CES: Huawei announces Ascend P1 and P1 S – world’s thinnest smartphone and loaded with ICS

Huawei has unveiled two super slim Android smartphones – the Ascend P1 and P1 S. The Ascend P1is sleek than almost all droids at 7.68 mm and the Ascend P1 S even defeats its own companion with its amazing thickness of 6.68 mm.

While those measures certainly sound awesome but the phones are quite a beast under their hood, both new Huawei smartphones have 4.3″ Super AMOLED display resolutions of qHD (540 x 960), with Gorilla Glass on top. The Ascend P1 and Ascend P1 S are powered by the same TI OMAP 4460 chipset with a dual-core ARM Cortex A9 1.5 GHz processor and a PowerVR SGX540 graphics chip and run the latest Android 4.0 ICS. The Ascend P1/P1 S comes with 1 gig of RAM and 4 gigs of storage memory. On the back there are 8 MP sharpshooters with Backside illuminated sensors for better low-light performance, dual-LED flashes, HDR effects and 1080p video capture. The duo also packs 1.3 MP front-facing cameras with 720p video capabilities. Both of these handsets feature quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE support plus pentaband UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA, Wi-Fi b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0 connectivity.

The smartphones will come in metallic black, ceramic white, cherry-blossom pink and the duo will hit Europe, Asia-Pacific, North America, Australia, Middle East and China starting Q2 of this year.
