everybody this is jessica's all court from peanut here at CES 2013 in Las Vegas this is the huawei ascend w1 a very freshly announced windows phone 8 device it is in fact Huawei's first windows phone 8 device so this is something special there seems to be a trend in Windows Phone to have bright colors and the ascend w1 which will actually in the u.s. be called just the huawei w1 there is this bright cyan color here which very closely resembles the Nokia Lumia 900 and 920 colors also comes in this red color here white and black now for the specs the phone has a poor inch LCD display it runs off of a 1.2 a gigahertz Qualcomm processor so it may be a little bit slower than some of the other ones we've seen them windows phone but I think you're still going to find pretty snappy performance there's a 5 megapixel camera on the back with flash and there is a front facing camera as well there is of course the physical camera button here and it does capture video behind the back cover there is a microSD card slot for external storage as well the phone is really nicely designed it does look very similar to some of the other ones on the market but for those people who do like the bold shape and the squared off corners I think you're really going to like the look of the device I certainly do now there's no pricing or availability information yet in fact there's no us carrier announcement yet either we do know that the phone is coming to China and to Russia in January followed by other countries in the Middle East Europe and the US so stay tuned for more information I'm jessica's all court for Cena you can catch all of our CES news SD network com
