There should be a Youtube video. This is a mirror because the Chinese don't have access to YouTube in China.

Found it

So this device is being sold? Huawei should release the kernel source! Looks nice btw.

Sent from my S7

No clue. Huawei is having their press right now (5pm Barcelona time)

Engadget said it is $300: Huawei S7 tablet first hands-on -- Engadget

I think they meant 300 euros (400USD). Not sure.

The battery looks bigger...

They doubled the battery

Phandroid just bashed it. But at least they speak English:

Huawei is bad at marketing...

OMG release date! Capacitive screen, double the battery, hdmi out, slim, plus all the features from original S7. $300 without a contract?!? This device is pure win.

And more details on S7 Pro! How exciting..

I didn't hear any bashing - the reviewers were just a little underwhelmed by 2.2. Interesting - specs here show Android 3.0 - ¡¾»ªÎªIDEOS S7 SlimÔõôÑù¡¿»ªÎªIDEOS S7 SlimºÃÂð|PChomeµçÄÔÖ®¼Ò

The bashing is in the article Phandroid wrote: Huawei Ideos S7 Slim Won’t Hold a Candle to Honeycomb Tablets [MWC][Hands-On] | Android Phone Fans

PCHome knows nothing

Darn, the pro doesn't have a kickstand. That's one of the main reasons I chose the S7. For that matter, does the slim version have a kick stand? The guy in the vid said that metal piece doesn't open, but it seems that's what would be the kickstand.

 

[JFer]

wow! good news!! i hope 2.2 soon for our S7

 

[brachiopod]

It is interesting, and I might be in the market when it is released, however I assume that past performance is indicative of future and I won't be buying another Huawei product until I see how they support purchasers of this one.

See Slashgear actually likes this thing: Huawei IDEOS S7 Slim hands-on; X3, HiLink & Mobile WiFi official - SlashGear

And the $300 price point reiterated. But for April....

I just got my S7 like a few weeks ago

Oh well


If we do not get 2.2 at least by April, Huawei needs to get stoned or something...

 

[RoyEP3]

APRIL! that's just around the corner. I hope that's a US-included release date. I think I might return mine while it's still under the 14 day return period.

 

[KitN]

They got rid of the kickstand? Nooooooo!
