Huawei said the phone was designed for smartphone newcomers, with a specially designed interface called HAP 5.1. The company said using the phone would be "more intuitive".
Behind the simplified interface the phone runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread, giving it full access to the myriad of apps in the Google Play store.
