If the 170g Huawei Ascend D2 is a bit too imposing for your hands, then you may be curious to know of the Ascend P2, a previously teased smartphone that was just leaked by @evleaks. While there’s no further info to go along with this image, it does show off a 13MP camera on the back of the phone, which makes us wonder how Huawei even managed to pack that into the sub-6.45mm-thick metallic body. A little digging around also showed that the company’s Consumer BG CEO Richard Yu was seen fondling the P2 during a meeting back in December — you can recognize the phone in the photo after the break. . . . → Read More: Huawei Ascend P2 product shot leaked, confirms 13MP camera in slim body

That’s not it, however, since the project also lists plans for social networking apps like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, as well as an account and file manager, document viewer, RSS reader and even a terminal — the latter, naturally, should make Android rooters feel right at home. . . . → Read More: Canonical outs project to help Ubuntu smartphones launch with over 10 core apps
