Huawei Ascend Mate Review

(MT1-U06) Score: 62.1 / 100

Huawei Ascend Mate is a high quality phone released in 2013, with a very fast 1500 megahertz Quad-Core processing unit, a big size 6.1-inches capacitive touch-screen, and two cameras, an 8 MP back side camera and a 1 mega-pixels front facing camera. But let's get into a bit more details.

Huawei equipped the Huawei Ascend Mate with a Hi-Silicon K3V2 + Intel XMM6260 chip, holding an extremely powerful Quad-Core CPU clocking at 1.5 gigahertz with a huge 2 GB RAM. A nice advantage of this phone is the 16 GB quite big internal storage and an external memory card slot, allowing you to install hundreds of games and apps without any problem.

This cellphone feels much lighter than what you would expect from a phone of this size. The Huawei Ascend Mate is quite a compact phone, taking into consideration it packs a 6.1 inches screen and it has just 6.44" long and 3.37" wide. This phone is extremely slim and comfortable, with a thickness of just 0.39". Huawei offers this phone in two colors, black and white.

This phone is equipped with a good looking 6.1" screen with a 1280 x 720 (HD) resolution, giving this phone a very good graphical experience. This screen uses Super IPS+ LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.

The Huawei Ascend Mate offers wi-fi connectivity (which can be provided to other devices acting as a wireless router or modem) and the fastest 3G connection type, supported by HSPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone works with a SIM card to connect to GSM networks.

The Huawei Ascend Mate features two cameras, an 8 MP back-facing camera and a 1 megapixels front side camera. This cellphone can also film videos in Full HD 1920x1080. Additionally, the camera counts with a couple of good features like auto-focus, flash, fast burst mode, HDR mode and geo tagging.

This phone comes with a 4050 mAh great battery that can keep this phone running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it at all.

This phone also features a handful of nice features such as Bluetooth (4.0, EDR) and GPS Geolocation, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The Huawei Ascend Mate is not very cheap considering it is priced $ 259, and some similar cellphones cost a lot less than that. It doesn't matter whether you will use it as a social cellphone, will use it to play lots of games, want a device for work or want it to take tons of photos, this phone is definitely a very good choice for you.
