Huawei Ascend Y330 - User Reviews

  • Still going strong! Have other phones too but this one never fails, when it is time for a new one I hope it is at least as good as this one.

  • my phone is blacking out all time.what could be the problem?

  • You served me well, Y330. 3-4 years, and still going. Though alas.. it's time for an upgrade. It is TIME to upgrade to one of your newer siblings, of the P line.

  • best phone, I bought it in 2016 and am still using it and it has not given me any problem. although it has small OS but still it's a good phone.

  • Good old phone. You served me well, and I just had to upgrade

  • I have had this phone for 3.5 years and in my opinion its very good for its price. I bought something else, i dont remember the model for similiar price and it was complete garbage. I am about to buy a new phone, just because it doesnt support new OS(8.0 android) and some programs cant recieve updates anymore. Also problem is that it doesnt have front camera and it doesnt flash when photographing, so you have to have good lighting from other sources. I watch youtube, surf net, install 95% of programs without any problems. My phone is so much personalized with many different apps which all fit into those 4 gb. I bought 16gb sd card and i can easily use my phone as USB Flash drive and transfer large video files to look later at some party:)

  • Is this comment about a Huawei Ascend Y330 ? Than I would like to know the name of that app. I still have that good old phone but its no longer supported by updates from Huawei and this might help to let me use it an extra few years longer ..

  • I've had this phone for around 2 years and haven't used most of the time because it is utter shit. The problems started from day 1. It is supposed to be "smart" phone but all applications run so slow and laggy that it's not even worth opening them. The touchscreen is a disaster, sometimes you cannot even slide to answer/reject a call. The camera is very shitty quality. Opening a browser takes ages. Basically you can use it only for calls and it's not even good for this too. There is no reason to buy this phone, not even 1 strong side. If you need a phone just for the calls go buy something old and reliable, this phone is the worst purchase you can possibly make.

  • I've been using this phone for almost 5 years now & it's a great phone that can do what my new Samsung tablet is capable of. You can use Google Play, Email, Netflix, take pictures, (which are pretty good) use your wifi instead of your data plan & quickly go online to download games, movies or chat to your friends. It's built-in storage is 4GB, but I don't mind that since you can add up 32GB more. Overall, it's an inexpensive phone that has a lot to offer that usually costs a lot more on other phones & I'm very happy with it.

  • An app can't do all this

  • After purchasing an app in Google play store performance of a phone has increased,touch screen sensitivity has also increased,games run smoothly,music and video quality has increased,also display colour is good after purchasing jet audio plus in play store.

  • In order to maximize performance and reduce overheating you have to purchase any app in the play store.

  • mine was a greate phone indeed because it has never given me a problem but it has been stolen and i don't know hw to trace it i still has the box and imei number can anyone help me please. the reason why i am after it is because it was mi 1st smart phone i had..

  • nooooo! it does not, mine works great

  • me too

  • It's about two years now and the phone has started to fail backing up data is any solution

  • Same

  • I own this phone for about 3 years. At this point I have problems installing new apps, since the installation needs over 4 times the size of the file (f.e. 200 MB to download a 30 MB app). Other than that, the phone is slow, shuts down sometimes, but works just fine for me. I use mainly wi-fi, so a € 2,50 per month (yes, you read it correctly) are all I need to cover my monthly use on a sim-only base.

  • Worst phone I have ever owned.

  • Agh. I used to have two of these. It's really laggy and I had to take it to get fixed over 5 times, because it crashed a lot and in the end it only showed me the Huawei logo. Good for a child's first phone, but I couldn't really recommend this to anyone else.

  • it z good

  • Yes in some models y330 is dual sim like y330 U11

  • They overheat when

  • I have problem with my Huawei Y330-U01. The android has stopped working. can you please help me solve it.

  • Cheap but it stands against accidental falls

  • its there whatsup application

  • Its OK for a 2013 phone. But the RAM, is fu***ng sh*t.

  • Y 330 IS good but bt just for a short time.i am very disappointed with your phones.it failes to update on its on.i took back and i went there someone was telling me its lost.but he was saying its a small issue.upgrade your phones.you will lose people and business..

  • Y330 is really great but after 1½ years it starts overheating very much. By that you should have bought another phone.

