Huawei Sonic (U8650)

Looking for a strong, powerful and elegant smartphone? But can’t afford an iPhone, or a Samsung Galaxy? Look no further.

The Huawei Sonic, priced at an amount less that $200 is an extremely smart choice. Running the 2.3 Android Gingerbread Operating system, this is a great value for your money.

It boasts a 3.5 inch, capacative display which is able to house a complete QWERTY keyboard with enough space to type comfortably. Infact, I am writing this now, on my phone. And to be honest, it’s not all that difficult. Especially if you have swiftkey installed.

It has all the features you could ask for in a smartphone. Wifi, 3G, Camera, Microphone, Music, Video, Audio Jack, USB charger, GPS, Accelerometer, (With no flash unfortunately), and even its own Cloud computing software.

And also a battery which is more than capable of lasting for over 2 days with average day to day use. The Chrome border also gives it a very nice sleek and elegant look. The curved shape of the smartphone also fits well into your hand.

The interior of the phone allows you to insert a SIM card and a Micro SD card.

Don’t be discouraged by its low price. It’s only downsides are its somewhat weak processor and RAM.
