Huawei’s previously rumoured Mulan
smartphone is now official as the company’s top tier Honor 6 model.
The device is meant as the company’s answer to other
flagship smartphones in the market such as the Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One
M8; and as such comes with killer specs. For starters, the Honor 6 is equipped
with Huawei’s very own Kirin 920 chip with two quad-core processors, a
Mali-T624 GPU, 3GB of RAM and 16GB or 32GB of expandable internal storage.
The phone’s 5-inch display is from JDI and boasts Full HD
resolution and a screen density of 445 ppi. The display is able to occupy over
75% of the phone’s front thanks to its very thin bezels.
Connectivity-wise the Honor 6 carries the typical set of
connectivity features including Bluetooth v4.0 with A2DP, Wi-Fi, and Cat 6 LTE
connectivity that offers up to 300Mbps downlink speed.
The Honor 6 also comes equipped with a 13MP camera with dual-LED
flash and Sony’s IMX214 sensor and f/2.0 aperture lens. The front-facing camera
has a 5MP sensor with an f/2.4 lens. The phone will be powered by a 3100mAh
battery and will run on Android 4.4.2 KitKat.
Huawei will offer the Honor 6 in the coming weeks for
$359.90 in either black or white.
