Design Huawei Ascend G610 can be described as unremarkable. The smartphone is large enough – 142×73, 6×9, 9 mm, but with rounded edges fits comfortably in your hand. The device weighs 170 grams, which is a lot. The boxes around the big screen, but this is not a flagship because it is forgivable.

The operating system and shell


The smartphone runs on the operating system of Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean with its own interface Emotion UI 1.6. The shell looks fresh. Its key feature is the lack of applications menu.


By pressing the power key, we get to the lock screen, in the form of four labels: unlock, call history, camera, and messages. Top of the screen there is the name of the operator and the time and date. Unfortunately, to change the default applications lock screen to the other is impossible. By the way, the lock screen is almost completely repeat the solution used in the shell MIUI.


After the release we get to the desktop, where, as in the case of MIUI V5, can be located as widgets and application icons. You can create folders by dragging one icon to another. On the bottom panel can be taken up to five icons. Supported threads initially present three pieces.


Settings in interface Emotion UI 1.6 is not much. Select the desired effect is present when browsing the pages of the desktop. You can add or remove the required number of desktop and choose the main desktop, which will be performed during the transition function key is pressed home. Wallpaper is interesting settings. You can turn on an option that will change the wallpaper by shaking a smartphone, so there is an opportunity to change the wallpaper on a timer. Lock screen wallpaper and desktop may vary.


Despite all this, yet looked through the elements of a standard interface Android Jelly Bean. Manufacturer redrew not all standard applications. Applications such as a magazine, messages, phone book, calculator, clock, notes, and FM-radio have remained unchanged or have changed only slightly. Currently stands in sharp contrast with quite a pleasant appearance and causes a certain sense of incompleteness. During the test, the interface worked smoothly and without lag.


Among the standard program to highlight the music player. It can enable the display of folders, but there is no equalizer. Standard recorder is capable of recording both stereo and mono sound. There is an application for creating backup copies of software and settings.


Hardware Platform


The smartphone is based on system-on-a-chip MediaTek MT6589. The processor consists of four core Cortex-A7 with a maximum clock frequency of 1.2 GHz. Graphics accelerator PowerVR SGX 544MP. The amount of RAM is standard and is 1 GB. 4 GB of built-in storage available to the user 1.9 GB.


Synthetic tests show why MediaTek MT6589 platform is popular. The device performance is sufficient in order to Asphalt 8 was on high settings with a comfortable frame rate, improves its low resolution display. The lack of RAM is not observed. Applications are not unloaded from memory. Stable performance is excellent, however, as the majority of smart phones based on this chipset.


Voice quality speaker and microphone is good. Multimedia speaker volume is normal. You can miss a call except in noisy environments.


GPS works well but, unfortunately, there is no support for GLONASS.


Autonomy


Device is equipped with a battery capacity of 2150 mA * h If you try, you can defuse the smartphone and the day of active use. In the middle of use Huawei Ascend G610 is able to work for two days. Program to test the battery Antutu Tester issued 638 points.

The settings of the camera a little bit. Among the present panorama shooting mode, exposure metering, HDR, decoration, smile and series. White balance settings are standard. In general settings, you can select the ISO sensitivity from 100 to 800 units. Here you can also change the exposure, saturation, contrast and brightness. Video settings mode is even easier: the quality of the recording, enable or disable tags stabilization and GPS.


Image quality is below average. The pictures do not have enough detail, but the color reproduction is quite good. HDR mode takes pictures with a big delay because fast-moving objects are blurred. Also in HDR mode the colors are too bright. Examples of photos and videos can be seen below.
