Short Review

  • The Huawei U8650 Sonic features a compact design with dimensions of 116.3 x 60.5 x 11.9 mm and a weight of 120g, making it lightweight and portable.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
  • Performance is supported by 512MB of RAM and a modest storage capacity of 512MB, suitable for simple applications but limited for multitasking.
  • The rear camera is 3.15 MP, capable of capturing basic images, though it lacks advanced features like optical image stabilization and video recording is limited to 480p.
  • The 1400mAh battery provides basic longevity but does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • Running on Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is dated and lacks modern features.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, with NFC support included.
  • The device does not offer water resistance and is available only in black.
  • Overall, the U8650 Sonic is a basic smartphone that fulfills essential functions but falls short in performance and modern capabilities.
