Huawei Ascend P7 arrived to the office - a preliminary overview of attractions

Published:

There are smartphones that I like to review better than others. I must admit, that Huawei’s high-end devices are among them. After a very good model Ascend P6, I now have in my hands Huawei Ascend P7, which in a close contact leaves almost only a positive impression.

About the leading Huawei model I can speak almost only in superlatives. At least when you consider the hardware, the user interface and a very satisfying camera software. I will not keep the readers in suspense: the only unattractive element of this smartphone is the tendency of an otherwise excellent screen to catch fingerprints.

I do not want to bore anyone with the screen’s specification again, please refer to the catalogue card, where we tried to include all the essential technical data of the device. Though I must say this: If you are bothered with a scratched screen and you do not know any other alternatives – I recommend Ascend P7 due to its durability and aesthetics of the glass without any scratches.

The variety of camera options may at first be intimidating, but the user-friendly interface and a minimal willingness to experiment should help every user to master the best settings for each and every situation. It is worth mentioning that Ascend P7 allows to take a picture almost instantly after reaching the phone from a pocket – you just need to define the shutter trigger as one of the buttons on the case.

The wide-angle front camera can take a very good groufies – group self-portraits. Our sisters, daughters, partners and moms do not need beautifying, they are beautiful always and in every situation, but the sterner sex will probably be interested with the feature to improve its own appearance on the taken picture. I do not know whether to forward a complaint to the manufacturer, because, apparently, it does not work on my face. On the other hand I think I do not have a chance with it, because it works on the faces of all the other people in the office.

Personally, I am very pleased that the manufacturer has made the possibility to use a memory card to already capacious storage, which with 16GB storage memory does not happen all that often. I am even more pleased, as I am a boor, that I can receive calls only from a personalized group of numbers. The contacts authorized to call can be easily defined, and in many situations "Do Not Disturb" option can bring great peace and comfort.

In such a short time that has passed since receiving this test smartphone in our office it is difficult to say about everything. I hope that I have mentioned the most important features and things, which I liked the most. The one thing that I am sure of is that I will love to spend more time with Ascend P7 on photographing, web-surfing, due to the support of the LTE technology, and resting thanks to the privacy options. And you know what? I will not be bored.
