Mobile Syrup

“The Huawei U8350 is to a smartphone the way that KFC is to chicken. It’s neither gourmet nor special, but it’s delicious for the price — or perhaps because of the price. It really only fulfils the very basic needs of someone who needs a phone that can text, tweet, email and occasionally browse.”
