Design and Display
The Fero Pace 2 has quite an impressive design but is still a generic one at that. It features a nice minimalistic build with a little much bezel at the top and bottom which houses the navigation touch buttons. The smartphone is also a bit on the thicker side despite not featuring a large enough battery that warrants such. There’s the antenna lines are located close to the top and bottom of the back panel with the camera locates above it in the top left corner.
Typical of budget smartphones, the Fero Pace 2 has only an HD panel. Having a size of 5.5-inch, the 1280 X 720 pixels display sports a pixel density of 269 ppi. Although, this is not quite as good as you have in flagships like the iPhone X. It is suitable for basic usage but obviously doesn’t qualify for VR usage.
Battery and Camera

Also, Fero equips the smartphone with a similar camera on both the front and back. The selfie camera is the highlight as it has a 13MP camera with flash. This impressive especially for a budget smartphone such as this, while there is also a 13MP rear camera with dual LED flash.
Hardware and Software
On the inside, the Fero Pace 2 does not have much to offer with only a low grade chipset to work with. It comes with a Quad-core MediaTek MT6580 processor alongside a 2 core Mali-400 GPU. This arrangement lacks gusto with nothing much of processing power.
In addition, there’s a 2GB internal memory for multitasking and smooth running of the smartphone. For storage, you are provided with 16GB of space expandable up to 32GB. You have Android 7.0 Nougat pre-installed on the smartphone with a little modification to it.
