Expect another Huawei phablet soon, in the 5.5-inch C199. The device was spotted at TENAA being certified earlier today, telltale signs that a launch in around the corner.
The phone is quite an interesting one, since it can neither be classified as an entry-level device nor a high-end one. It will come with Huawei’s in-house HiSilicon Kirin 920 SoC, which houses an octa-core CPU. However, unlike MediaTek’s ‘true’ octa-core MT6592, the HiSilicon Kirin 920 will come with two sets of cores, on consisting of 4x Cortex A15 and the other, 4x Cortex A7 cores. The big.LITTLE architecture used on the device means that either of the two sets will be operational at a single time.
Specifications
5.5-inch 1280 x 720p display
2GB RAM
16GB on-board ROM
13 mega-pixel rear camera
5 mega-pixel front facing camera
Battery: yet to be announced
Android v4.4.2 KitKat
Sources close to the Chinese maker report that the device is likely to get a 2000 CNY or $320 pricing, putting it in league with the likes of the OnePlus One, Xiaomi Mi4, etc.
A couple of radio variants are expected to be launched parallelly, to take care of international and Chinese markets.
