The rumor mill’s churning away today, spreading word of a possible “high-end” Android smartphone from Chinese manufacturer Huawei. According to V3, Huawei’s smartphone (which, sadly, hasn’t been caught on camera just yet) will run Android 2.3 with a “custom 3D interface” on top. V3 also claims that the smartphone will look a bit like the HTC Desire S with a 3.7-inch touchscreen.

Whispers around the rumor mill pin this one’s internal name as the “Huawei Vision” — but, as always, that’s totally subject to change before launch. According to V3, we should see the device in the second half of the year.
