Huawei Ascend Mate 3 specs confirmed via AnTuTu

Huawei Ascend Mate 3 is out in the open again but still not official. A few days ago we saw its back panel and now we get confirmation of the rumored specs from an AnTuTu screenshot. The Mate 3 maintains the traditional for the series 6.1" screen but makes the jump to 1080p resolution.

The Ascend Mate lineup in the past has traditionally included mid-range phablets - but that was obviously only until now. It seems that the latest model will be moving towards a higher-end position.

The Ascend Mate 3 is powered by a HiSilicon Kirin 920 chipset (four Cortex-A7 plus four Cortex-A15 cores), with 2GB or 3GB RAM and it runs Android 4.4.2. It's the same chipset used in the Huawei Honor 6, Huawei bragged about it beating Snapdragon 805-based competition when it announced that.

The camera is the same as on the Ascend Mate2 4G, a 13MP main camera with 1080p video capture and a 5MP selfie camera.

When the back panel photos leaked it wasn’t perfectly clear but the new rumor suggests that the panel is made of metal. That still leaves the question what the second hole on the back is for (a fingerprint scanner?).
