Review of an unexpectedly pleasant smartphone, direct competitor Xiaomi Red Rice 2 - this time under the "Honor" brand. 2 SIM cards, a 64-bit Qualcomm processor, a working LTE, a pleasant camera, a lot of interesting features ...
Discount coupon at the end of the review.
Well, let's start probably with the fact that it is Hodor Honor, and not Huawei. That is, of course Huawei, but ...
In general, Huawei now produces smartphones under 2 brands. Honor - inexpensive smartphones for the mass market. Huawei and its model range Ascend - top smartphones, so to speak "Premium". Although in Russia you can still remember the pronunciation of the brand Huawei, but this is not the main reason. In China, by the way, Honor has long been sold as an independent brand. It is rumored that rumors about the separation of the company and the allocation of individual design and development centers, but while Honor is only an inscription.
The first device under the Honor brand has become Honor 6 - a very interesting and pretty device, which is rightfully becoming one of the leaders in its segment. Honor 4 - Family of smartphones of the average price range with good characteristics, so for example, Honor 4 Play at a cost of $ 150 (January 2015) has the following characteristics:

Contents of delivery
Comes smartphone in a small blue color box. Cardboard is dense, printing excellent quality. On the box, the mention of Huawei is only one - "Powered by Huawei" in the form of a small icon on the back of the box.
And the delivery kit is "Jewish ordinary." Charging, cable and paper.
Appearance and Ergonomics
Honor 4 Play call stylish will be complicated. Yes, in our time it is possible to stand out, it is possible, because the screen occupies a large area on the front part, therefore only the back cover and the edges of the smartphone remain.
Given the lack of inscriptions on the front of the smartphone, it can be calmly confused with some kind of flow or EXPLY. But the back is pleased - the back cover "under the skin", the gift that plastic on all its 146 percent is performed. It looks really pretty and even expensive, the plus is also the lack of any inscriptions and badges except Honor.
In general, the smartphone produces a calm impression, with a translate to "Cute". On the front part there are 3 control buttons, and in their "non-standard" execution, like Alcatel (TCL), some Lenovo and other Asian manufacturers. To the left of the central button - "Back", and on the right - "Menu". You have to get used to, and first annoying ... 
Also above the screen we see the chamber for "myself" and voice speaker. There is also a light sensor, approximation and alerts.
The diode is bright and well noticeable, lit when charging and flashes with notifications. 
On the back cover - a camera, flash and a slot for a call dynamics. Moreover, the back cover is slightly rounded, that is, the smartphone in the center is slightly thicker than around the edges. It also allows you to achieve a more convenient "grip" of the smartphone. 
The left edge of a nine clean, the keys are located on the right. The inclusion button and the volume keys are located so that with any hand, they turn out to be right under the finger. 
MicroUSB connector - bottom, 3.5 mm - from above. 
The dimensions of the phone also "medium" - not big, but not small, not fat and not thin ...

Rear cover is removable, but the battery is not removed. 
On it, by the way, also inscription only about Honor and no Huavaev! Under the back cover, we see 2 slots under Microsim, and the first works in 2G / 3G / 4G networks, and the second is only 2G. Immediately connector under MicroSD.
Weighs a smartphone of 160 grams, so you won't call it easy, but in one hand is comfortable. The quality of the assembly does not cause questions, there are no squeaks of the back cover, although the time does not spare anyone. No backlash is also not seen. 
Display
The 5-inch screen with HD resolution is used. Boots the screen with glass, but who is the manufacturer - failed to find information. The screen is made using IPS technology and in principle very and very good quality. Little "yellow" is true, but it can be seen only in comparison with other screens. Colors are bright and juicy, in the sun on the maximum brightness on the screen you can see something, it is a plus. Supports 10 touch, the sensitivity is very high.
Moreover, the screen has a kind of "super sensitive layer", which allows you to work with smartphone in gloves!. In the context of the Russian winter, a very useful thing.

Performance and tests
The 64-bit SNAPDRAGON 410 processor is used (MSM8916), this is one of the new solutions. There is no sense from 64 bits while Android is not, nevertheless, opposite "Marketing value" can already be set "+". Operating frequency - 1.2 GHz, a four-core processor, Adreno 306 responds for the schedule. In general, this is a completely productive solution and intended for the average price segment. For work in the daily processor tasks, more than enough. But the RAM 1 GB, there are no other options, but I would like more, given the "voraciousness" of modern applications. In principle, at such a price of the phone, this is a normal number that 90 percent of users is enough.The phone does not slow down and works quite quickly, it launches and successfully plays a rather complex toy type Aphult 8, GTA San Andreas and others. Graphics are not the maximum, sometimes there are brazing in top toys, but also the phone applies not to top solutions for games.
