Not particularly interested in mobile technology brand Highscreen hardly know, but in fact this is a Russian software development company with seven years of experience in the creation of smartphones and an interesting past. For example, the first mobile on Android, which officially came into Russia, was released just Highscreen. But enough about the past. Today in our hands Power Ice - powerful, stylish and extremely tenacious smartphone capable to charge other mobile devices.

We advance acquainted with the specifications Highscreen Power IceThat is why the first thing we naturally wanted to test the stated manufacturer killer-feature. Have you ever seen how a smartphone is charging other smartphone?

To implement this functionality in the package included Power Ice-OTG adapter, and the smartphone is equipped with non-removable lithium-polymer battery 4000 mAh. We can not say that charging occurs quickly, but it hell is going on! Fill Rate smartphone battery strips donor is comparable with a standard charging from the adapter with an output current strength of 1 A.

Own indicators of time working at Power Ice are consistent battery capacity. To defuse it for a day, it took us many hours of non-stop online video playback at maximum brightness. Such a scenario using a mobile little applicable to real life, and during standard operation - browsing, instant messengers and the like - the smartphone loses no more than 35-40% of their charge per day.

Speaking of the battery capacity, it is necessary to take into account the dimensions of the Power Ice. Still, this is not the plump shovel-PHABLET, but quite standard by today's standards a 5-inch smartphone, and quite thin. body thickness of only 8.5 millimeters, and engineers Highscreen managed to fit everything you need in them.

Filling Power Ice is not a top, but the ability to pull all of the latest applications and not too demanding games. Inside the smartphone is a 4-core MediaTek MT6735, graphics Mali T-720, 2GB of RAM and an expandable through microSD-slot store 16 GB.

Power Ice - dvuhsimochnik. Available 4G support, and taking into account the manufacturer's focus on the Russian market, to worry about the support of various LTE frequencies do not need. Among the other types of connection: Wi-Fi b / g / n, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, GLONASS.

If you remember the price of the device, then from the head does not leave a permanent waiting trick. Well what is the strongest manufacturer saved? In fact, frankly weak places in Power Ice is not present, and seemingly underestimated the individual characteristics are compensated by other technological twists. For example, the main camera with a resolution of 8 Mn. Few? Perhaps if you are going to closely engage the smartphone photography, but rather is set decent 6-lens optics with intelligent filters that result in higher-quality pictures with an unfavorable lighting.

For the front camera has no complaints at all. 5 Mn is more than enough for selfie and video calls.

The screen Power Ice is not Full HD, but IPS. When the diagonal of 5 inches and a resolution of 1280 × 720 is still close to the obtained index Retina ppi, and to consider the pixels on the screen with a standard distance from the eyes of the smartphone you are unlikely to out.

The operating system is modified almost stock Android 5.1 Lollipop.

At the conclusion of this short review I want to go back again to the body Power Ice and note the quality of materials and execution. Fortunately, gone are the days when the budget smartphone achieved using very cheap nasty plastic combined with frankly no assembly. In this case, the housing is all right.

Power Ice rear panel is made of metal, the front cover is fully closed scratch resistant glass. Most likely, it's Gorilla Glass 3. The smartphone is handy when trying to compress it is not observed squeak and play. tailored precisely button and hang out.

Not so long ago I came to Layfhakere articleIt is asserting that the modern smartphone should not cost more than 100 dollars. If we consider that the price Highscreen Power Ice only $ 19 higher than the "standard", but the device itself is at the same time has a relatively impressive features and unique function of charging other devices, it turns out quite decent smartphone without overpayment for famous brand.