  • nic 4n but only 4 a short while

  • system readonly cant update,,

  • Omg Huawei is awesome but yeah Y330 is like shit. Try P9 =))

  • I've been using this phone for over a year now and honestly I think its only meant for calls and texts , it has a very slow speed and does not favour big social media apps. For a person like me it is like the worst phone I ever had, never will I purchase a Huawei product - SAMSUNG HERE I COME

  • I have Huawei Y330 model, the phone can't rotate even if it's on. What do I shop

  • rescently, I bought Y330-U11 V100R00C00B112 it is very clear.But after two weeks the auto rotate stopped working. I need your help.

  • Hey you good. whats been blocked the network or the application aces

  • I would like to buy one for myself from MTN .Plz advise.

  • my phone has been block it is not functioning how will i manage to unblock it??? please help!!

  • Phone is good for value and in some areas like the weather widget very advanced. Memory is too little

  • How can I remove my Google App? Please help me because the instructions are not very good. Thank you in advance.

  • its not bad really for like a phone that is just for calls and texts but otherwise from that it sucks it lags you cannot remove the apps for internal storage to the sd car and the internal memory is always full no matter how much apps you uninstall its pretty much your average cheap phone really

  • Search for the official huawei page Go to downloads Search for Huawei y 330 emui Download Copy to memory card Insert memory card Press the power and both volume buttons until an install screen appears

  • Press the power and volume down buttons at the same time

  • It really sucks Lags on screen Hangs Crushes easily

  • Please tell me how to take screenshots using ascedlnd y 330

  • I bought this for my 70 year old mum on a pay as you grow old deal,it's her first smartphone. I think it's a good deal and ideal for the very young the elderly and those on a budget.only trouble is she's now pestering me for a tablet.

  • please can some one tell me how can i re-stalled the operating system huawei accend Y330-U10 or the link i can go. thanks

  • This phone is a good phone and you get what u pay for it has a good camera for a 100 euro phone but it will be good if there will be a update for lollipop or better .

  • Agree with every thing, terrible choice, many better budget options

  • Screen takes off scrolling on its own at times. Wife refused to use it after locking up on her frequently. Figured, I would give it a try. I lasted 3 days before I ordered the Moto 4G on sale at Amazon, hoping I will be much better off. Recommend picking another phone than The Y330, I have nothing against Huawei, just think you can chose a better budget smartphone than this model. I actually paid more for the Y330 (1.5 years ago) than I did the Moto 4G (last week) that on paper has much better specs. I will be able to compare the two soon. If you are an Amazon Prime member and get there while the sale is on the Moto 4G 16GB is at $149.00 with a $25.00 discount applied at checkout bringing this phone down to around $125.00. The Y330 is still listed at $170.00 on some sites, although I paid $145.00 a year and half ago.

  • Welp, you won't be playing Pokémon GO on this, as it is stuck on Android 4.2 with no possibility of upgrading (not even with CyanogenMod and such) Otherwise it has never let me down for its phone and texting. The only negative I've got is that the calling app it uses by default is a bit annoying if you call a lot of answering machines. The keypad gets locked whenever you're in a call to prevent accidental dialing, and the way to unlock it is to double tap. The screen also turns off almost immediately when you're in a call. This means that when you're asked to "press 2" or whatever, you have to: Press the wake-up button, Double-tap on the lock carefully, Press 2. By then you've probably timed out on the answering machine or triple-tapped the wrong thing accidentally. I miss physical buttons :(

  • Can someone briefly explain how ROMs work? Thanks

  • It always writes emergency yet the network is there,why?

  • No blaming! you get what u paid. But for me the most rough tough phone ever. It drops on concrete roads, house floor etc for uuncountable times. Once falled backcover,battery,and handset all seperate. Some time it falls even on slight mud. But still perfectly alright almost 2 yeara im using.

  • get a life you get what you paid for a cheap phone,ive got one and had better reception in fiji than a guy who had a $1,000. dollar phone.i paid $69. from the ware house it works great.

