Huawei to launch new mobile Huawei Ascend P8 smartphone in April

Huawei Ascend P7 , Huawei’s facilities in China and several company executives have revealed that the company will be launching a follow up to the successful Ascend P7 later this year but the handset won’t be launching at the MWC 2015. Jerry Huang, Director of Marketing Communications at Huawei Global, confirmed that whilst the company will launch three new wearable devices at MWC in a few weeks, the company’s next-generation Ascend smartphone won’t launch until later this year. We’ve heard that the Ascend P8 will share several design similarities with the company’s existing P-Series devices but rather than launch at the annual MWC trade show, the company will hold a separate launch event in April to introduce the world to its new device. The P8 is expected to share the same DNA as the P7 (and P6) and will focus on the key ideals of beauty, functionality and performance

Rather than unveiling its latest flagship smartphone at the upcoming Mobile World Congress, Huawei will again be hosting its own launch event in Europe. However, the company is said to have three wearable products planned for its event at MWC this year as well.
