Huawei has unveiled the Ascend P7, a slim Android smartphone with LTE support, at an event in Paris on Wednesday.

The 5-inch device has a 1080p display, a 1.8GHz quad-core processor, 8GB of RAM, 16GB of storage and a 13-megapixel camera on the back, coupled with an 8-megapixel one on the front.

With a 0.26-inch-thick body that weighs only 4.37 ounces, it's one of the slimmest and lightest LTE smartphones on the market. Other features of note are the microSD card slot, a 2500 mAh battery and 1080p video recording.

The device will be coming in May to most of Europe, China, as well as some Middle East and Asia markets. It will be available in black and white, for a suggested retail price of €449 ($625).
