Huawei has launched its latest range of smart phones and tablets today including its flagship Ascend P7 smart phone. As seen from some online retailers, the Huawei Ascend P7 is priced at RM1,499 while its compact MediaPad X1 tablet is priced at RM1,399 for the 4G LTE version. Apart from these 2, they have also announced an 8″ multimedia tablet, a mid-spec smart phone and a hybrid sports wearable device.
Read on for the 5 new products launched by Huawei Malaysia today.
The Ascend P7 which was announced last month is the thinnest 4G LTE smart phone at just 6.5mm thick. It replaces its previous super slim Ascend P6 smart phone with a bigger screen and uprated internals. The display is now a bigger 5-incher which does Full HD 1920×1080 resolution and inside it runs on their own HiSilicon Kirin 910T Quad-Core 1.8GHz processor with 2GB of RAM. For storage, it gets 16GB on-board which is expandable with microSD and keeping the lights on is a decent 2,500mAh battery which can be prolonged with its Ultra Power Saving Mode.
Build quality is something Huawei wanted to show off this time around. Apart from using metallic frame, the back of the Ascend P7 comes with 7 layers of micro-patterns for a more premium feel in the hands. The 3rd generation Gorilla Glass not only protects the front as Huawei has applied it for the back glass as well. Photography is an area which the Ascend P7 plans to stand out with a 13MP BSI main camera that snaps in 1.2 seconds while over at the front, it boasts a large 8MP camera which comes with the world’s first panorama Selfie mode.
During the launch event, Huawei has mentioned that it will be available on contract through Celcom and U Mobile. It is available in Black and White colours with other options to come in later.
