Horrible
The phone is good in some ways yes, but for me the front and back camera are extremely bad. The photos are not HD and come out all blurry. If you're a teenager like me who loves photos, this is certainly not the phone you should get. The good thing I found is storage is good.

Excellent fast budget phone
Couldnt be happier with the Huawei y6 elite. Fast and reliable are two of its best attributes. Its an entry level phone with a great front and back camera, both with flash. Long lasting battery. Fast charge. I havnt found a fault with this phone. Plenty of storage on board and a very easy storage cleaner app by Huawei. Mine is locked to vodaphone which compliment each other tomgive you one of the easiet phones you will use. Will definitely stick with Huawei.

DOES NOT SUPPORT OTG
Not happy as you cannot transfer any music or photos from any other device as, the phone won't let you plug in anything but the battery charger!! No other device can be used on this phone. SORRY I BOUGHT IT!!!!!!!!!! I have had it checked by computer expert and we have tried everything. I will try and put my SD card into another phone that supports OTG and transfer my stuff to it in that phone then put it back into my phone. HOPE IT WORKS

Good budget phone with some large flaws
The 4GB internal storage is an improvement from my last Huawei phone, the Y550 (which had only 2GB), but still isn't enough for anything more than casual use. The phone has an average battery life, but this is quickly drained playing most games (which are often too big to comfortably fit into onboard storage). The camera is okay, but I wouldn't recommend this phone for anyone who wants to use anything like Snapchat or Instagram regularly. Snapchat in particular runs slowly and with low image quality on this phone. Even apps that should be easy ...Read more
on the phone, like Spotify, barely function, running extremely slowly. This phone's saving grace is its price point, being available for under $50 at times. For a $50 phone, it's great, but it's sorely lacking in many areas. I would only recommend it for a light user, only looking to use a few messaging apps, web browsing, and some video streaming.

Best phone I have ever had.
I am rather happy with the phone, it works excellently and was a significant upgrade from the previous one. The 1gb of RAM is perfect for most tasks, even mobile gaming and Instant Messaging (im) services. Found it on Ebay for a reasonable price! The call audio is clear and the connection to cell towers and wifi are perfect. It comes pre-installed with plenty of tools to help you with your phone and all are useful. Although not all can be uninstalled.
Overall I am ecstatic about it and couldn't be happier!

Functionality not far off 'top-of-the-line' phones
To me, this comes very close to 'top-of-the-line' phones like the iPhones etc. The picture quality of the screen is perhaps just a smidge lower, not that you'd notice unless you were constantly switching between phones. The RAM etc. is a little slower too. However, it has all the functionality of other high end phones, I haven't noticed anything that isn't there/ missing.
I've dropped it onto plenty of hard surfaces and without any damage as of yet. The only physical buttons are the volume and power buttons; the rest are touch screen buttons...Read more
. This is great, as you avoid wearing down physical buttons to the point where they cease working (something I experienced on other phones I've owned). Have not had an issue accessing any apps, tethering/ hot-spotting, post-update bugs etc. etc. Nothing but good things to say really. Not sure of the price difference between this and Samsungs and iPhones are, but I'm sure this would have to be super competitive. If you want the best absolute best, okay give this a skip, but this is a great $$ compromise.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Decent reliable phone
Decent phone overall. It will do everything most people need to do from day to day. Hardwear is decent, but battery life is the main advantage here as lower specification hardwear is less power hungry. Easily get one day of use from one charge, good rear camera, selfie/front facing camera not so great, but passable. 8GB ROM is rather low however easily expandable via SD card slot.
Mine was locked to Vodafone however after 6 months and $25 later, fully unlocked. If unlocking before the 6 month mark? it will cost you $50 to fully unlock - So keep that in mind.

Easy to use phone
I bought this phone as it was on special and loved it instantly. Easy to use and a reasonable price. The layout is simple and the touch is extremely responsive. I can get all my emails and everything in one place and delivered quickly. I love the ability to play games on it and the camera quality makes for some amazing photos

Great phone for a great price
An easy to use phone, love the fact we could buy it out right and have a pre paid service. Big letters which is a must, can use as a portable hot spot. Has a good camera and adequate memory. Easy to access apps such as facebook. Very easy to make and receive calls and texts

cheap price and good for backup
no other any better phones at this price range. clear and large screen, battery is okay. it's good for reading news, emails and browsing internet, also playing some basic games. 4G phone with gps is good enough to be used a backup phone. it can be kids' toy as well. forgot to mention that it comes with a screen protector.

Strange camera
Phone itself is great value The camera behaves very strange tho and seems too store a photo somewhere unknown on the phone of the last thing that was seen when camera is on without the user even snapping a shot that's a bit weird when no photo is taken an the camera is storing an image

Sufficient smart phone
The Huawei Y6 is a good, sufficient smart phone for everyday use. Its on the cheaper end of the scale compared to other phones but does the job. I bought a protective cover off eBay for it which is good and cheap. Uses android apps, and has other good settings. Would recommend.

This Phone is a piece of crap.
Almost no apps can be added without the phone locking up with a message that says to delete apps or files. Locks up without warning for no apparent reason and the only unlock option is to remove the back and then the battery. Needs to be recharged every 36 hours minimum. If you forget it will run out of battery about lunch time the next day. Reaction time is very slow for the phone and most apps, I'd say all but as you can't load many I haven't been able to test many.

Not too bad for prive
This phone has it all for a fraction of the cost.if you are after a phone that you want to impress your peers with,but don't want to spend your life savings,then look no further than this.
Great overall phone that looks quite sleek,but still sturdy enough to take a bit of a knock

Excellent phone
My Samsung stopped working so I needed a phone quickly and bought this phone for temporary use until I got a decent phone. I paid $109 so wasn't expecting much but this phone is excellent, has everything I need, it's even better than my Samsung which I paid 10 times as much. I love this phone, I have only had it a week but I am really impressed. Love the features, so easy to use, battery life is great, camera is excellent, works great. Hopefully it lasts but that doesn't matter at that price. Highly recommend even for the heavy user.

It's good
Love my phone does everything I want it to but one problem is when I plug it into my stereo and I listen to song on YouTube it keeps cutting out on me it I turn it up too loud but otherwise apart from that it's a great phone to use.

great don't have to spend a fortune for a great phone
since my s2 stuffed up and I didn't want to spend a fortune on a new phone I saw this on special for $99 from $130 at bigw. it has a few great features that my old phone didn't have like a torch and you can move app's into a folder without having every app out clogging the screen and you can access a few features without unlocking the phone. only thing that I didn't like is it needed a nano sim so I couldn't use my old sim card but still great value for $99 and the battery life seams to be better than the s2 when that was new

Affordable great little mobile
I purchased this phone last week from Big W and in my honest opinion it is a great budget mobile
and it serves my purposes as I am not a heavy user of the mobile phone and it does exactly what
it says it will do. I am on a budget and cannot work due to disability so I always look for a product
that is reliable and in my budget.
I would recommend this mobile for anyone who has a budget and wants a great little phone