  • This phone is... Usable.... If your desperate. It is strictly for emergency calls and texts only. Anything else, just wrecks it. It's not the phones fault I guess. Just really shit specs. I got it in nz for about $99.99. Looks ok on paper, in practise... Eeehhhh. So no games or social media. It can handle a little YouTube. But low quality (480p) and sometimes can freeze and lag. If you use anything other than the texting and calls. The ram just crashes and it lags almost beyond use. If you type to fast on the keyboard it lags, REALLY BADLY. like how when you hold a key it changes to a symbol, that's what it does all the time. Not very good. Horrible even. But usable.

  • Well I have had this phone for 18 months with no problems. All I do is make calls and use internet. Stupidly I decided to buy a newer phone, Samsung galaxy mini j1. Problems from day 1. Bought the y330 in UK and the J1 in Thailand. Are phones sold in Europe superior to those sold in Asia?

  • Huawei y339 SUCK! BIG TIME. It got no language support. .. Touch Screen is Horrible.. Always lagging ... internal memort in reality is like 1.6 GB, but you can select SD storage as main, which is good. It is horrible, but wat more superior than Samsung young! Only bought it because I needed a 3G mobile to use the GPS for a trip..STINKS can't uodate No rom

  • Don't bother getting this phone, takes to long to load! Buy downloading one app it uses up your storage! When texting it converts to an MMS which charge's you, When i put the volume up to listen to music it goes on to 0 so i have KEEP putting it up! Its rubbish and horrible when i have my phone on when i click on something its STILL SO SLOW!!!

  • It's good but not great get the Huawei ascend y3/360

  • hi guys i want to buy this phone. is it relly good phone and cant this mobile open most of game?? pleas reply

  • The Ascend Y330 is a good smartphone for basic use (calling, messaging, browsing the web), although you get what you paid for, so don't expect any heavy 3D games to work like a charm on this device. You might notice some lag here and there, but most of the time, it works just fine.

  • am using this phone from uganda,i like it so much becoz it makes feel comfortable when am using it

  • This phone is OK for regular basic use in the city but if you want to use in cottage country doesn't work At least for me .

  • Great value phone, punches way above it's price tag, depends what you want your phone for really, this phone plays most games with no probs. The likes of twitter and face book also no probs, if you want to make video calls for example there is no front camera, the camera is ok but if you want high quality fashion pic, then you get what you pay for. All in all its a great phone for the price. I would recommend this phone all day long.

  • nope no no

  • im not sure is i should get it ? should i?

  • I bought this phone as it is very user friendly only issue is it overheats following that it becomes irresponsive .. I have not installed loads of apps but when using FB, Youtube, & Candy crush game.. it starts to overheat at a point that i need to remove the battery to avoid further issues.. Any help and advise will be definitely most welcome .. Thanks in advance

  • Hey my friends I need your help my huawei 330 phone icone ,SMS icons and contact disapier so how I can fix this

  • LOL noob, just change the launcher, we use android not IOS so go ahead and mod the crap out of the phone.

  • I play games like Beat Hazard Ultra and Minecraft on this phone and it does really well, just make yourself sure to get a RAM booster software so you can use it before you play, also put your phone on airplane mode and it will be good for some light gaming!

  • Got this phone as a starter smartphone for my mum and was pleasantly surprised - so much so I purchased one for myself and happily using it. After 1st ever smartphone entry level Nokia Lumia home buttons stopped working - on further research this is a fairly common thing and wary of buying another one, though the Lumia phones are quite nice - but because of the common fault opted for Huawei and didnt want to spend a huge amount of money. I noticed that the default setting is wi-fi to be on and there is another setting to have wi-fi always active - these need to be switched off as soon as you get your phone - or it will eat up all your credit and data - Even if you have an all inclusive package with data and calls, it will eat through it - so switch it off asap. There is alot of bloatware on the phone and I urge you to read the permssions. some of the apps makes direct calls and can send message to people in your calender without your knowledge - I disabled as much of these apps I could and kept the apps that relate to the functions I need - - so you may want to have a look at those and see if you really need it -these will also eat your credit - doing this process speed up the phone considerably and using google chrome was superfast fast for the searches I did after disabling quite a few apps that were not necessary for me.

