Without any fanfare, Huawei unveiled two new budget models. Huawei Y5II and Y3II are designed for less demanding buyers, but stand out from competitors with a pretty good look.
Smartphones do not cause rapid heartbeat in technology geeks, but less demanding, or rather less affluent users will enjoy having a pretty nice device. Both models received a plastic housing, with an interesting, brushed back cover design and clearly emphasized, large lens cameras. The housing will occur in the following colours: white, black, gold, pink and blue.

The prices haven't been determined yet, but they shouldn't be high. Similarly, there is still uncertainty as to the distribution of the various versions of both models. In Europe there will probably appear varieties with LTE.
