Huawei goes it alone in the US with a direct-sale, unlocked $299 phone

When you don’t get much backing from U.S. network carriers, getting your phones in customers’ hands
is extremely difficult. That’s the situation China-based Huawei has faced here, even though in its highly
populated home country it is No. 6 in smartphone market share, just behind Apple. Huawei has decided
to take matters into its own hands, opening an online store for U.S. consumers and offering a new
off-contract phone for pre-order.

The new GetHuawei storefront is open for business although you can only purchase one phone

at the moment. But it’s a big one: The $299 Ascend Mate2 has a 6.1-inch display.

I dare say at that size and price they will sell more than one

Sorry, I'm a big fan of Beats and Apple, but can root for the Heat.

It is good to see that even someone who can't root for the Heat CAN root for them if I ask :-)
