Packing the best in flagship smartphone specs, the IDOL 3 delivers on three key user experiences: sound, camera and display.

The Alcatel IDOL 3 is thin, light, and fast enough to do just about anything a user wants from a proper smartphone. On the inside, it has an octa-core Qualcommm Snapdragon 615 processor, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage running a very close stock version of Android 5.0.2 Lollipop.
The phone offers unique enhancements like the fully reversible user interface that makes the screen adaptive to be right side up, even if the phone itself is upside down.
The device will soon be available at all Mobilink Business Centers for an approximate price of PKR 25,999. Customers availing this opportunity will also be given six months of free Jazz internet (subject to limit of 1GB per month).
