It took about 2 hours 40 minutes to charge and well lasts about more than a day if you are not a power user. But for a power user it might last only about 3 hours especially with LTE on.
The main downside if it really matters to you is that the battery is not replaceable because it’s built in.

Camera and Sound:
The camera is a strong 13 MP for the backside which is quite good for a phone this size. But while it has a Time Lapse feature as an individual part this camera ends up being just sufficient enough for devices in its price range. The camera response is good while clicking when adjustments in auto mode take a while and sometimes can go awry in areas with a lot of light. Colors output is quite good and grain does affect the output in low light. The front camera is a strong 5MP which will mean that selfies will have considerably good quality.
The sound is basically supported by two speakers, one each at the top and the bottom. Both speakers function the same when it comes to calling so that supports the idea of reversibility even more. Not to mention that the audio is supported by a special partner that goes by the name of JBL and after playing some music and a test video the high quality was confirmed with brilliant volume and clarity of the output.
Display:
The display is a compact 4.7 in screen and supported by Alcatel’s partner Technicolor which is the first that I have certainly heard of. After watching a couple of music videos in 720p since this is a 720p resolution screen I was very impressed by the video output. The colors in the phones menus were quite vibrant while in the video also output was quite good. Added to the above the screen at full brightness was clearly visible in heavy sunlight.
