Horrible

published

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

published

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

published

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

Best phone I have ever had.

published

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!

Decent reliable phone

published

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

published

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

published

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

published

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.

Sufficient smart phone

published

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.

published

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

published

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

published

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.

great don't have to spend a fortune for a great phone

published

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

published

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
