    An acceptable cell phone

    The truth is I had this cell phone for 3 years and the truth is how things change the cell phone becomes useless, mainly with WIFI. Before in 2018-2019 it was a good cell phone for its quality price, its camera is not the best but it works well, it has good performance but not for many open applications, its battery is good and it is configurable according to your habits, good for network use .

    Cons
    • I do not support some internet connections
    • not recommended to play

    I do not recommend it

    You have to have the 720 resolution option activated to be able to play if not, all games will go to 25 fps

    Cons
    • Processor
    • Interface fluidity
    • Nothing recommended to play

    The battery had to be changed before two years of operation

    The camera is very weak for a Huawei. The worst, the zoom. As you try to zoom it becomes pixelated and blurred.

    Pros
    • The display and physical connections
    Cons
    • battery and camera. Neither the bluethoot and wifi connection are fine

    A good basic phone,

    I have this phone since the beginning of 2018, It is a resistant phone and all terrain has problems with the signals and its tricks like sometimes it comes out of the news or some applications close out of nowhere due to the lack of ram.

    Pros
    • Battery
    • The size
    • The screen
    • The back part
    • Triple slots
    Cons
    • The camera
    • The power

    In 2018 it was an excellent quality-price phone in Mexico

    I got it through a carrier before other "cheap and good" brands were popular.

    Pros
    • It recently had an update that improved its charging mode to let it charge at night and thus extend its useful life.
    Cons
    • Its price is very high compared to the new proposals.

Ki Cost-effective
Score
Not available
What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
