Please don't buy this phone – Bought this in 2016 about the time it came out here. I was looking for a fairly priced smartphones the the time and the store attendants recommended it. I thought it was a decent phone at first but I've nearly lost it a couple of times over how SLOW this phone is. It constantly "hangs" even while performing the simplest of functions such as texting. The memory is woeful having a mere 10GB, I constantly have to delete stuff.

This is an ok smartphone if you're on a budget and looking to upgrade soon after but it's no replacement for the top brand smartphones like the store attendants pegged it to be.

Nice design but not the software – Budget smart phone. Have issues when I put the call on loudspeaker. Voice not clear or sometimes can't hear at all. Average camera interms of pixels. Good battery life. Attractive hardware. Slightly large large for holding but no big issues. Overall ok phone. Huawei is getting popular these days. Cheers This is an update on the phone almost after one and half years of use- Bluetooth gets disconnected to my car's and it's not reliable. I don't use mobile at all while driving due to safety reasons.

While trying to put the calls on speaker it takes a while to get activated.

Takes 3hrs for full charge

Samsung lasted better than Huawei and I don't think I'll revert to Huawei in the future.
