Huawei G300 problems, laggy

BigDebtBoy

Just wondering if anyone has had any problems with this phone, mine has become really laggy, unable to make calls half the time when clicking on dial, unresponsive, browsers closing etc

anyway got a few apps but not loads 16gb mirco sd card has about 3gb used

Any ideas where to start or what could be the problem?

cheers

Check the running apps and the internal memory. 13Gb free on the card are irrelevant.

it says total space 2.05gb
available 1.99gb

in settings, that can't be right for a start, not sure how else to check

I've got one of these. I have all these problems. It's a rubbish phone.

The default browser is indeed rubbish. Install Opera Mini instead (the old version, not the new).

The problem seems to be not with browsing.

Installed dolphin, browsing is a bit better but its still laggy and crap throughout useage

It's not rubbish for the price. I got mine for £45 in tesco! Updated it to Ice Cream Sandwich when all the other cheap phones still had gingerbread. It was a game changer in my opinion, like the moto g is now. It doesn't compare to the Nexus 5 I have now but not everyone is able or willing to fork out £295 for a phone.

Bought one from Tesco for £30 about six months ago, load of rubbish as it's now resting in a drawer somewhere.

New g300 for £30?
HUKD have really missed this deal as even £85 went hot a couple of times.

You could always read the 70 pages here https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4165069

but maybe start with one of my latest posts #1377 on page 69

I just ordered a new and hopefully faster SD card
