I've had one for a couple of months now. It is so ridiculously cheap that you'd almost want to take its shortcomings for granted. I bought it as a prepay phone here in Switzerland and paid 40 swiss (= same in USD) and with that I got 10,- prepay credit, so THIRTY bucks net!. It does everything I expect it to. My only gripe is speed. To switch between apps sometimes takes a long time. But then again, for thirty bucks ..... I'm not complaining.
I've watched several reviews that you made. And all I can say is, "Impressive!" Fast, short, concise, and full of info! Thanks a lot! :-) Peace and blessings from the Philippines. :-)
I so love my huawei ascend y300 phone. No regret of having this smartphone. Very nice. Nothing to say much. But its very good. Something that you should buy.
Nice quick review man, Just a suggestion you might wanna replace that dull mouse with something more colorful for a quick camera impression. Anything like a rubric cube or crayon box would be great. Enjoyed the videos, keep up the good work.
Thanks for the response. no luck online, everybody is selling only white version and the package includes an extra black panel. so i assume there wont be any black handset.
Good review, i am wondering which phone to get and i need pro help between : HUAWEI ASCEND Y300 ZTE GRAND X IN ALCATEL ONE Touch M'Pop ZTE BLADE III PRO Thanks for the help.

what about the Hindi support ? I have seen in many android phones either the Hindi fonts are broken or shown in boxes .Any way superb review !! Thanks for sharing !!
To avoid the clunky UI, where you have to keep all apps on the home screens, try the Nova Launcher. You could set it to the default so pressing the home button would take you straight there (you can undo this by going into the apps settings and scrolling down to the clear defaults button).
Great overview. But I'm having a MAJOR problem with my Y300. How can I answer an incoming phone call? I've tried pressing the alert button and the green phone icon when there's an incoming call. But nothing happens and I miss the call. Any help appreciated. Thanks, b
you can buy the huawei ascend g510 instead. it is priced at 5990 php but i believe its price had decreased already. watch reviews of that. hope this helps.
Bro, at gsm arena’s user opinion’s page, people are saying that when calling using viber, people at the other end couldn't hear them. How true is this? And does real racing 3 run smooth? PLEASE answer. I’m thinking of buying this over s3 mini. The y300 is priced half than s3 mini. I want something jelly bean that's perfect in the hand. Should be able to play real racing 3 "SMOOTHLY." I don’t like 4.5 inchers above. Your response is a VERY big help. Thankz dude. I have liked ur video.
I plan to buy this probably by the end of October. The thing is, my friend told me that there will be lags when I play games like minion rush because it has 1GHz dual core processor "ONLY". He said that I must go for 1.5 if i want to play those games. But I'm a student and have a very limited budget. I can only for 6k php. That's my max budget. Can you give me advices?
How about applications? I'm interested in GPS, Google Maps, Facebook and other heavy ones? Can the phone run them smoothly. Would love to know that before i order.
my boyfriend got it toady and i loved it and thinking of getting it tommorow. is it as good as the iphone and samsung or how can you compare it to them? need your help :)

The question is: does it blend? Seriously, a really good smartphone for just above 120 Euros. The tech isn't breathtaking, but it gets the job done well enough.
I have this phone, you can have Skype on it (video calls too-it has a front camera and a microphone on the headphones), and WhatsApp and Viber, anything that's available at Google Play. The down side is that it's slow, just 256MB of RAM for JellyBean 4.1.1. I have a problem with sending text messages and generally opening messages and the conversations... The camera is pretty good, a lot of times blurry because of the autofocus which you can not control. Also, it's somewhat frustrating that you

good review, well done mate, how about gorilla glass like ascend g300 ?
Your english is fine, don't worry. The accent makes it authentic.

You can do that with Ringdroid application and create your own ringtones as well.
thanks for the quick review. it was helpful
i only see flipkart selling a white color handset. any idea where to get a black one from?
A good in depth review, nice work.
Can you have a interface walktrough? Like messaging, contacts, calendar and other things Huawie Y300 has to offer in everyday use. Thanks!

The camera quality seems to be good. But, is the led flash is good enough to capture photos in dim light?
Thanks Much. I am not able to find black color handset like the one you review here. any idea who is selling black handset?
This isn't bad for the price. Considering it does most of the feature a more expensive phone do.
Great overview. But I'm having a MAJOR problem with my Y300. How can I answer an incoming phone call? I've tried pressing the alert button and the green phone icon when there's an incoming call. But nothing happens and I miss the call. Any help appreciated. Thanks, b
