Short Review

  • The Huawei Ascend D1 features a sleek design with dimensions of 129 x 64 x 8.9 mm and a weight of 132 grams, making it comfortable to hold.
  • Its 4.5-inch IPS+ LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 326 ppi.
  • Performance is driven by a dual-core 1.5 GHz TI OMAP 4460 chipset, paired with 1GB of RAM, which handles basic tasks adequately.
  • The 8 MP rear camera captures decent photos and can record video at 1080p@30fps, while the 1.3 MP front camera is suitable for basic selfies.
  • Battery life is supported by an 1800 mAh capacity, but it lacks fast charging and wireless charging options.
  • The device runs on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), upgradable to 4.2 (Jelly Bean), offering a straightforward user experience.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The microUSB 2.0 port allows for MHL TV-out and OTG functionality.
  • The phone is available in black and does not feature water resistance.
  • Overall, the Huawei Ascend D1 presents a solid, if basic, smartphone experience for its time.