Antute - 20 thousand. The remaining tests are lower.
Communication and communication.
The smartphone supports 2 Micro SIM cards, both work at the same time (one radio module). One slot supports only the GSM network (2G), but the second is LTE, WCDMA and GSM. LTE works in frequencies B1 / B3. For FDD LTE and B41 for TD-LTE. In Moscow, MTS easily caught the 4G network in the B3 standard (LTE 1800), which was built only in December, albeit with standard small speeds for "eggs" (in comparison with megaphone-yoth, of course).
MegaFon network LTE 1800 (B3), but quite soon promise to pass it in the Moscow region, but nothing can be heard about Beeline ... in the territory of the regions of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to watch operators data separately, whether there is a B3 network or it plans.
The rest of the standard is WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 ... No connection problems No, the phone holds a very confident network, only when the 4G is on, the signal can "jump" and tear the connection, but this is a feature of this range, just a few steps in Moscow ...
GPS.
Since the chip from Qualcomm is used, then everything is fine with navigation. Moreover, the Chinese phone much more willingly cling to GLONASS satellites than GPS, carasing also a couple of Beidou satellites. In general, the Honor 4 Play navigator will be replaced easily.
Battery
The battery is built-in, it will not be possible to change it just that. What is interesting - there is passive cooling on the battery ... I haven't seen this for a long time)In general, the battery showed itself more than worthy, for 5 inches and quite active use the phone calmly lived 2 days and even half the third. In Antutu Tester it is only confirmed. This is optimization! The phone is calmly enough for 3 days of medium activity, in active mode by the end of the day there will still be a percentage of 20-30 batteries. Although again, solves the confidence of the 4G network.
To control the battery and applications, it has its own interface, which is actually able to increase the life of the battery.
Camera
As the main chamber, the "Total" module is used on 8 megapixels with backlight and flash technology. Megapixels are a bit, but in Huawei worked well above the camera and work with a flash - the phone takes surprise decent photos, headed above ZTE Red Bull, for example. Sometimes it is not enough details, the pictures are very soaplied in the dark and clearly lacks lights, but you can get a good frame. Especially pleased that the authorship here is really smart and almost always makes the best choice of exposure and photosensitivity. And the flash is better sometimes shut down manually.Examples of photos
Moreover, the camera really has many different settings, so you can turn on the autofocus in motion, focus on the whole frame, tracking persons ... I would like to give a better detail, but in general the camera was pleasantly surprised.

Software features
The smartphone operates on the basis of the Android OS 4.4.4, and doubt the update on Android 5.0 is not worth it - the update will be the official one. The system runs running his own shell from Huawei - EMUI version 2.3. I must say, I saw this shell from Huawei more in version 1. on the Huawei Ascend P6 and then she did not produce a furor, but then I appreciated the beauty of the firmware. It turned out to be very and very comfortable and literally stuck with all sorts of chips. In my personal ratings of convenient EMUI firmware, it takes a worthy place at the level of Flyme OS, Miui, Lewa and others like them. It will be interesting to look at EMUI 3.0 in the final version (beta already exists on the network). Overview EMUI 2.3 and screenshots of the coming EMUI 3.0 can.
The tangible minus of the smartphone is the lack of Google services in the firmware, that is, the smartphone user will most likely have to download Google services that he needed. It is done quite simply, through the Huawei App Market installed on the smartphone, but the need to do some manipulations to install applications and synchronization of contacts are not happy ...
Manual How to do this is presented in the video below
From the "standard" firmware functions - control of gestures and double-taps-shocked, but there are a number of features of this smartphone. For example, very relevant for Russia - management in gloves !!!
In the video recruit, you can see this in more detail, the function really works. The screen will not respond to non-resident items (stylus, cards, etc.), but the gloves of any recognizes with a bang (rag, natural and artificial leather).
Still small, but nice chip - automatic change of pictures on the screensaver and on the desktop ... Every time something new, even the built-in wallpaper in the smartphone is very cute and I want to get them in other phones ...
