My review of the new WIKO Highway Pure 4G

For the past few weeks I have gone all high tech and have been testing the new stylish smartphone WIKO HIGHWAY PURE 4G and here is my review.
Wiko is a French smartphone brand and the Highway Pure is one of the world's thinnest smartphones ever released by Wiko. The Highway Pure is a smart phone that does not compromise on desing and you can tell right away.
It is only 5.1 mm thick and is very lightweight at only 98 g which makes it lighter that 90% of smartphones in its size range.  Another highlight are the materials used: metal and glass.

The theme of the campaign dedicated to the launch of the Highway PURE ranked as "the thinnest smartphone on the market" was "You don't like the game? Change it! "That sums up well the spirit of 'game changer' of the French company, always ready to take a challenge.









The design is incredibly sharp and elegant, exactly what a fashionsta needs ! Its slimness is undeniable and it guarantees easy handling as well. The Pure's designers  included beveled edges which makes for better grip.
The buttons have been nicely integrated into both sides of the phone and the jack and micro-USB connectors are next to each other on the underside.


The back is covered in glass and the metal rim is narrower than the width of the handset, which reinforces the feeling of slimness.
The finished product looks spectacular by the way.











The phone runs on the Android operating system, which is currently the most popular platform on the market. Internet is run by Chrome that offers good navigation and has no real problems or jamming.
The quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor is generally fast and you won’t notice any lags during your navigation while easily switching from one app to the next.
Also interesting is the presence of 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory that unfortnately is not expandable and this is perhaps the only real drawback of the phone.
The Highway Pure 4G has a 8 megapixel primary camera, which will produce high quality photos and can capture 1080p high definition video which is second only to 4K in terms of recording quality. Its 5 megapixel front camera makes it a good selfie phone.
With its 4.8-inch screen, the Highway Pure is quite good for watching media content on. The panel's good contrast ratio makes it nice to use for videos. 
Being extremely slim Wiko’s battery life was a pleasant surprise ! 10 hours of fun and the full battery recharge is pretty quick (1 hour 35 minutes).
Regarding the phone functions the WIKO Hiighway Pure picks up the network well and provides a good standard of voice call.






Conclusion:

If you are looking for a stylish, sleek and ultra-slim smartphone with a good battery life the WIKO Highway Pure is the right choice for you!
A product that works well, does not show any real problems or uncertainties, with an excellent assembly and pleasant materials.
Rarely I have seen in so little space such a great mix of technology, style and elegance.
