Editorial note

The Cubot S308 presents itself as an interesting smartphone, offering several attractive features for users looking for a functional device at an affordable price. With a 5-inch screen and a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels, it provides a decent visual experience. Additionally, its 13 MP rear camera and 8 MP front camera are major assets, offering the possibility to capture quality photos even in low-light conditions thanks to the flash. However, a few drawbacks must be taken into account. The internal storage capacity is limited to 16 GB and does not allow for expansion via a memory card, which may prove insufficient for users with significant storage needs. Furthermore, the MediaTek MT6582 processor at 1.3 GHz, while adequate for everyday tasks, may show signs of weakness when using more demanding applications, leading to slowdowns. In terms of connectivity, the Cubot S308 performs well with its support for 3G HSDPA and HSUPA standards, ensuring a fast and reliable mobile connection. The 2000 mAh nickel-metal hybrid battery technology offers reasonable battery life but may require frequent recharges during intensive use. Finally, the Android 4.4 operating system is a weak point, being outdated and limiting access to the latest applications and security updates, which can significantly affect the user experience. Despite these limitations, the Cubot S308 represents a valid option for those seeking a basic smartphone with solid features.
