Chinese communications giant Huawei launched its Ascend Mate smartphone in India. The 6.1-inch phablet is now available at online retailer Infibeam with a price tag of Rs 24,900.
The device weighs a hefty 198 gram and measures just 6.5mm along the waistline, making it thinner than iPhone 5.
The phablet comes with a 6.1-inch IPS (720×1280 pixels) display with Magic Touch technology, similar to the one on Nokia Lumia 920 that allows users to use gloves with the panel.
Its specs are pretty respectable too, with a quad-core 1.5GHz processor and 2GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel camera and Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean). It comes with a massive 4,050mAh battery.
In comparison, the Galaxy Mega has a 1.7GHz dual-core processor, 4G and the more up-to-date Android 4.2.
Connectivity options include 2G, 3G, Wi-Fi, microUSB 2.0 and Bluetooth 4.0. The Ascend Mate will play nicely with 802.11 a/b/g/n bands of Wi-Fi. It comes with support for dual-band Wi-Fi, DLNA, Wi-Fi Direct and, of course, Wi-Fi hotspot. The phablet competes against the like of the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 and the Samsung Galaxy Note II.
The Mate will be available in stores and online retailers in Crystal Black and Pure White colours.
