Slender, beautiful and stunningly finished
The Huawei Ascend P6 is far more than the thinnest smartphone you’ve ever seen. Although it is slender (just 6.18mm thick), the Ascend P6 is beautiful too – with Huawei’s unique ‘Double C’ design frame. Whilst the edges of the P6 are wrapped in a stunning polished aluminium alloy frame, the back is a tactile brushed aluminium alloy with an anti scratch coating. The combined effect is a smartphone that both fits and feels fabulous in your hand. The Ascend P6 is built to be beautiful and durable. The 4.7” HD screen is cased in aluminium Alloy casing, and an anti scratch coating on the rear, the Ascend P6 is as strong and resilient to everyday life as it is beautiful.
8MP innovative main camera & Unique 5MP front facing camera
The P6 has an 8MP main camera with flash that’s designed to optimise your pictures - in all sorts of circumstances. The large 2.0 aperture will capture bright clear photos in dim and dusky conditions, whilst the SONY EXMOR RS Sensor will allow you to focus just a few centimetres from objects where you want to capture real details. The P6 also has features like auto scene recognition, auto light filling and target tracking which will ensure your everyday pictures are always great ... and if you’re looking to shoot video – you can shoot in 1080p HD. If you’re an avid social networker, the 5MP front camera on the Ascend P6 is just what you’ve been waiting for. You’ll not just be able to take great pictures of yourself wherever you are, you’ll finally be able to judge your image before you’ve even taken them. With its wider angled lens, the Ascend P6 will be able to get your family, friends or the place you’re in, into the picture with you.
A huge battery – optimised to last
The Ascend P6 packs a huge 2,000 mAh battery, which is designed to last and last. Huawei is a world leader in the development of mobile phone networks and mobile devices. We’ve used our expertise to optimise the way the P6 works with the networks, making batteries last as much as 30% longer. Ascend P6 has a ‘Power Manager’ that will tell you how long you have left, as well as suggested options that you can select to optimise whatever life you have left before charging.
Built to surf and entertain
Being slim doesn’t need to mean compromising on the good things. The Ascend P6 is built with the latest tech to give you a great surfing and entertainment experience. The P6 packs a 4.7” HD screen, a lightning fast 1.5Ghz Quad core processor and a huge 2,000 mAh battery. So if you’re looking to enjoy catch up TV like BBC iPlayer, or the millions of movies, books and tunes from Google Play, you have the power, sound, screen and all important power that you need.

I have been using this phone for a couple of weeks now and haven't been more impressed by a phone. I upgraded from an iPhone 4S and the difference is massive. For starters, I can get two full days battery life out of the phone - which is unbelievable to me after having put up with sometimes having to charge my iPhone throughout the day to keep it going. I love the Android skin as it does away with the app draw and makes everything much simpler to navigate than other android phones i've played on. Its actually more similar to the iPhone than other android phones.
The 8 megapixel camera isn't as high as other phones but the quality can be really amazing. it struggles a little in low light photos though. Overall i'm very impressed, especially with the build quality which is even better than my old iphone. I was very surprised this phone comes from a maker i've never heard of!!

This is a very good piece of kit for a good price, I've never owned a smartphone before so realistically cannot comment about its standing amongst it rivals suffice to say that if this was the lowest denominator then the rest must be really special.
So from my lowly opinion.
It feels great in your hand.
It does or hasnt overheated.
It takes good pics, not the best but on the screen they look brill.
Ive played the game loaded on it and it works fine.
It loads pages quickly and effectively.
The battery seems to last for about 2 Days without using it but this seems to be getting better, not sure if this is good or not.
Low price.
Good Looking.
Seems to integrate easily with my WiFi.
Im Happy with it.

Ok I didn't get it off Amazon, got it off another retailer for �240, a fair bit cheaper than amazon. So here goes then. This phone is a very good mid-higher range phone. Its not up to my S4 in multitasking but it blows it away in looks. At just over 6mm thick, or should I say thin, this phone really looks the business. Friends often remark on this device & are amazed by its looks, although lose interest when you say its made by Huawei. Their comments are usually that they would not buy because its chinese. This often comes from people with the iPhone, although I do remind them that their over hyped & vastly overpriced iPhone is actually made in China. They usually look blank at this piont.
The P6 is one of the best ear piece speakers of any phone I have ever owned & I own a few & have owned many. I point this out because it stood out to me when making a call. Only the Sony xperia P I once owned ever made me realise how good the call quality was & now the Huawei P6. The camera is an 8meg at the back but also has a 5meg at the front, a feature my daughter really likes for self portraits.
The item has a quality feel being mainly alloy & to be honest I have had to put on the free gel case you get with the phone because its so slim I find it hard to pick up.
The comments regarding overheating are to be dismissed, as said I have owned dozens of smart phones & they all heat up when being tasked. It's obvious a device is going to heat when the battery is being pushed. Also I saw a comment if the battery is built in then when the battery becomes faulty the phone is lost. No they are not! take to qualified vendors who can replace all batteries even in phones with sealed batteries. I might add the battery is not a common fault with phones, its only the devices misuse.

I notice that it has gone up in price considerably since I ordered this from AMAZON and I am not surprised. It does everything a smart phone should do at half the price (was nearer a third) of its designer rivals and does it well. Its battery life is better than most and its build quality is excellent (all metal) although I would recommend using a good quality case with it simply because it is so slim.

Beautiful phone. I would say this phone is as nice as an iPhone from a build perspective. Battery life is good too on standby. Problem with the phone is that the graphics support is poor and in many graphic intensive apps weird artefacts show. Also, (for me the biggest issue) it runs very very hot when you try to use more taxing applications. In fact, even though it has a quad core CPU it is based on a slightly older instruction set than the latest phones. It's performance is inferior to a dual core phone I owned yesteryear and when it runs hot the battery dives rapidly.
Real shame, as the build quality and aesthetics are second to none.

I've now had this phone for almost a month and I've found nohing to complain about whatsoever. I've been a bit of an android fanboy for the last 3 smart phones I've had (this, HTC sensation XE, HTC wildfire). This is the first one I've had that came with a skin over flat android. I don't much like the Samsung touchwiz UI so I was unsure whether or not I would like Huawei's UI but its safe to say that I do. I think that the UI is a cross between android and iOS. There are clear similarities to both (the app layout for example) but the parts that make each operation system bad seem to have been ignored. If you decide you don't like the UI you can always install nova launcher straight from the app store which will make your phone look exactly like flat android (I have this on mybsamsung galaxy note 8 tablet and I love it). The screen is extremely crisp and you will have to zoom very far out before text starts to get blurry.
The only negatives I can pick up on are that the phone can overheat occasionally but I have never had any problems with that other than a hot phone and the screen picks up finger prints. I recently bought a matte screen protector whic stops finger prints from being picked up, makes the screen feel much nicer and rescues light reflection, enabling screen viewing in bright sunlight. I strongly reccomend that you buy a pack of these when you buy the phone

It's beautiful
I fell in love with this phone the minute i opened the box. The only downside is the method of opening your SD card and memory card slots.