You can also change and expand the notifications menu, in the smartphone there are automatic alerts about which application consumes a lot of energy with a proposal to close it (and the smartphone lives really long!), Built-in application security system with blocking individual functions ... Even the simplest application "Mirror" - Produces the effect of "Wow!". It fades and on the screen of the smartphone you can write and draw))
System screenshots
Other nuances
The smartphone is quite loud, although the speaker and one, his quality is excellent. In the headphones in quality, the sound is medium, no revelations here. The interlocutor hears me perfectly, like me, I even reduced the volume of voice dynamics. The smartphone has a function of updating the air, but for some reason the smartphone does not want to be updated to be updated safely, I had to throw off the file itself on the memory card.
I also note the abundance of Chinese programs that, however, are very easily removed from the smartphone and do not interfere with living at all.
During us per month, the smartphone rebooted only once and has no problem with communication at all. The same applies to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, the sensitivity is high, there are no problems in the work.
Video review
conclusions
The smartphone is not popular on the network, and this is in vain. Considering the fact that the smartphone has already been brought to mind and has on board LTE (albeit not all operators) and 2 SIM cards, it is worth paying attention to it.Pros:
- Excellent build quality
- 2 sim
- Availability of LTE for Russia
- Great battery life
- Comfortable interface and thoughtful shell Emotion UI
- Smart Camera
Minuses
- Detailing the camera lames
- Second SIM only in 2G
- 1 GB of RAM
Features
- LTE standards B1 and B3
- Many Chinese applications "from the box"
In general, the smartphone was enjoyable. This is a typical "workhorse" - quite productive, with a good chamber, battery ... Such phones are bought for a long time.
For me, the smartphone has become some revelation, first of all - thanks to a pleasant and well-thought-out membrane EMUI, the working LTE and the "intellectual" chamber.

In the model range of the Chinese company Huawei there is a smartphone of the Ascend G620S budget class. The cost of the device is 150 US dollars and this is one of the main features of this model. It is worth noting that for such a price and characteristics it is the best that mobile devices manufacturers can offer us. The most important thing in the smartphone is the presence of 4G support, as well as a 5-inch screen. Miss this stateput no way can not be, and therefore meet Huawei. Ascend. G.620 S. overview.
Appearance
The first thing that comes to mind hearing about the budget smartphone is a boring and cheap device, but Huawei Ascend G620s pleasantly surprised us. The first impression for us was the back of the body, which resembles the skin, has a textured effect, and in general it looks quite attractive. Nevertheless, it is not necessary to succumb to extravagancies, after all, in fact, it's only a piece of plastic.
On the sides, the case has a metal edging, which gives the phone some solidity. If we talk about the thickness of the product, the device turned out quite thin with a 8.5 mm mark. In the hand, the smartphone lies confidently, to worry about the fact that he will not slip out. Power button and volume adjustment swings are conveniently located on the right end of the case. The keys are slightly discarded and it is easy to grop with your finger, and different size will protect from erroneous press. Full dimensional characteristics of Ascend G620s are as follows 142.9 x 72 x 8.5 mm. With an external inspection finished the time to look under the cover. The back cover is firmly attached to the framework of the apparatus, and in order to remove it you just get closed for a slight recess in the lower right corner.
First of all, we drew attention to the installed non-removable battery, which destroyed all sorts of hopes for his fast replacement in case of discharge. Next, the slots for the MICROSD and Microsim memory card are seen. By the way, to insert cards you need to remove the lid. The smartphone supports a microSD of up to 32 GB and it is undoubtedly a big plus after all the built-in phone memory is only 8 GB.
Display
For your money, Huawei Ascend G620s is equipped with a large screen size, which is 5-inch with a resolution of 1280 x 720 points. In our opinion, for such a diagonal, Full HD permission would be more pleasant, but remember for a minute about the price. The pixel density was 294 PPI, like a direct competitor Moto G. Returning to permission can be said that the best solution for the manufacturer would be equipped with a 4.7-inch smartphone, because the sharpness lacks sharpness, but the display brightness is not deprived. Everything is perfectly considered with the direct falls of the rays of the Sun, but not without a lobe of reflection. The viewing angles are quite acceptable.
Key factors
Repeat again that for such a low price ascend G620S is the most powerful mobile device with a large screen in its segment. The device is equipped with a 64-bit 4-core processor, the main 8 MP camera and 4G support, and these are important features at the moment.
A large diagonal of the screen with juicy and bright colors will fully allow you to enjoy watching video and passing the favorite game. Unfortunately, the 4-core Snapdragon 410 and 1 GB of RAM is missing for the fact that go to the fresh Android Lollipop, but under Kitkat, which is installed in the device as an operating system, the smartphone feels confident.
