Alcatel formally opened its first concept store in the country in simple ceremonies last December 8. Located at the Gaisano Mall of Davao, the opening follows the establishment of six kiosks in different parts of the Philippines.
“The store was three years in the making and today marks the formal return of one of the first digital mobile telephony brands to the consumer market,” said Tekpone’s Jimmy Yap.
Inside the store, guests can check out the latest Alcatel mobile phones such as the popular PIXI 4+ Power which combines a large smartphone display and snappy processing speeds together with a powerful 5000mAh battery that provides for an all-day multimedia experience. With one of the biggest capacity battery in the market, the PIXI 4+ Power can also do double duty as a powerbank if ever your friends need to charge up.
Also in store is Alcatel’s new flagship model, the Alcatel SHINE LITE. Sporting 2.5D glass on the front and back of the phone and a stylish metal frame, the Alcatel SHINE LITE is both stunning to see and sleek to the touch.
Aside from having a fast multi-core processor, the Alcatel SHINE LITE excels in taking photos. Its front camera comes with a front flash that makes photos brighter and more vivid under an lighting condition. Its rear camera has a dal tone flash that allows for more natural and accurate color toned images under low light conditions. Stylish and innovative, the SHINE LITE gives a feature-rich experience and targets young Filipinos who appreciate both premium design and an affordable price.
Alcatel’s concept store also carries tablets, unique wearables and digital gadgets for families and digital travellers. Uniquely Alcatel is the MOVE TIME 2G connected watch for kids aged five to ten. Designed for parent’s peace of mind, the smartwatch allows parents to call or
send voice messages to their kids. Kids can reply to calls from up to ten pre-set contacts and make calls to five registered numbers as the watch supports 2G network connectivity.
“The MOVE TIME allows parents to call their kids or have their kids call them from the safety of a secure device.” said Alcatel country manager, Charlotte Koa. “Parents can also track their kids location on their smartphones with the help of dedicated iOS and Android app. They will be notified on their phone, when their children enter or leave a pre-determined safe zone.”
