Huawei Ascend G525 Pro Reviews

Huawei describes the Ascend G525 as an entry-level smartphone, but the review unit offers more quality than the low-end term would suggest. This starts with the good case: Even though it is only made of plastic, it accommodates the good 4.5-inch display, a 5 megapixels camera with decent picture quality as well as two slots for SIM cards. The integrated quad-core SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8225Q ensures a smooth and snappy user experience and offers sufficient performance for applications and current games. We only encountered some small delays after we turned the device on (cold start). We can see the influence of the price with the storage configuration. Only 2 GB of the 4 GB internal storage can be accessed by the user, the rest is occupied by the operating system and some preloaded applications. The qHD display could also be a bit brighter and the integrated GPS module could be more precise. Another small drawback is the whistling noise of the power supply unit.
