Itel A100C Unveiled with 90Hz 6.6-inch Screen, Android 15 Go & 5000mAh Battery

Itel A100 was announced not long ago, and now they’ve released a separate variant that’s cheaper and smaller in size. The Itel A100C looks like the flagship OnePlus 15 from the rear, but you can still tell it’s a budget phone from the front. This is what you need to know about it, from specs to price. 

We aren’t surprised by how it’s designed. Itel has been copying Samsung’s work for ages, and its recent itel A100 was clearly based on the Galaxy S25’s look. The new A100C variant takes a different approach. It seems to mimic the camera design of the OnePlus 15, almost to the point that you may confuse the two.

Of course, there’s more to itel A100C than design. It’s smaller than the original sibling with a 6.6” IPS screen and a 90Hz refresh rate. The resolution is still HD+ (720×1612p). This 8-bit panel also has 400 nits typical brightness and around 90% (advertised) screen-to-bezel ratio. 

The screen is good enough for content consumption. But the processor is a bit slow. They’ve downgraded the A100C’s chip to a Unisoc T7100, which may struggle dealing with some CPU and GPU-heavy applications. Lucky for users, the itel's latest A model comes with the Android 15 Go system, which is usually optimized for such bottom-of-the-barrel hardware.

The phone has built-in 128GB storage. The RAM is said to be 12GB, but it’s actually 4GB of physical memory and 8GB of virtual expansion. A100C doesn’t have an official IP rating, but at least it scores a Military-grade shockproof build to survive repeated drops from up to 1.22 meters.

Infinix and Tecno launched the UltraLink network free call feature, and now Itel A100C possesses that too. There’s even an Infrared remote feature built into this phone, not to forget the side fingerprint ID and DTS speaker. 

The camera setup is about what you would expect from a cheap entry-level phone. We have an 8MP sensor on the back. 5MP on the front. The battery is only 5000mAh, and itel didn’t specify the charging speed. Itel A100C was seen on the global site without the price tag, though we assume it’s cheaper than the original A100, which costs Rs 22,999 in Pakistan.
