Huawei Ascend W1,pic from Windows Phone Central |
Two months ago I posted an article about Huawei's very first Windows Phone 8 --- the Ascend W1, which should had been announced in December. According to CNET's report, Huawei finally unveiled this tardy handset at CES 2013 in Las Vegas.
The phone's hardware specs are almost the same as previous leaked ones.The Ascend W1 comes up with a 4.0-inch display in 800*480 pixels resolution. It also has a 1.2 GHz Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor (with Adreno305 GPU), 512 MB of RAM, expandable 4GB of ROM (up to 32GB), a 1950 mAH battery, a 5 MP rear camera, a 0.3 MP VGA front facing camera, a detachable back case and NFC.
Dimensions of the handset is 124.5*63.5*10.5 mm. Several colors are available for the case: blue, pink, white, black, etc. Seems like it's configuration is a little higher than HTC 8S, another budget Windows Phone 8.
Based on the interview between CNET and Richard Bhudhikanok, Huawei's product manager, sounds like there would be some more expected new devices coming. Bhudhikanok claimed that he's unable to leak schedules or release dates of any new products. He smiled and said the company is developing a new Windows Phone 8 device, which is similar to the 6.1'' Ascend Mate.
Considering that 2 innovative devices to be announced at MWC 2103, mentioned by Bhudhikanok at CES 2013 today, it would probably be a highlight for the February show.
