Huawei Ascend P2 poses for the camera with a 4.5 inch FHD screen

Earlier this month at CES, Huawei showed off the Huawei Ascend D2 with a 5 inch 1080p screen and a 441ppi pixel density. The device has just launched in China.  HTC, which started the recent craze of 441ppi devices with the HTC DROID DNA/Butterfly is rumored to take it to the next level with the HTC M7 which, according to the buzz, will shoehorn FHD resolution onto a 4.7 inch screen. That works out to a wicked 468ppi pixel density. But if the latest leak from @evleaks is right, Chinese manufacturer Huawei will be going beyond the next HTC flagship model.

According to the speculation, the Huawei Ascend P2 will be displayed at MWC and will feature an FHD resolution on a 4.5 inch screen. We don't have the ppi computed, but with the panel coming in .2 inches smaller than the one on the HTC M7, the pixel density will be higher than the 468ppi on that device. This recent focus on pixel density is taking Android well above the 326ppi Retina display on the Apple iPhone 5.

The rest of the specs include a quad-core 1.8GHz processor built in-house, 2GB of RAM, a 13MP camera and a hefty 3000mAh battery. Android 4.2 should be installed out of the box. The use of an in-house chip should keep the price manageable even as Huawei sets a new standard for Pixel Density. The question is whether the Huawei Ascend P2 will be sent to the U.S.
