Samsung Galaxy Note 2 vs. Huawei Ascend Mate: Note 2 Dwarfed by Huawei’s Phablet in Size and Features?
Chinese manufacturer Huawei recently released a mammoth phablet at the CES event that will holds up against Samsung's Galaxy Note 2.
If you think that the 5.5 inches screen size of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is big enough, the 6.1 inches screen of Ascend Mate is far massive that Samsung's phablet.
Aside from its ludicrous 6.1-inch, 361 ppi display, the Ascend Mate has a 4050mAh battery and a 1.5GHz HiSilicon K3V3 quad-core chip, both of which it will need to handle that wild screen that makes up 73 percent of the whole device. It runs Android Jelly Bean and has built-in augmented reality navigation capability and split-screen multi-tasking.
Samsung's phablet made quite a buzz last year as it boasts some amazing features such as incredibly fast processor, massive screen display, S-Pen and 4G/LTE connectivity. Below are the comparison of the specs and features of the two devices.
