Huawei teases Force Touch technology for the Huawei Mate S
Earlier this week the Huawei Mate S was mistakenly listed on Oppomart which revealed all of its specifications and an all-new Force Touch technology. Today, Huawei has began teasing the upcoming Force Touch sensor as ‘Incredible Touch.’
Huawei is racing to release a smartphone with an integrated Force Touch sensor before competitors. Huawei teased two images today revealing the upcoming Force Touch technology. The company will release the Mate S at IFA 2015 according to the teaser pictured above. The saying translates to “Can pressing be different?” This indicates the technology can tell the different between a hard tap and a light tap.
The second teaser shows us an image of a persons finger drawing the letter “C.” It reads, “Now, camera really starts with a “C.” It also notes ‘Incredible Touch’, thus further indicating Force Touch is on its way. Maybe we’ll see a feature that allows users to open apps by simply drawing the first letter of an apps name. Only time will tell.

Motorola, LG, ASUS and Huawei reportedly introducing new Android Wear watches at IFA
It has been a bit quiet around the Android Wear realm. Is Apple stealing all the thunder? The Cupertino giant did sell more smart watches in a day than the Android Wear manufacturers shipped in 2014, collectively. In fact, Strategy Analytics’ studies suggest about 75% of all Q2, 2015 smart watches came from the iPhone maker. The Apple Watch is a force to be reckoned with, and the silence among Android Wear manufacturers may simply signify they’re getting ready for a battle to come.
According to sources familiar with upcoming Android Wear launches, multiple companies are planning to take the stage and introduce their new Android-based wearables at IFA 2015. next week. These sources couldn’t tell us much about the upcoming products, but they did give us a few hints on the general plans.
Motorola is said to launch a successor to the Moto 360, which managed to be among the most popular devices during the first Android Wear wave, thanks to its circular screen and enticing design. Meanwhile, LG is said to be planning a device similar to the LG Watch Urbane LTE. And don’t worry, it seems this time around LG is opting to use Android Wear instead of WebOS.
We have already seen the upcoming Huawei and ASUS Android Wear products, so all we can hope for is to see more details in Berlin. The Huawei Watch (yes, that’s the name) is meant to be a “timeless” piece of technology with a classic design. It’s actually quite gorgeous, but some of you will prefer the ASUS ZenWatch 2, which was unveiled at Computex last June.
Will these new Android Wear devices be able to compete against Apple’s mighty watch? Most of us will side with Google’s partners, but the truth is it’s very hard to go against the Apple Watch – those guys have the numbers! And with Samsung possibly getting rid of Google’s software on the Gear S2 in exchange of their own Tizen platform, things are looking pretty tough.
All we can do is wait and see what happens at IFA. You can be sure we will be there catching all the goodies, so keep it tuned to Android Authority for all your wearable coverage!

Batch of Android Wear smartwatches ready for IFA 2015
Despite quickly taking over the top spot for smartwatches, the Apple Watch has not been the roaring success some may have hoped for. Manufacturers of Android-based smartwatches have already discovered this truth, that the wearables market has not yet caught on fire, as shown by poor results for 2014 sales when only 4.6 million units were shipped. Nevertheless, several companies are preparing to introduce a new wave of smartwatches at the IFA 2015 show next week in Berlin, including ASUS, Huawei, LG and Motorola, with a heavy focus on the use of Android Wear for the operating system.
Google’s Android Wear has been on the market since 2014, but it is really only since the Apple Watch launch that the company had something to benchmark against in terms of delivering a superior user experience. The only other alternatives prior to that were solutions like Samsung’s Tizen that ran on their Gear devices or even the WebOS used by LG on the LG Watch Urbane, although these were very similar to what Android Wear was able to offer.
Strategy Analytics’ Neil Mawston has noted that “Apple Watch has clearly raised the bar for the global smartwatch industry. The ball is now in the court of rivals, like Samsung, to respond.”
Amongst the devices expected to be unveiled or put on greater display next week are the successor to the LG Watch Urbane, the new Huawei smartwatch, the ASUS ZenWatch 2, the next version of the Motorola Moto 360, and the Samsung Gear S2. Other companies will likely have something to offer for the wearables market as well.

