•To ensure longer smartphone battery life, Huawei developed its Quick Power Control (QPC) and Automated Discontinuous Reception (ADRX) power-saving technology which lowers battery consumption during standby mode by over 20% by assessing the need for data transmission and adjusting accordingly based on the network status. 

•To reduce charging time, Huawei’s fast battery charging technology enables Huawei products to be charged up to 30% faster than other smartphones. 

•Huawei’s ‘swift sharing’ functionality enables pictures, videos and other files to be uploaded two- to three-times faster than other smartphones in a Wi-Fi environment. 

•To optimize screen visibility in all lighting conditions, Huawei’s smart brightness technology calculates the next light transition point in a bright lighting environment and maintains a gradient brightness variation control. 

•To increase audio capabilities, the Huawei super hands-free allows users to be heard within a radius of 1.5 meters, transforming smartphones into conversation sharing portals. 

•To enhance audio recording, Huawei’s stereo recording provides high-fidelity sound recording so you never again have fuzzy, unclear audio in your videos.

Within the Middle East, Huawei has captured increasing consumer attention following the local introduction of it’s leading Ascend smartphone line in 2012, which spans four different product series—including a Youth, Gold, Platinum and Diamond series—which each offer a unique technology package at competitive price points.
