Huawei Ascend G6 4G: Hello Voice-Activated Selfies, Good Bye Awkward Poses

Imagine if you could just tell your camera to take the photo. With the Ascend G6 4G that’s exactly what you can do. No more awkward poses and no more struggling to get into the frame. Then upload your snaps over superfast category 4 LTE/4G and be first to tell the story. All for SRP$329.

Perfect to share your photos with the world — like selfies with double the resolution of many devices, aided by an 88 degree front camera lens for panoramic shots to get everyone in the picture. Huawei’s Selfie Preview Window and 10-level auto face enhancement make it easy to always show off your best side.

There’s still not too many 4G LTE Cat4-capable smartphones available in Australia, so the Ascend G6 is a new one to look out for. Category 4 promises up to 150Mbps downloads / 50Mbps uploads on supported carrier networks.

The Ascend G6 packs a best-in-class 5-megapixel selfie camera with wide-angle lens all in a stylish design. At 115g with battery, the G6 is on par with the iPhone 5s, despite its larger 4.5-inch screen.

Meanwhile, the G6’s built-in Near Field Networking (NFC) chip opens up a whole world of tap-and-go and file-transfer possibilities. And DLNA support makes it easy to stream photos, movies and music to your TV.
