Comparisons Featuring Huawei U8510 IDEOS X3
Short Review
- The Huawei U8510 IDEOS X3 features a compact design with dimensions of 110 x 56.5 x 11.2 mm and a weight of 104g, making it lightweight and portable.
- Its 3.2-inch TFT display has a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 180 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7227 Snapdragon S1 chipset with a 600 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 512MB of RAM, suitable for light usage but limited for multitasking.
- The camera offers a 3.15 MP rear sensor with autofocus, capable of recording video at 480p, while there is no front-facing camera available.
- The 1200 mAh battery provides basic power but lacks fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is outdated compared to modern standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in black, silver, and red colors, adding some aesthetic variety.
- Overall, the IDEOS X3 is a basic smartphone with essential features but limited performance and camera capabilities.
- It serves well for users seeking a simple device for calls and texts.
