Back in March, we heard about an upcoming Huawei flagship that – if the rumors were true – would take the top spot as the world's thinnest smartphone. We had heard similar rumors earlier in the year which ended up missing the mark, so we didn't give it an overabundance of attention. Since then, more evidence has arrived showing-off a 6.2-millimeter thick handset going by model P6-U06. Today, a number of renders of handset have finally arrived, revealed as the Huawei Ascend P6. As you can see above, that is one seriously thin smartphone. Additional renders of the P6 let us that the ...

Last month, we heard some rumors about a pretty compelling Android from Huawei, featuring a 4.9-inch 1080p display and measuring just 6.3 millimeters thick. We didn't have a name at the time, but were told that Huawei might be ready to announce the phone as soon as this month. Well, that still hasn't happened yet, but now some new rumors have us wondering if there could be a lot more to that phone's story. Supposedly, Huawei is working on a stylish aluminum unibody phone, in the spirit of the HTC One. This handset would reportedly be called the EDGE, and it's notable for having all of its ...

Mobile World Congress 2013 was, as promised, a boatload of fun and a bucket of hot tech-geek action. While we didn't see everything we wanted to, we were treated to an avalanche of smartphones and tablets running everything from Android to Windows Phone to Sailfish to FirefoxOS. We got a gander at some really impressive form factors too, at sizes ranging from the conventional to the fantastic. If you were off the internet for the duration of last week, or if you simply couldn't deal with the cavalcade of content gushing forth from the tech-news spigot, that's okay. We understand. And we've ...

We think it's pretty fair to say that MWC 2013 was one part IFA and one part CES: a few stark disappointments peppered among some really amazing stuff. We've seen technology this week ranging from the incredible to the absurd - from the third iteration of ASUS's wild Padfone concept to the improbable debut of a Kyocera Echo lookalike. The big guys have come out to play, too, but they're a little shy this time around: neither Samsung's Galaxy Note 8.0 nor Nokia's midrange Lumias blew the roof off the joint. Even a few has-beens came out to confuse us with their wares, some of which will be ...

The Huawei Ascend P2 may be the company's hot smartphone for today, but don't forget about the Ascend D2, the 1080p Android we heard announced back at the CES. While we got to go hands-on with the handset at the time, we weren't able to really show you just what the phone's thirteen-megapixel camera was really capable of. Well, now that we're in Barcelona for the Mobile World Congress, we once again croseed paths with the D2, and this time we had the opportunity to put the phone's camera through its paces. We didn't fiddle with any settings here: these were taken in full-auto mode, though ...

After showing off the Ascend D2 and Ascend Mate at CES, Huawei have brought a new phone to this year’s Mobile World Congress: the Huawei Ascend P2. The phone packs a 1.5GHz quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, 13-megapixel camera at the back with a single-megapixel front-facing webcam. It runs Android 4.1.2 with Huawei’s own Emotion UI on top of it -- version 1.6 -- and, as far as build quality is concerned, we were surprised by the low weight and good feel in the hand. While talking about that, the phone is 8.6mm thin. The screen is 4.7 inches large in diagonal ...

Huawei's been teasing the launch of a super-thin Android for the MWC this year, measuring-in thinner than 6.45 millimeters. Chances are, this model will be the Ascend P2, following-up on the Ascend P1 and P1S, themselves very thin models to begin with. We got to look at a supposed render of the P2 late last month, and now, with just a few weeks to go until MWC 2013, some hands-on pics of what's reportedly the P2 have arrived, along with some additional specs and an idea of what the phone might cost. Rather than the 4.5-inch 1080p display we heard about before (which would make it the ...

Huawei's MWC event is scheduled for a month from today, on February 24. Just like the company's CES offerings, we're expecting a mix of Windows Phone and Android devices, and on the latter front the company has been talking about an incredibly thin smartphone, which will likely arrive as the Ascend P2. The Ascend P1 was only 7.69 millimeters thick, and the P1S just 6.68, but if what we've heard about the P2 is correct, this follow-up could measure-in under 6.45 millimeters. As we wait for a chance to see the phone in the flesh, the first press render of the Ascend P2 has leaked, giving us ...
