| Huawei launches 6.1-inch Ascend Mate Huawei launched an absolutely massive set today during its press event: the 6.1-inch Huawei Ascend Mate. This Android 4.1 handset boasts a 720p display, an 8.1 megapixel and Huawei's own Hi-Silicon 1.5 GHz quad-core CPU but fortunately, that gigantic display (which is low temperature polysilicon) has been paired with a 4,050mAh battery -- the Galaxy Note II runs with a 3,100mAh cell -- and we're hoping this means the pocket-straining slab will go the distance in daily use. WiFi will apparently see a speed boost to 150Mbps thanks to dual WiFi receivers and in the stage demo a 1GB file took a mere 60 seconds to download. Huawei claims the Ascend Mate will see you chatting for 22 hours, surfing the Web for 14, or watching 10 hours of video. Fully 73% of that handset's face is display which features Huawei's new "Magic Touch" tech, the new moniker means you can use the phone with normal gloved hands. A few app highlights include a camera and navigation combination dubbed "Guiding Wizard," an easy way to isolate text in words for lookup called "Smart Reading" and finally "Easy Panel" for quick access to Notes, Messages and the like. The Ascend Mate ships for an unknown price to China in February 2013 and other countries -- sadly no mention which -- in March. http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/h...h-ascend-mate/ |
