In Depth
If you want to save money on your next smartphone, you may want to consider the Android-powered Huawei Fusion. It runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread as its default operating system and is normally available from AT&T for $100 or less.
It has a 3.5-inch HVGA touchscreen display, a 600MHz CPU, 256MB RAM, and 512MB of internal storage. Since it’s a GSM phone, it should work pretty much anywhere in the world. And Internet browsing should be quite enjoyable with HSDPA data speeds. The rest of its spec sheet paints the picture of a fairly good and feature-rich smartphone.
It’s not without its drawbacks however. It seems that Huawei may have cut a few too many corners and the result is a product that gives users a rather bitter experience. Many reviewers, as well as owners of the unit themselves, have complained about the phone being far too slow and inconsistent in function.
If you care as much about a phone’s actual performance as how it helps you save money, then it might be best to look at similarly-priced alternatives.
