Ya announced that the arrival of Android One in Spain was being prepared by the hand of BQ, and today was the day that this was confirmed. The model in question is a terminal with restrained characteristics and that has the name of BQ Aquaris A4.5. Of course, this terminal does not lack LTE connectivity, so it can take advantage of the 4G connectivity offered by the operators of our country.
The Android One project seeks to offer terminals with sufficient capacity at reasonable prices so that everyone can access a device that allows them to use applications such as browsers or messaging. The fact is that the new BQ Aquaris A4.5 has a processor MediaTek MT6735M Quad-core that operates at a frequency of 1 GHz. Inside, by the way, there is a Mali-T720 GPU, which is not very powerful when playing games in three dimensions.
When it comes to memory, we continue to find basic characteristics. For example, RAM is 1 GB, so there will be no problems running Android 5.1.1, which is the version of the operating system that is used, but do not expect maximum performance in multitasking. Regarding storage, this is 16 GB, which is a good brand (10,5 are available to the user). By the way, microSD cards of up to sixty-four "gigs" can be used.
Other details to know
Other characteristics that are from the game in the BQ Aquaris A4.5, which we remember is the first Android One that is put on sale in Spain, are the following:
- 4,5-inch IPS screen with 960 x 540 resolution and Dragontrail protection
- 8 megapixel (f / 2.0) main camera and 5 megapixel secondary camera
- USB OTG compatible

- Dimensions: 13,77 x 63,48 x 8,75 mm
- Weight: 115 grams
- Dolby sound technology and includes FM Radio
- Battery 2.470 mAh
The new BQ Aquaris A4.5 arrives in black and white colors with a plastic finish, and the responsibility for updates to the operating system is Google's, so these are fast and efficient (the arrival of Android 6.0). The arrival on the market for sale will take place this same month of September -in Spain and Portugal-, with a price of $169,90 -good value for money-. Good news for the arrival of Android One in Spain, but it will be necessary to see if its options are attractive to the user, especially some features contained but, as we have said, sufficient.
