Earlier this year Huawei made a splash in the phablet market with huge HuaweiAscend Mate, less than a year on and development on the Mate 2 is in full swing.
The original HuaweiAscend Mate was a interesting and rather larger phablet. It features a 720p display, quad-core processor, 2GB RAM and a nice UI feature which allows the full screen to be shrunk down to a thumb friendly size.
