Huawei have just unveiled the new P8 at a media event in London.
The “Ascend” brand has been removed from the P8, which I personally prefer – the shorter the name, the better (as easier to type).
As you can clearly see, Huawei have put a lot of effort into the design, including the packaging.
They are trying to appeal to a wider audience. Huawei says its for those who “pursue high fashion and the latest design trends”.
A more detailed story will appear on Vodacom Now tomorrow. In the mean time, here are some photos of the 5.2″ device.

This packaging ain’t cheap.
The all metal design feels premium.
Above from left you can see the nano SIM slot, the secondary nano SIM/micro SD slot, power button and volume key.
Huawei compared their camera to other smartphones and the fact that it does not have a protruding lens. Flat back.
The various themes on the smartphone. Aimed to appeal to fashionistas, business folk and the hip crowd.
