Short Review

  • The Huawei Ascend Y600 features a simple design with dimensions of 144.5 x 74.5 x 10.8 mm and a weight of 180g, available in black and white.
  • Its 5.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which may appear less sharp compared to modern standards.
  • Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6572 chipset with a dual-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 4GB of RAM, providing basic functionality for everyday tasks.
  • The Mali-400 GPU supports light gaming and multimedia, though it may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The rear camera has a 5 MP sensor capable of video recording, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • Battery capacity stands at 2100 mAh, which may require frequent charging given the device's specifications.
  • The software runs on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), which is outdated compared to current operating systems.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC support.
  • The device does not feature water resistance or stereo speakers, but it does include a headphone jack.
  • Overall, the Ascend Y600 is a basic smartphone suitable for users with minimal requirements.
