14 DAY TRIAL // Although Huawei Ascend G330 landed in India about a month ago, the Chinese company officially introduced the phone in the country only today.
The guys over at UnleashThePhones report that Huawei suggests the Ascend G330 be offered for Rs 11,490 outright, which is about $215 or €160.
However, several major retailers across the country already sell the smartphone for around $200/€150 off-contract. Check it out here.
The Ascend G330 ships with Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system out of the box, integrated with Huawei’s HAP 5.1 user interface which enables “easy one-step access to key features from the unlock screen, including call, messaging and camera functions.”
We have no confirmation that Huawei will offer a Jelly Bean upgrade for Ascend G330, but we will keep an eye out on this one.
Furthermore, Huawei Ascend G330 comes equipped with a 1 GHz dual-core Qualcomm MSM8225 Snapdragon processor, an Adreno 203 graphics processing unit and 512MB of RAM.
The smartphone embeds only 4GB of internal memory, but only 2.5GB are available for users. Luckily, the Ascend 330 packs microSD card slot for memory expansion (up to 32GB).
It is also worth mentioning that the device sports a decent 4-inch capacitive touchscreen display that supports 480 x 800 pixels resolution, as well as a 5-megapixel main camera with LED flash, autofocus and video recording.
The phone is powered by a 1500 mAh Li-Ion battery, which should provide up to 350 hours of standby time or up to 5 hours of talk time.
“The Ascend G330 sees Huawei, again, set a new standard for mid-range smartphones customized for Indian market. It offers 7 Indian languages, brings together office power and functionality for young professionals who want a perfect balance of performance and mobile entertainment, without breaking the bank,” said Huawei Device India Marketing Director Anand Narang.
