As promised, Huawei Ascend P2 was unveiled at the MWC 2013 event in Barcelona.
Ascend P2 is running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS with Emotion UI v1.6 and features a 4.7-inch 720p IPS screen with 312 ppi ratio protected by Gorilla Glass 2. The phone relies on a quad-core Huawei processor running at 1.5GHz, 1GB RAM and 16GB of built-in storage, sadly there’s no support for MicroSD cards. That’s not all – there is a 13MP camera with BSI sensor and 1080p video recording + HDR support for both pictures and videos, 2x zoom without any loss in quality and as a bonus there’s a dedicated hardware camera key, sweet huh!
