Comparisons Featuring Huawei Ascend D1 XL U9500E

Short Review

  • The Huawei Ascend D1 XL U9500E features a compact design with dimensions of 129.9 x 64.9 x 8.9 mm and a weight of 132g, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
  • 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 is adequate for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The camera system includes an 8 MP rear camera capable of 1080p video recording at 30fps, while the 1.3 MP front camera is suitable for basic selfies.
  • The 2600mAh battery provides moderate endurance, though it lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
  • Running on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), the software experience is dated compared to current standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The phone also features a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer.
  • Overall, the Ascend D1 XL is a functional device with basic features, but it may not meet the needs of users seeking advanced capabilities.
  • Its design and performance are reflective of its 2012 release, making it suitable for basic communication and media consumption.
