2.Memory hog.
I guess we are hardly getting 340-350mb of usable ram. After 15-20 min of handling the phone [normal phone function & not a single game]the free ram gets as low as 55mb :( but never felt any lagging.
This is why I need 1 GB RAM minimum. This is the only reason I changed my mind and decided to wait for G526.

Enjoy the new discussion thread for Y300 ;)

1.Volume of Loud speaker is very low even in indoors. :( There will be problem in hearing an incoming call especially for ladies who put their phone in purses.

G300 had same problem. Visit modaco forum and go through all the G300 threads. Not advisable but anyone brave enough to root his mobile, try this: Possible solution for low volume on ringtones. accessing build.prop most likely will require rooting or if you try to change something rooting is a must.

2.Memory hog.

Android 4.1. 480X800 resolution. (my guess) a number of useless apps. And unless you multitask it won't hang. Android has smart memory management. Use FastReboot to free up ram if you ever feel the mobile has became slow.

There is an update[international site] for Huawei Y300-0100 model which retails in India but when I clicked on online update no updates were found.

can be carrier specific.

but i need a case urgently for the y300 :'(

find any Samsung mobile with dimension really close to Y300 and try that out. AFAIK, original Galaxy S got similar spec. S Duos's cover (easily available) won't fit in Y300.

i always do it that because of the frequency of flashing custom roms. try 1mobile. they are trusted site for android apps.

> Built inRam manager

awesome. This is how manufacturers should increase usability.

Allllright !
I have used Y300 for some time now and I have felt a significant amount of stutter and lag when Apex launcher or Swipe application is used..
And have also observed screen is not very responsive.. Have to swipe thrice to pull down notification bar..
Camera is good, in well lit conditions though..

Notification pull down is kind of lagging . i use next launcher and the lag has decreased .

BTW I use clean master. Will check built in ram manager

I doubt if it will come here. moreover the specs are unclear.
We surly need some updated version of G600 [with 1gb ram & cortex A9 soc or Krait ]

I also faced problem with notification bar while switching on/off W lan & data services. Sometimes registering touch is a prob. I guess they must have addressed this issue in newer update of Emotional U/I Downloads - Huawei Device Co., Ltd..

Thanks a lot :)

Rooting will void your warranty......

I guess mobile partner software from the above link will assist in updating.....

I tried but was unable to connect the phone to it. phone could be connected to Wondershare MobileGo for Android but not huawei software. You just give a try it may my WINDOZE 7 issue.

I read few blogs like this Huawei Ascend G526, Specifications And Price in India | CHATINBOOK.INFO where the estimated price is around 12K. So I hope it will be released in India too. I check Hauwei India site often for new releases. Huawei Android Smartphones in india | Best Smartphone in India | Dual Sim Smartphones : Huawei Smartphone India

I have been thru almost all links of G526. The CpU specs are unclear, they have mentioned just Dual-core 1.2 GHz but what?? Cortex A9 or Cortex A5?
Even if it comes with their Hisilicon processor expect it to be around 15k or more that too without LTE. After seeing G510's pricing @11k highly impossible for g526 to be priced at 12k.
IMO no new phone will be added to their portfolio till last Q4[november]
