Huawei Activa 4G (MetroPCS) price range: $179.98 - $199.99
- Reviewed by: Jessica Dolcourt
- Reviewed on: 07/10/2012
- Released on: 06/08/2012
The good: The Huawei Activa 4G has LTE support, a decent camera with a dedicated camera shutter button, and sells for a good price for a prepaid handset.
The bad: The Activa 4G's design is bulky, and there's no Android 4.0 upgrade in sight.
The bottom line: There are plenty of trade-offs for those considering the Huawei Activa 4G, but if LTE is your priority, it'll get you there without busting the bank.

Summary: HUAWEI is the worse cell phone manufacture on the market. Within a few months of usage, all the features start becoming unusable, until the point the touch screen stop working and you cannot even unlock your phone. If you are lucky and your phone is still under warranty, your carrier may swap it for a fee but you will lose all your data, contacts, missed calls, notes, photos, audio, videos, text messages, everything!!!

Summary: Huawei's first 4G phone/device to land in the US. It has a front facing camera, but besides this, specifications are similar to the Ascend II it is replacing. It has a 5MP camera, 3.5MM Headset jack, for all of the people that like to use standard size headphones, there you are! Turn by turn GPS thru Google Maps (which does seem accurate on my phone so should be on this) and a MicroSD slot expandable up to 32GB.

Was a decent phone until it blanked out on me
by Lisae83 on November 14, 2012
Pros: Had a decent camera
Cons: Ran out of Space quickly even after I saved apps to my Micro SD card. Always said Micro SD card unexpectly unmounted. And now the phone is stuck on the white Metro pcs screen.
Summary: I am so very dissapointed.
