Camera
The Alcatel Idol 5's camera system caters adequately for everyday photography needs. The main camera boasts a 13 MP sensor with an f/2.0 aperture, equipped with phase detection autofocus (PDAF) for swift and accurate focusing. Additional features such as dual-LED dual-tone flash and HDR enhance photo quality, especially in challenging lighting conditions. Video recording is possible at 1080p at 30 frames per second, allowing for clear footage. On the front, the 5 MP selfie camera with an f/2.4 aperture captures reasonable images for social media sharing, albeit less robustly than more advanced camera phones.
