We take Huawei s budget baby, the Honor Holly for a test drive
Nov 15 2014 By Ketaki BhojnagarwalaThe Honor Holly has a lot going for it. It offers a roomy display with HD resolution, reliable performance, generous storage and most of all, the magic price tag of Rs 6,999. But, it has some stiff competition to deal with. The Moto E (review) remains a strong contender, and while it may fall short in a spec comparison, it offers the advantages of a stock user interface, better build and longer battery life.

Read Full ReviewHello everyone, nI'm sharing my review about this product that hopefully help you making quick decision to purchase Huawei Holly. nAbout Qualityn-> I feel this cellphone is delicate, thin and light weight with glossy white back cover and decent bright color display. nAbout Software:n-> Thank god, this cellphone does not have extra pre-installed apps except Flipkart app. (because app consume ram space and that really low down cellphone performance and may create heat-up issue. nAbout Hardware:n-> Decent hardware and very fast responding touch and motherboard. True, its lower performance compare with MI 2 with same price but No heat-up issue compare with MI2. nCons:n-> Menu display button at bottom does not light up. It means, in dark place or use at night will create problem as you cannot see menu button at bottom. n-> Take too long to charge cellphone. It took around 2 hours to complete charge at 100%. n-> Camera is not really good in quality but option of "Face beauty mode" at bottom middle will surly help to make selfy look better ;) nWHAT MUST TO DO AFTER PURCHASE THIS CELLPHONE? n-> Go to Settings > Apps > AllnNow open pre-installed app and click on disable and proceed with uninstall process. nExample:nI do not need Google + or Hangout. So, follow instructions above and disable it. nWhy disable?n-> It will free your Ram space and your RAM will more focus on your active apps not on unless apps :) nInstall 3 apps for sure and make sure you get without ads :) n1) Fast Charger Pro (need to find no ads app on Google)n-> You know :) it help to charge my cellphone faster atleast 20 to 25% faster. n2) Zeam Launcher 3.1.10 (free no ads) Just google it and you will get it.n-> Just 300 KB application and after load it will be hardly 700KB means less RAM consume and no heat-up. Other Launchers and even default launcher is more then 2MB and took space upto 10MB or more and more RAM consume. n3) DU Battery Booster Pron-> To maintain your batter back for long last and it actually work but it's on option for you :) nWhy I provide or share such information?n-> To help you guys by sharing my knowledge to have non heat-up cool product. nMy cellphone screenshots:n-> Battery is 100% on continue enable WiFin-> Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/tlTTrro.png n-> 1% battery low down after 1 hour and 20 minutes. nFront look of my cellphone using Zeam Launchern-> Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/L3jSRWJ.png nnIf you want performance cellphone for Hard Gaming, choose MI 2 (35% better performance and better camera), if you want decent phone, Go for Holly :)nnIMPORTANT NOTE:n-> Any Phone That Heat-Up will damage your phone PCB (motherboard) & damage radiation protection hardware that ultimately affect you.n-> Make sure your cellphone won't heat-up and delete app that heat-up your phone or check with expert.nnAbout Holly, it hardly heat-up a little near back cam and that's very okay :) nnDo click on Like button, if you found this information helpful to you. :)
