60s is powered by a Unisoc SC9863A1 (28nm) processor and comes with 4GB of RAM which is capable of handling basic tasks like calls, messaging, and light web browsing. However, the phone struggles when multitasking and running heavy applications. It runs on Android 12 which is optimized for entry-level devices and it is quite impressive.

Camera

Battery Life

One of the outstanding features of the Itel A60s is its battery life. It is one area where the device outperforms its competitors in the same price range. It is equipped with a 5000mAh removable battery, the phone can last a full day with moderate use. If you’re a light user, you might even squeeze out more.

Itel A60s Storage

The Itel A60s comes with 64GB of internal storage, which can be expanded with a microSD card. Given that the system and pre-installed apps take up a significant portion of the storage, you’ll need to invest in a microSD card if you plan to store a substantial amount of data or apps.

Connectivity and Features

This phone supports 3G networks, which is quite limiting in today’s age where 4G is widely available. It has basic connectivity options like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Unfortunately, it lacks a fingerprint sensor, and the facial recognition feature is quite basic.
