More megapixels in sensor ...
The Ultym 5 being devoid of any overlay operator, there is even an almost identical system overcoat Android 4.3, Huawei's environment characterized by the absence of application menu (navigation on iOS).

The standard bed video player Xvid files in addition to the MP4 format, which was not the case on Ultym, requiring the installation of a compatible player.
... but only selfies earn it!
Only downside, the photos and videos taken with the G6 from the main sensor, the gain in quality is not really noticeable. The images are more detailed with the G6, but the unnatural colors (blue to trend, especially with artificial lighting).
As for the videos, they suffer from a serious lack of stabilization on both sides. However, photos taken with the front of the sensor G6 are much more successful than those taken with the Ultym 5. selfies lovers will appreciate.
