Huawei Mate 8 Pegged To Get Unleashed At IFA 2015

The IFA 2015 event that will be held at the beginning of September in Berlin is steadily drawing near. On Sept. 2, Huawei is poised to unveil the Huawei Mate 8 flagship. Rumors have it that the design and specs of the forthcoming Huawei Nexus 2015 will be based on the Huawei Mate 8.

The Huawei Mate 8 will be a phablet device as it expected to feature a huge display of 6 inches. It will be supporting Quad HD resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels.

Phone Arena claims that the Chinese manufacturer will stick with full HD resolution displays for its future smartphones. Hence, it has released the Huawei P8max with a massive display of 6.8 inches with support for full HD resolution.

But since Google is pegged to release the Huawei-built Nexus 2015 smartphone with Quad HD resolution, the Chinese manufacturer had to go with Quad HD resolution on the Mate 8.

The Huawei Mate 8 should be powered by the home-baked HiSilicon Kirin 950 chipset, although this is not yet officially announced. According to Android Authority, the chipset will feature an octa-core processor. It features quad cores of Cortex A72 and quad cores of Cortex A53. The processor can produce a maximum processing speed of 2.4 GHz. The chipset also includes ARM Mali-T80 graphics.

The Huawei Mate 8 will be released in two internal storage variants with different capacities of RAM. The 32 GB model will be housing 3 GB of RAM and the 64 GB variant will come with 4 GB.

The handset will come with dual-SIM capabilities and will also feature a fingerprint scanner. The exact version of the Android OS that it will be shipped is not known yet.

It will be featuring a 20.7 MP rear camera and the selfie camera on the device will be of 8 MP. The older Huawei Ascend Mate 7 came with a massive 4,100 mAh capacity battery. Hence, the Huawei Mate 8 is expected to come packed with an even larger one.
