Nicely designed and very well constructed. Rear camera is pretty good in all situations and it has the best front facing camera we've seen to date. Battery life is decent.

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

Abstract: The Huawei Ascend P7 is the best phone that Huawei's ever produced. That doesn't mean that it's stunningly original, or for that matter a phone you should particularly rush out to buy.The first time I laid eyes on the Ascend P7, it seemed oddly familiar. ...
Very, very thin; Easy to use Android overlay that mimics iOS; Headphone jack is in a logical place, something unusual for Huawei; Front-facing camera with a ridiculous amount of megapixels; Low power saving mode included;
Performance lags often, with frequent slowdowns;
If you're keen on having something thin, sleek, and light, the Ascend P7 is a solid effort, with plenty to offer, from its 4G speeds to the 8 megapixel selfie camera, all the way to the version of Android which will definitely appeal to anyone coming from...
Good construction, Attractive Android overlay, High resolution front camera
Software glitches
Huawei's Ascend P7 is a decent flagship, but it would make an even better mid-range phone. The design is attractive, it is well built and we would like the software if it didn't suffer from small glitches. The $549 price puts this smartphone in dangerous...

Abstract: Huawei is serious about taking market share from Samsung and other Android smartphone makers. Already the third largest smartphone maker it has a product that meets and can beat the best of the competition.Let's put the Ascend P7 in perspective – it is a ...

3.5/5 In the P7, Huawei comes as close to a winning smartphone formula as it ever has. The P7 is slick in design, if derivative, and it works well on the whole. Huawei goes the extra mile in designing a unique user experience and a number of useful app...

Its slow processor, slightly cheap feel and often awkward Android skin means it doesn't really do anything to put itself above the competition
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 slick phone, but it does little to distinguish itself from competitors. It doesn't make a persuasive argument for purchase over a Samsung Galaxy S5 or a HTC One M8 which receive much greater support from accessory makers, and la...
Childish Emotion UI, Some lag experienced, Nonremovable battery
The Huawei Ascend P7 is the firm's best designed handset to date, but while it's the flagship model for Huawei it isn't a market leader. Its specs are more suited to a flagship device from 2013, which places the Ascend P7 in a different league to the One...

From a design perspective Huawei have raised the bar. Several handset makers could learn a lot from its slim design and use of premium materials.There were performance issues with some lags and it could also do with better power management given its tiny...
Abstract: And if you're looking for an Android deputy, may I commend the new ultra-thin (about 124g) Ascend P7 from Huawei? I got some snotty Twitter stick for recommending the P6 last year, but I don't care. I repeat my assertion that these are world-class phones....
