How to Play Flash on the 6.1-Inch Huawei Ascend Mate

Huawei Ascend Mate

How large is too large for a smartphone's display? Looking back on the CES 2013, you'll find some attractive large screen (5-inch and more) handsets: Sony Xperia Z, LG Optimus Vu 2, etc. Today we'll continually talk about another gigantic one: the 6.1-inch Huawei Ascend Mate.

The Huawei Ascend Mate will be sold in China firstly in this month, priced at $ 575 (about RMB 3583). This device comes up with a 6.1-inch screen, which is larger than Samsung Galaxy Note II's 5.5-inch one. However, the screen resolution is only in 720p. 

Detailed specifications from Huawei official website:

• 6.1-inch HD IPS + 1280 x 720 LCD touchscreen with Corning Gorilla glass
• Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
• 1.5 GHz quad-core Hi-Silicon K3V2 processor
• 2GB of RAM
• 8.0 MP rear-facing camera with HDR
• 1.0 MP HD front-facing camera
• 4050 mAh battery

Thought the Ascend Mate isn't equipped with a 1080p display, it's still suitable to play HD movies and games. Then how about playing SWF on Ascend Mate? Since Android and iOS platforms are no longer supported by Adobe Flash, user who want to play swf files on devices should look for alternatives. For Android geeks, currently they have two choices: install a flash player from Google Play, or convert flash to videos and play on their devices.

Today we'll have to see "How to convert flash files and play them on Huawei Ascend Mate". As an old saying goes, "a handy tool makes a handy man", to convert swf files to videos, we need a handy tool called SWF to MP4 Converter.

The following process shows how we usually do the conversion.

Step 2 Import flash file. On the main user interface, click "Browse..." button and choose "From Folder" option to import local swf file from your computer. You are also able to select "From Url" option to input an online flash file to the converter.

Step 4 Now set the parameters of output video to ensure the video can be played on Ascend Mate perfectly. Click "Settings" button, a window named "Profile" pops up.

Parameters setting

Step 5 Start conversion by clicking the "Convert" tab. You can click "Play and Capture" and "Finish" buttons to start the process. When it's finished, you can simply transfer video to your smartphone. Enjoy playing swf on Huawei Ascend Mate!
