Alcatel OneTouch Fierce Pro Reviews

If you don't need the fastest Web speeds or the sharpest display, the Alcatel One Touch Fierce is a solid Android bargain on T-Mobile.

While you may be tempted by the One Touch Fierce's price, satisfying 4G speeds, and reliable call quality, I still don't recommend this device. Especially considering its laggy processing performance, unimpressive camera, and poor touchscreen. If you want to stay with T-Mobile, consider other devices like the LG Optimus F3. Though it costs $100 more, it packs a vibrant, responsive screen and LTE capabilities. If you're open to an alternative OS, the Nokia Lumia 521, which is a Windows Phone 8 handset, is a $144 steal with a better camera. In addition, there are better prepaid handsets from different carriers as well. Both Virgin Mobile's Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE and Boost Mobile's LG Mach have 4G LTE data speeds, but are currently only $55 and $40 more expensive, respectively. The Victory also has NFC while the Mach has a physical keyboard -- proving that you don't have to shell out a whole lot to get a better device.
