Panasonic Eluga A3 Pro

Panasonic is looking to make headway in the mid-range smartphone market with their two new releases, the Eluga A3 and the Eluga A3 Pro, which are to be unveiled in August 2017. What sets the device apart from others at the price point is the introduction of Panasonic's in-house virtual assistant called ARBO, which is poised to compete with the likes of Samsung's Bixby and Apple's Siri. It is available in three colours, Gold, Mocha Gold, Grey. 

The Eluga A3 Pro features a 5.2-inch 720x1280p display with a full metal body with Asahi Dragon Trial glass for the screen.  The rear camera is 13MP with PDAF and LED flash, and there’s an 8MP shooter on the front. 

Powering the Panasonic Eluga A3 Pro is an Octa-core MediaTek MT6753 processor clocked at 1.3GHz. On the storage front, the A3 Pro has 32GB internal memory, expandable up to 128GB via a MicroSD slot and 3GB of RAM, which should seamlessly handle most modern day applications. At the heart of it all is a massive 4000mAh non-removable battery which is sufficient to get your through the day with relative ease, even with moderate to heavy usage.  For the operating system, the A3 pro will run on Android Nougat 7.0 out of the box with a near stock Android experience. 

The Panasonic Eluga A3 Pro is a dual SIM 4G capable phone which supports VoLTE, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 and a micro USB 2.0 slot for data transfer and charging. Other features include a front facing fingerprint sensor, which seems to be a standard in most modern-day devices, a proximity sensor, USB OTG and an ambient light sensor.
