"Megafon Optima": user reviews and features

Not new is the emergence in recent years of a large number of budget mobile devices. In addition to having a mass of functions that modern operating systems provide (mostly Android), they offer them at a very reasonable, affordable price. Due to this, a greater number of buyers with different levels of income can purchase such models for themselves and their children. One of these mobile phones is Megafon Optima. We will describe it in this article.

What "Megafon Optima" benefits developers

So, this model is one of the most budgetary on the market today. Of course, such a pricing policy company-developer is not without reason. Why is the device that has a mass of merits (even if compared with direct competitors) is offered so cheaply?

The answer is simple. The customer who pays for the new Megafon Optima phone receives not only the smartphone at its own disposal. Along with the device, there is also a starter pack of the operator "Megafon", an activated function of access to the Internet and, of course, a tariff plan (as stated on the website, this is the "Internet XS." Is this a lot?

If you take into account that all other developers of mobile phones simply realize their product, getting added value in the form of profit; And "Megaphone", in addition to selling a smartphone, also receives customers who subsequently use its services - it's a lot. In the future, each user pays for communication services, which generates additional revenue.

That's why Megafon Optima - a smartphone that TCT Mobile collects, but sells a mobile operator - is so beneficial for its developers. Even despite the low cost.

Cost of the model

Now Megafon Optima can be purchased on the official website of the operator. The cost of it is 3400 rubles. At the same time, the line "price" indicates that the model costs only 2700 rubles, and another 700 will go to pay for communication services. However, according to the conditions of the sellers themselves, these "communication services" can be paid only at the time of purchase of the device.

Why so cheap? As already noted above, for the company the benefit lies in further payments that come from the client. In addition, the bet is made that such a device (endowed with a large screen) will serve as a platform for creating an additional market for services. So, the user will download games, books and applications to his "Megafon Optima", due to which the operator will earn even more.

Phone accessories

If we talk about the device itself, or rather - about its configuration, it should be noted that it is not much different from similar models of the budget segment. This is a typical "Chinese" smartphone (not only because it is produced, but also because such, as a rule, are sold under brands from China), sold at a low price.

Comes with a mobile charger, a connection cord with a laptop, headphones and a starter pack. It is noteworthy that Megafon Optima is blocked for use solely by the card of its "native" operator. Put the other sim card there simply will not work.

Device Features

The phone is quite cheap - it's obvious. It is issued by the operator "Megaphone" - this is also understood by every user. At the same time, many people are interested in the characteristics of the device in Megafon Optima; What kind of processor, camera, display, battery. It should be noted that the model has a 2-core processor with a frequency of 1.3 GHz, a 3-megapixel camera, and a battery with a capacity of 1300 mAh. Call it indicators of the flagship model, but for a budget smartphone, such as the one that Megafon Optima is, the characteristics given above are quite acceptable. With this device you can use "top" games on the Play Market, as well as a lot of useful applications from this store. Actually, this is what the developers of the device are trying to achieve.

Competitors and Analogues

If you analyze user reviews, "Megaphone Optima" can be attributed to the category of phones like Lenovo and MTS (also, by the way, promoted in the same way - with the installed launch package of the operator). A special similarity is observed with MTS 972, however, this phone costs an order of magnitude more - about 4700 rubles.

The parameters of the devices are similar, so the difference is, rather, in the mobile operator. Phones like Lenovo, located in the same price segment, it is better to buy for the reason that you are not limited to just one mobile operator, and therefore you can use any SIM card (or even several).

As for the products of MTS and Megafon Optima, they can be selected by analyzing the proposals from each of the companies. For example, "Megafon" offers Internet XS tariff, and MTS - "Super Zero region" tariff (as recommended). Depending on why you need this phone - for permanent Internet or calls, and you need to proceed when making a choice.

Conclusion on the smartphone "Megafon Optima"

What can we say about this device? In general, this is a budget solution for those who want a smartphone with all the multimedia capabilities available at the moment. Still it is possible to mention about real buyers who have left the responses. "Optical Megaphone", according to their point of view, is a cheap device capable of performing basic tasks (playing music, surfing the Internet and downloading the simplest applications). If we talk about more complex graphics on the newest games, about the constant use of the phone to watch video in high quality, then the phone starts to behave more slowly, sometimes it's buggy and hot. There is also insufficient battery endurance (according to those who left the reviews, "Optimum's Megaphone" is able to keep in the mode of active use no more than 3-4 hours). What, in this case, is also a disadvantage.

On the other hand, "Optima" has obvious advantages. In addition to the price, it is also a nice appearance that gives the style to the owner of the phone. In addition, the device is available immediately in two color variations: black and white. Due to this, again, there is some minimal, but individualization of the device.

"Megafon Optima", thanks to its qualities, can be an excellent gift to the child, given that it is not so pitiful to break or lose. At the same time, the phone has the basic capabilities that characterize modern smartphones. And this means: access to the network, multimedia, a set of applications and much more.
