Huawei has unveiled the Ascend P2 smartphone at the 2013 Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona. The company claims the phone is the ‘fastest 4G LTE’ smartphone.
The 8.4mm thick phone offers download speeds of about 150Mbps which allows users to ‘download HD movies in minutes, and load online videos, web pages, songs or e-Books in seconds’.
The Ascend P2 comes with ‘swift sharing’ which allows uploads and downloads two to three times faster than other smartphones in a Wi-Fi environment.
The phone features an NFC module for e-payments, runs on a 1.5GHz quad-core processor and has LTE Cat 4, Android 4.1 operating system and 4.7inch IPS HD in-cell touch display with second-generation Corning Gorilla Glass.
The HUAWEI Ascend P2 is scheduled to be on sale in France through Orange by June 2013 and will be available across the globe by the second quarter of 2013.
