Vice President Yu Chengdong Of Huawei has confirmed
that the company has plans to launch a smartphone that will compete directly
against the Galaxy Note II. This handset is expected to be called the Huawei
Ascend Mate and the highlighted feature will be its massive 6.1-inch Full HD
1080p display, a report by BGR states.
As
per the report, the Huawei executive claimed that the upcoming handset will be
more powerful than the Galaxy Note II as it will feature a cooler design,
slimmer bezel, better grip, a more stunning display and will also have a longer
battery life. Chengdong went on to further state that those interested in
buying a larger-sized smartphone should wait for the offering from Huawei as it
is supposedly better and also less expensive.
The
upcoming model from Huawei
As
of now, details have been scarce regarding this upcoming model from Huawei and
the only specifications that are available are the rumours mentioning that it
will come equipped with a 6.1-inch Full HD 1080p display, an in-house 1.8GHz
quad-core processor and will feature 2GB of RAM.
From
the looks of it, handsets are appearing to get a lot bigger and the line
between smaller 7-inch tablets and large smartphones are getting increasingly
slim.
This
is not the first large handset from Huawei. In October, Huawei announced the
Ascend D2 a quad-core handset with a large 5-inch display. The handset competes
with the likes of Samsung Galaxy Note, Note II and the LG Optimus Vu, which are
all currently available in the market.
The
Huawei Ascend D2 features a 5-inch display with an HD resolution, and a 1.5GHz
quad-core processor. The Huawei Ascend sports a 13MP rear camera while the
1.3MP camera found in the front can be used for video calling. The handset
features a 3,000mAh battery that should keep the handset charged for a
significant amount of time. It is loaded with Android v4.1 Jelly Bean.
In
late November, this handset made an appearance on the GLBenchmark and through
this benchmarking tool we saw that the handset runs on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean
out of the box. Through the System tab on the benchmark we saw that the handset
will feature a 1.5GHz quad-core processor and a 5-inch screen with a resolution
1800 x1080 with navigation buttons. The actual resolution of the device is 1920
x 1080 pixels.As of now, there is no certainty of what processor will be used
on this device but based on the fact that Huawei have used the K3V chip on the
Ascend D Quad, it is likely they will use something similar on this high end
handset. The GLBenchmark also reveals that the GPU is manufactured by Hisilicon
Technologies.
As
of now, there is no word on the global availability of this handset but it is
expected to be launched in China
in early 2013.
As
far as the announcement of the Huawei Mate is concerned, rumours suggest that
it should be at the Consumer Electronics Show 2013 in early 2013.
