The GPU on the chip will be Mali based on the 28nm process. The K3V3 chip will be making its debut towards the end of the year.

The Ascend P6 features a 4.7-inch HD in-cell display with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. The phone seems to have a really thin bezel as well as on-screen buttons.

Ever heard of one of those people who just never seem to shut up about something? Shunal is like the nerd equivalent of that guy. Believe us when we say that he can go on talking about games and smartphones for hours on end. We do manage to find some insight in his insane ramblings though, and through his moronic facade, he does seem to know more than he lets on. Sadly enough, it always ends up being about gaming with him. Or stupid, stupid puns.
