Description

The Huawei Ascend P7 is built of premium materials – a metal rim surrounds its sides while the front and back are both made of Gorilla Glass 3. A 5-inch in-cell LCD display graces the front of the phone, with resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels (445 ppi). Under the hood we find a HiSilicon Kirin 910 SoC with Mali 450 GPU and a quad-core CPU running at 1.8GHz. With 2GB of RAM on board, Huawei's handset should have no problems keeping a bunch of apps loaded in memory. On-board storage is limited to 16GB, but there is a microSD card slot. On the back of the Huawei Ascend P7 resides a 13MP camera with LED flash. An 8MP camera is placed on the smartphone's front, which features "Panorama Selfie". Connectivity-wise, the phone supports LTE, as well as Wi-Fi, GPS, NFC, and Bluetooth 4.0. The lithium-polymer cell inside the device has a capacity of 2500mAh. Android 4.4.2 KitKat runs on the Huawei Ascend P7, but in a heavily customized form.

Far better than you realize.
Phone owned for more than a year

When I bought this phone, I bought it for its looks. It's a sleek, wonderful looking phone especially in black. It's very slim, it's double glass front and back design makes it look like a slab of obsidian rock, and it's perfectly weighted. Turn it on and the screen explodes with life, no kidding. The colours are natural yet vibrant, the Black's are deep enough and the brightness is no problem at all, many times brighter than the best phones out there. It has excellent wow factor, but more than that, it is an exceptionally competent phone. Huawei has worked on it, and worked on it, and in its current iteration with emui3.0 competing with lollipop, a very Sauve and Serious gentleman. It goes through all its motions cleanly, without a fuss, and make you feel very special swishing through its screens as you do so. Nothing will quite make you feel like this phone. A very rare experience indeed.
