Using media can quickly drain the battery. I think that the battery should be much stronger. I set my alar m at night with the battery ¾ full and when I wake up it, will be low and needing to be charged. It can be charged on the computer or through the charger adapter that cam e in the package.

What kind of smartphone can you buy with £59.99? That's the question Huawei has answered with the Ascend Y100, a fully featured Android phone may have a tiny screen, a mediocre camera and average performance but for under £100, can you really complain?

If you're a bit out of pocket but serious about browsing the web, playing with apps or taking snaps on the move, we'd recommend a larger budget phone such as the Orange San Francisco II or HTC Explorer.
Pros:
  • Compact build
  • great battery life
  • surprisingly usable keyboard
Cons:
  • Restrictive and pixelated screen
  • bog-standard camera

Huawei Y 100 Review

The Huawei Y 100 is a pretty cheap smartphone. It's only £79.99 and is a diddy little thing which could be the ideal first smartphone for youngsters, pensioners and those that have been scared off smartphones by the price.

Pros:
  • Neat looks
  • lightweight
  • decent processor
Cons:
  • Small screen
  • camera not great

The new $99 phone: Huawei's Y100 reviewed

Last year was the first time we had seen smartphones drop to a point where pretty much anyone could afford them, as Huawei and ZTE both joined in and provided Australian telcos with cheap handsets. So what does $99 get you in 2012?
Pros:
  • Very friendly to the wallet
  • Surprisingly responsive screen
Cons:
  • Tiny screen doesn't fit much text or make it easy to use the on-screen keyboard
  • Some apps and games can offer weak performance
  • Terrible camera
  • Locked to Vodafone

Huawei Ascend Y100

The very average two-megapixel snapper can't compete with the 3-5 megapixel models of other handsets and the meagre onboard storage needs to be expanded with a microSD card.
Pros:
  • Neat build
  • excellent battery life
  • amazingly usable keyboard
Cons:
  • Small and pixelated display
  • mediocre camera
