Huawei's aiming big with its brand new flagship
With a refreshed focus on looks and what's packed in under the hood. This is a high-end smartphone
Packing in top-notch hardware and a sleek and slim design to boot too. On top
You'll find a five-inch full HD IPS display with a pixel density of 445 pixels per inch - that positions it closely with other rivals such as the HTC One (M8) and Galaxy S
Thin and light design
Ample performance
Price point should be competitive
Decent cameras front and rear
Call blacklist options
Quality screen

The editors didn't like
Childish Emotion UI
Some lag experienced
Non
Removable battery
Pointless software additions
Unintuitive user interface
Slightly buggy
Its slow processor
Slightly cheap feel and often awkward Android skin means it doesn't really do anything to put itself above the competition
Weak processor for the price
Quirky software doesn't hit the mark
Some performance issues
Intruisive interface
Underpowered
Despite Huawei's best efforts with the hardware
Where the P7 falls apart is with its custom skin
Known as Emotion UI. Huawei has tried its best to imitate Apple's iOS 7
Right down to the lack of an app drawer
And the result is disappointing. While there are also various themes to choose from
Some of which look even more like iOS
Some aspects of Emotion UI still remain the same
And that giv
Battery life and continual consumption warnings
Flat design not most comfortable in hand
Some camera gimmickry
Will struggle to stand out in premier pack
Uneven take on Android
Scary beauty feature
Average battery life
Glass bodywork gets messy
Screen could be punchier
Battery life could be longer
Performance could be faster
Regularly lacks fluidity and responsiveness
Not enough battery life for a multimediaoriented phone
Squared design wont appeal to everyone. Not quite as powerful as rivals from HTC
Abstract: And if you're looking for an Android deputy, may I commend the new ultra-thin (about 124g) Ascend P7 from Huawei? I got some snotty Twitter stick for recommending the P6 last year, but I don't care. I repeat my assertion that these are world-class phones....

Abstract: Huawei might not be the first name that pops into many people's heads when they think of phone manufacturers, but the Chinese brand has been gaining speed in the phone market. Its recent Ascend P7 smartphone did a pretty good job of positioning itself as...
Abstract: The build quality is undeniable on the Ascend P7 and binds together a brushed aluminium chassis, tough Gorilla Glass and a 7-layer surface treatment to the back case that uses a spin-effect micro-pattern design to produce a unique look.Huawei has also lis...
Great design and feels wellmade. FullHD screen looks gorgeous. 4G a muchneeded upgrade from last years P6. Best frontfacing camera on the market
Squared design wont appeal to everyone. Not quite as powerful as rivals from HTC, Sony and Samsung. Battery life still a concern, despite improvements
The Ascend P7 is an attractive phone that feels well made and is incredibly thin and light. The operating system modifications made by Huawei won’t be for everyone, and the selfie gimmicks largely feel like a waste of time - but brush those minor issues ...

The comparison is quite balanced, with light and shadow on both sides. The Huawei Ascend P7 comes forward as a key point is the screen and the camera, but only in the photographic section as the Samsung Galaxy Alpha chest out with the video. The model of...
Sharp and bright 5in screen, Super slim and fairly sexy, Decent camera
Weak processor for the price, Quirky software doesn't hit the mark, Some performance issues
Huawei Ascend P7 verdict Open Gallery The Huawei Ascend P7 is something a little different from a company known more for its ultra-cheap phones. It has a high-end look and a nice, sharp, bright screen. Huawei is stepping up its game. But look at...
Big, 1080p 5-inch screen, iPhone-level build quality, 8MP selfie cam, Good rear camera, MicroSD card support
Battery won't last you a day, Slippery back slides right off tables, Doesn't feel like an Android phone, No removable battery
Huawei has a real winner in the Ascend P7. It may not have the same ultra high-end specs as the LG G3 , HTC One M8 , Samsung Galaxy S5 , or other flagship Android smartphones, but it offers strong performance and adds a nice build quality to the mix. Th...
Abstract: The new Huawei Ascend P7 is in the house! Huawei's flagship for 2014 was announced in May in Paris and we've been eagerly waiting for this to land at TechView HQ – it arrived a couple of weeks ago and ahead of our full review next week, we're bringing you...

Lovely screen, fine build quality, good camera, lowish price
Processor not as powerful as it could be, battery life not great
Huawei's latest hero handset offers some impressive specs, like a decent HD screen, quad-core processor and a fine camera. On closer inspection, it may miss out slightly to more expensive devices but not by much. If you're looking for a high-end handset...

The Huawei Ascend P7's skinny, glass body looks quite classy, it has a decent camera and enough power for the everyday tasks, plus the latest version of Android on board
Its slow processor, slightly cheap feel and often awkward Android skin means it doesn't really do anything to put itself above the competition
Although the Ascend P7 is certainly skinny and not too expensive, its unimpressive power and sometimes awkward interface makes it an acceptable -- albeit uninspiring choice. If you can find the P7 on a subsidised contract at a good price then it's worth ...