  • Hello. I had just recenty bought this phone for my mother as a present. As we all can agree, mothers and fathers are not usualy very technicaly advanced as far as smart phones and PC go in general. So this smart phone is very good for such a person because it is simple, basic and still gives a good experiance for a entry level user. As you might guess for the price of 60 eur you do not get a HIGH end smart phone but rather a compromise between price and performance. I had tested it before I gave it away and was pleasantly suprised. It works well considering the lack of CPU power and RAM. To summ it up, IT WORKS SUPER. Yes if you go to youtube and watch HD video it starts to lag a bit but on a screen this size, who cares if it is 1080p or 720p. It's not like you can see all the details any way. This phone is not for gaming. Some simpler games run good but other hardware thirsty ones not so much. The display itself is small and you do have promblems writing text messages if your fingers are Hulk like. The cool feature of the phone is it's ability to change themes. It has no "menu" area for apps, rather all of them are on the "desktop". The phon, does not have a front faceing camera so no selfies possible :( Back camera si not that good. At 3Mpix it's not the best, but in good light conditions it makes a fairly good photo. There is no HD video only VGA. The sound form the mono speaker is fairly loud but the quality of sound is on the low medioum to low side. But again, it is to be expected. On the feel side, the phone it's plastic and the case and buttons feel cheap. The colour variations for the back cover are a bit wierd as well, since the fron panel is default black. Over all this is a good entry level phone.

  • total call time

  • No, you can't. This phone is basic standard. Not for big games.

  • Not sure what you mean by "pick a call"?

  • hi how do i pick a call using huawei y330

  • If using default browser: whilst actually using the browser, click top right on browser,now click settings, then click privacy and security,and then click clear history.

  • Hi, how does one delete browsing data, I went into settings but no good, any advice please?

  • yes its gud and its working 4 mi. Thanx

  • i like it

  • Yeah, well worth the price on offer at the moment, will play most apps, good starter android phone. Would recommend

  • Sorry this phone did not live up to your high standards

  • This phone is the stupidess phone ever.it is so slow.

  • 512RAM on a 1.3GHz is always going to struggle. It was maybe designed for Lollipop ART runtime, not Jb Dalvik. Maybe Stock UI would've worked. Adding manufacturer Emotion UI not working with low RAM.

  • Yes and veryyyyy good I have played it in my phone

  • I like it its slow but for such a cheap phone ($30) , its perfect.

  • Terrible Emotion UI, taking it back to shop. Obvious Chinese monitoring software, lags as it's always going thru your files, contacts & photos. Childish whitescreen design like a Nokia Asha. Panicking kernel all time. Slow surf, runs hot. Blocked downloads from Opera Turbo servers. Poor https. Phone isn't much into Freedom, folks. Welcome to China.

  • I have this phone and i have one quaestion. Why my phone have resistive screen???

  • Is this phone good ?

  • 1. This phone.over heats. How can I overcome this? 2. My phone is over consuming mobile data.

  • Can dead trigger 2 play on this phone?

  • Yes, shark evolution can be dl and played on this phone, no probs

  • Just slide to green phone on screen when you receive a call

  • I have the same problem with mine............do you have an answer now for the problem?

  • Take photo on phone everyone try to send it says it to big and will not send photo any ideas ?

  • This phone is enough for a daily usage, can easily reproduce 480p videos, the camera is very descent on day but on night it is...... bad. The battery is enough to last 1 day without using it every hour, i would recommend this for a person that was a low budget phone to make calls and watch their mails and messages, it is also good for some light gaming.

  • I bought huawei Y330 phone 5 numbers from "Jarir Bookstores" Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. I bought this phone for gifting my brothers and sisters in India. All the phones are working excellently. I bought 16GB memory card for all phones. They're using since 10 months. No one complained about the phone still. And my brothers they ordered still 3 more. There is no heating problems. No hanging problem. Battery is very good. When ever you buy a electronic products, buy only in Brand shops. Compare to local shop, brand shops prices are little bit higher. But you will get quality product

  • I have had this phone for 5 months now and its an amazaing performer for it's price! battery lasts 3:30 hours at full bright and full use, meaning that it lasts all the day if you dont use it consecuently. Why do i know this? because i ran a 480p video and phone did turned off at 3:39 hours.

  • I downloaded googleplay application ' Big keyboard' a 123 keyboard. This is fine on my Samsung galaxy, but on the Ascend it shows in appts as installed, bv shows up nowhere on the appt screen or in settings, -laungage keyboard. A long press on input does no good either. Can anyone help please.

