Huawei Ascend Mate 7 gets photographed out and about

The Huawei Ascend Mate 7 is clearly going to be introduced next week, on September 4 to be precise. It's on that day that Huawei will hold a pre-IFA press conference, and given all the teasers it's been releasing lately, it's pretty clear what we should expect.

In the meantime, the much leaked Ascend Mate 7 has once again decided to star in a photo shoot somewhere in the wild.

The pictures aren't the highest quality, but they are enough to give us yet another confirmation about the phone's design, as well as the fact that it will come with a fingerprint scanner on its back.

This has actually been more or less acknowledged by Huawei itself through a recent teaser. The Ascend Mate 7 is expected to feature a 6-inch 1080p touchscreen, a 13 MP rear camera with LED flash, and a 5 MP front snapper.

It's due to be powered by a HiSilicon Kirin 920 chipset, which will come with a CPU having four 1.8 GHz Cortex-A15 cores and four Cortex-A7 battery-friendly cores. Speaking of which, the new phablet could come with a 4,000 mAh cell.

The Ascend Mate 7 has also been rumored to pack 2GB of RAM and 16GB of built-in storage. Huawei officials have even apparently said that the Ascend Mate 7 is going to be "by far" the best big-screen phone around, and that it's built like it's worth more than CNY 5,000 ($813). Don't panic, however, for Huawei certainly won't price it that high. The company is, after all, known for decently priced offerings with good specs, and we can't remember ever seeing a Huawei device in such a price range.
