Huawei Ascend Mate 2 4G Specs

9.5

Description

Huawei unleashed a sequel to the phone with the largest battery, Ascend Mate, dubbed simply Ascend Mate 2. The 6.1" phablet carries a 720x1280 pixels display and 4050 mAh battery, like its predecessor, but is improved in much everything else. It is thinner, at 9.5 mm, with LTPS display technology, and a faster processor, which can be either Huawei's own Hi-Silicon brand, or a Snapdragon, depending on whether you'd want LTE connectivity. The Mate 2 has 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage, and a microSD slot. On the rear we get a new 13 MP shooter, and a 5 MP one will carry your video chat sessions at the front.

This device is also known as Huawei MT2-L03

for the price an all around winner
Phone owned for less than a month

for what I paid for this phone, I could not be happier. I don't watch vids on my phone so the resolution isn't an issue for me. It's super fast and responsive and feels good in my hands despite it's size/weight. Not a one handed phone.

Nice device if you aren't into specs, GREAT battery life!
Phone owned for less than a month

For 300 dollars (USD), you can get a pretty darn good smartphone. It might not have the top end specs of the flagship devices, but, it's half the cost too! The battery & screen size are the big pluses on this device.
