Comparisons Featuring Huawei U8350 Boulder
Short Review
- The Huawei U8350 Boulder features a compact design with dimensions of 115 x 62.8 x 9.9 mm and a weight of 105g, making it lightweight and portable.
- Its 2.6-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels, providing basic visual clarity with 256K colors, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7225 Snapdragon S1 chipset with a 528 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 512MB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
- The rear camera has a resolution of 3.2 MP, allowing for basic photography, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1200 mAh battery capacity supports moderate usage, but charging is limited to wired connections without fast charging capabilities.
- Running on Android 2.2 (Froyo), the software experience is dated and may not support newer apps.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device includes a microUSB 2.0 port for data transfer and charging, along with a standard headphone jack.
- Available in black and white, the build quality is functional but lacks premium materials or water resistance features.
- Overall, the Huawei U8350 Boulder is a basic phone suitable for essential communication and light usage.
