It's been a long time coming (we first got wind of a Huawei Android phone at this years Mobile World Congress) but finally Huawei has confirmed its long-awaited Android phone in the form of the U8230. It looks very similar to the mockup ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) they had on display at MWC but with a bit of extra bling thanks to some silver edging.

Specs wise there's not much to go on. According to the press release ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) it will sport a 3.5 inch touchscreen, allow users to switch between full and half QWERTY keyboards and has a 1500 mAh which they claim has "the longest battery capacity of any Android-powered handsets currently available." True, but then it doesn't take much to beat the G1's measly 1150 mAh or even the Magic's 1340 mAh. But hang on, doesn't Samsung's Galaxy ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) have a 1500 mAh battery as well? Let's hope that Huawei's Android offering has a little more to brag about than increased battery life.