Huawei’s Nexus new leaks again, this time showing some metal
Further pictures have emerged of what is claiming to be the as of yet unreleased Huawei Nexus prototype, at least the 5.7-inch version, given Google are expected to release two different sized Nexus devices this year.
The leak comes from @OnLeaks and gives a glimpse of what we could expect to see on such a device, if the 5.7-inch Huawei Nexus is actually a thing. On the rear of the device, you’ll probably instantly notice a fingerprint sensor as well as the elongated camera housing that stretches across the width of the device. There’s also the obligatory Nexus and Huawei branding.
On the front, there’s front-facing speakers, and edge-to-edge display – something that has become accustom in recently released Android flagships. You’ll also notice the metal exterior and frame of the device; again, something many manufacturers have been doing when moving away from plastic materials.
New Nexus devices are inevitable, but whether this is a device that we’ll see as a final release remains to be seen. Stay tuned for more details as they happen.

Exclusive: Honor 7 to launch for under £200
Huawei is set to launch its new affordable Honor 7 smartphone at an event later this week in London and today, a source at the Chinese company has revealed two crucial pieces of information about the price and launch of the new smartphone.
First, the company is expected to announce on Thursday that its Vmall Official Online Store will be launching in the UK and Europe as Huawei explores the possibility of direct consumer sales. Presently, Huawei handsets are sold to consumers through carrier partnerships or through third party retailers while its Honor handsets are available exclusively in Three UK stores or via the Honor online store.

Secondly, Huawei will celebrate the launch with an exclusive limited offer on its new smartphone. Although the official retail price is yet to be confirmed, our source says that the Honor 7 will launch for less than £200 on Vmall, with a limited number of units available for a very short period of time. Once the promotion period runs out, the price is likely to rise by around 20-40 percent, making the launch offer very attractive indeed.
Huawei’s Honor sub-brand has made considerable inroads into the affordable market since its launch in Europe late last year. The Honor 7 aims to continue this and instead of just being another affordable smartphone, it comes with several features that make it stand out, especially given the launch price.
On the rear, the Honor 7 sports a 360° fingerprint sensor that can unlock your phone but also supports gestures to lets you perform several tasks. Above that is a new Sony camera with phase detection auto focus and dual LED flash while the entire handset is made of metal (somewhat a rarity for the affordable market). On the left is a unique new smart key that lets you quickly access favourite apps or toggle certain system services.

Our source at Huawei confirms that we’ll hear more about the handset’s retail price and availability on Thursday but it is expected to launch within days of the launch. Comparing the specs and launch price with other rival devices, it’s likely that Huawei may have a smash hit on its hands.

Huawei Nexus leaks again in hands-on pictures
The upcoming Huawei Nexus has already leaked rather extensively in a series of videos and renders, but now we have our first hands-on pictures of the smartphone, apparently posted by someone working within the organization.
The images match up very closely with the handset render posted online last week, which was created using leaked schematic information for third party case accessories. Just as with the previous leaks, we can again spot the rear mounted fingerprint scanner, which is also rumored for the upcoming LG Nexus. Huawei has used a similar fingerprint scanner placement in its Mate 7 and Ascend 7 smartphones.
The camera module and LED flash are housed in the black bar at the top of the smartphone, while the front design of the Huawei handset hints at a possible dual-speaker setup, which has also been rumored in the past.
Other rumored hardware specifications for the Huawei Nexus suggest that the phone could come with a QHD (2560×1440) resolution 5.7-inch display and a high-end Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 or 820 processor. Probably the former if the handset is to appear this year.
The phone is also expected to arrive with a USB Type-C port, which we can’t see in the pictures, along with a metallic build of some sort, which we can just about make out running along the edge of the phone in the images above. We will have to see how all of these features end up affecting the handset’s retail price.

