competition and come power-packed with multimedia features and strong hardware to cater to
the consumers looking at value for money with the benefit of good specifications. With
this new range, Huawei phones boast of improved camera features like dual LED flash,
patented power saving technology for extended battery life and unmatched features at this

launch of Huawei's global premium range.

    "After the global success in the first half of 2015 with our smartphones sales
crossing 50 million units, making us global number 3, we are excited to launch our 'Huawei
Brand' series in India. The good news is that the new series will be available through the
retail route where our customers can experience the products first hand. Keeping in mind
