Huawei, the Chinese handset maker that seems to announce a new flagship smartphone every other month, is allegedly going to unveil a device in April that pretty much has the exact same specifications as the Galaxy S4 from Samsung. There’s a 4.9 inch 1080p display, 13 megapixel camera, Huawei’s own K3V3 chip, which has four ARM Cortex A15 processors and an ARM Mali-T604 GPU, and to top it all off, there’s supposed to be a 2,600 mAh battery. All that power in a body that’s going to be 6.3 mm thick.

Does this device exist? Probably. In a lab somewhere. Will it ever land on store shelves? Let’s not get too excited. Remember now, Huawei announced the Ascend D2 at CES in January. That thing also has 1080p display, 13 megapixel camera, and you get the idea.

Where exactly is the D2? No one knows.

Something tells me the same thing will happen to this thing.
