2Degrees Huawei IDEOS X5 Review
I'm confused. On the one hand we have Vodafone pimping the Samsung Galaxy S, an Android 2.1 phone hobbled with Samsung's custom interface. On the other hand (in my actual hand), I have the IDEOS X5 from 2Degrees . It runs the all-but-latest Android 2.2, with almost identical specs to the Samsung.

Huawei IDEOS X5 Android phone
Huawei may not be a brand that immediately comes to mind when you think of mobile phones, but its IDEOS X5 Android phone will certainly get you thinking - it's claimed to offer a better experience than smartphones that cost twice the price.
Pros:
- Value for money
- Reasonably stylish design
- Decent specifications
Cons:
- Screen hard to see in sunlight
- Touch-sensitive buttons not backlit
- No word on Gingerbread update

Chances are, if you have had a broadband dongle in the past then it may have been made by Huawei. Having built a rock solid foundation with 3G dongles over the years Huawei are sailing, full steam, into the mobile phone world. Much like HTC did, years ago.

When using the phone and texting, there were some minor annoyances. The sound wasn't as good as my HTC Desire, and the predictive text wasn't as, well, predictive, while you had to be very precise when hitting the keys – not great for somebody with big mitts like myself.

The Huawei IDEOS X5 was, and still is, the cheapest device around with such amazing specs. I mean you can pick up this device for just under $300 at your local Crazy John's and you'll get virtually the same specs as an HTC Desire Z minus the $500 price tag.
Pros:
- Cheap
- Fairly fast
- Android 2.2 (Vanilla
- 720p video recording
Cons:
- A little bit bulky
- Capacitive buttons

Huawei IDEOS X5
We've already reviewed the smart Red Bull Mobile HD , but sans all the Red Bull bells and whistles, it's actually Huawei's U8800 IDEOS X5. We take the X5 for a spin to find out how it fares in the continuously expanding budget-friendly Android range.
Pros:
- Very good and large display
- good specs for budget device
- pocket- and grip-friendly dimensions
- 4 GB of storage
Cons:
- Unprotected camera lens sticks out of the rear cover
- camera lag
- Android Froyo not the most up to date version of the mobile OS
- and not the most affordable of the budget conscious Android group
