LONDON: Huawei, the world’s fourth largest smartphone manufacturer, introduced the new handset to thunderous applause in London.
The Huawei P8 sports a squared, all-metal unibody design, which is reminiscent of the iPhone 5S.
It measures a sleek 6.4mm and boasts a curved, chamfered edge which Huawei says is inspired by “the pages, bindings and hardcovers of traditional books”.
The front of the P8 is dominated by its beautiful 5.2inch 1080p display which is bookended by two 1.5mm-thin bezels.
Powering Huawei’s new spill-resistant flagship is the company’s own 64-bit 2GHz octa-core Kirin 930 CPU and 3GB of RAM.
