Wiko View 3 review: the smartphone with 2 days of autonomy (real)

Don't be fooled by the low price: Wiko View 3 with its 179 € it is actually able to keep up with all the daily activities, giving a lot of satisfaction when it comes to autonomy. We talk about it in this one review.

A huge display

The first thing you will notice about the Wiko View 3 is undoubtedly the huge display of the last 6 chickens, an IPS LCD that performs well in the sun and allows you to enjoy any type of content despite the rather low resolution. To maximize the size, the French company has decided to opt for a small notch that provides two modes: standard or drip. You do not like? No problem: you can hide it by visiting the dedicated menu.




I also point out the presence of the now less and less used Notification LED, useful to know if you have missed calls, messages and emails, but also to immediately understand if the battery is abandoning you.

On the back instead we find the polycarbonate shell, perhaps too sensitive to fingerprints, the triple camera module and the fingerprint sensor. Alternatively, you can also take advantage of 2D facial recognition which is less secure.

The right profile houses the volume rocker and the on / off button, on the left we have the hybrid slot for the two SIMs and the possible microSD, while on the upper one we find the 3,5 mm jack. Finally, the bottom side is dedicated to the microUSB connector, still very popular in this price range, and to the mono speaker.

Rising to the occasion

Wiko View 3 comes with a Mediatek Helio P22 processor, 3 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal memory. A trio that allows you to do practically everything, from surfing the Internet to watching streaming content. The space available then allows you to install all the apps you need but also to save music and movies.

Excellent reception, while we find some small disappointments on the connectivity side: NFC nient for this View 3, which means that you will not be able to take advantage of digital payments. The 4000 mAh battery is excellent. In fact, with an average use you will be able to practically cover two full days.



The software that aesthetically recalls the stock version of Android 9.0 Pie. Don't be fooled though: inside you will find many additional functions. My favorite is the Simple Mode, a hyper-simplified mode that adapts to less technological users or to older ones.




Three cameras are better than one

Well yes, despite Wiko View 3 costs less than 200 euros, it comes with 3 rear cameras. We have a main sensor from 12 megapixel, a secondary one from 2 megapixel, deputy only to the depth of field, and finally a third 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor.

This guarantees you a truly surprising versatility for this range but also clear shots ready to be shared on your favorite social networks, at least in good lighting conditions.

On the other hand, the selfies are discreet, using the 8 megapixel front camera and the inevitable beauty effect, while the videos are absolutely promoted thanks to the good stability offered by this smartphone.


    Wiko View 3: buy it or not?

    Wiko View 3 has everything you need: a large display, excellent battery life, a satisfying camera and fast, feature-rich software. All this - I remind you - a 179 euro. In short, it is the ideal terminal for those who do not want to give up anything without spending too much.
