The editors didn't like
Midrange processor
Sluggish browser
The software experience isn't befitting of the hardware that houses it. Too often things get jerky and laggy either in Huawei's own apps or just jumping in and out of thirdparty ones
Performance could be better
Emotion UI a touch too colourful
Camera tuning
Its slow processor
Slightly cheap feel and often awkward Android skin means it doesn't really do anything to put itself above the competition
Overheats quickly
Subpar performance compared to current flagships
Fixed soft keys take up space
Battery life
Huawei's Emotion UI copies too much from other designs
Slippery design
Hardware not up to the standards of today's flagships

Huawei does not penetrate the top-of-the-line smartphone sector with its Ascend P7. It simply lacks the first rate components, such as a competitively swift SoC with a high-performance graphics chip. The elegant, timeless design and the excellent build wo...

Although the Ascend P7 is certainly skinny and not too expensive, its unimpressive power and sometimes awkward interface makes it an acceptable -- albeit uninspiring choice. If you can find the P7 on a subsidised contract at a good price then it's worth ...

The Huawei Ascend P7 is a phone I would use every day if the software experience was where you'd expect it to be. Whether it's for lack of optimization for the in-house chips powering the phone or something else is irrelevant. It completely spoils the exp...

The Huawei Ascend P7 is a surprisingly capable alternative to the usual flagships, and it arrives at a slight discount. It could stand to be stronger, but its design, display, and camera software all bring something fresh to the Android table....