  • This phone is not a good phone in everything, it's slow and freezes up, battery drain quick and there is no proximity sensor. This is a garbage phone not advising any one to buy dis crap

  • Only few months back got this phone. But suddenly the touch screen stopped working. Can anyone give any suggestions as mobile shops do not have any spare parts.

  • Problem with the touch screen and the sim card socket. What should be done.

  • It's a good phone but it lacks the flash & a front camera.

  • OK phone. But After a few months Apps won't load .... Can't even reload App I just uninstalled ... G+ store says insufficient memory, but there's heaps. So be VERY CHOOSY about the apps you install. Consider eBook and video editing on another device. Right now I'm stuck with the default file explorer which hsc NO MULTIPLE SELECT. Never uninstall any App ... It doesn't free up the memory.

  • dont miss this phone, is very cheap and very good, never stuck screen, never lag, play almost all programs and games, and very good camera (but just for day) the bad is that does not have flash and screen cant turn of when u are talking, and u can push some comand with your ear

  • The phone is generally good. Its user friendly and the specs are adequate to a good extent

  • Got the y300 it constantly telling me apps aren't respondin such as Facebook, contacts,maps. Absolutely rubish. Soon to be history! not be getting another Huawei phone!

  • I've had this phone for a month and nobody has rang me on it, tonight I got my partner to ring me from his phone, it rang but I could not answer it. I did search through and found it was screen locked, I took this off but by this time my partner had stomped off to bed in a temper with me for not knowing how to answer it. HELP!!!!

  • Haven't been happy since getting it on contract a year ago. Today a safe mode notice came on screen, and have been ever since to get settings back without success, certainly wouldn't recommend a Huawei to anyone! Can't get the apps namely facebook and Twitter 70percent of the time, waste of money paying for a contract, on a 2 year contract, if I have to use this for another year it will end up in the bin

  • I synched the phone with my I30 and got my wife to phone me from our home phone. It worked 1st time without a hitch great!

  • Another satisfied customer who didnt do his home work before purchasing,!

  • Cool phone for it's price, I like it, Im a budget smartphone user so it's fine for me, too bad the camera doesn't have flash, but oh well, the phone have what I need, so Im satisfied with it. I recommend it to all budget users out there.

  • Learn to spell!

  • thnat's a lot

  • Can't believe how good this phone is for the price, no probs playing apps, feels good in the hand, delighted.

  • nice cheap phone.. feature 7 design 6 performance 8 running many apps on background while playing game and still no lag.best 512 ram huawei's phone..

  • When will they give the y330 upgrade

  • it is good phone comfortable but some software not take eg whatsapp continue for latest also if u have solution for whatsapp send it

  • It's not a bad phone for the price you pay. Just that sometimes the RAM memory is not enough, but it works well, and yes people, this phone does run the whatsapp

  • I think that it is a perfectly good phone, it might not be the top end smartphones but is a beginers/basic smartphone that is good to start of with if you want to go with a smartphone.

  • if the phone is too sensitive and tourch scroll very fast then it is a gud phone I think the company must give it like 1GB RAM yeah I like it very much

  • Dont by it. It have some basic stupid things.. -Touch sc. is toooo sensitive,scrool too fast,react on everything -Display is always on(no proximity sensor) during the call y can touch with finger or face -When the call is finish y must press the power button to unlock the screen first and then to press END CALL. Otherwise the call is still going unless otherside before y press END.(THIS angry me most)Must check carefully to be sure that the call is off. -Plastic case is not antistatic,the dust is stick on it -On daylight is hard to see,there is reflex from glass -On internet cant zoom the picture with 2 finger,there is +,- touch (with picture taken with camera is ok,zoom works with 2 fingers) -No flash light -Sound speaker not good and loud enought(when listen music or play video) -Three touch button under displey dont light (in dark cant see where to touch) +Battery life is good (4 days regular use without games,internet) +Wi-fi is ok,very fast +Camera not bad I get this phone free but if y pay for it THRUST me - Dont by it (becouse of this basic everyday use operations).Give a little more money to get som. better...(with prox.sensor,flash l. front cam...)And HOME button.(use iphone 3gs before this..now is hard always to look and found that small power b.) Thats for now after a few days of use,hope will be usefull for someone...

