It is expected to be powered by an octa-core processor made by Huawei themselves – HiSilicon K3V3. Unlike the Vivo XPlay 3S or the yet to be announced Oppo Find 7 which come with a 5.5inch 2K display, the Huawei D series smartphone will come with a 5inch display and thus, will have a pixel density of 587ppi which is insane.
