Huawei Ascend P2

Huawei

Huawei held its big presser on Sunday afternoon, and announced the mid-to-high-end Ascend P2. A 4.7-inch phone running Android 4.2 and its “Emotion UI,” the P2 shows Huawei’s high-end ambitions, and that was a point hammered home at every opportunity by Huaweu Device boss Richard Yu and marketing director Amy Lou.

 

Whether it’s through camera technology, battery size, custom CPUs or software tweaks to improve battery life, Huawei is seeking every advantage to push into the high-end space. Huawei’s phones (and presentations) might be lacking the pizzazz of its larger rivals, but the company seems intent on edging its way into the high-end smartphone market by sheer force of will.
