Nokia Asha 503 review


This isn’t to say those other handsets are slow, it’s just the Mate 20 Pro is a step above and should compete closely with the next-generation Snapdragon chipset we’ll likely see soon. Huawei’s phones have always impressed with strong reception for both Wi-Fi and cellular data, and that remains the case here. Phone calls sound clear, and since the phone supports dual-SIM, you can place two nano-SIMs inside. Interestingly, there’s no microSD support here. Instead, Huawei has developed a expandable storage card called Nano Memory. As the name implies, this card is the same size as a nano-SIM, and fits in the same slot.

At the time of review, I couldn’t find any nano memory cards for sale. The lack of microSD support is softened by the 128GB of internal storage, though. To offset the missing 3.5mm headphone jack Huawei includes both a dongle for connecting wired headphones along with a serviceable pair of USB-C earbuds in the box. There’s also a decent speaker setup here, with noise coming both from the notch and the bottom of the device. Huawei Mate 20 Pro – Software There’s so much to like about the Huawei Mate 20 Pro – but, sadly, the software experience still needs work. Huawei’s intrusive EMUI, which runs on Android 9 Pie, remains a strange combination of Google’s software and knock-off iOS. It ditches the app drawer for an iOS-like appearance of multiple homescreens crammed with apps, not to mention it comes with an excess of bloatware.

Everything about EMUI continues to feel a bit all over the place. The icons are blocky and ugly, notifications often miss out important information, and the Settings menu is a mess of hard-to-find options. Problems aren’t confined to the UX design, either; EMUI seems to actively limit functionality. You can’t interact with and act upon notifications on the lock-screen, and I had continual issues with Google services refusing to sync properly and reliably. Huawei has also taken two of Pie’s biggest features and tweaked them.

Digital Wellbeing is now Digital Balance, and this lets you set timers for apps, keep an eye on how much time you’re spending on your phone per day, and dim the colours at night. Navigation gestures are here, working more like iOS than Android as you’d find on a Pixel 3. I like being able to swipe from an app to go home but Huawei’s implementation of going back needs work: you need to swipe on the left side of the display, but the phone just doesn’t do a good job at recognising this gesture, an issue that gave me flashbacks to early iterations of the company’s Knuckle Mode *shudder*.
