Huawei Chairman taunts Apple with the thin bezels of the Ascend Mate7

by 67 comments

Marketing is perhaps best left to the PR department but Huawei Chairman and CEO of the consumer division Yu Chengdong (aka Richard Yu) took to his Weibo account to tout his company’s products over the newly announced Apple iPhone 6 Plus.

Of course the Huawei Ascend Mate7 was used for the comparison, the 6″ flagship phablet that was announced at IFA.

As Mr. Yu points out the iPhone 6 Plus is actually taller than the Ascend Mate7 – just by a millimeter but it has a screen that’s half an inch smaller. That’s thanks to the impressively slim bezels that Huawei managed to craft for its new phablet.

Of course, what the CEO didn’t mention is that the Ascend Mate7 is 3mm wider and almost a millimeter thicker than the iPhone 6 Plus. His point still stands though, Apple could have done something about the bezels.

Huawei isn’t the first company to mock Apple over increasing the size of their products, others already took their shots at Cupertino.
