Huawei Introduces the World's Fastest Smartphone: The Ascend D quad
BARCELONA, Spain, February 26, 2012/PRNewswire/ --
With Huawei's proprietary quad-core chip and power management system
Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions
provider, today introduced the world's fastest quad-core smartphone, the Huawei Ascend D
quad. Powered by the Huawei's K3V2 quad-core 1.2GHz/1.5GHz processor and boasting the most
compact design among 4.5-inch smartphones, the Ascend D quad expands the realm of
possibilities for consumers with an Android 4.0 operating system and Huawei's proprietary
power management system which provides up to 30% in energy savings.
"We've listened to people's top demands from smartphones: speed, long-battery life,
high quality visual and audio capabilities, and a compact, lightweight handset. The Huawei
Ascend D quad exceeds these expectations," said Richard Yu, Chairman of Huawei Device. "In
January at the Consumer Electronics Show at Las Vegas, we achieved a world record for the
world's slimmest smartphone with the Huawei Ascend P1 S. We are proud to once again
introduce a world-first at the 2012 Mobile World Congress with the Ascend D quad, the
fastest smartphone."
The Ascend D quad is an entertainment dynamo with its 4.5-inch 720P high definition
touchscreen, and the industry's most powerful 32-bit true color graphic processor. Its PPI
330 screen providing crystal clear display even under direct sunlight, is complemented by
its Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound and Audience earSmart(TM) voice technology for an experience
which excels across the senses. Its 8-megapixel BSI rear-facing camera, 1.3 megapixel
front-facing camera, and 1080p full HD video-capture and playback capabilities enables you
to record your special moments in clearer, richer detail.
The Ascend D quad comes with an 1800mAh battery, which lasts for one to two days with
normal usage. The smartphone's prowess is enhanced by Huawei Device's proprietary power
management technology which provides a longer battery life of up to 30% compared to
industry average by adjusting power consumption according to usage needs. It also ensures
higher chipset performance and efficiency by maintaining a low chip temperature.
Measuring 64mm narrow and 8.9mm slim, the Ascend D quad is proof that good things do
come in small packages. With an ultra-thin frame, the lightweight and compact smartphone's
4.5-inch touchscreen seems to vanish into the edge, creating an "infinity" feel and
allowing an exceptionally narrow body.
In addition to innovative hardware design, the Ascend D quad also has outstanding
software design. In addition to its Android 4.0 operating system, the Ascend D quad
optimizes the user experience, ensuring greater ease of use.
As part of the Ascend D series, Huawei also introduced the Ascend D quad XL and the
Ascend D1 smartphones. The Ascend D quad XL comes with a 2500mAh battery which provides
two to three days of normal usage. With the same specifications as the Ascend D quad, the
Ascend D quad XL measures 10.9 mm slim. The Ascend D1 runs on a 1.5 GHz dual-core CPU and
has a 1670mAh battery.
The Ascend D quad series will be available in China, Australia, Europe, Asia-Pacific,
North and South America, and the Middle East in Q2 2012. The Ascend D1 will be available
in the above markets from April 2012.
