Leaked Huawei Mate 8 Impresses

A full metal unibody seems to be the norm when it comes to smartphone design these days, and frankly, we are not surprised. After all, a metal unibody is easy on the eyes, not to mention pleasant to the touch as well. Huawei, the third largest smartphone vendor in the world, has its upcoming device in the works – the Huawei Mate 8 that looks set to impress, especially with the latest leak concerning the smartphone. Check out the kind of leaked hardware specifications of the upcoming Huawei Mate 8 right after the jump.

For starters, the Huawei Mate 8 is said to arrive with a generous 6” 1440p display alongside Huawei’s very own custom Kirin 950 chipset. It claims to be able to offer an unprecedented amount of power courtesy of a 16nm FinFET production process alongside a big.LITTLE architecture. There will be a quartet of Cortex-A72 cores that have been clocked at 2.4GHz, while the additional four Cortex-A53 ones will be powered at 2.0GHz, making this quite a beast at benchmarks.

Apart from that, the graphical side of things will be handled by the ARM Mali-T880 chipset, where it will be accompanied by an i7 coprocessor and a Tensilica Hi-Fi 4 independent audio chip. Not only that, we should be looking at a minimum of 3GB of RAM, alongside 32GB or 64GB internal memory options.
