The Alcatel OneTouch Pixi 3 (5.5) 4G is a 4G LTE version of the OneTouch Pixi 3 (5.5) 3G but with minor changes. The Qualcomm MSM8909-powered smartphone features a 5.5-inch HD (720x1280 pixels) resolution display and comes only in 8GB inbuilt storage with 1GB RAM configuration. Also, while the US variant will have storage expansion option of up to 32GB, the global version will include an expansion option of 128GB. The handset however comes in two camera bundle options - 5-megapixel rear camera and 2-megapixel front-facing camera, or 8-megapixel rear camera and 5-megapixel front-facing camera.
