- IPS matrix and acceptable screen size.
The performance is quite enough for Internet surfing, low-demanding games work more or less (Real Drift runs at minimum)
Built-in safety glass
You can draw: with a pencil, marker and acrylic paints on the back cover (only the varnish lasts about a month) xD
- After 2 months, it started to reboot itself (I tried cleaning it through the BIOS, it helped for 3 days), it slowed down during operation, and as soon as it warmed up, expect surprises.
Weak software, there is no built-in mp3 player, but fortunately there is AIMP (you need to download it, and before that I was tired of looking for a good player without ads), the browser is also not ice (I still haven’t figured out how to bookmark it) and for starters there is a serious defect in the software Well, this memory does not correspond to the declared 8gb and in order to expand it to the required size you need to go to the official website, download their software update (we are not talking about the Android OS), which will ultimately allow you to use those same 8gb (in real life 5gb at the expense of android) , I don’t recommend flashing it yourself for non-experienced users, it may end up in a brick.
The coating on the back cover is extremely terrible as it gets dirty very quickly.
I almost forgot, the battery is for a day i.e. 12 hours is not enough no matter how hard you try, so you can’t do without a power bank.
I’ve been using it for almost a year, the requirements were not high when I bought it I needed the Internet, a strong screen and no brakes, 2 out of 3 points are there. Eliminate: bugs, glitches and defective software, there will be a good budget smart. In principle, I wrote everything, take it at your own peril and risk. I encountered these problems and now I have lost the desire to buy the Hightscreen brand at all, although who knows, maybe in the future they will raise the quality bar.

- 1. IPS display with good viewing angles;
2. Camera with autofocus and flash;
3. Not the deadliest battery (we've seen worse);
4. Multi-colored (there is a choice);
5. Inexpensive.
- 1. The battery is actively consumed by the screen (in standby mode or when listening to music, battery consumption is very modest);
2. The body is not very pleasant to the touch and collects dirt well;
3. The speaker quite strongly distorts the timbre of the interlocutor’s speech (but this does not deteriorate intelligibility);
4. The standard camera application takes photos that suck in terms of color reproduction (cured by installing a Snap camera).
The phone was bought for a schoolchild to be torn to pieces. I was selected according to the criteria that I listed in the “Advantages” section. The disadvantages are not particularly critical for the price, and I don’t consider the crooked layout of the internal memory as such, because This “jamb” can be easily and simply corrected on your own (find a topic on the 4pda forum about this model, there is already a ready-made file there).

- Ideal for those 40 and older. It’s easy to control, everything is very accessible and you can download 3-4 games and read books. How many times have I fallen in a year and a half and I don’t know, I’ve been in water, but it still works properly. The battery lasts for 4-5 days, provided that you play games every day without fanaticism.
- Small amount of memory

The main reason why this phone is not worth attention is that the so-called “8 GB of internal memory” is divided into 1.2 GB and 3.5 GB. Only 1.2 GB is allocated for the operating system. After turning on for the first time and connecting to the Internet, the phone requested updates to already installed programs... and without finishing the process, it issued a notification “the phone’s memory is full.”
It is not possible to install programs on 3.5 GB of free memory or a memory card.

At the beginning of autumn, Highscreen presented a couple of interesting budget smartphones. We have already tested Highscreen Easy S with bright colors, today we are focusing on Highscreen Easy F. Like its predecessor, it is available in a regular version and with the PRO prefix. We will study it using the example of the younger Highscreen Easy F, considering it as an opportunity to save as much as possible when buying a phone. This same review will be relevant in light of the approaching New Year holidays. It can be a good gift option as a first phone, in fact, as the slogan of this EASY series says.
Below is a summary table of available offers on the Russian market, compiled based on data from the Yandex.Market service.
Highscreen Easy F review
Equipment
Highscreen Easy F is supplied in a light-colored packaging made of thick cardboard with a schematic illustration of the body and data on the main characteristics.
The package includes a charger, headphones, a micro USB cable, instructions and a warranty card.
Appearance
We came to study Highscreen Easy F with a bright yellow lid. There are also variations in white, black, orange and turquoise. Depending on your choice, the color of the back cover will change.
It looks most impressive in bright colors. Compact, juicy body with rounded edges.
The thickness at the widest part is about one centimeter. It decreases from the center to the periphery. It fits easily in the hand, all elements are within easy reach.
The case is dismountable, you need to apply a little force to remove the cover. Underneath it lies a removable battery, two compartments for SIM cards of different formats, and a slot for a micro SD memory card. All connectors are separate, there is no need to select.
The front panel of Highscreen Easy F is covered with protective glass with a small protrusion around the perimeter. The frames around the screen are traditional width.
Below are three touch buttons without backlight. On top is a speaker grille and a front camera lens.
On the right is the power button and volume rocker. The buttons are pressed easily, without effort. They are fixed tightly in the case and do not rattle.
At the top end there is a micro USB connector with OTG support and a 3.5mm audio jack for headphones.
In the center of the Highscreen Easy F cover is the main camera lens and the main speaker grille. It does not overlap when placed in the palm.
The familiar manufacturer logo in landscape orientation has been retained. The assembly is excellent, all parts fit perfectly together.
Screen
A 4.5-inch IPS matrix is installed. Resolution 480x854. Individual pixels are noticeable upon close inspection. The viewing angles are wide. There are slight deviations with vertical deflection. Maximum illumination at medium level.Only manual adjustment is provided. The color balance is slightly shifted towards warm tones, MiraVision technology is supported.
Filling
It is powered by a quad-core MediaTek MT6580 processor clocked at 1.3 GHz. Mali-400MP is responsible for graphics. Highscreen Easy F has 512 MB of RAM and 4 GB of internal memory. The Easy F PRO version has twice the memory capacity. The performance level is not high, but sufficient to perform daily tasks.
Antutu
Connection
Only 3G networks are supported. There is Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, FM radio. The communication modules operate stably, no breaks were noticed. A GPS cold start takes about 40-50 seconds.Battery
A battery with a capacity of 1700 mAh is responsible for autonomous operation. You shouldn’t count on autonomy records like in the BOOST and POWER series. In a typical scenario, it lasts for the entire working day, about 3.5 hours for playing movies, about 2.5 hours for games.
Camera
The main camera resolution is 2 MP (5 MP for PRO). You shouldn't expect high detail. Here it is more suitable for video communication. To interact with the camera, a standard application from the Google package is used. Several artistic modes and manual settings are available. Front camera with a resolution of 0.3 MP.
Software
The Google Android 5.1 operating system is installed without proprietary shells and additional software. Everything is in the spirit of Google, except for the version and update speed. There are some delays when switching between applications and launching resource-intensive software.
