The WIKO T50 is the latest premium smartphone model in the T-series line up by WIKO, and I got to test it out
There's a lot to consider when choosing a smartphone. Do you go for the best specs to run your games and apps seamlessly?
Or, would you opt for high megapixel cameras that can capture the most beautiful shots or a wide angle camera that can stretch as far as the eye can see?
Luckily, this elegantly-designed, French-developed smartphone has a little something for everyone.
Particularly, young and adventurous youths who want a phone stylish enough to flaunt as they're strolling around the streets of Kuala Lumpur while not sacrificing quality features such as a good camera or competent specs.
But before I get into detail about my experience, I'll start by sharing the things that you, the user, would like to know first — which are the specs

The WIKO T50 comes equipped with all the essentials you need to keep the phone up and running!
The Wiko T50 boasts a masterclass design inspired by its DNA of prominent art figures
When you look at the WIKO T50, you can see that it's something to behold. The developers tapped into their rich French DNA, taking inspiration from some of the most renowned artists such as Claude Monet, Leonardo Da Vinci, and Pablo Picasso.
See how the smartphone boasts a glimmering glass back that captures your eyes the moment you glance at it. It's all-rounded and finishes elegantly with narrow bezels along the edges and corners.
However, do keep in mind that the glass back can be prone to fingerprint marks — which is okay, because you can always strap on a casing for the phone to counter this. Having a case also lessens the chances of cracking your phone should you accidentally drop it.
This French-developed smartphone has narrow bezels and a FullView display that pulls you in
It shines with an impressive 94% high screen ratio. What this means is, you get more screen than bezels on the front side of the phone.
In addition to that, while not OLED, its IPS LCD panel is packed with a FHD, 2400 X 1800-pixel resolution. Moreover, it also exudes bright colours that can make whatever you're watching on screen pop!
The Wiko T50 packs a reliable main camera that captures memorable moments for you
The 64MP (megapixel) triple AI camera consists of the main camera, an 8MP Ultrawide camera, and a 2MP Macro camera.
The built-in 64MP main camera is equipped with a large aperture of f/1.9 and a 1/1.7-inch sensor to capture fine details of the subject you are capturing.
In addition to that, it's also built with a 5x digital zoom. You can take advantage of the high resolution to zoom in the finer details of your photographs!
However, do keep in mind that under low-light environments (as photographed above) the picture quality tends to turn slightly grainy.
The smartphone's wide-angle and macro camera are also not too shabby
Stretch out your image as much as you want and fit more scene into the photo with the T50's ultra-wide 120° Field of View. This way, you can take more in-depth and expansive photos stretching as far as the eye can see.
Whereas with the macro camera, you can shoot beautiful close ups of your subjects!
It's also comes equipped with a sizeable 4000mAH battery and 40W fast charging to boot!
Even if you use your phone extensively, rest assured that it won't be an issue because the WIKO T50 packs a 4000Mah battery and 40W fast charging.
Even with only ten minutes of charging, the WIKO T50 can be charged up to 25% of its full capacity. So, you can enjoy your games and movies with minimal to less interruption.

All in all, the WIKO T50 is an exceptional phone with nice aesthetics, a reliable camera, and provides a smooth user experience. But, is it for everyone?
Although it may not be as renowned as more established brands, this global brand imbued with French DNA is not one to simply pass off.
Reiterating my earlier point in the intro: if you're someone who's always going places, places emphasis on aesthetics, and doesn't mind exploring something new, you can't go wrong with the WIKO T50 as a mid-range smartphone option.
