Chinese phone giant Huawei has unveiled a new Android smartphone at Mobile World Congress with a surprising 5-megapixel front-facing camera. This is a much higher resolution than most front-facing cameras and is designed to take advantage of the popularity of self-portraits (‘selfies’).
Although not well known in the UK, Huawei attracted some attention last year when it launched the world’s thinnest phone, the Huawei Ascend P6. This did reasonably well in our lab tests though we felt it was a little under-powered and that the camera could have been better.
The new mid-range G6 isn’t quite as slim but in many other respects appears to be a step up in class from its older sibling. Read on to find to find out more about the new Android smartphone.
Huawei G6 – three key features
Improved performance – the Ascend P6 was Huawei’s top of the range model when it launched last year but no longer seems as advanced. The new G6 offers faster 4G connectivity and an improved 1.2GHz quad-core processor.
More modest design– the new phone isn’t as slim as the P6 and lacks that model’s brushed metal finish. Instead the G6 has a rubberised back which at least makes it easy to grip. Huawei has also saved money by using a smaller, lower resolution display (4.5-inches with 960×540 pixels down from 4.7-inches with 720×1280 pixels) though in our hands-on time with the phone it seemed reasonable.
High resolution front camera – Huawei hopes the G6 will stand-out from the crowd thanks to its unusual 5Mp front facing camera. That’s far more pixels than usual (most smartphones top out at around 2Mp) and the camera also comes with a wide angle lens so you can take group shots plus a special ‘selfie window’ so you can frame yourself perfectly.
