  • you sure it's 2 GB ram? seems like it's 1GB

    description
    Get ready for the Huawei Ascend Mate, which features a whopping 6.1" HD Display, a 4050mAh Battery, 1.5GHz Quad Core Processor, 1GB RAM, an 8MP Rear Camera with 1MP Front Camera, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and a 3.5mm headset connector, all on an Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system.

    • GSMArena says 2G as well - http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_ascend_mate-5237.php

      Anyway, it's a good alternative to the Moto G 2014. This one has more RAM but the home brand soon to be 3 yr old cpu is questionable.

      If it's 1G Ram then I don't see any reason choosing this over Moto G.

      • GSMArena also says "Android OS, v4.1 (Jelly Bean), upgradable to v4.2.2 (Jelly Bean)" so looks like not even KitKat

        • -2

          No way you will get KitKat from Huawei. It's lucky enough to get 4.2. Normally Chinese manufacture spend absolute $0 in software R&D.

        • @maxhu:

          Shitloads of Chinese Android phones has got the latest Android OS&softwares. Stop talking shit if you don't know shit.

          Lol, so much rage. I lived there for 20 years and still read about Chinese gadget, browse Taobao daily so i think i know a little too well.

          Meanwhile my friend I don't know which cave you came from.

    No LG G3 or Huawei P7 special?

    • +1

      +1 for LG G3
      What about HTC One M8? I'm on the prowl for these.

    • Just go for TGG ebay deal if you want a G3.

      • I mean if they have better lol ….

        • Lol, yeah, they should have joined the eBay bandwagon.

  • I have this phone. Huawei aren't updating this phone past 4.2.2. Custom roms are non-existent. The processor has a bad habit to crawl to a halt occasionally. Also, the headphone volume is limited and not very loud at all. The phone is fantastic for media and the screen is amazing, but I'm probably going to give it up for the G3. Though, I'll miss having that 2 day battery.

    • Mate 7 is awesome, should check that phone out. Just came out last month in AU market (JB HIFI and Harvey Norman are both selling it outright for $600 - $660.

      • +1

        Yeah, I looked at the Mate 7, but honestly I don't think I'll go for a Huawei phone again. I just want a reliable phone that'll get the latest updates, or at least have a ROM community that will provide updates.

      • For that price I don't need to by Huawei.

        • check out the specifications and the look of the phone first mate. No way I am not gonna pay 1k for new Samsung or Iphones. Mate7 ticks everything for me.

        • @arctan:

          Except bigger screen I don't see any better than LG 3 which is $480 at the moment.

          I was also looking at Mate 7 but no way I am going to pay $600+ for a phone that you knows that you are not going to get updates. Note 4 is $700+ now on TGG ebay store, much better buy that Mate 7. Of course if Mate 7 is $350, I will buy it.

        • @superforever:

          I am referring to the high end gold version with 3GB RAM Mate7. Dual SIM 4G LTE and finger print etc. Check JB HIFI webstie. The 3GB LG G3 is still over 600 bux and its lagging badly.

        • @stargalaxy:

          Looks like Huawei is pushing out lollipop to Mate7 and P7 in the next few months.

  • You have any deals on Ascend P7 or Mate 7?

    • Hi arctan

      sorry, not at moment.

  • +1

    Nice price

  • Any deal on Samsung Note 3 please?

  • Beware of Huawei devices, many of their phones use HiSilicon chipsets which means there is limited availibility of custom roms. You can also forget about Kit Kat, let alone Lollipop.

    The Huawei Ascend Mate has a very weak GPU based on a fairly outdated and slow Vivante GC4000. Don't buy this if you ever intend to play games — most likely the Zenfone 6 will do better and ASUS has confirmed Lollipop for it,
