Huawei is just teasing Yugatech. That price is for the 3G version only.

Huawei phones, even entry-level ones, tend to have excellent cameras. Looking forward to this one if ever. Although I wonder how it stacks up to CM Flare X/Firefly Intense Desire’s Sony IMX214. Volume might be an issue though as I’ve had a very old Huawei Ascend Y300 3 years ago and its volume was terrible, no idea if this has changed in their newer lineup of entry-level phones.

If they set the price at around P6500, this will be a potential hit.

Well even if they set it to P7000 with its 2.0ghz clock speed, it will be a very huge hit…,and I think others will agree with me…, ^_^
