Alcatel A5 LED, a upper entry-level smartphone with an LED back-cover. The phone’s plastic back has plenty of LEDs embedded under it, which in addition to looking kinda cool, act as a music visualizer, and fire up for notifications.
When you’re using the A5 LED as a music visualizer, the LEDs “dance” to the beat of the music. You’re able to swap styles by shaking the phone.
Unique feature on Alcatel A5 LED:
Offering a unique and interactive experience found only in the A5, Alcatel puts you in charge of how you want to show off your smartphone personality with a dazzling array of LED light shows:
• Light up your notifications with a different light show for important incoming calls, messages, alarms, and social media alerts.
• Light up your life using Color Catcher 2.0 by creating unique LED cover patterns and themes for a different look every day.
• Light up your imagination with an eye-catching personalized light show.
• Light up your music, with light shows that move with your tunes, switching with a simple shake.
Each LED notification has a unique appearance to help you differentiate when the phone is face down. For example, the back might light up blue for Facebook, and yellow for Snapchat.
You’re also able to personalize the LED pattern the A5 LED displays when you unlock it using a feature called colour capture, where the device picks out a few major hues from a photo of your choice. This will also match the phone’s operating system to the same colors.