  • This phone is really good. Five star. All my friends have I phones and Samsung's, but I think this phone is just as good ( if not better ) I've only had it for 3 months and is already the best phone I have owned. Very easy to use and is quick. It takes good photos and is a VERY cheap price on contract!! GET THIS PHONE!!

  • I've had this phone for nearly 6 months now, and it still feels and looks like new. I've dropped it a few times as well, and still it is running awesome! Only correction i have to make is, this phone does not have a Proximity sensor as stated in the Specs.

  • haha, y330 is a good phone

  • When are we getting updates for the y330

  • No flash = Dark and Poor Pictures/Videos

  • Please chang your data sim to sim 01 location.

  • Which of these Huawei Phones takes nice pics as well as I want to buy me one asap

  • phone is aids

  • Hi Thank you for good information about this phone l want to aske you if we can change the internet seting from 2G to 3G coze the net is very slowly and I cant make downlod for any application please can you tel me

  • No compass

  • Amazing mobile phone. -I bought one from Vodafone Egypt for 600 L.E about 85$ -The one which I own has 2 SIM cards slots one of them is mini and the other one is regular size. -The camera is not that bad what do expect from camera without flash, but if there is good lighting taken shoots are nice. -Very fast Internet if you have good Internet connection. -Touch is very smooth. -very good performance it never lags, no delays. -battery is good but not the best it stands for a day with regular use. -it has no compass. -if you are using Arabic you have to download Arabic keyboard (I suggest SwiftKey) -GPS is very powerful it doesn't take time to warm up, GPS signal is available once you turned it on, really amazing GPS. -Very practical phone comparing to its price. If you have any questions about this phone doesn't hesitate to contact me.

  • It doesn't have flash mode in its camera operation. Poor pictures!

  • Been thinking about getting the ascend y330 and my mind is now made up, my 2nd blackberry this year alone just went quiet-microphone- and am not fixing it tired of the constant "sim card rejected" from blackberry as well. thanks for all the reviews my mind is made up! Huawei throw a party am on board.

  • Does this phone has a compass?

  • Love this phone! For the price it's truly amazing n don't regret purchasing it! The camera's okey during the day in good lighting...not in low light though. The voice recorder is also not top notch but it's a necessary sacrifice for its other goodies. I especially love the many games I get to play on it!

  • The telco that sold me mine cant locate an operating manual....how can you steer the cursur when making up a text....horrible thing... what does one do to enable Wi-Fi without a manual its very difficult to work it all out...not user friendly...

  • why cant I use this phone properly? every time I touch a symbol the phone talks to me and I cant swipe either! can I turn it of this and the double tap realy annoying help~!!!!!

  • Rooting if its not a high-end smartphone,you're just spoiling your smartphone people!

  • HSPDA is 21mbps?? Sweet if only the snapper was 5megapixels

  • Y330-U01 does not have proximity sensor :-( You have to turn on screen manually with power button if you want to disconnect call.

  • yeah it those take whatsApp BBM facebook and more things

  • is are good phone better dan the blackberry 9700 and the 9650 the only thing that the y330 do not have flash thats all but other w is better trust me

  • Is dis phone good bcoz I mite get it today and does it use WhatsApp

  • the phone is awesome,easy to use.. but in music ,there is no such thing as sound equalizer... and they have to do a bit about battery life span... otherwise it's all good and cheap. is antivirus necessary for this android?

  • 3-4 hours is the approximate time of Huawei Y330-UO1 for it to be fully charged.

  • This device represents excellent value for money in the Android ecosystem like the Nokia Lumia does in the Windows Phone ecosystem. Offering a respectable display and GPS and WiFi at this price point is commendable.

  • The y330 ascend is very cheap if this phone was to come to life it would be a Jamaican little but tallawah this phone runs the most powerful games making them seems lightweight graphics doesn't glitch plus huawei has brought a consumer friendly feel to this phone smooth and easy to use processors speed is so a amazing I don't need WiFi data super fast a lot of mbps 5 stars for this phone this phone can put huawei into the upper echelleon of smart phones makers and move some pretenders down the list huawei are now thee contenders on the android market.

  • How many hour to full charging this phone?

