Huawei's 6.1-inch 1080p Ascend Mate flaunted by exec, leaves little surprise for CES

[ ](http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/23/huawei-ascend-mate-tease/)

How big is too big? Well, that's clearly not [Huawei's](http://www.engadget.com/tag/huawei) concern, as it's about to introduce a 6.1-inch 1080p Android phone at CES. But even two weeks (before the company's CES press day) is too much for the impatient [Richard Yu](http://engadget.com/tag/richardyu), who went ahead and whipped out his beastly device in front of fans at a Huawei store in Guangzhou yesterday -- there's a video of the intimate moment after the break. According to earlier rumors, the Ascend Mate will feature a 1.8GHz [HiSilicon](http://www.engadget.com/tag/hisilicon/) K3V3 quad-core chip, along with a massive 4,000mAh battery, 9.9mm thickness and a price tag of just under ¥3,000 (about $480). Yu wrote on Sina Weibo saying the final specs may differ slightly, but the 43-year-old executive did add that the 361ppi display is of [LTPS](http://www.engadget.com/tag/ltps/) (low temperature polysilicon) nature. As with the [Ascend W1 and the Ascend D2](http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/18/huawei-ascend-w1-d2-ces/), all will be unveiled at CES.
