Huawei brings its first WP8 phone the Ascend W1 to Walmart, pairs it with 30-day unlimited plan

Huawei announced today a raid on the low-end WP8 market in the US, bringing its first phone with Microsoft's newest mobile OS version to Walmart. As a reminder, the Ascend W1 sports a 4" LCD screen with 480x800 pixels, a dual-core 1.2 GHz Snapdragon, 5 MP camera able to do 720p video, 2 GB of internal storage, and microSD card slot for its expansion.

The Ascend W1 will be sold in Walmart, where the Nokia Lumia 520 will be keeping it a low-key company when it gets restocked there, and it will come with the enigmatic 30-day unlimited contract, the providing carrier on which is shrouded in mystery, as is the price still.
