Nevertheless, the star phone in the Chinese company can improve in some aspects, like the screen. The size (4.7″) is perfect and plus combined with the Corning Gorilla Glass but the resolution (1280×720) is low respect to the competence, all of them Full HD. Huawei tries to compensate this with the precision of the camera, 8MP with flash LED and 5MP the front camera, and there is no distortion of colors even in an extreme inclination of the phone. The software in this case is Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean combined with  Huawei Emotion UI 1.6., with an applications panel whose design reminds of iPhone, but the personalization level is so high that the user can change the interface completely. The powerful 1.5 GHz processor is supported by a full 2GB RAM, which really helps to boost the speed. It’s true that the 8GB memory is not a marvel nowadays, but it can be increased with a SD card. As a conclusion, the best aspect that this phone offers to help you give the step is the price, around £350.
