Comparisons Featuring Huawei Impulse 4G

Short Review

  • The Huawei Impulse 4G features a compact design with dimensions of 120 x 65 x 11.6 mm and a weight of 130g, making it portable.
  • Its 3.8-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 246 ppi, suitable for basic tasks.
  • Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7230 chipset with an 800 MHz Scorpion CPU and Adreno 205 GPU, coupled with 512MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The rear camera has a 5 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of recording 720p video at 30fps, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • The 1500mAh battery provides basic power without fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Android 2.2 (Froyo), the software experience is dated and lacks modern features.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device has a standard headphone jack, enhancing audio accessibility.
  • Overall, the Huawei Impulse 4G is a basic smartphone with limited specifications suitable for essential functions.