  • Mine lasts a week, turn stuff off you do not need, eg gps, wifi, apps running in background etc

  • Its a little annoying with the amount of information at our fingertips that some people don't do a little homework and find out about what they are buying before they biy it.....then come on these forums moaning and grumbling their hard earned cash has got them a bag of crap. Huawei makes cheap phones and floods the market, so if you ain't sure then why buy it? OK, I'm lucky to have a Y300 and a Y330 and they are built better and much tougher than a Samsung or a Motorola, I'm happy with what I've got, its a pity some of you didn't think to look up about a y330 before buying it. To those saying I can't save an app to SD or I can't send a video, have you ever heard of an amazing invention called google search?

  • In settings go to application-managage application. Choosing each apo, select move to SD, some apps will not move to SD card

  • Goto gallery where the video is saved. Top left of screen there are three dots. Press them. It will say share via...... Then choose where you want to send then. Its not rocket science.......

  • There is no difference. The ascend y330 and the y330 are in fact the same phone, some people just can't be bothered the put ascend into the title!

  • Bag o shite

  • Very disappointed with battery life - runs down quickly even when not used. Previous Huawei phone battery used to last a lot longer - therefore more reliable if needed in emergency.

  • Slide the lock icon towards the green phone

  • this phones are so good but the something wich is so deligate to remove is the menu app of tigo pesa with its icon..help plzz

  • Why would any large company purchase these in bulk, the thing is a pain for customers why ? Telus why ?

  • Nope - put it in a drawer, it's all alone in there.. perhaps it's rebooting ? again and again..or the screen will drop out or it will go to recents..it just has to do something

  • how do i get whats up on huawei ascend y330

  • How can I save app on my memory card. I realy wantto now

  • You slide the lock to the green, not the other way

  • how do I send a video from this phone? have tried everything, thanks

  • what is diferent bitween huawei ascend y330 and huawei y330?

  • No front camera!

  • Can't answer mine either. Appears to be faulty ans will have to return/replace. Cannot slide the green phone icon to answer. Maybe a lemon.

  • This phone has 4GB of storage. It can easily be updated. The amount of memory (RAM) does not affect updates.

  • I have this phone. It updated to the latest google apps withoput a problem. Any phone with 512MB of RAM can run the latest version of Android.

  • goto www.modaco.com and goto the Y300 section you need root and custom recovery. all instructions there.

  • In my view the 512mb of internal RAM is not enough and for this reason alone you should look for a different phone. With every app possible moved to the micro sd card, I still have insufficient memory available to update the installed google apps - these are virtually the only things left in internal RAM besides Huawei software

  • How do I install Slimkat on the Y300?

  • This phone is okay. i already have an ascend y300 running kitkat 4.4.2 {Slimkat custom rom} ok, the camera on the y330 is nowhere near as good as the y300. Its a 3mp with no flash, no autofocus, no front camera. no wifi hotspot strangly. as im using my y330 as a work/second phone im not too interested in outright speed or power. it does what i want fast and with no lag, its way faster than my Y300 due to the Y330 having a better processor. this phone comes with android 4.2.2, not 4.3 as stated> another thing to consider, if any of you are wanting to buy the y330 to mod/develop/put custom roms on or remove the awful huawei stock rom, dont bother. the Y330 can be rooted but because the Y330 has a mediatek processor, there is no custom roms/recovery availible as of 06/10/2014. PEOPLE HAVE TRIED FLASHING CUSTOM ROMS AND RECOVERY FOR A Y300 THINKING IT WILL WORK ON A Y330 AND IT DOESNT. ALL YOU WILL ACHIEVE IS TO TURN YOUR NICE SHINY Y330 INTO A WORTHLESS PAPERWEIGHT. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!

  • is this phone compatible with the game clash of clans

  • A week old with the phone but when I receive a call I cant get what the caller is saying but whe I call we communicate well and understant each other, what could be the problem otherwize the phone and its features are cool.

  • probably really good as a burner phone, but i have not had it a day, and already find it annoying. The makers have hidden in the depths of the system preferences/'phone manager' a function that allows them control over private details and functions. the phone also comes with 60-70% of it's memory already taken up with pre-logged applications. Not the best I have bought, but for the price it is adequate. advice: buyer beware!! research is a good thing to do! don't always listen to the shop assistant (as i did...) otherwise, probably a good phone. :) Oh and answering calls.... don't bother!!!