In general, work with the apparatus passes smoothly. There were no problems with the switching of home screens or enlightening applications. Performance is enough for it to cope even with such a game as Real Racing 3, but without sending a frame rate, we admit it was not cost. Demands the device and if applications are installed. Intermittent transitions and scrolling are noticeable.
Huawei Ascend G620s is endowed with 4G LTE CAT.4, which implies the Internet operation at a speed of up to 150 Mbps. In reality, of course, the mark of the device is fluctuated within 60 Mbps, even in the area with the best 4G signal.
Performance
Huawei Ascend G620s is built on the basis of a 64-bit 4-nuclear processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 with a clock frequency of 1.2 GHz, to help which is 1 GB of RAM. Now many budget models of smartphones are equipped with 4-nuclear chipsets, but not all of them boast 64-bit architectures. If we consider that the device is endowed with 1 GB of RAM, then Android 4.4 Kitkat becomes the limit. However, the support of 64-bit processors was implemented in the Lollipop version, and therefore many may consider the purchase of a smartphone for excessive cash. Nevertheless, pay attention to the result of control sums on performance. According to GeekBench 3 in multi-core mode ascend G620S scored an impressive 1442 points. For a comparison of Moto G on a 32-bit processor, 1142 points received, Sony Xperia M2 - 1133 points and even more expensive Huawei Ascend G7 put a mark on 1398 points.
Autonomy
Ascend G620S installed a non-removable battery with a capacity of 2,000 mAh. According to today's standards, this container is too small for Android devices, and this is undoubtedly minus the Chinese manufacturer. At the same time at direct competitors Moto G, ASUS Zenfon 5 and Sony Xperia M2 Aqua battery capacity is an order of magnitude higher. When watching a video for 90 minutes, with a full screen brightness, the battery indicator fell by 23% (Moto G - by 26%, ASUS Zenfon 5 - by 22%, Sony Xperia M2 AQUA is 20%).
This indicator once again proves that the Huawei Ascend G620s received the battery is not better tank, even in its price range. However, another test will be interesting for the average user. For almost 16 hours in the mixed mode, which includes: a few short talk, 30 minutes of the game and the rest of the time was allocated to applications and surfing on the Internet, the indicator showed a 19% battery charge. Fortunately, the manufacturer took care of the duration of the battery life and entered the smartphone with several power saving modes.
The phone also presents the power to the power issued by the device, and this will allow the user in time to react to possible problems affecting autonomy and prevent excess battery consumption. Honestly, a row in the Huawei Ascend G620S to control the battery charge flow, however, it would be better to put it with a larger capacity battery.
Camera
Ascend G620S at its disposal has 8 MP main chamber located on the back of the case and 2 megapixel front chamber on the front panel. Snapshots made on the back camera are quite suitable for a state employee. The smartphone is not deprived by HDR modes, panorama and range filters. It also has the ability to put watermarks and focus on the object made on the finished image.
When shooting, a close-up image processing is quite good, but here are some details behind the focus, leave to desire the best, especially when there are many single color in the photo. This drawback is shown in the picture below.
Problems arise and when there is a lot of movement on the background. The device implements switching between the parties 4: 3 and 16: 9, the latter is also cut to 6 mp. With video recording a little worse than with photographing, but there is support for shooting up to Full HD.
conclusions
Huawei Ascend G620s will be a good choice for those who need a powerful smartphone for an affordable price. According to technical specifications, the device is superior to many budget smartphones of other manufacturers. For 150 dollars, the device is offered with a 5-inch HD screen, 64-bit Snapdragon 410 and 4G support. Without minus, of course it was not cost. The smartphone is running Android 4.4 Kitkat and the ability to upgrade to Lollipop will not be. The resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels will be more suitable for the screen with a size of 4.7-inch rather than for a 5-inch panel. Small battery capacity, although with a large number of tools for saving charge, compared with competitors.

Yes, once the flagships of Samsung looked like the flagships, now, perhaps, perhaps, only the lid - its texture resembles the skin. It does not get dirty and does not scratch unlike glossy plastic, and it looks beautiful. The lid, by the way, is removable, but the battery is built into the smartphone - for some reason it is impossible to replace it. Under the lid hid slots for one SIM card and MicroSD memory card.

Tell your friends!
Huawei Ascend G620S is a representative of the class of budget smartphones, some countries are delivered called Honor 4 Play. In Russia, sales started in November 2014. The smartphone has good characteristics and affordable cost, but since many manufacturers are mastering the niche of the economy-class models, it has strong competitors. What can boast Huawei Ascend G620S? The review will tell in detail about its characteristics, pros and cons.