New Huawei Nexus leak shows off it’s protruding camera hump
We are edging closer to Nexus season, and this year, for the first time, it would appear that Google will be announcing two Nexus handsets made by different manufacturers – LG and Huawei. We’ve seen renders of both rumoured devices in recent weeks, and now, as you can see from the image above, images of the Huawei Nexus – Codename ‘Angler’ have been leaked. The images came courtesy of Google+ user Tiessen Fu, who, it seems, was sent the images by a friend via a Chinese instant messaging service.
Something you can immediately discern from the main image is the pronounced panel (hump) containing the camera sensor and flash. There seems to be a hint of a curve below the hump, giving the impression that it is thicker than the rest of the device. Below that is what looks like a circular fingerprint scanner. The rest of the back panel is fairly plain apart from the Nexus logo. As per the rumours, it also appears to have a metal body and frame, although it could just be a polycarbonate panel with a metallic finish.
On to the front of the alleged Huawei Nexus, and it’s a flat, black display with possibly a couple of front-facing speakers top and bottom. Apart from that, there really isn’t much to talk about.
Finally, there’s an image of the device in a case, which, thanks to the circular cut out, lends weight to the circular spot on the rear panel being a fingerprint scanner. The Huawei Nexus device is also believed to sport a 5.7-inch display, a 3,500mAh battery, as well as the almost infamous Snapdragon 810 processor.
A pinch of salt should be taken with all leaks, but, this one would seem to be pretty legit. The usual caveats apply, in that these may be pictures of an old prototype, or the device could be cancelled altogether between now and the supposed launch date around the end of October. Saying that, these pictures, combined with the renders leaked earlier this month, make a compelling case that this is, in fact, the upcoming Huawei Nexus.

Huawei Nexus gets its first alleged leak of actual physical device
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
While it seems like the LG Nexus is getting all the coverage right now, it looks like it’s now time for the Huawei Nexus to have its turn in the limelight. A number of leaked photos allegedly show the Huawe Nexus in all its physical glory and well – it’s not exactly what we expected. Being a device made by Huawei, we expected it to look a little more like the Huawei Ascend Mate series i.e. with a centred camera, however the device in these photos has a very obvious off-centre camera which sits in a really unusual raised section at the top of the device. Check out all the leaked images below:
With the back and the front of the device showing, we can see some features that we have heard to be on the Huawei Nexus, namely the front facing speakers and the fingerprint scanner on the back of the device. As always with leaks, we can’t confirm the legitimacy of what we see here, but with Google’s announcement of Android Marshmallow, a release of the LG and Huawei Nexus devices can’t be too far away either.

Huawei Mate S listed on Oppomart, reveals full specifications including a Force Touch sensor
The Huawei Mate S is scheduled to release at the IFA 2015 conference in Berlin this September. However, the handset seems to already be available on Oppomart’s online store. The listing includes all of the handset’s specifications and pricing information. Most noticeably, it includes Force Touch technology.
The Huawei Mate S is an upcoming high-end Android smartphone with a large 5.7-inch FHD display, a powerful Kirin 935 octa-core processor, 3GB of RAM, a 20MP rear-facing camera and a crisp 8MP front-facing camera. The handset includes a 4100mAh battery and has Android 5.1 is pre-installed with the company’s Emotion 3.1 running on top of it. Dimensions show a handset measuring 7.9mm thick, weighing in at a hefty 185 grams. One of the features that stood out to us was the integrated Force Touch technology build directly into the handsets screen. We are expecting the iPhone 6s to come with the familiar technology this fall. Could we be looking at a new standard feature for high-end smartphones?
Force Touch could bring a number of new features to the handset’s user experience. It allows the smartphone to tell the difference between a hard tap or a light tap and can be used to carry out a number of different actions. The technology will offer a wide range of features and it will be interesting to see how manufactures incorporate this into their user experience.
The company aims to be one of the first to include Force Touch technology built into their smartphones. The Huawei Mate S seems to do exactly that. According to the listing, the handset will have a $599 initial price tag.
