I am someone who mainly uses his smartphone classic, ie for communication. I only have WhatsApp, Facebook, DB Navigator and some smaller apps like Amazon and Shazam installed. Also I listen to music with the device. Image processing, multitasking or gaming comes to me very rarely or never before.
That's one of the reasons why I wanted a cheaper smartphone, but that is still timely fulfill my modest requirements.
Superseded by the Ascend P7 an iPhone 4 and an Ascend P6 was as I can compare Seek.
>> Optics / haptics
In this category you can at the Ascend P7 well - if a design for appeals - the least fault. As I said previously, I had an iPhone 4, the design of technically much has been plagiarized. Even the Ascend P7 has on the front and back glass and aluminum frame. Thus, the device looks in my opinion very classy and gives a certain value. This subjective quality is not fooled, however, because the Ascend P7 is processed knotless: Clean and crisp pressure points of the buttons, invisible gaps and a chic grain on the back.
Like almost every 5 inch smartphone is hard to use with one hand and the P7, yet it is very comfortable to hold. It is extremely thin and light, so you can forget about it before quickly in your pocket.
Through the glass surfaces may be slippery times here and there, for example, to smooth recommended to be painted or hand.
>> Hardware / Power / Performance
Here plays the smartphone as so often with no mention in the big representatives of the competition. The processor is made for all responsible. As can be seen above my user profile may, I had no problems so far. All apps are running fast and smooth. Microruckler are rarely recorded, for example, times in the Facebook app or while surfing the net.
I can only say that it is perfectly adequate for my needs. Users who can not identify with my profile should choose a device that is more appropriate to their claims because the Ascend P7 quickly reaches its limits, according to tests well.
>> Display / touchscreen
The touch screen responds always impeccable and clean. It is very accurate and can also be of high-end devices do not differ. The display is sharp crack and presents the colors are very natural and brilliant. Only the viewing angle stability is a little spotty, the display gets a gray veil, if you look very oblique to the screen.
>> Camera
This feature I have not tested enough in order to make an accurate statement can. The camera triggers relatively quickly and for snapshot-quality it reaches all. Prefabricated functions and filters sweeten the one snapping the bargain.
>> Software (Emotion UI / EMUI)
A matter of taste, I like it very well. The surface is again applied to iOS and therefore has very minimalist and tidy. The settings app permissions and energy savings are particularly concerning. Very diverse.
Upgrades and downgrades playfulness of his hand, even bloatware is not so much present, as with other manufacturers. The Huawei apps are sometimes very useful, well thought out and easy to operate.
The software already comes with several designs, among which you can switch to miss his P7 an individual look.
Crashes and stuttering, I could not yet reported so far.
>> Connectivity
No problems with WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth etc detectable. The voice quality (microphone and speaker) and the receiver are perfectly ok.
>> Battery
Unfortunately permanently installed! For many, a no-go, acceptable to me because I did not know it already different from the iPhone 4. Otherwise, the battery will last 1-2 days of normal use. I am, however, noticed that the Ascend P7 long time required for charging but maybe I there simply is not enough comparisons.
>> Accessories
Included is a charger, stereo headset, a manual and a tool (a paperclip) to open the SIM and SD card slots.
The headphones sound as supplied cheap things normally disappear. Ie bone-chilling heights hardly Bass and mushy middle. For some music in between sufficient Audiophiles will therefore not get their money. At least the headphone jack is now at the top of the phone and not at the bottom left as its predecessor.
The charger is whistles when I boot the smartphone - but will not be at all chargers so, I think. In addition I want to ignore times.
A protective sheath, as yet at the Ascend P6 is supplied, delivered on Ascend P7 NOT ... shame.
>> Conclusion
Whoever finds himself in my user profile, a very unique design smart phone in the middle class looking, do not want to spend too much money and with average values in almost all categories has no problem, I really put the Huawei Ascend P7 warmly! I am very satisfied so far and would buy it again at any time. The Ascend P7 is known to be not a high flyer and can with the competition in terms of performance and other things might not keep up, but it messes up really well in any category.
