Huawei could add a waffle-maker to its Ascend P2, and I doubt even that would be enough to pull people over to its side of the phone stores. Unlike the Ascend D2 unveiled at CES, there’s no 3,000mAh battery lurking here (you’ll have to “make do” with a 2420 one), but there’s a CAT 4LTE chipset, meaning 4G speeds can reach 150Mbps (the iPhone 5 and S3 LTE only have CAT 3, FYI).
Unfortunately those at MWC weren’t able to properly test the 4G speeds at the show, as, err, only 3G speeds were available, but according to our brothers at TechRadar, this phone won’t compete with the likes of the flagship handsets offered by other companies, but if anyone was eyeing up more budget handsets, this could be a nice alternative — once the £345 cost comes down a bit, anyway.
What else do you need to know? There’s a 1.5GHz quad-core processor and 1GB of RAM squeezed into the 8.4mm shell, with the 4.7-inch 1280 x 720 / 315ppi (sigh, it’s no 468ppi) display coated with Gorilla Glass 2. On the rear, the camera is 13MP, and the forward-facing one is 1.3MP. Jelly Bean, in case that was your next question.

315ppi is sigh? MOAR PPIs!!
I was recalling the HTC One’s 468, from last week. Sigh. So beeyootiful.
If they add a waffle-maker they can have my money.
She knows not the power of the waffle-maker! I have it from very reputable sources that they were going to release the waffle-maker model, but could not agree the royalty fees with Apple.
I heard Apples waffle maker failed because it always looked like someone had taken a bite out of the waffle already..
Man I really want to have some waffles.. like right now!
Fun fact: Huawei is now the third largest smartphone producer, ahead of BlackBerry and Nokia.
Whether they’re actually selling what they make is another question…
And, if they’re all badged with the Huawei brand…
I’ve had a hands on with some of their mid range Android handsets here in the UK and they are very well made and good value for money. If their name was easier to pronounce, they would probably do even better. People cannot spell or pronounce Huawei (I had to look it up to type that!), then promotion and recommendation over social media etc will be too difficult. That is why LG changed from Lucky Goldstar. Yes, the name is easy to say and spell, but a bit tacky. Branding is everything really, as our favourite fruit company has proven, and Samsung have with the Galaxy devices. I even had to practice typing Xperia nor Experia in relation to the Sony gear. Huawei could change to HUWI. Who we? We good!
My company is probably one of the greatest clients for Huawei routers in UK, and still everyone pronounces it differently. I think the most popular version rhymes with “Who Are We”
Wonder about the battery size, as per price no where near Nexus 4 but when it nose dives, it might, just might be popular in the third world countries.
