[News] Huawei Launches the Ascend P6 in NZ
Huawei and 2Degrees are launching the new Huawei Ascend P6 today. The P6 is the world’s slimmest smartphone measuring just 6.18mm, and features a 1.5GHz quad-core processor in a sleek metallic body. With its 4.7-inch high definition in-cell display and a 5MP front-facing camera, the Huawei Ascend P6 is the embodiment of elegance with an edge.
“The Huawei Ascend P6 is a star among smartphones with its industry-leading design, high-quality camera, and intuitive user interface, Huawei’s Emotion UI,” said Richard Yu, Chief Executive Officer, Huawei Consumer Business Group. “Building on the success of our Ascend P series of smartphones, the Huawei Ascend P6 provides unsurpassed technology and a design that is simply stunning.”
Huawei New Zealand Head of Devices Jacky Zhao said it was a hugely exciting launch as it marked the first time the Ascend P series, which combines high performance with cutting edge design, had been available to New Zealand consumers.
“This is a flagship device for the Ascend P-series and we think people will be surprised and impressed by what Huawei is able to achieve with these devices.”
Tim Hayward, 2Degrees Head of Mobile Devices, says:
“We are delighted to be the first NZ network to be launching Huawei’s flagship Smartphone for 2013. Huawei is a very important technology partner for us and we are pleased to support the huge leap forward they are taking with the release of the P6.”
Perfect for ‘selfies’, the Huawei Ascend P6’s 5MP front-facing camera and auto facial-enhancing capabilities create model-gorgeous shots you’ll want to share. Its 8MP rear-facing BSI camera with F2.0 aperture and 4cm macro view also enables 1080P full HD video recording and playback. With Huawei’s proprietary IMAGESmart software, the Huawei Ascend P6 turns even the most novice photographer into a professional, with contrast and colour enhancement, auto scene recognition, object tracing focus, and instant facial beauty support.
The Huawei Ascend P6 is available in black and white with matching colour cases. It has an RRP of $599 and is available for $0 upfront on a 2Degrees $69 CarryoverPlan from September 2nd 2013. It will also be available from 2Degrees stores and selected retailers.
