Conclusion
| Overall | + | - | |
| With the Highway Pure 4G, Wiko has created a solid device, which offers stunning design at a reasonable price point. Thanks to the efficient ROM and the Qualcomm quad core SoC this smartphone is quite and the low price of EUR 299, CHF 319.- respectively, makes it very attractive. Apart from that there are only minor flaws. For example the sound quality of the integrated media speaker could be improved and the aliasing effect in videos should be dealt with. The Mediatek SoC performs well and in combination with the 2000 mAh battery it'll stay away from power plugs for long enough. |

| The Highway Pure 4G is an astonishingly good looking phone. There are rounded corners and Gorilla Glass on the front as well as on the backside of the device. In combination with the very high build quality the Highway Pure 4G feels great. Apart from that there is a 4.8 inch display with 720 x 1280 pixel resolution. This is a clear indicator, that the vendor had to make a compromise towards the excellent design. |

| Performance / Battery | + | - | |
| Inside the Highway Pure 4G we find a Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 quad-core SoC with Adreno 306 GPU. We tested the performance of this device with the basic settings and results are pretty good. Only the graphics perfomance is a little low. During the tests, we haven't detected any overheating/throttling issues. The 2000mAh battery in the Highway Pure 4G is not removable and in our opinion battery life is good. If only the device would support fast charging. |

| Display / Camera | + | - | |
| The Wiko Highway Pure 4G is equipped with a 4.8-inch HDready AMOLED display, which provides life-like colors while both contrast and brightness are really good. Also the black-level is good. Pictures taken with the 8 megapixel rear camera could be better and the same goes for the videos. The audio captured while shooting a video is good. | - Life-like colors - Sharp images | - Image and video quality could be improved | |
| Recommendation / Price | + | - | |
| The Wiko Highway Pure 4G is a good device, with exceptionally good looking design. Since the smartphone features a very competitive price there are trade-offs, which need to be made regarding the display and the camera. Overall you get a great, recommendable bundle. | - Pricing | ||
