Huawei's latest U.S. device is the Prism, an entry-level Android smartphone for T-Mobile. The Prism may lack pizzazz, but it makes up for it with strong core feature performance.

The Huawei Prism for T-Mobile is an entry-level smartphone. Its unassuming hardware and ho-hum design still manage to include enough, however, to satisfy smartphone shoppers seeking simple over spectacular.

I am glad that it is not me who is reviewing a low end phone........

because my reviews would always say that the phone is trash...lol...I guess I am spoiled...I only like high end phones, dual/quad core processors, nice displays, etc..I would have a hard time saying anything good about a low end phone like this.

So Eric is a better man than me, being able to be objective and say something good about a phone with the specs of the Huawei Prism 🙂
