It seems that Huawei is taking a page out of the local brands’ game by releasing a competitively priced quad-core dual-SIM handset in the form of Huawei Ascend G525.
This smartphone has all the basic stuff that one would look for in a decent Android handset. That includes a 4.5-inch IPS display with qHD resolution, a pair of cameras placed on the back (5MP w/o flash) and on the front (VGA).
Handling the workload for this handset is the tandem of 1.2GHz processor quad-core processor and 1GB RAM. It comes with Android Jelly bean which takes up a good amount of the phone’s 4GB internal storage. Good thing though that the ROM can be expanded through a micro-SD card slot.
Huawei Ascend G525 specs:
4.5-inch qHD display @960×540 pixels, 244ppi
Qualcomm MSM8225Q 1.2GHz quad-core
Adreno 203 GPU
1GB RAM

Just to clarify, does this really have a flash?
I have seen on other blogs stating that it does not have an LED Flash for the camera
AsusFan says:
“Adreno 203 GPU” and
“1,7000mAh battery”
No thanks, moving on….
Chadworks says:
I’ve read in some forum it doesn’t have flash, can’t see anything on the image above either.
JP says:
Quadcore snapdragon S200 + 1gb of ram can play games like minion rush and etc. lag free right? What about games that require heavy graphics?
JP says:
This or the Lenovo A706? which is better? Hope other companies like Sony or Samsung will produce phones with similar specs with budget price. :)
chinitoguy says:
Wow! Quad core and 1GB RAM plus qHD screen for only 7K! Kaso Huawei… I don’t trust the brand. Hehehe…

chinoy says:
critisizing chinise products again! mga ulol kayung huawei phone haters! kala mo hindi gumagamit ng mga china products. pakitignan nga yang CP mo, baka made in china pa nga yan ay, yug e-fan nyo? yung ref? laptop mo? think again, kung yang mga gamit nyo na made in china eh tumagal ng ilang taon, eh di hindi malabong may quality din tong phone na to. mga bobo!
topeski says:
hehehe ang kulit parang telenovela ang SPECSWAR Z dito hahaha pro dami ako natutunan(di po ako gadget geek)nakakapagbasa lang. 1. CM- totoo po china made sya parang bumili ka lng ng wholesale na damit at nilagyan ng sariling brand check nio po http://www.mixeshop.com/ may nakita ako na units same sa CM/SM/MP. observation: iba po syempre ang known brands particularly kung ang forte talaga ay sa products na binebenta ex. SAMSUNG/Iphone kilala ngayon sa smartphones high end, ever heard of SHARP phones (kala TV lng sila)but samsung has wider range like LG/SONY which we can assure of their quality, what im trying to say is simpleng marketing lang po yan. remember that all of these are companies trying to gain a bigger share of the sales sa phone/smartphone industry. they will manufacture diff. and a variety of specs sa phones nila, not for all of us, users kundi para maging competitor sa ibang offer ng other brands, simply business. thats why pagbibili tyo tinitingnan natin, ex: 1.brand name 2.specs 3.price 4.quality in any orther or shall i say sa perception ng buyer minsan prioty and price over brand. sa tingin ko ibabase lang nila ang specs depende sa pwede nilang kitain. im a lenovo brand user i can see that it can perform what samsung/htc/blackberry/etc. can do too sa gumagamit lang yan. “TECHNOLOGY SHOULD COME CHEAP, IF IT’S NOT, THE ESSENCE OF IT IS BEING COMPROMISED.”
don says:

HUAWIR G525 OWNER says:
Magandang brand ang Huawie..actually malakas sumagap ng signal.even wi-fi ang 3G.. sila ang maker/manufacturer ng nga broad band kagaya ng Smartbro/globe tattoo/sun cellular etc…at ang isa pa customer namin ang Huawie mataas ang standard nila lalo na sa quality.
sa phone naman like ng phone ko ngayon na Huawie G525, masasabi kong maganda talaga…high speed. sa mga hindi nakakasiguro sa quality ng Huawie compare nyo na lang sa ibang brand.try nyo din..
rcj says:
I’ve been using it for 3 days! Well, this phone really performs great!
Pero ang pinaka draw back lang talaga nito is yung battery nya! Ang bilis malobat! Sa experience ko, from being full battery, it only takes 4 hours to drain when using the phone heavily with browsing, downloading apps and playing some games.
So lagi nakaconnect sa charger :-(
Sa ibang gumagamit nito kamusta ang experience nyo?
John says:
magandang araw po, ask ko lang kung may naeexperience kayong problems sa video playback? When i bought the phone i tried to access the net to watch movies and vids particularly livestream and recorded vids from shakeys v-league, to my surprise a quad-core phone cannot play these and even adobe flash player is not compatible. help naman po. i have a new dual-core alcatel soleil and it can do the job
rcj says:
Try mo po kayang magdownload ng mga third party apps. Hindi kasi nyan supported ang flash eh.
rcj says:
Here’s a user manual I found on the web. Kindly take a look for more details about huawei g525.
