While the Huawei Ascend P1 was revealed this past January, there’s been very little to suggest it’s coming any time soon. A new FCC approval may have changed all that, however, as the device is now certified to be sold in the United States. The 4.3 inch device is quite the slim wonder with a [...]
Samsung has been on a roll in the Android world ever since they launched the Galaxy S, which again besides the very controversial design, it had some very innovative features, like the Super AMOLED display, which at the time was absolutely incredible compared to any mobile LCD on the market, and the very powerful Hummingbird [...]
Next in line to receive the ever coveted ICS 4.0 update is Huawei’s MediaPad tab. As one of the first devices to sport Honeycomb on a 7-inch platform, the tablet is on schedule to receive the 329 mb download that is Android 4.0. In addition, the update doesn’t seem to be tainted with the manufacturer’s version of [...]
Here we have yet another case of carrier branded versions sitting by the way side laying in wait. Huawei Has recently released an Ice Cream Sandwich update for the MediaPad. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first ICS update to land for a 7-inch tablet in the wild. We could be [...]
Talk about next gen phones- when I think about this, I think about Tony Stark working in his laboratory building some sort of cool new toy! Imagine, not touching your phone to do stuff? That’s exactly what Huawei wants us to do. Huawei is a Chinese telecommunications supplier. They have been expanding into the smartphone, [...]
A couple years ago, those of us in the United States didn’t know much about Huawei. As 2012 moves on, we’re starting to see this company in the news a lot more. Huawei is creating the next line of myTouch phones on T-Mobile, and also claims to have one of the world’s thinnest smartphones in [...]
This is history in the making and also an end of an era – an era of 14 years in which Nokia dominated the world as the biggest phone manufacturer. From here on, that top position belongs to Samsung. I’ve realized this would happen about 2 years ago, when I started noticing how fast Samsung [...]
Huawei Ascend P1 S The Ascend P1 S is Huawei’s first foray into the high-end smartphone segment an attempt to shed their bargain bin stigma of the past. It is being touted as the world’s thinnest LTE device, and it will rock a 1.5 GHz dual-core TI OMAP SoC and run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. It [...]
There’s this pretty crazy, although not completely unbelievable rumor that Google is in talks with Huawei to sell off the Motorola hardware division, which means they did in fact buy Motorola mostly for their 25,000 patents. I was actually expecting Google to try some new cool things with Motorola’s hardware division, or at least if [...]
Android is only starting to becoming popular in China thanks to companies like Huawei and ZTE mainly, but also thanks to other Android manufacturers. In the little time they’ve been trying to sell Android phones there, Android has already reached an unbelievable market share of 68.4%, which caused Nokia to cut its market share in [...]
Though attention has shifted to Huawei’s quad-core devices since January, the Ascend P1 still looks to make a splash. The handset, which was first unveiled at CES, looks to make its debut in April according to news out of a recent Huawei event. The phone will launch first in China and follow up with releases [...]
This has been a great week for Android rumors and possible device informtion. With potential new devices from Samsung, Sony, HTC, Motorola and Huawei - the Android community could be looking at some very solid new choices for the months ahead. I am looking forward to seeing how some of these devices pan out. Leaked screenshot shows [...]
The myTouch has been made by HTC and LG, but I believe they are both moving on from making phones under other companies’ brands. Plus, I’m sure T-mobile wants to pay at little as possible for it. Here comes Huawei who is willing to do that for them and start getting some name recognition in [...]
T-Mobile seems to be continuing the MyTouch line with Huawei as TmoNews has uncovered an early photo of the device. Not much is known at this time but we do know it runs Android 2.3.6 and will likely have a custom user interface. This particular model also won’t have a keyboard, but don’t rule out [...]
The Huawei Prism rumor mill is gaining steam. Following a brief visit to the FCC, we’ve finally gotten our first real look at the device. Well, it’s not technically real. It’s a press shot, but they usually give us a good indication of what to expect. The device is as small as we’d expected, around [...]
Huawei’s looking to come to town with another low-end device, it seems, as the Huawei Prism model number U8651T has passed the FCC. Its model number seems to position it close to the Huawei Sonic, a device which launched on T-Mobile last year. It had a 3.5 inch display, 512MB of RAM, Android 2.3 and [...]
![Featured: [MWC] But what about the quad core tablets?](http://androidheadlines.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Tegra3_-300x200.jpg)
Mobile World Congress 2012 has come and gone, and where CES 2012 was a letdown for Android device fans, MWC brought a lot of announcements of new devices headed to market soon. There were lots and lots of new devices unveiled that covered the low end of the market, the very high end of the [...]