Appearance
You can expect that a cheap smartphone will look cheap, but here you will be pleasantly surprised. Ascend G620S Mobile Phone Design is quite presentable, albeit without claiming originality.
The back cover is made of plastic with texture under the skin. Its substantial minus is tangible subtlety and fragility.
If you remove the lid, then this impression is only enhanced, it is possible that it can break from frequent discovery.
And under the lid you will find so necessary slots for the MicroSD and Microsim card. You can also see the battery, but it cannot be removed without special skills and tools.
The smartphone looks elegant because of its small thickness and metallized strips around the screen, but at the same time it lies well in hand due to textured plastic and rounded edges. Since it is rather large (14.3x7,2х0.85 cm, the weight is 160 g), the manufacturer dismissed the physical buttons (volume and unlock) to the right end, where they are easy to get. They slightly protrude over the case, they are easy to find without looking and difficult to confuse.
Screen
The Huawei Ascend G620S smartphone boasts a large 5-inch display, but its resolution is only 720 to 1280 (pixel density per inch - 294). This means that the picture is not so clear, like more expensive models with a similar screen size, however, it is quite bright and pleasant in use. Users with small palms will have to get used to its dimensions.
The smartphone has good review angles, and if you increase the level of brightness, then it can be used on bright sunlight.
The manufacturer still prefers to remove the touch buttons on the panel from the bottom from the screen, although it would be ergonomic to take this space under the display.
Huawei Ascend G620S Characteristics
The smartphone has a rather powerful quad-core Qualcomm processor common among the cost models operating at a frequency of 1.2 GHz. Its interesting feature is that it is not 32-bit, but 64-bit. But in reality, this does not give significant advantages for two reasons:
- the smartphone has already an outdated Android 4.4 Kitkat OS, which is not optimized for 64-bit processors;
- 1 GB of RAM is not enough to fully benefit from this.
However, the indicators of the smartphone in the tests are somewhat higher than that of competitors.
But with constant memory, things are worse. The built-in volume is only 8 GB, which is significant part of which (4.18 GB) is occupied by the OS. And the ability to increase it is unexpectedly small - the smartphone supports memory cards of only up to 32 GB.
One of the main advantages of this model is support for 4G, which is infrequently visiting in the budget segment.
In addition to 4G available Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS and NFC.
The quality of calls from smartphone is quite high. The interlocutor is well audible, and two microphones successfully cope with the function of noise cancellation, i.e., on the other side, you will also hear well.
Interface and productivity
Since the model uses a very popular Android 4.4 OS, all the functions of the smartphone are intuitive and do not require long study and addiction.
Ascend G620s works pretty quickly, turning the screens or navigation in the list of applications does not slow down. The same goes for solitary program launch. But if you simultaneously open several applications or on the back background there is an application setting, then be prepared for freezes.
For most necessary features (contacts, SMS, music player, etc.) The manufacturer provides the buyer with pre-installed utilities. But since they often have smaller functionality or elements in Chinese, they are easier to replace them with applications downloaded from Google Play.
Battery
ASCEND G620S has a small capacity battery - only 2000 mA. It is less than the competitors, but it looks pretty good in tests and everyday life. For example, after an active use day (16 hours, several calls, half an hour of games, the use of applications for a long period) left 19% of charge. So the smartphone charging will need only for the night.
In the extreme case, you can go to Ultra Power Saving mode, which almost doubled the battery life, but it blocks access to all functions except calls and SMS.
There is also a service utility that demonstrates which physical components or applications at the moment actively spend the battery charge.
As mentioned above, those who love to carry a spare battery with them are not lucky, because the battery cannot be removed.
Photo and video
On the Camera Paper, Huawei Ascend G620s is completely identical to the fact that competitors can be found - the main 8 MP (with an outbreak) and front 2 megapixel. But often pixels in characteristics do not correspond to reality. So, the iPhone 6 is also an 8 megapixel camera, but if you compare the pictures made on it and on the G620S, the difference will be obvious.
Photos are obtained by average quality, bright colors, but not quite accurate. The flash blends the picture. As a result, the result is a little worse than not only competitors, but even one of the Huawei smartphones - Honor 3C.
The app for shooting is rich in different functions, ranging from HDR and Panorama mode and ending with different filters. There is even the opportunity to put a watermark.
To take a picture, just click on the shutter icon, just on the screen or on the volume button, which in this situation replaces the physical shutter button.
The camera can shoot video to Full HD (1080 pixels). The result is quite suitable for viewing, however, the focus is often lost.
