Check out our full review of the Huawei Ascend Mate after the break. Size does matter and there will be some segment of the consumer market that will be inclined to get an over-sized phone like the Ascend Mate. The Ascend Mate feels very solid, and aside from it's gigantic size, it's a fairly well-built device. Perhaps the most compelling feature of the Ascend Mate is its extra-large display. If you're not too comfortable with two-handed operations when navigating and typing into the virtual keyboard, the Ascend Mate offers single-handed option for the keyboard so you can still use it comfortable with either hand. The quad-core Huawei K3V2 processors runs at 1.5GHz on each core and is the same one they used in their first-generation smartphones from last year, like the Ascend D Quad ZL (which we reviewed here). Our standard benchmarks show the Ascend Mate perform somewhere in the middle of the quad-core pack with Quadrant scores of 5,343 and Antutu benchmarks score of 15,695. While it may not be very comfortable or ergonomic to use the Ascend Mate with one hand when making calls, call quality is exceptionally good.