Huawei is trying to outdo not only themselves at this MWC event, but also everyone else. Their MediaPad 10 FHD is the most advanced Android tablet announced MWC so far. It features their own quad core 1.5 Ghz processor, which they claim it’s even better than Nvidia’s Tegra 3, it has a Full HD resolution [...]
I’ve been expecting for the “year of LG” or the “year of Sony”, but clearly 2011 wasn’t theirs, and while they are closing the gap, it still doesn’t look like both of them will be very worthy of being considered a top manufacturer that can compete with Samsung, HTC and Motorola. But surprisingly, Huawei may [...]
We're live at Huawei's Ascend D series announcement, where the manufacturer's just taken the lid off its first quad-core smartphone, the Ascend D quad.

We’re in Barcelona this afternoon (or, in the US, this morning), and Huawei has just taken the wraps off its latest and greatest smartphone – the Ascend D Quad. It’s almost as thought the name is suggesting something about the phone’s hardware. Powering the device is Huawei’s first in-house smartphone processor – the K3V2. It [...]
We’re just a couple of days away from MWC, the biggest mobile event every year. All the companies that make mobile devices will be there showing their products that should launch a few months from now. So let’s see what the big players will bring to the table at MWC and in the first half [...]
Mobile World Congress is fast approaching and leading up to what is the biggest show for mobile devices, we have leaks of a few powerful new Android smartphones. First up we have a new 3D device from LG which is rumored to be named the Optimus 3D 2 in the US. The leak shows a [...]
Microsoft has been making a lot of news of late, what with all of the patent licensing deals that they’ve been striking with the Android OEM’s over the last several months. The latest such OEM being LG, but Microsoft has bagged most of the big ones. Samsung, HTC, ASUS, Acer and LG along with lesser [...]
After Huawei's song-and-dance this morning at CES, the press got some quality hands-on time with the company's newest flagship device, the Ascend P1/P1S. The P1 is the thinnest smartphone on the market today (the P1S has an LTE radio and therefore is a bit fatter– you'll see in some comparison shots in the gallery), [...]
Huawei kicked off CES right this morning by introducing its Ascend P1, the world's new king of thin. It's officially the world's thinnest smartphone, though the P1S model is slightly thicker due to its LTE connectivity. Richard Hu, Chairman of Huawei devices, was onhand to make his comapny's intentions quite clear: Huawei is a major [...]
We heard last week that US Cellular would be carrying the Huawei Ascend II — a 3.5-inch candy bar style Android phone running Gingerbread — and today they have made it available at the low price of free on a new agreement and after rebates. While the Ascend II isn't a powerhouse (it has a [...]
There is always going to be a place for a mid-level Android device, especially ones that are free. U.S. Celluar is now offering the Huawei Ascend II for free after a 0 mail-in rebate. With Android 2.3, a 3.5″ screen, and a 600MHz processor it’s not the strongest phone on the block, but hey it’s free. [...]
US Cellular today announced it's carrying the Huawei Ascend II. The phone's decidedly mid-level, but the price is right — free after 0 mail-in rebate. Full specs include: 3.5-inch display at HVGA resolution Android 2.3 Gingerbread Qualcomm MSM 7627 processor at 600 MHz 5MP camera Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR 2GB microSD 1400 mAh battery [...]
The Huawei Ascend II will apparently be available online next week for US Cellular. The device is a mid-range follow-up to the original that doesn’t take many risks compared to the original. We’ve got a 3.5 inch display, a 5 megapixel camera and Android 2.3. This sequel might not be worth it to Ascend 1 [...]
Youtube link for mobile viewing We have seen some manufacturers talk about what goes into bringing Ice Cream Sandwich to their devices, but Huawei has skipped the talking part and gone right for the releasing part. Subtly on their site they released a demo ROM for the Huawei Honor. Of course we had to [...]
Less than a month after the source for Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich was released, Huawei has released a “demo-build” of the new operating system for its Honor smartphone. The demo build was posted on the phone’s support page and is available in both simplified Chinese and the standard languages offered in in the Android [...]
I bet you didn’t see this coming. The Huawei Honor is the first Android smartphone to receive an update to Ice Cream Sandwich. Available now on the handset manufacturer’s website is a “demo-build” of Android 4.0 for all Honor owners to download. It’s a much quicker turnaround process than expected, and beats other manufacturers to [...]
