The World’s Slimmest Phone Will Put On Sale in China Next Month!

We had already seen the Ascend P1 S, Huawei’s ‘impossibly thin’ smartphone, which died out Apple’s iPhone and Motorola Razr as the “world’s slimmest phone” last month at CES, and the company had disclosed the machine will sell on the second quarter of the year. Recently, the chairman of Huawei said the company intends to shift to an earlier launch date to start selling the P1 S as soon as the end of March in mainland China. However, there’s no word on the availability outside of China.

The ultra-thin P1 S has some top-of-the-line specs, including a incredibly sharp 960×540 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display, a dual-core 1.5GHz TI OMAP 4460 Cortex A9 processor. Huawei claims the phone’s 1800 mAh battery and the low power consumption hardware will use up to 30% less power than current comparable smartphones, therefore it will provide with better battery life than its rivals. The Android ICS smartphone also features an 8-megapixel rear-facing and 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera with dual flash LED and HDR effect optimization. Moreover, we are glad to hear Huawei Ascend P1 S getting listed by PC World as the 10 best smartphones at CES.
