Huawei Ascend W1 Hands On Review

31 Comments

1. Can someone show me where the radio is on the phone?

2. can i ask something it has android or not 

3. @kanishq ruhil What Huawei actually really lacks compared to Nokia when it comes to WP is in custom software.  Nokia has all those customizations and applications that make WP better (or gimmicks depending on your POV).  Huawei does not, so your Huawei WP is mostly stock WP.  But that too has its own advantages, like getting updates faster than Nokia (Amber/GDR2 for Lumia was released 3-4 months after I got my W1 preinstalled with GDR2).

4. Do not buy Huawei, I have it and they are not releasing any WP8 updates to this phone. Huawei is just a shit company confirming the chinese product quality stereotype.

5. Cheap Impressive Price For Ascend W1: £70 Free P&P
   Huawei Ascend W1 – Grade A/B
   Two Cases
   4Gb Sd Card
   2Gb Micro Sd

6. Hold the power and windows key at the same time

7. I find the Microsoft sync software to be limited with the phone. Is there a better way to transfer music. The phone itself is very good.

8. bought.

9. power button and windows key together

10. yes it does power button and windows key together take a screenshot

15. According to some reviews, the Huawei Ascend W1 is better.

16. Press both the home button and the lock at the same time.

17. IT DOES NOT HAVE NFC!!

18. windows button and lock button?

19. ascend,

20. Huawei is ten times better

21. Is it possible to get snapchat, twitter and instagram on it?

22. Is this phone's notification light supposed to flash whenever you get a call or message because mine doesn't. It only lights up when charging. I was wondering if anybody here could shed some light on this since I can't seem to find out about it anywhere on the web.

23. Nokia Lumia 520 Because even thought the Huawei ascend has a bigger screen and battery life 460 h Stand-by and Up to 8 h talk time. The Nokia has free music and battery life 14 40min talk time,but the battery life stand-by 330h(Who really leaves there phone for 330h anyway).The Nokia has double the GB storage at 8gb.

24. Huawei defenly

25. What is better? Huawei ascend w1 OR Nokia lumia 520??

26. How do you screenshot with this phone?

27. Im planning to get this as being offered on my postpaid plan. I hope it will perfectly work just fine =) this is my first WP if ever.

28. looks pretty awesome a bit radical microsoft teamed up with a chinese phone company, how awesome is that of them huh. huawei are in a scandal here at the moment still to do with the css but won't stop me from buying this phone if i can get it included in a good deal somewhere. i might have to go to the big cities to find them, i won't around here. might be more helpful to me to connect my operating systems, xbox 360 then huawei ascend in to home network. thanks for the review guys.

29. There's a microSD slot, you can put up to 32GB in there.

30. Is there any possible way to put more GB capacity in it ? Since it has only 4gb in it base on what I heard . please reply .

31. hmmh calls sound totally fine for me with this phone.. i have no regrets getting it.. amazing performance for the price, looks nice and windows 8 phone os.. i got to admit, works amazing!
