Performance and Software
Under the hood, the device is driven by a Huawei K3V2 chipset with a quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU, complemented by a Vivante GC4000 GPU. This configuration is accompanied by 2GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card slot supporting up to 64GB. Although its performance was adequate for everyday tasks and moderate use at the time, heavy multitasking or graphics-intensive applications might reveal some limitations. The handset initially launched with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and could be upgraded to 4.2.2, layered with Huawei’s EMUI 1.5, offering a modest array of features and customizations, albeit without the advanced functionalities found in later versions.
