The Alcatel Idol 4S passes away at the operator T-Mobile

o a long time ago we were commenting on these pages how happy we were about the upcoming arrival in Europe of a phone such as the Alcatel Idol 4S, a model that happens to be one one of the most interesting with Windows 10 Mobile and which hit the markets in 2016.

A _smartphone_ that at first it seemed we would not see in these lands, because in the United States the operator T-Mobile had taken over its exclusivity and it seemed difficult for it to cross borders. But the US operator's interest in this model has not lasted long.

And it's just over half a year since it arrived in their catalog and from T-Mobile they have decided to cease sales of Alcatel Idol 4SA high-end terminal that came at a price of $649 to go head-to-head with the HP Elite x3. And its specifications do not go unnoticed:

In fact the Alcatel phone was the first mobile phone under Windows Phone capable of having Virtual Reality support In fact it came with a gift of VR glasses in the United States. But something began to change when it was drastically reduced to $288. It seemed that they wanted to get rid of it and that's how it was.

And it is that the terminal that could only be purchased via the web has been eliminated judging by one of the operator's employees, a sales assistant _online_:

We don't know if it is a temporary absence or as it seems to be, a complete disappearance from the catalog due to low demand for the deviceWe will have to wait for it to go on sale in Europe between the months of June and September, as we already said at the time, at a price of 599 euros.
