Thanks to @evleaks, we now have several press photos of the Huawei P6. This is that phone that likely be announced next month in London at the company’s “Beautiful” event. It’s obviously been heavily inspired by Apple’s iPhone 4, but that’s not actually a bad thing since the iPhone 4 was one of the most beautiful mobile phones to ever hit the market.

As for the guts of the device, there’s not a lot to share. Knowing Huawei, and how previous devices in the P series have been more about design than high end specs, I wouldn’t be surprised if this thing had a 720p screen and a dual core processor. Still, I could be wrong, and I hope I am because this is one of the first phones I’ve seen from the Chinese handset maker that made me go WOW.

The real question is how long until the P6 comes to other countries? The P1 was notoriously late, despite being nothing more than a clone of the Samsung Galaxy. Will we have to wait until Q4 to buy this thing?

Again, not a lot is known, but we’ll find out on June 18th.
