Huawei is about to release another one low-end Android handset next month, but this one has a very special feature that sets it apart.
What kind of feature? Well, the phone is a portrait QWERTY model, which is still a rarity in the smartphone market.
But despite its rare feature, the 3.2-inch HVGA display unfortunately washes out easily and has a full millimeter of gap between the glass and the display element itself, so users will pretty quickly identify this as a cheap device. Especially, if they’ve spent any time with an iPhone or virtually any AMOLED.
However, regardless its cheap display, in the hands of Cricket, we think they will be looking to price it aggressively when it launches in August (we’re told it could be on shelves as early as July 31st).
Although this handset has its slight minuses, the keyboard, which features ridges on each key that curve away from the middle, is surprisingly easy to use considering the phone’s diminutive size.
The phone is completed with a 3.2-megapixel camera around back. It also has 512MB of RAM and 2GB of expandable ROM, pretty great for a low-end handset.
So, do those features intriguing you enough to buy it? Share your thoughts on the comments section below.
