Design and Build
With dimensions of 145 x 73.4 x 10 mm and weighing in at 189 grams, the Philips V526 exudes a sturdy, if slightly bulky, presence in hand. The 5-inch IPS LCD display offers vibrant colors and decent viewing angles with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing a pixel density of around 294 ppi. While not the most compact device, its overall design aims for functionality over flashiness, which is emphasized by its all-black color scheme. The dual SIM capability is a highlight, offering user flexibility in managing personal and work numbers or different network carriers.
