Short Review
- The Huawei Ascend G312 features a compact design with dimensions of 122.5 x 62.5 x 10.5 mm and a weight of 140g, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
- Its 4.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a 1.4 GHz CPU paired with 4GB of RAM, providing adequate speed for everyday applications, though storage is limited to 4GB with only 2GB available for user data.
- The rear camera boasts a 5 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of capturing decent photos, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
- Battery capacity stands at 1500mAh, which may require frequent charging due to its modest size and lack of fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), the software experience is dated, lacking updates and modern features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, and it includes a headphone jack for audio.
- Overall, the Huawei Ascend G312 is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs without advanced features or capabilities.
