The successor to the Huawei Ascend P6, the most prominent smartphone of this Chinese company, is already around the corner, and after the usual rumors about this type of launch, part of its technical characteristics have already been leaked.
In a document sent anonymously to the GSMArena website, it is revealed that the Huawei Ascend P7 would be equipped with a 5-inch TFT LCD touch screen and Full HD resolution (that is, 1,080 x 1,920 pixels) and a Li-Ion battery of 2,460 mAh. At the heart of the terminal we would find a HiSilicon Balong 910 chipset on which a quad-core processor capable of operating at a speed of 1.60 GHz would be mounted. As far as RAM memory is concerned, it would amount to 2 gigabytes, while its 16 gigabyte internal memory could be expanded without problems thanks to itsmicroSD card slot, with support for drives up to 32 gigabytes.
The new Huawei Ascend P7, known by the development code name Sophia, would also have a 13-megapixel rear camera with automatic focus function and LED flash, while the camera included in the front would have 8 megapixels, characteristics that make it strong when it comes to video calls and selfies. Regarding its external appearance, it would maintain the lines of the design of its predecessor, with a metallic chassis, and would be prepared to work under LTE network with Cat 4 certification in the 800 MHz and 1.8, 2.1 and 2.6 bands. GHz.
In the leaked document, some of the main virtues of this smartphone are highlighted to be used as selling points, such as a construction with "exquisite materials" and the customization of the Android operating system with the Emotion 2.0 interface. The Huawei Ascend P7 smartphone is expected to be available in April 2014 at a price that is still unknown.
Huawei's rise in recent years has been meteoric, with sales forecasts for all of 2013 of 55 million phones worldwide, of which 20 million of them would be sold in the last quarter alone, according to its vice president of marketing Shao Yang. Thus, with these good results, the third market place is currently disputed against giants such as LG and Lenovo, ranking just behind the omnipotent Samsung and Apple according to the most recent report by the IDG consultancy, corresponding to the third quarter of 2013.
The current standard-bearer of this Asian company, Huawei Ascend P6, can be acquired subsidized and linked to a permanence contract with most of the Spanish operators, and its adjusted price stands out especially if we take into account the technical characteristics included. We can buy it free for about 350 euros, and even less if we look for offers in the most common Internet portals.
