Huawei Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro - Hands On Review

Huawei Unveils Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro: A New Era in Android Technology

Huawei has officially unveiled its latest flagship devices, the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro. The two devices are designed to provide a seamless user experience with advanced features and sleek designs.

One of the most notable differences between the two devices is their availability in the US market. While both devices will be available globally, only the Mate 10 Pro will be sold in the United States. This is likely due to the fact that Huawei has faced significant challenges in gaining approval from regulatory bodies in the US.

Despite this, both devices feature a similar edge-to-edge design with small differences. The Mate 10 Pro lacks a headphone jack, whereas the Mate 10 still includes one. Additionally, the fingerprint sensor on the Mate 10 Pro is located on the rear of the device, while it's situated on the front of the Mate 10. Furthermore, the Mate 10 Pro has an IP67 water-resistant rating, similar to the iPhone 8, whereas the other device doesn't.

In terms of design, both devices look great and are expected to appeal to users who value aesthetics. The reflective design on the back of the devices is particularly noteworthy, adding a touch of elegance to their overall appearance. Both devices also feature high-quality AMOLED screens, with the Mate 10 Pro boasting an unusual 16:9 aspect ratio that allows for multiple columns to be displayed in landscape mode.

Both devices are powered by the Kirin 970 processor and come equipped with a neural processing unit (NPU) that enables faster processing of artificially intelligent queries. The Mate 10 features 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, and a microSD card slot, while the Mate 10 Pro boasts 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and no microSD card slot.

The camera setup on both devices is identical, with a 20-megapixel monochrome and 12-megapixel RGB camera featuring a world-first 1.6 aperture that allows for better low-light performance. Both devices also come equipped with massive 4000mAh batteries that should provide at least two days of battery life.

One of the standout features of both devices is their software, which runs on EMUI 8 based on Android 8.0 Oreo. The MPU chips in these devices enable faster processing of certain functions, such as the built-in Microsoft Translator app, which provides super-fast image translation and can also identify what's being photographed to help tune images to presets.

Another interesting feature is the "desktop mode" that triggers when the Mate 10 is connected to a monitor. This allows users to mirror their phone screen or switch to desktop mode, providing a seamless experience without disrupting their workflow. Additionally, the device supports split-screen mode and can even be used as a separate computer in certain situations.

The Mate 10 Pro, on the other hand, offers an enhanced feature set that sets it apart from its smaller counterpart. The Pro model also features a more refined design with a narrower profile and taller stature than the Mate 10. This design choice makes the device feel more premium and sophisticated.

In conclusion, Huawei's latest flagship devices offer a range of innovative features and sleek designs that are sure to appeal to users looking for a high-end Android experience. While only the Mate 10 Pro will be available in the US market, both devices share many similarities that make them stand out from the competition.
