Itel A56 And A56 Pro Specification And Review
Itel a56 and a56 pro was launched earlier this year by Itel mobile. The Itel a56 and a56 pro come with a 5.99-inch IPS full-screen display, 480 x 960-pixel resolution and an 18:9 ratio which allows immersing display on movies and games. A56 pro is almost the same as A56 when it comes to body design.
DESIGN
The A56 Pro comes with a beautiful design made with plastic which looks attractive, it has a curved screen on both edges of the screen, and a well-mounted rear fingerprint at the back of the smartphone.
At the top left of A56 pro is its camera and flashlight below the second camera and also the speaker is located down at the left side.
At the front top of Itel A56 pro is the front flashlight, front camera, and sensors, the a56 pro has an on-screen navigation button, the front looks kind of dull to me because it is old fashioned. Itel a56 pro measures 159.7 x 77.7 x 8.9 mm dimension and weighs 164 grams.
Itel A56 and pro have a screen size of 5.99inch IPS LCD and a resolution of 480 x 960 pixels which looks low compared to other smartphones with 5.99inchs, like olla M8 plus. The A56 and A56 pro have a kind of black paint that was used to create a beautifully curved screen. Even with its massive 4000mah battery Itel a56pro looks slim.
CAMERA
Itel a56 and pro come with a back 8mp camera assisted with a 0.3mp second camera which I’m not sure of its function although both work simultaneously to create beautiful photos. Itel a56 and pro also have a back flashlight which enables you to take pictures at night, at the front top right is a flashlight for selfie and at the top left is a 5mp camera for selfies.

WHAT I DONT LIKE ABOUT ITEL A56 AND PRO
I don’t expect any smartphone to be 100% good, all smartphones have a good side and a bad side. let’s take a look at the bad side of Itel A56 and pro.
Itel A56 and pro have no fast charge. A smartphone with that has up to 4000mah battery is suppose to have a fast charge enabled in it, but the case of this smartphone was neglected, charging on Itel A56 takes about 3 hours plus, from 0 to 100%.
The front design looks old. The Itel A56 and pro front design look old, I think the front flash would have been hidden at the top like the Tecno pouvior 4.
Bad screen design. Itel A56 and A56 pro have a kind of black painted colour around the screen which was done for the beautification of the smartphone. It seems to be the worst design so far because it was poorly made as Itel failed to do the colouring inside but rather did it outside which result to peeling of the black colour used to design the smartphone.
Not so pocket friendly. I wouldn’t want to talk much about this, as it is too obvious that a 1.3GHZ MTK CPU with low screen resolution is up to 30,000 Nigerian naira.
WHAT I LIKE ABOUT ITEL A56 AND PRO
Large storage space. This one is for the pro version users, I love the 32GB inbuilt storage, and also the ability to use an SD card up to 64GB it’s a good one. Users of a high-end phone, this won’t make any sense to you I understand.
Large 4000Mah battery. I guess this is the selling point of Itel A56 and pro, I enjoyed using it for some days and it’s great.
