Ascend Mate 7 – Smarter Style, Performance and Functionality

The 6-inch FHD Ascend Mate 7 features a slimmer 7.9mm body for increased comfort, a more powerful octa-core chipset for superior performance and a longer-lasting 4100 mAh battery for extensive usage on-the-go. It saves up to 50 percent of the battery by automatically using smaller A7 cores to power standard apps that consumer use at least 80 percent of the time. 

The smartphone also showcases the fastest LTE category 6 connectivity available with download speeds of up to 300 Mbps, this means you can now download an HD movie to the device in less than 30 seconds. 

It has a 13MP rear-facing camera to capture better party photos in low lighting with Sony’s 4th generation BSI sensor and f/2.0 aperture. In addition, the 5MP front-facing camera adopts the industry-leading 5P non-spherical lens for higher definition and less image distortion and allows for panoramic selfies to be taken. 

With new single-touch fingerprint technology and EMUI 3.0, Ascend Mate7 dials up the mobile experience to make it easier for users to live life to the fullest. ARM TrustZone also stores encrypted data of the fingerprint within the chipset for better protection by SecureOS, and prevents direct access by third-parties. The Ascend Mate7 will be available in three distinct chic colors, moonlight silver, obsidian black and amber gold.
