Specifications

edit

Design

edit

The device features a rear design with the terminal name, matching the concurrently announced "Qua tab PX" to emphasize their intended use as a paired set.[1] This integration allows for seamless connectivity, enabling users to receive call and SMS notifications from the Qua phone PX on the tablet, as well as smoothly transfer active websites and images between devices.

Cameras

edit

The main camera was upgraded to approximately 16.1 megapixels from the previous model's 13.1 megapixels, introducing an automatic shooting mode for backlight correction alongside a manual mode for fine-tuning ISO sensitivity and focus.[2] Additionally, the front-facing camera saw a significant upgrade from 2 megapixels to approximately 8 megapixels, facilitating higher-quality selfies.

Display

edit

It features a 5.2-inch Full HD (1920 × 1080 pixels) IPS liquid crystal display. Structurally, the chassis maintains a slim profile with a standard thickness of 7.5 mm, which reaches 7.9 mm at its thickest point, and weighs a lightweight 127 grams. Despite these compact dimensions, it integrates a 3,000 mAh battery, marking a substantial capacity upgrade from the 2,200 mAh battery found in its predecessor, the original Qua phone.

Hardware

edit

Internal processing is driven by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 (MSM8937) processor, configured with four cores running at 1.4 GHz and another four running at 1.1 GHz. The memory architecture consists of 2 GB of RAM paired with 16 GB of internal storage. Additionally, the handset offers robust environmental durability, certified with IPX5/IPX7 water resistance and IP6X dust protection.[3] It runs on Android 6.0 and was updated to Android 7.0.[4]
