it's stupid UK politics slow down the technology. Feels like living in stone age. In the UK technology comes in half year later than anywhere else in the world. Even 3rd world country get tech faster than UK

        I think Huawei have missed the opportunity here. They have an advantage with this phone now, but by July equal spec and maybe better phones will be competing.

What he meant is that unless you know apple's release dates, there not all that much info in advance, especially details about the device. With other's you know a few months in advance what it will look like and feature, then you can decide to wait and buy, or buy one of the current models.

              I would buy quad-core tablet today, but for phones - dual core will be enought for a while ahead.

                This beast needs to be watched closely.If Huawei's was not cheap talk,I see the food chain getting disorganized very soon.I can't wait to see whether Samsung's Exynos and Nvidia's Tegra will get an appropriate answer this time around.

                  On the same day, Samsung galaxy S III revel in this news and strike Huawei where it hurts, they consequently announce SGSIII ETA will now be moved forward to have an April release date instead of the original July. Samsung have seen the Huawei threat and have decided to destroy them by beating them to market. Huawei, your phone is needed now, not July. SGSIII will now take all of your market share, first to market against your competitors is so important in your upstart position. Huawei you messed up at the last hurdle, how very sad. good bye Huawei, its game over for you, instead of striking while the iron is hot, your letting yourself nestle back into the background noise and your message will be lost, forgotten.

                      Nice!They actually care through actions for the performace,the UI,the software support and the consumer's wallet,they feel and care about consumer's needs so Huawey could become a succesfull mobile manufacturer while the overpriced samsung and htc deserve to take a good lesson

                        Dave, 21 Mar 2012Yeah but Apple only has a flagship phone that they sell. An... moreThat doesn't change the fact that you're probably going to be more screwed by buying an expensive Android phone just to see another released in less than 6 months that is going to dump your phone value as low as 50% of what you paid for... That would never happen with an iPhone, period.

                          Yeah, LG in the end of June, S3 and Ascend almost the same time - HTC has no competitors this Spring.

The iPhone is released once a year, so unless you wait more than 11 months yo buy that will never happen to you... I can't say the same with Android OEMs that release new phones every 3-6 months...
