The Huawei Ascend G700 is the latest mid-range device to have hit the Indian mobile market scene and going by the specifications of the gadget, it looks like a pretty promising contender. It seems to have the capability to give tough competition to all the quad core phablets which are flooding the markets and all this without digging a huge hole in your pocket. So let’s see what the device has in store for us.
The Huawei gadget that was first seen in India back in September 2013, has been made available in the country only now. Packed within its stylish chassis, is a processor with a 4-core processor that is capable of clocking in a speed of 1.2GHz. And considering that 2GB of RAM has been thrown into the mix, potential customers can expect improved multitasking as well as smooth navigation between applications.
Its capacitive screen not only offers a huge multi-touch real estate of 5 inches, but also has the ability to spurt out perfect and clear full HD visuals in 1920 x 1080p resolution. And as the IPS technology has been deployed in it, the display can be expected to have wide viewing angles as well. The front panel supports a 1.3MP camera as well, while the rear surface has been fitted with an 8MP one. Both of these snappers can capture some really good quality pictures as well as videos.
Although the device makes the most of the Android Jelly Bean 4.2 OS, it is a heavily tweaked version. The manufacturer makes use of the Huawei Emotion UI 1.6 to bring a customized interface to the table. Its total internal memory amounts to 8GB and of course, you have the option of increasing it further by up to 32GB with a little assistance of a microSD card. A 2150mAh battery rests under the hood and you can expect all the common connectivity options to follow suit.
