    It's nice that's cheaper, but the specs are a little lower also: no wireless 5Ghz, no noise reduction mic, older bluetooth standard, shorter battery life...

        In Malaysia, Lumia 620 = RM799 rrp
        if this Huawei W1 come to Malaysia, it will be at least USD260 = RM790..

        What's the point?
        Lumia 620 for the win in Malaysia!

          The truth is simply this: Chinese are willing to shell out the extra cash to flash a Foreign Brand despite specs and relevant logic. Foreign brands are fashionable in China especially when it comes to mobile phones - in general, ostentation is the name of the game. A cheaper price might give Huawei an advantage in other developing countries, but not at home.
