Not long after the China launch of the 6.1-inch Huawei  Ascend Mate earlier today, the notorious @evleaks tweeted out the above  two press shots of an Ascend G700, as well as referring to an old tweet  from the often reliable @paopao0128 (of <em>Blog of Mobile</em> fame) who suggested the G700 will feature Android 4.2, a quad-core MediaTek MT6589 SoC (as opposed to the quad-core Huawei HiSilicon K3V2 chip on the Ascend Mate and the Ascend D2), an "HD" LCD (our money's on 720p only, like the leaked G710) and both WCDMA and TD-SCDMA flavors.<br />  Another fresh G700 leak we found shows a hands-on photo obtained from  Sina Weibo (which has since been deleted, but it's also right after the  break), and it also mentions that the phone will have a 5-inch display  plus 2GB of RAM. There's no info on pricing, but the careless leakster  on Weibo reminded us that the budget-minded G series devices never go  over ¥2,000 or about $320 unsubsidized. To put that into perspective,  the quad-core, 5-inch full-HD D2 is currently available for almost twice  as many yuans. Well, it shouldn't be long before Chinese consumers get  yet another 5-inch device to stuff their pockets.<br />   <div class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Huawei's Ascend G700 leaked in press shots, may be Ascend D2's cheaper cousin" data-src-height="588" data-src-width="440" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/03/huawei-ascend-g700-test.jpg" /></div></div></div>

Neo N003 may deliver a 1080p smartphone for $145, but don't expect miracles

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> <img alt="Neo N003 may deliver a 1080p smartphone for $145, we wouldn't expect miracles" data-src-height="450" data-src-width="570" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/03/neo-n003-render.jpg" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">Neo is known for building smartphones with price tags so low that a Nexus 4 would seem like a luxury. If <em>GizChina</em>'s  contact (and convenient product render) is accurate, that  bang-for-the-buck ratio may grow especially wide in the near future. The  N003 will supposedly include a 5-inch, 1080p display and a quad-core  processor for a target price of ¥899 ($145) in China for a basic Youth  version, and ¥1,499 ($241) for a Premium model -- both big deals for the  size, we'd reckon. However, there's little doubt that the N003 at those  prices would be slower than a truly high-end phone like the HTC Butterfly, especially considering its pedigree. The N002 uses a MediaTek chip and just 4GB of storage, and earlier rumors have the N003 using MediaTek's frugal MT6589  alongside either 8GB or 32GB of space for its respective trim levels.  Neo hasn't confirmed the details as of yet, let alone set expectations.  Any alignment between the claims and reality could nonetheless see the  N003 punching well above its weight, even if most Americans would never  feel the impact.</div></div>

The company's <span>Xie  Qingjiang says that plans are underway to build a tablet-specific  processor that would ship in the third quarter of the year. While other  details are scarce, it's safe to say the chip will take advantage of all  the extra breathing room for more performance. The real questions  surround just who will use the new creation: there's no guarantee that  Acer will find a fit for the design inside of its future 8- and 10-inch budget slates</span>, for example. When MediaTek is seemingly making generational leaps in a matter of months, though, we suspect that there won't be a shortage of customers.</a><br />  	   	  	 </div></div>
