The choice fell on the Huawei Ascend G510. Price / performance are here at first glance pretty neat: 4.5 inch display, 1.2GHz dual-core, 512 MB RAM, 5 megapixel camera, Android 4.1.
Immediately noticeable: The Huawei is processed properly and makes a high quality impression. Clear: The housing is made of plastic, but who is expected in this price range otherwise not a realist. Despite the plastic frame, the smartphone is very stable, clean all the parts go into each other. Visually, the Ascend is not a highlight, but also no ugly duckling.
To feel: The unit is in spite of the size comfortably in your hand. The back has a knurled surface to avoid "out-of-hand-slip", in my experience is thus achieved quite the opposite (more at stability). The cover the rear panel can be removed well, the underlying battery is replaceable. SIM card slot and Micro-SD card slot are as usual also at this point.
Judging by the price range has the G510 got something under the hood: for most applications more than enough A dual-core processor with 1.2 GHz clock. All apps work fast enough, there is almost never greater delays. 512MB of memory is okay, but not intoxicating. The internal memory is a (bad) joke: 4 GB, of which by pre-installed apps and the operating system already around 3 GB are occupied. The matching micro SD card can thus be equal bought separately. According to the manufacturer are models up to 32 GB compatible, we use a 16 GB card from SanDisk.
The machine is waiting with 2 cameras on the front camera with 0.3 Megapixel lean is good for Skype, but is otherwise not worth mentioning. The main camera with 5.0 megapixels and LED light makes useful images, but can with comparable models (the Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini has also 5 MP) not quite keep up. Especially in low light conditions (room light) it tends rapidly to noise. The LED light can illuminate any large spaces or farther subject. With the market leaders when it comes to cell phone camera but you should not compare the G510 fairness.
You can make calls with this smartphone also: voice quality when making calls is really excellent, here is the Huawei does not have to hide behind high-end models. UMTS (tested in D1 + D2 - network) is working properly and invites all sorts of data very quickly. If the wireless receiver - at least at home - always a somewhat better reception than my Galaxy S3. One's own position in seconds is determined by the built-in GPS sensor. Who's needs: a NFC chip is on board.
The display is bright, provides beautiful color and is on the move most easily read, the resolution is 480 pixels for the demanding but not suitable with 854 x. Just when you spoil his eyes with a retinal display, and then swings back to the G510, the difference falls on unpleasant.
The Battery (1750 mAh) pulls out no trees: For normal to heavy use, the device must in the evening at the outlet.
Stability: On the first day the phone fell on the kitchen tiles me. My fear only pick up electronic waste has fortunately not been confirmed. The smartphone had not even a scratch - very good.
Conclusion: If you want to display a lot for little money can not ignore the Ascend G510. Compromises you have to make the internal memory and the camera when the resolution. These points add up to a star deduction. However, if you can live with these "deficiencies" get a decent smartphone that delivers a good performance in everyday life.
