Had no objections regarding reception. Display is LCD, so you won't like it if you switch from AMOLED. Battery sucs, as with every other current smartphone. Design is nothing astonishing. Will get the job done. I disliked its build quality.

Around the middle of last year, Huawei had introduced the Ideos Pro smartphone . A neat looking phone with a set of decent features but a tad high on price. The company recently introduced the successor to the device in the form of the Ideos X5 Pro .

For the price this is a great phone, it's fast, the screen is good, it comes with a 8gb SD card, my calls are all clear and the Android apps are endless, not to mention it is unlocked and easy to carry around. Very configurable re battery and works awesome on WLAN or 3G.

In India, the IDEOS X5 is priced at Rs 14,999 while in US, it is priced at ￡200. The US launch and pricing aren't still made official. Ideos X5 can virtually do everything you expect from an Android (2.2) smartphone, be it the Wifi Hotspot, or 720p HD video recording or running Flash.

Superb phone with excellent features and superb speed of processor.

After the first day I am happy with the phone. The price corresponds to more than what just a few years ago way to pay for a basic Nokia (1300).

Huawei seems to be focusing more on building a loyal following than making money as this phone is clearly being sold below its fair price. It completely out-looks and out-performs all other phones in it price-range, and even many other high-end ones twice as expensive.

Comes with a 5 mega pixel camera which also doubles as a camcoder recording at 720p; Excellent photo and video quality; Multiple effects and great GUI; Very good energy-saving features help extned battery life; Sleek fashinable look; Excellent data connec

Only con I can think of is lack of a manual camera shutter button to take photos

Muy bueno. Lo compre ayer y estoy sorprendido con las prestaciones. Lo recomiendo por su relacion precio - valor. great no problems with the battery lasted a day and now with android 2.3 upgrade you get twice as long, reception was mostly good a few times it dropped out but that is to be expected.

A stunning and stylish Smartphone offered from Huawei is the Huawei U8800 IDEOS X5. It is fuelled by an Android OS v2.2 (Froyo), and is loaded with a 4.0 inch TFT capacitive touch-screen. This handset is greatly applauded in the market for being loaded with 5 MP camera with 2592?

Older version of Android OS; Lack of radio on these handsets; Camera quality is below average; Not so impressive audio player

Recently, I've purchased the handset and honestly speaking I'm blown away with its external gaze. Its touch screen looks simply elegant in palm! Adding to this, I like its 5MP snapper and a sturdy battery backup!!
