Build and Screen
The device shows off a smooth plastic body with black, white or bleen finish. It has a svelte profile at only 7.65mm thick and the choice of construction material makes the Wiko Selfy relatively lightweight at 122 grams.
The phone sports a 4.8-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. The technology used means the multi-touch display should offer great colours and clarity when watching movies or playing games.
The Cameras
The Wiko Selfy’s main selling point is its selfie camera: an 8-megapixel sensor with Selfie Flash. Wiko Mobile says the selfie camera can be ‘up to 13 megapixels by software,’ enabling you to capture awesome high-resolution self-portraits.
Turn the smartphone around and you are faced by an also-impressive 8-megapixel shooter with LED flash, autofocus and other features that will help you produce superb shots. The main camera can record Full-HD (1080p) videos at 30 frames per second.
Hardware and Software
Users should be able to use several apps at the same time on the Wiko Selfy with little or no glitches, being equipped with a quad-core Cortex-A7 processor clocked at 1.3 GHz. But you need to moderate your multitasking expectation given the chip is paired with meagre 1 GB of RAM.
Onboard storage capacity is 8 GB, extendable to a maximum 64 GB via the microSD card slot. The Selfy runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system offering impressive capabilities for your money.
Miscellaneous Specs
Wiko Selfy has a dual-SIM feature to allow you use two SIM cards at the same time. Juice is supplied by a large 2300mAh Li-Polymer battery that is estimated to deliver over 19 hours of talk time. Connectivity options include microUSB 2.0, Bluetooth 4.0, 3G and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n.
But, unlike in the case of the Wiko Selfy 4G, users will not be able to enjoy super-fast LTE support on this smartphone.

Wiko Selfy is not yet available in Nigeria. When available, you can buy it at leading online stores in the country. Wiko Selfy Price in Nigeria is expected to range from N37,000 to N55,000 depending on your location in Nigeria.
