Huawei Ascend D2 in white poses for the camera

You've heard of the Huawei Ascend D2, haven't you? In case it's your first encounter with this Chinese dragon of a phone, what we are dealing with is a potential competitor to today's high-end Android handsets. Its front is graced by a 5-inch 1080p display and inside it hums a quad-core processor of Huawei's own make. 

Now, although the Huawei Ascend D2 has been official for almost two months, we haven't really seen a whole lot of photos of it. Thankfully, four images exposing the handset's design have appeared on the web, and we're now sharing them for your viewing pleasure. To no surprise, the Ascend D2 has a plasticky appearance, but we'll accept it the way it is as long as its build quality is adequate. We also see a 3.5-millimeter headphone jack and a loudspeaker at the bottom, while the lock button and what looks like a SIM card tray have been placed on top.

The Huawei Ascend D2 will be on display at CES 2013, so it won't be long until we get some clearer images of it. The retail price of the smartphone is expected to be around the $500 mark.
