Performance and Software
Operating on Android 5.1 Lollipop, the Astro X55 is powered by a Mediatek MT6580 chipset. This includes a quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and a Mali-400MP2 GPU, aimed at handling standard smartphone activities without lag. Although the 1GB RAM and 8GB of internal storage are modest by today's standards, they were adequate for basic applications and tasks at the time of release. Users seeking additional storage can utilize the microSDHC slot to expand capacity.
