People need to stop complaining about this device.
Sure, the battery might not meet all of your expectations, but you can get a few apps that can prolong your battery's life- such as battery doctor, task killer and APN block.
I've been owning this device for about a month, and I'm pleased to say that I'm rather satisfied with its performance in general. The screen is decent and so is the camera. In all honesty, I was positively surprised by the quality of the speaker as well. However, when it comes to sound recording, it's not as good as expected.
As far as the software goes, it might lag every now and then. If it bothers you, you can always delete some of the useless apps and improve its speed performance. The best results are achieved by sticking to the default launcher.
All in all, if you're looking for a cheap quality device, this should be your gadget of choice.
And if in doubt, remember, you get what you pay for!

Then you can download all the free movies on Youtube directly to your phone, it supports MP4, as well as 3GP, and is smooth, with a better video player from Apps Market even better. FLV is not supported to my knowledge

        Superb device, especially for price £40 ASDA! Looks like an upgraded T-Mobile mini pulse (which it is). Screen very bright (and WHITE!), a little slow in some areas like browsing but not a fast pocessor, has A-Home as default launcher, works faster with default Android (installed), but nice touch Huawei!! Audio a dream (with a better set of earphones, and Mixzing or similar installed)...Camera decent for price. Multi touch support too.....beats many out their not only in price but its compactness too, less bulky than Xperia Mini Pro....the way ahead. I would give 11/10, so similar to a wildfire but with LOUDER speaher.

                      excellent phone, value for money but backup is not very good but still better than other Samsung devices..
                      its very cheap in its class with full android features..but I'd really felt good if battery consumsion could be better..
                      !!!!

                            The battery life is very bad. i'm charging this device twice a day. 1200ma battery is not enough power provide these type of devices. if the manufactures can make 1800ma or higher battery for solve this problem.
