So before the Huawei Ascend Mate lands in the Philippines, this 6.1-inch smartphone from Kingcom could still claim the crown as the biggest one yet. The Kingcom Padphone 61 takes its cue from its namesake, the Asus Padfone.

While the Asus Padfone is a smartphone that transforms into a tablet, the Kingcom Padphone 61 is a tablet-sized smartphone.

The device has been around for some time (mid-January if I can remember it right) and has been getting exposure even on a newspaper ad.

Kingcom Padphone 61 specs:
6.0″ FWVGA display @ 854×480 pixels
Mediatek MTK 6577 1.0GHz dual-core
PowerVR SGX531 GPU
