Huawei will once again be at Mobile World Congress and according to the invite to their press event, they released last night on Social Media they intend to ‘amaze the world again’.

While the invite itself gives time, date and location of the press event, they have followed up with a video teaser of what people can expect from the launch – basically a phone and tablet, with emphasis on multimedia, large battery, support for next-gen LTE and yet again an emphasis on a high quality ‘Selfie’ camera on the front. The video itself uses a clone of the iOS based digital assistant Siri and quite frankly it’s terrible, but if you want to check it out yourself :
The event goes live at 15:30CET in Barcelona, Spain with local Australian times listed below. Huawei usually doesn’t stream their events but will live tweet them through their @HuaweiDevice Twitter account, so you can see what they have to offer. We’ll be following up with Huawei Australia for full press info as soon as it’s available and will definitely be chasing a video stream if available this time around.
