Yekaterinburg.
Today I went to the site of the contact, and there is no longer a "pre-order" button, but now there is a "buy" button.
I will take.
The NTS, of course, is damn nice in the hand, but there is a personal negative experience, and after experiencing the use of p1xl, I am a passionate fan of the huavea.

[shulber]

In Moscow, they are already on the shelves, and here (in Ufa), most likely in a week. Unsubscribe, does not slow down? lay out on youtube, please.

On w7phone.ru write:
Huawei has turned out Windows Phone-smartphone on the principle of "cheap and cheerful." Be careful when choosing - in recent months, immediately from two reputable sources have received information that Ascend W1 "slows down" at work.

[donsergus]

Good afternoon!

I got this machine an hour ago.

Liked:

1. light,
   
2. nimble,
   
3. stuck a flash drive, saw music, pictures and video,
   
4. The camera is normal, I expected the worst.
   

Did not like:

1. The plastic case is not a fountain.
   
2. In the store, the battery was 37%, came home - 21%, it’s 30 minutes to go (Not an indicator, but I will continue to test the battery)
   

Claims to the axle:

1. To dial a number, you need to make three tapas! Is there a shorter version?
   
2. The finger constantly stretches to the top edge when an incoming message, off / on Wi-Fi, etc., but it does not reciprocate.
   

I have not connected to the computer yet.

I will answer questions on a subject.


Someone is deceiving me: I turned on "saving mode always" and connected 40% to a battery

Today I visited Svyaznoy in the shopping center on Kievskaya (the one on the 4th floor, and not on the 1st floor), they have this smartphone in white color for sale. Twisted it in hands, looked. Impressions are rather negative.

The frame around the screen is so huge that this screen itself seems even smaller than it actually is. I'm afraid it will be evident even in the case of black smart.

The quality of his screen, from the category of "below average" - the colors are not as saturated as they should be on a device with an IPS matrix, while pixelation is very, very noticeable. I am not a supporter of increasing the resolution of the phone screens until the fucking quad and full hd are not needed, and in general I am sure that 800 * 480 for 4 "displays is ok, but, alas, in the case of Ascend w1, the screen is perceived as too grainy. For example, the lumia 510 is comparable in resolution and screen size and, say, Samsung omnia M, the screen does not have any pixels.

In addition, the w1 interface is not as smooth as other wp-smarts. Tayla and menus scroll with some jerks, though not very noticeable at first glance, but after a minute begin to annoy.

But the build quality level. No backlash, squeaks, etc. True, the promised soft touch on the back cover somehow not really felt. Matte plastic, no more. Or is the software only a black model?

If you compare with the closest competitor in the price category - htc 8s as a whole makes a much more blissful impression.

Thank. I wanted to take as a gift, now I changed my mind.

Congratulations on your purchase! A couple of questions: how many of the declared 4GB are initially available to the user; the original size of the "other" folder; speaker quality (volume, clarity); how many applications can run simultaneously; how the search button works; Please test bluetooth for transferring various files (music, photo); which internet browser is installed by default. Once again, congratulations on your purchase. By the way, the economy mode is always not recommended. Yes, here's another question: which memory card are you planning to use? Thank you in advance.

[shulber]

About the quality of the screen: Is it really so bad. The review described the screen is even nothing.

[spytn1k]

As for the screen, I would not be so categorical - the colors are really not as saturated as on the 620 lumiya, but they are quite acceptable. Granularity, to be honest, my innocent look did not notice, the screen behaves with dignity. The back cover, by the way, is not made of aluminum coated with plastic, as we were promised in some review, but of pure plastic.

[donsergus]

mol4un75,
Thank.
Available at the time of purchase was 1.8 GB, after installing several programs 1.75 GB.
The folder "other" did not find where to find it?
The speaker is not very loud, average scall, just for the ringtone. After listening to a few songs, the device began to play louder and cleaner (For comparison, Alcatel 802 3-year-old plays louder and cleaner, but he also has a twice as much speaker).
But the headset apparatus shook well: the bass is in place, nothing trembles (Brainwavz m5).
According to the laptop, he refused to take txt, fb2, mb, he needs a flash drive for storage? sent and received: doc, xls, ppt and pictures, mp3 (accepted, did not understand how to send music from it).
Browser - Iexplorer, xs what version.
Why not recommend the use of savings?
Here's a card stick -http://www.ulmart.ru/goods/238410
The "search" button opens the browser with Bing.
Multitasking test after purchasing a memory card.

Perception is a very subjective matter. Some people seem to be huge pixels, I did not notice "pixelation", mb, I do not have such a demanding eye ?. I liked the color rendition, not AMOLED with exaggerated brightness, but Nokia has a better display.

You need to look at the devices and turn them in your hands, but your eyes.

[shulber]

That's right. For such a price, the device is quite suitable for those who want to get acquainted with the new axis. What I particularly like about 8-ke is the work of Skype in the background and the fact that it is built into the axis, so to speak. I would like to hear about the quality of speech transmission during a conversation and how your interlocutor hears you.

The folder "other" did not find where to find it?

Settings->Phone Storage (I don’t remember how in Russian this item is called), there are two indicators in the form of strips for phone memory and an SD card. Tap on any of them and it shows in detail what it takes how much memory it takes. In the same folder and Others will be.

[donsergus]

iz_us,
Thank you found.
256 mb folder "Other"

[vitasich]

Hello everyone, I have been using for two days!
I like the device! I took it as a second device for work (the first ihone4s)
Design
I like the way he looks, I would even say solid! (i have black)
I read about the dissatisfaction with the frame, I do not know, I have not yet read about it, I did not even notice!
Screen
Yes, not an iPhone ... but quite decent for 8990r - !!!! Maybe a little dark, no longer see any cons of the screen. Sensitivity is also quite satisfactory!
Windows 8 - just flies, everything quickly and without brakes, I figured it out with Windows itself in two days - you can live!
The camera - I'm not a fan of photos, but what I was shooting suited me!
Audibility - excellent, no noise, echo, etc. etc. They hear me too well! The usual call is not loud and not quiet, put your ringtones - it sounds quite decent!
CONCLUSION
For that kind of money - the device LUX!

[izy72]

Screenshots pliz. Especially interested in sms keyboard. I write a lot. Mom gave Radar. If so everything is sad. It will be a pity.

[shulber]

Join now. Screenshot of the keyboard in the studio, pliiz. And how Skype works. And you can still upload video.

sfotkat phone itself is nothing :) found in the internet 1 in 1

http://www.fastestpc.ru/filemanager/wp8-kb.jpg

The phone arrived while I was studying. After a couple of Android phones, the interface works very smoothly. No jerks, everything very quickly and smoothly scrolls, scrolls, spins, spins. The Windows interface is convenient and intuitive. Contacts were normally imported from csv. I liked the screen, good angles, colors and a decent margin of brightness. The sound is normal, and I and the other person hear a friend of a friend well. A and plastic in the blue phone cover inside is white, i.e. the cover is painted and scratches (deep) will be white.

[ole592]

I join the written doropls. Took black today. Plastic is not painted. Built-in ringtones are not loud. Set your own. Began to play louder.

[doropls]

The aliexpress is full of accessories already, here is a silicone case, for example:

If you take from 200pcs, they are at $ 0.5 total: D

[andrey.shehov]

Guys, backlash camera button. Namely backlash with the lightest contact of a finger with a button, a trifle, but not nice. Who knows, the warranty case? Or am I not the only one?

[shulber]

Thank. Now I’ll have to look at the Russian layout.
