Huawei Ascend P2 is coming to the UK, the Chinese company has announced. The super-thin smartphone, which was unveiled during this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, is both fancy and powerful.
Specs wise, it comes with a 4.7-inch 720p HD screen, 1.5GHz quad-core processor, 13-megapixel camera on the back, front-facing camera, as well as “standard for Android” sensors and connectivity options. Plus, let’s not forget what Huawei says is large (and we would say decent) 2420mAh battery, which is itself augmented by Huawei’s own power-saving technologies like Quick Power Control (QPC) and Automated Discontinuous Reception (ADRX), which reduce power consumption and charging time and combine to give power efficiencies of up to 30%. Kinda bold statement and we’ll rather have to try it out ourselves before believing into this.
Anyway, the Ascend P2 will be available from UK retailers on various network operators in black and white in June. Details of availability and pricing will be announced shortly, and in the meantime you are free to check our hands-on time with Huawei’s smartphone…
