New Huawei Ascend Mate has 6.1-inch display

Huawei has decided that bigger is better.
The Chinese company has introduced its new Ascend Mate smartphone with a massive 6.1-inch 1080p Android phone.

Officially, the phone will be unveiled at CES but it appears exec Richard Yu was a bit impatient with the new flagship.

The device has a 1.8GHz HiSilicon K3V3 quad-core chip, a 4,000mAh battery and a thin form factor at 9.9mm thick.

For fans, Yu also revealed that the display is LTPS (low temperature polysilicon) with 361ppi.
