I had already tried this phone out with Consumer Cellular, but they couldn't get the one they sold me unlocked, so I sent it back. I ordered this phone because I already decided I liked the phone. It has a screen size easy enough to read email and web pages, but not so big as to be a battery hog.

This is a good phone wished it could be upgraded to gingerbread but can't be done. Has a nice bright screen. The camera takes good pics in good light.Pics with flash are bad.Overall a solid buy for the money.

Behold the impressive Huawei IDEOS X5. It's not the fastest Android phone, doesn't have a fancy customised interface, and runs on a single-core CPU. So why do we care? Thank you for searching out Geare Magazine's equipment review of the Huawei ideos x5 Phone review originally published in Geare Jan...

Not too long ago I had my first Android smart-phone, which was actually the same Huawei Ideos X5, from the beginning it was quite nifty and worked well, but it only was until the first month or so.

The Huawei U8800 IDEOS X5 is one of the Huawei devices launched in India in December 2010 and it arrived to a full fanfare reception. Running on Android 2.2, the Huawei IDEOS X5 is a smartphone. It measures 11.6x120x62mm and weighs 130g, which is pretty heavy, even for a smartphone.

I'm not a very big fan of Huawei . In fact, I haven't really encountered much products from their company (just a modem that we have at home). Anyhow, I let this not be the deciding factor as Huawei has finally decided the pool of companies manufacturing android phones!
