I would like just comment on web layout and not on the article. Putting the commercial as a background and having no margins around the text (Opera, Opera Next, IE11) makes it almost unreadable and definitely very tiring. I'm happy to look at the pictures but all your efford to write something just went to waste. I don't mind commercials but please leave left and right side of the site clean with uniform background.
I am guilty of using ABP and ghostify as well, but by doing that, I am taking away revenue from one of the best tech reviewers in the world. I wish there was a way of enjoying good content without obtrusive advertising. Those sorts of adds rely on misclicking as far as I'm concerned, because under no circumstances will I click on something that is up in my face.
Huawei has the MicroSD slot with the same sort of pin-eject cover as the SIM slot. It's probably easier for them to set it up this way if they ever want to produce a dual SIM version.
It's actually hilarious how similar it is to the iPhone edge. However I salute them for blatantly ripping off any "style" IP because it's just ridiculous that they handed those patents out in the first place.
The greatest trick Apple ever pulled was to convince the world that copying someone else's good ideas was a "bad thing".
Yes this shows the successful and attractive iPhone design had a strong influence. No, that is not illegal, a violation of patents, or a bad thing, as Apple might want you to believe. If taking someone else's good ideas and building upon them was illegal we wouldn't have cars, or toasters, or electricity to the home. This is quite distinct from copyright or patent violation which would involve copying a very specific aspect or technique. I'm sure Apple finds it very convenient that the general public seem to be hazy on what, for example, a design patent can protect.
KIRIN 910T includes LTE baseband on-die is well. Using 28 nm HPM is also good news. Interesting is the die size on the SoC. Great attention is paid to the cooling of the phone, using a special gel and aluminum alloy.
"The HiSilicon KIRIN 910T is a quad-core Cortex A9 design with Mali-450 GPU built on a 28nm HPM process. The Cortex A9s are clocked at up to 1.8GHz, which is quite high for a A9 design. "
A 1.8GHz Cortex-A9 is not high clocked, especially not on 28nm HPM. Tegra 4i does 2.3GHz on the same process.
I have/ had the predecessor P6, and I learnded that the electronic compass doesn't work on all those P6 devices. I need it for pedestrian-navigation. Now I wonder if it works on the P7. Plus: is the GPS very mediocre again?

As far as I know we were not running any campaigns today. So any further details you might have would be useful.Aisalem - Thursday, May 8, 2014 - link
Hi Ryan, have a look how the left side of the text blending with the background commercial from EE (I'm in UK)http://tinypic.com/r/123uvyp/8

is it me or do the pics look like it has dual SIM card slots?Brandon Chester - Wednesday, May 7, 2014 - link

One of them might be MicroSDHC slot.Jackattak - Wednesday, May 7, 2014 - link
Wow. The Chinese really have zero regard for IP. Down to the corners, this thing is a blatant ripoff of the iPhone 5.willis936 - Wednesday, May 7, 2014 - link

Design patents are very specific, this isn't close enough to violate them. Yes, there are similarities but a lot of them are generic things.MercuryStar - Monday, September 15, 2014 - link

Nvidia markets the Tegra 4i as a 2.3Ghz chip, but the only phones announced so-far featuring it have it clocked at 1.7Ghz or 2Ghz.Jaheira - Thursday, May 29, 2014 - link
