I'm a Consumer Cellular user, and this phone worked perfectly for me. I didn't bother to request a different sim card. Just took the one out of my current phone and put it in this one. Bam,.. I was off and calling. It was a truly seamless transition.
The phone was great. I'm not a techie who must have the latest, so this phone brought everything I need to the table. Until the screen died.
5 months i purchased it, this phone has died. Started with the screen going black, and having to turn off and then turn on again the phone. This happened more and more often until one day, the screen just wouldn't light back up. The phone is on, but the screen is dead.
Got rid of the phone since I could find no place to get it fixed. Bought a Sony, from Sony, so if there are any warrenty questions, I know where to get it fixed. If your Huawie works, hurrah for you,.. but if it dies, you're screwed.

While I am an Amazon junkie, I got this phone through my carrier. There are actually four or five U8800 models. Presumably, this is the U8800-51. There is little difference in Android phones. They are all the same Chinese schlock. A couple of things you should know:
There are phones being sold with four different versions of Android; <2.2, 2.2 ("Froyo"), 2.3 ("Gingerbread") and 4.0 ("Ice Cream Sandwich"). This phone runs on Froyo which will run 99% of Google apps. One downside to this phone is that it is probably cannot be upgraded to Gingerbread. For the VAST number of users that will be irrelevant.
If you want access to the Google apps market (most of which is free), browse, use email - great. This is also a good media player (audio and video). Oh and it actually makes and receives phone calls too. I am a cord cutter and this is terrific communicator. It plays very well with my bluetooth headset and has a good speaker as well. The camera is good - not great. While it is 5 megapixel, the lens is very wide angle. The digital zoom erodes picture quality. However, unlike many phone in this range it DOES have a flash.
One other thing that you should know is that Huawei (sounds like a Hawaiian disease) expects you to get technical support from your carrier. Their US tech support is awful.

I got this phone about 2 weeks ago and it has amazed me so far.
The screen at 3.8" is pretty wide. Battery life is decent and sound quality is good.
Android 2.2 Froyo works great it's up to you to pick and install the apps you want in addition to the preloaded ones.
I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that it has FM radio built in. It has been described elsewhere as not included.
The GPS works fine just make sure you get the address in before leaving the reach of
your WiFi hot spot. I have not yet seen another phone that gives you (combined) the speed (800 MHZ processor), the 5 mega
pixel camera, the 3.8" HD quality movie picture, the regular audio connector, and the overall solid build at such a competitive price.
I used the Tweaker app and I was on my service provider network in 5 seconds no customer service rep needed.
Using mobile network internet feels just like WiFi. That 4G must be for real.
Make sure you uncheck the mobile network under settings or you may quickly rake up some serious data
charges.