  • I cannot find encryption under security settings. Does this mean that this smartphone is incapable of encrypting the phone memory and SD card? If so, is there a way to encrypt both? Please help... 💡

  • I recently wrote (as anonymous) asking whether this phone really has proximity sensor as listed in the tech specs. I installed an application that required the sensor and the response I got is that no Proximity sensor was found in my hardware. My question is that does whoever lists the tech specs on gsm arena confirm that the specs are as listed or this is left for the website users to find out. I have always tru

  • somebody tell me how to reply a call on huawei y330 by pressing the on/off switch ??

  • Root any android phone, use Vroot. I have used vrootover 10 devices, very effective.

  • to root use kingo root it's free

  • Best phone ever(Keep in mind price point, just 80$) Battery backup improve day by day. Every thing you put into it play/handle very well. Why some people comments against it? Im using it for last 15 days.

  • You can root the phone with help of code for Huawei and install Firmware from Cyanogen .. Only problem is 512 mb ram is not sufficient for some apps. Rest is fine. I have used y300 for 1 yr

  • Is this phone good? I'm planing to buy it. Is camera good and what about battery? Thank you, i need quick answer!

  • the worst android I've ever used. Has too many bugs with no update to them. You are not able to send SMS to any Google contacts that have any format rather than pure numbers (even white spaces). You need to type the dest number each time you want to send a message or reply. Only fix is to go to your google contacs and save the number without (666) - 5444 - 5444. Dual core is not. The applications that comes by default uses almost the half of the 4GB internals. Google maps on this phone has a "feature" that if you shake it, it will ask you for comments on the app... come on, my car is moving... and shaking!! I'll try to root it and remove everything. Expecting to improve it.

  • How do you save an image from a received multi media files onto the phones sd card o internal memory?

  • how can you play the clash of clans?when i tried to download it appears that it is not compatible??

  • I am playing clash of the clans on my Huawei with no problems

  • Best low budget smartphone all time. software resembles huawei p7, p6, g6, honor 3c, except it has jb 4.2.2. bettery life normal, not great nor weak. Better than sony xperia m, samsung s duos 2 except screen quality, and camera,its normal but not worst. no back speaker only front speaker for call and media stuff. Running all games fluently bcoz it has mali 400 gpu. antutu score 10650, quadrant score 3650. back camera is better than huawei y511, much better. I like emotion ui 2, what a policy by huawei to keep same ui both in above 400$ p7 and 80$ y330, Amazing.

  • It's a very good mobile with wise function as a smart phone with affordable price . The only thing Am still struggling to do is some attachment in my email can't be open . It says try to find an application in playstore . Can anyone help advice me of an appropriate application i can download ?

  • This is a really great phone! you can play and do multitasking with no problem maybe the battery life is not the best but the good performance solves it, I really recommend it! go try it...

  • I own this phone and I tried to make a video call,unfortunaly my friend was offline so I can't say for sure but the call started succesffuly and my rear camera opened without any lags so I would say it works.

  • But it's strange I already have ascend y320 with the same spesification and it's works for Clash of clans Can found in playstore for this game It's so strange,-_-

  • This phone have some sligthly issues but trust me that u cant buy better low budget phone.for 99 eur u get good picture quality and amazing performance,web browsing,texting,interface using goes without any,but any bug.Ifu are interested in games,this phone will support every android game u want(maybe ther is some unsuported but i've download a lot of big and good graphic quality games and the all work perfect,although there might be few fps drops).I bought this phone just few days after its realised in europe and my immpresions are awesome.

  • can I skype with rear camera? pls reply. I want to buy this phone. Thanks to all.

  • If you can't find clash of clans this means the game is simply not supported with your phone.

  • Ascend Y330 Superb mobile...

  • i buy this phones thats very good phone best droid systum and other .

  • This happens to be my first Android, and I am loving it. Camera is crappy without proper lighting, to be honest, and no Proximity sensor. Aside from that, the phone is the BOSS!!! Temple run and Subway surfer are my main stay. Even with all the gaming and videos i watch, i still can go through an entire day on a single charge. Thought Android was a Battery Hog, with this phone it's a performer.
