We recently managed to get a hands-on with the Huawei Ascend G6 4G. Offering the same look and feel as the original Huawei Ascend G6 but with 4G LTE connectivity, the smartphone retails for just RM899, finally offering an affordable smartphone for 4G LTE users here in Malaysia. Other notable tech specs include a quad-core processor, 8MP rear camera, 5MP front camera and a 4.5-inch display. We'll be coming out with the full review soon but in the meantime you can check out the hands-on video of the Huawei Ascend G6 4G in this article.

The ASUS MeMo Pad 8 ME181C remains the world's first 64-bit Android tablet and we've been getting quite a few leaks recently as to the performance and tech specs for this tablet. Truth be told we were quite curious how the real life performance of the tablet really is and our Anonymous tipster obliged with some screenshots of Asphalt 8: Airborne and a description of his or her experience with it. According to this tipster, the performance doesn't match with the performance on the benchmarks as the game lags and stutters trying to run. This doesn't match with the performance of tablet having an AnTuTu score of 32000+ so we concluded that the firmware for the tablet still hasn't been optimized completely yet. We have noticed similar performance when trying out the engineering sample for the ASUS ZenFone 5 where the real-life performance does not match with the benchmark performance. There are also camera samples as well which show similar problems as well that you can check out for yourself below:

AnTuTu benchmark screenshots of a mystery device have shown scores breaking the 40000 score limit. The screenshot reveals some tech specs of this mystery device which include a MediaTek MT6595 processor, 3GB of RAM and Android 4.4.2. The model name has been blanked out but it doesn't seem like this is a doctored screenshot, as these have appeared on AnTuTu before. So far, rumours are flying about that it could be the next Xiaomi Mi4 but Xiaomi has typically used Snapdragon processors for their Mi range of smartphones. Neither would it be Huawei because Huawei are currently using their own Kirin 920 range of processors as well. Our guess is that the device could come from Alcatel, Acer, Lenovo or some other China-brand smartphone manufacturer as these manufacturers use MediaTek processors more often than not. No other details were available such as Malaysia release dates or pricing but we'll let you know as soon as we find out.

A device going by the model name of Sony D6653 recently appeared on AnTuTu with a score of 37169, which is quite high, all things considered. Rumours say that this Sony D6653 could be the Sony Xperia Z3, as Sony itself has been quoted as saying that they will come out with a new flagship smartphone every 6 months. The timing therefore fits almost perfectly as the Sony Xperia Z2 was introduced in February 2014. This would make August the 6th month after the Sony Xperia Z2 was introduced. While it is still unknown if the Sony D6653 is actually the Sony Xperia Z3, it stands to reason that the next such high-powered smartphone from Sony would be the Sony Xperia Z3. Rumoured tech specs for the Sony D6653 includes Android 4.4.4 and possibly a quad-core Snapdragon 801 MSM8974AC processor. No Malaysia release dates or pricing details were available but if these rumours are true, we could see the Sony Xperia Z3 reach us in September 2014.

Introduced earlier this year, the Huawei Talkband B1 is the company's first smart wearable device in the market. Offering a 2-in-1 combo in terms of functionality, the smartband is a combination smartwatch fitness tracker and bluetooth headset all in one. It does this by popping out of the wristband and then sticking into your ear like any other bluetooth headset. We managed to get a hands-on with the device but here are the tech specs for now:
- 1.4 inch flexible OLED
- 247.5 / 221.5 x 19.3 x 14.6mm | 26.2g (9.4g headset + 16.8g wristband)
- Supports Bluetooth 3.0, NFC fast pairing
- Features dual-mic noise reduction, 7 hours talk time 2 weeks stand-by
- Compatible with Huawei MediaPad X1 / M1 / Ascend P7 / P6 / P6s / Mate / Mate2 / Y530 / Y330 / Y300 / G730 / G610 / Y600 / G6 / B199 / Honor 3C / Honor 3X / SAMSUNG Galaxy S5/S4/S3/Note 3 LTE/Note 2, MEIZU MX3
- 90 mAh battery
- IP57 water and dust resistance

When you say flagship smartphone, the characteristics most people will think about is super thin with premium features and an equally premium price. While the Huawei Ascend P7 is certainly super thin at just 6.5mm and packs in a whole bunch of premium flagship-level features, it certainly isn't priced as one. It is also one of the lightest smartphones we've ever reviewed. Is it excellent enough though? Read our full review of the Huawei Ascend P7 smartphone below and find out.

The Nokia Lumia 930 was recently previewed here in Malaysia by Microsoft Devices and TechNave.com were invited. We managed to get some hands-on time with the Nokia Lumia 930 and it certainly feels premium. The 20.7MP camera captures some very nice images and is both fast and reliable. Targeting those premium users wanting to convert over to a Windows Phone 8.1 experience, the Nokia Lumia 930 feels solidly built. According to Steve Chan, Product Marketing Manager, Microsoft Devices, part of the reason for the polycarbonate backside is that it is more comfortable and scratch-proof compared to a metal back casing. While we'll have to agree with that, it doesn't give the same premium look that some other metal chassis smartphones have. In all, we were quite impressed with the new Nokia Lumia 930, but do check out the hands-on pictures and demo video in this article for yourself.
