Photography brand Kodak might have fallen out of favor in recent years but the company is attempting to cling on to life with the launch of the ACTRA a photography focused Android phone the problem is it's not that good at taking photos at the heart of the camera is a 21 megapixel sensor which should be enough pixels to make your images look really sharp however an extremely heavy hand on the image processing by the camera makes fine details look awfully fuzzy why balance to can be very hit and miss and image noise in low-light can get so bad it looks like your photos were taken on a USB webcam from the 90s the camera interface is very slow and clunky to use too so while you can get some good looking shots even getting those can often be frustrating and it's not just the camera that's the problem with the ACTRA it's designed to look like luxurious leather and metal but that's an illusion it's made entirely from plastic that feels very cheap to hold as a chunky ring around the camera lens which serves no function whatsoever there's no fingerprint scanner for Android pay and the battery life sucks there's a Decca core processor inside which on paper is powerful but even swiping around the Android interface can be stuttery and slow and I've experienced apps randomly crashing on multiple occasions so all in all this is not a good phone it's price puts alongside the Samsung Galaxy s7 which beats the extra in every way I can possibly think of it really doesn't take a genius to know where your money should go you
