Android version and market relevance

In the short description of the new smartphone Huawei Ascend D1 we point out the key characteristics for each smartphone. Firstly, it is an actuality in the market. This model was announced by the company Huawei in February 2012. Secondly, this concept of adequacy in the market at the moment. We determine this according to the software version on which the smartphone is running and updating. So, “out of the box” Huawei Ascend D1 works on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and has not received until now no updates to the more recent version of the software. In this case, we advise you to avoid buying models that do not receive software updates. Look at the others smartphones of 2012.

Of the features that not all Android smartphones have today, we separately single out support for two SIM cards. And we are very, very sorry, but Huawei Ascend D1 does not support two SIM cards, so this smartphone has one minus more than other similar ones smartphones with support for two SIM cards.

Screen, body and battery

The most important thing you need to know about the case and form factor Huawei Ascend D1. On the front side of the case is located medium-sized IPS+ LCD screen with diagonal 4.5″. At the same time, a battery with a capacity of 1 800 mAh.

Main camera and selfie camera

The main camera on 8 MP located on the back of the smartphone. The frontcamera at Huawei Ascend D1 received 1.3 MP that is not much. There are smartphones with a good selfie-camera.

Processor and Internal Memory

The smartphone performance is affected by a lot of factors, and even more so on the android-smartphone, where the developer of the Android operating system and the device manufacturer are absolutely different companies and each develops with its strategy in the market. As a result, in the smartphone you get a hodgepodge: it′s like a “clean” Android, but with a shell from the manufacturer; as though only the necessary applications, but also many unnecessary from the manufacturer. Very often Android-installed apps by default, which you do not even use, are still running and working, they occupy part of the RAM and processor time of your smartphone. This slows the work of other applications and the battery charge is wasted.

So, in Huawei Ascend D1 is installed 2-core processor on the chipset TI OMAP 4460. As for RAM, the memory module is used here 1 GB.

You can store your photos, videos, music and applications both on the built-in smartphone memory, and on memory cards microSD up to 32 GB. You are only available 8 GB built-in memory, so you need to be more careful about what you store on the device.

Price for Huawei Ascend D1: buy or not to buy?

So this is Huawei Ascend D1 after the official announcement. This novelty hit the middle-priced segment of smartphones.

Buy Huawei Ascend D1 you can after the beginning of official sales, which start in  July 2012. And now the price from the manufacturer is known — it′s $210 without taxes and fees. The price-to-feature ratio of this smartphone is not bad, because there is a good medium-sized screen, but a weak main camera, and the frontcamera is so-so.
