Huawei has dominated the smartphone market scene in recent year and 2015 looks set to follow suit with the arrival of the P8. Unlike the Samsung Galaxy S6 - a smartphone that's set for March 2015 debut - Huawei Ascend P8 will launch on April 15 in London.

The P8 is expected to be a premium handset, and will likely to run on Android 5.0 Lollipop. Aside from the possibility of a 5.2-inch FHD screen, the recent rumours suggest that we could possibly see two versions of the Ascend P8.

According to a tweet sent out by tech journalist Antonio Monaco, Huawei P8 is expected to have a "Lite"model. In terms of screen size, the compact version could feature a 720 x 1280 resolution display, a less powerful processor and 2GB of RAM. It is generally considered that Huawei will opt for a 13-megapixel camera sensor to power up the Ascend P8 "Lite".

As usual, one should always take all rumours with a pinch of salt until there is an official announcement made from a reliable source to confirm such rumours.

Over the past 12 months or so, Huawei has grown exponentially from zero to hero. The Chinese company has a huge range of low-end Android phones that it sells in its native market. Huawei stole Samsung's low-end business, when it announced that it sold 75 million smartphones in 2014.
