Believed to be a mid-range device in line with the Ascend smartphones recently shown at the CES 2013 event, the Huawei G615 runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (Jelly Bean update will be rolled out mid-2013) and is powered by a 1.4GHz quad-core HiSilicon K3V2 processor. There’s a 1GB of RAM and 8GB of built-in storage as well as a microSD slot for storage expansion.
The Ascend G615 has an 8MP camera with support for 1080p HD recording and comes with a decent 2150 mAh battery. Other features include Dolby Digital Plus audio tech, 3G with 21Mbps HSDPA, Wi-Fi b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0.
The Huawei G615 will be initially available in Germany with a price tag of €300 (Rs. 21,445 approximately). The device is expected to hit other markets later this year.
