Huawei Ascend P2 Officially Unveiled in MWC

Huawei Ascend P2

Huawei Ascend P2, the next flagship smartphone from the giant Chinese smartphone manufacturer is now official. It gets some fire-power but disappointed many of us as there is no full HD display. We were expecting this to happen as all leaks were suggesting that it is going to have HD 720p display. However, it’s still a good choice. In-home K3V2 chip with 1.5 GHz quad core Cortex A9 ensures fair amount of performance enhancement especially when the RAM is 1 GB. Nowadays we see 2 GB RAM is a must for a flagship but Huawei is planning to tighten the budget. That may be the reason they have avoided full HD display and reduced RAM to 1 GB. Earlier in CES Huawei unveiled Ascend D2 with full HD display, 2 GB RAM and same K3V2 chip.
There is a 13 MP camera rear shooter that records full HD video at 30 fps. Dedicated hardware key for the camera is an added bonus. Normally, we don’t see this in modern smartphones but it’s good to have one. It comes only with 16 GB flavor. There is no micro SD card slot which is certainly disappointing. Considering that Huawei must have also thought for a 32 GB variant.
Built on Android 4.1 JellyBean Huawei Ascend P2 is using Emotion v1.6 screen on top of JellyBean UI. Possibly, it’s going to get upgrade to JellyBean v4.2. Some other features like Quick Power Control, ADRX have been used in this smartphone. According to Huawei all these technologies reduce power consumption and also reduce charging time by 25%. Being a 4.7 inch droid Huawei Ascend P2 gets a 2420 mAh Li-Po battery which is very impressive.

Key Features of Huawei Ascend P2

  • OS: Android 4.1 JellyBean
  • SoC: 1.5 GHz Quad Cortex A9, Huawei K3V2
  • RAM: 1 GB
  • Display: 4.7 inch IPS LCD, HD 1280×720 pixels, 312 ppi, Corning Gorilla Glass

  • Storage: 16 GB, no micro SD
  • Battery: 2420 mAh
  • Camera: 13 MP rear, 1.3 MP front

  • Navigation: A-GPS, GLONASS
  • Dimension: 136.2 x 66.7 x 8.4 mm
  • Weight: 122 gm
  • Sound: Dolby Mobile Plus sound
It’s good that Huawei Ascend P2 is officially showcased. But it’s not clear whether it’s coming to Indian market or not. No expected price for the Indian market. Keeping current competition in Indian soil Huawei must think of selling it out at competitive price.
