Chinese electronics giant Huawei took aim Tuesday at the premium segment dominated by Apple, unveiling a new large-screen smartphone along with a tablet and luxury smartwatch. As it unveiled its latest flagship smartphone called the Mate 8 at the Consumer Electronics Show, Huawei said it sees a path to becoming the number two global vendor in the sector - a spot now held by US-based Apple.
With a six-inch display, it still has a smaller overall footprint than similar smartphones, said Kevin Ho, who heads Huawei's handset operations.
