Yesterday, mobile phone maker Huawei announced the upcoming availability of its Huawei Ascend P1 LTE smartphone in the UK, exclusively on the network of EE.

With this device, the company promises fast 4G connectivity for all users, along with a great overall mobile experience.

Following the initial availability at EE in the UK, the new smartphone is expected to land on shelves in other countries soon afterwards, so that more users could benefit from the great LTE capabilities it has to offer.

According to Huawei, Ascend P1 LTE is yet another proof of the company’s commitment to 4G connectivity, which has already materialized in products such as Huawei B593 (first LTE TDD wireless broadband router in the world), and Huawei E398 (the world's first triple-mode LTE modem).

“LTE is the future of mobile communications, and faster data networks will become a key area of differentiation for consumers when choosing their mobile devices,” said Kevin Ho, president of the handset product line of Huawei Device.

“Huawei is committed to LTE innovation throughout the entire communications infrastructure from the ground to the cloud. The availability of the HUAWEI Ascend P1 LTE is just one more way in which we are putting great technology into the hands of more people globally.”

Huawei Ascend P1 LTE comes with support for the largest range of frequency bands on networks of carriers in Europe, Latin America, North America, Asia-Pacific.

The smartphone hits shelves with a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED qHD display protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 2, as well as with a powerful 1.5 GHz dual-core processor inside.

The handset also sports an 8-megapixel photo snapper on the back, with dual LED flash and HD video recording, as well as 1GB RAM inside, and a 4GB ROM.

The phone’s specs list also includes 2,000mAh Li-Polymer battery, along with the usual set of features and connectivity capabilities. Huawei Ascend P1 LTE runs under Google’s Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system.
