Just last week, the first mention of specifications for Huawei's rumored Ascend P2 smartphone were released.

According to that report, the Ascend P2 will boast a quad-core 1.8GHz Hisilicon K3V2 processor, a 5-inch screen with 1280 x 720 resolution, and run Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

This was of course after Huawei neglected to mention such a phone during CES 2013, where it also happened to bring a small cadre of more than capable phones for display.

Despite all the focus the Ascend W1 and Ascend Mate earned just a short while ago, attention has quickly shifted to the mysterious P2.

Further fanning of the flames came on Thursday, when frequent phone photo leaker @evleaks posted the first supposed image of the Ascend P2.

The real deal?

The image posted is reportedly an official press shot of the Ascend P2, which Huawei was apparently hoping to keep under wraps until Mobile World Congress next month.

Though the smartphone does look rather sharp, if not a little boring with the standard white rear plate, there's no telling just how accurate this image could be.

Huawei hasn't even hinted at the fact that the P2 exists, let alone announced that it may be in the pipeline, so seeing it peak out more than a month before its supposed release makes us a bit wary.

That said, @evleaks does have a history of spoiling Huawei's fun, and could have done so here again with this leaked shot.

With one month to go until MWC, we certainly won't have long to wait to find out whether or not this early look at the Ascend P2 was accurate.
