Comparisons Featuring Huawei Ascend Y201 Pro

Short Review

  • The Huawei Ascend Y201 Pro features a compact design with dimensions of 117 x 61.5 x 11.7 mm and a weight of 125g, making it easy to handle.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
  • Performance is powered by an 800 MHz Cortex-A5 CPU and 512MB of RAM, suitable for light usage but limited for multitasking.
  • The rear camera is 3.15 MP, capable of recording video at 480p, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • The battery capacity is 1400 mAh, providing basic longevity without fast or wireless charging options.
  • 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 2.1, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
  • The phone includes a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack for audio.
  • Overall, the device is functional for essential tasks but shows its age in performance and features.
