Huawei makes Honor official, forgets to mention its other virtues
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHuaweiHonor
Sure, we love it when phones and spec lists leak out into the wild, but there's nothing like an official announcement to set the record straight. When we last saw the Huawei Honor, it claimed to have a single-core 1.4GHz processor, a 4-inch FWVGA (854x480) capacitive screen, and a radio primed for European and Asian bands. The official word? It's got all of that, but it's also packing an 8 megapixel rear facing camera (2MP up front), 512MB of RAM (with 4G ROM memory, and expandable up to 32GB) and a hefty 1900mAh battery.

Huawei MediPad now available for pre-order in Singapore
Like UnlikeFiled in: TabletsHuaweiMediaPad
It's here folks -- the planet's first Android 3.2 tablet. Huawei just introduced a downright luscious new slate over in Singapore, with CommunicAsia being the launchpad for the 7-inch MediaPad. It's the first high-profile 7-inch tablet we've seen in quite some time, and somehow or another, it's managed to leapfrog most of the currently shipping Honeycomb tablets with a build of Android we've only ever joked about. Huawei tells us that Honeycomb 3.2 is essentially the same as 3.1, but specifically tailored to 7-inch tablets as opposed to 10-inch. Packed within the MediaPad's 10.5mm shell, there's a 217 pixels-per-inch IPS capacitive touchpanel, GPS, 1.3 megapixel front-facing camera, 5 megapi...

AT&T to release the Huawei Impulse 4G for $29.99
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHuaweiImpulse 4G
AT&T has just announced a new smartphone called Huawei Impulse 4G, a low-end entry into Android and AT&T’s 4G market. The Impulse 4G will have a 3.8-inch screeen with 480×800 screen resolution, and running Android 2.2. It also has a 5 MP camera on the back with auto-focus, flash, and 720p video recording. Customers will be able to get their hands on this phone for $29.99 with the usual 2-year contract extension on Sept. 18.
Now, the Huawei Impulse doesn’t have any wow factor whatsoever; users should probably expect a dated single-core processor inside along with a max of 512MB of RAM, which is pretty standard for a low-level phone nowadays. This may be a good device for those customers who w...

Huawei Sonic reappears at the FCC, ditches AWS 3G and NFC functionality
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHuaweiM750
If this is the same "T-Mobile Sonic" we saw a month back, it's safe to assume Huawei took the Gingerbread slab back to the drawing board and away from a Magenta debut. Popping up, once again, over at the FCC, and bearing a different model number -- U8652 -- the new Sonic sports a similar rounded-edge design, although this current incarnation takes on a definite rectangular shape. Gone are both the formerly included NFC functionality and AWS bands, in favor of quadband GSM, UMTS 850 / 1900 / 2100 bands, 3.2 megapixel rear-facing camera, WiFi and Bluetooth. The handset's radios are tipping us in the direction of an AT&T destiny, but could also very likely indicate a bow on the networks to our ...

Huawei Vision hits the FCC, assaults the senses with a promo video
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHuaweiVision
Huawei this morning offered the world a video sneak peak of the Vision, its "most stylish smartphone yet," and like clockwork, the thing has popped up -- albeit less flashily -- on the FCC's site. The admittedly slick-looking handset packs Gingerbread, a 1GHz processor, and a 3.7 inch capacitive touchscreen into a unibody frame that's 9.9 millimeters at its thinnest. As for that "3D interface" the company's been talking up, you can see that in action after the break.

Huawei Vision unveiled: stylish 3.7" Gingerbread smartphone in unibody frame
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHuaweiVision
The Huawei Vision might not have the guts to compete with dual-core equipped powerhouses ruling the market, but with a 3.7” and 1GHz chip powering Gingerbread it definitely has what it takes to sell 1 million. And that's the exact sales target of the Shenzhen network equipment and phone maker Huawei.
The Vision is among the company's first attempts to go head-to-head with the big names in the industry, but it also kickstarts a series of smartphones for the company that are expected to be better linked to the cloud. Huawei's upcoming Cloud+ platform is expected to come with functionality similar to what services like iCloud aim to offer: remote access to media and applications. That certainl...

Huawei Sonic with AWS endorsed by FCC, fittingly given T-Mobile nametag
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesT-MobileHuaweiSonic
Turkey may have had the first yuckle with the Huawei Sonic, but that doesn't necessarily mean they'll get the last laugh. The Gingerbread handset received warm welcomes on TurkCell due to its inexpensive cost -- and included NFC functionality included doesn't hurt either. Just as it officially launched there, however, we were pleasantly surprised to see the Huawei UMG587 -- labelled the "T-Mobile Sonic" -- get pushed through the FCC. The docs not only confirm 850 / 1900 / 2100 3G bands thrown on top of T-Mobile's AWS, but also bluntly mention HSPA+ download speeds will be maxed out at 42Mbps. We found it interesting that Turkcell's model only reaches 7.2Mbps, so we're hoping the full maximum...

Huawei in trouble with the government again, this time in Taiwan
Like UnlikeFiled in: Huawei
Huawei may be the world’s second largest provider of infrastructure equipment, but the fact that they’re a Chinese company has done them more harm than good when it comes to the interests of national security in the United States and India. Both of those countries have banned operators from using Huawei gear, and now it looks like a third nation is set to outlaw their hardware: Taiwan. According to the Taipei Times, the National Communications Commission (NCC) of Taiwan has decreed that telecommunications operators can no longer use technology supplied by Huawei. The operators that will be impacted by this decision include Asia-Pacific Telecom, Vibo, Taiwan Mobile and Far EasTone Telecommuni...
