\u201cSelfies are great but with most phones capable of only a small frame, the context of the picture is ruined. This is why we see a lot of selfies that lack scenery. The Ascend P7 aims to bring good photography to selfies or groufies,\u201d said Charles Wu, Consumer Business group head of Huawei Technologies Philippines.<\/p>\n

Equipped with a \u201cVoice Photo\u201d function, the Ascend P7 allows users to simply tell the phone to take the picture. Furthermore, this feature takes photos that are accompanied by 10-second audio clips for users to upload photos with special audio expressions on a variety of social media platforms.<\/p>\n
