Comparisons Featuring Huawei Ascend G510

Short Review

  • The Huawei Ascend G510 features a compact design with dimensions of 134 x 67 x 9.9 mm and a weight of 150g, available in black and white.
  • Its 4.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 218 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM8225 Snapdragon S4 Play chipset, with a dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A5 CPU and Adreno 203 GPU, paired with 4GB of storage and 512MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The rear camera is a 5 MP unit with autofocus, capable of recording 720p video, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • Battery life is supported by a 1700mAh capacity, but it does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • Running on Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is basic and may feel outdated.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1, and NFC, but it does not support 5G.
