The Maimang 6, expected to launch as the Mate 10 Lite outside China, has been announced, with its quad camera formation and 18:9 display making for a novel package from Huawei.
It's all Huawei at the moment, as the company announced its first 18:9 phone in the form of the Maimang 6. The Maimang 6, particular to the Chinese market, identifies as an upper mid-range offering from the Chinese giant.
The Maimang 6 offers a number of improvements over its predecessor, the Maimang 5. It sports a 5.9-inch FHD display, with an 18:9 aspect ratio that effectively gives it the feel of a 5.5-inch one. While the Maimang 5 housed a Snapdragon 625, the 6 opts for the in-house Kirin 659, which outperforms the Snapdragon 625, albeit at the cost of lower graphics processing power and battery performance. It ships with 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of storage, a dual rear camera setup (16 MP + 2 MP), dual selfie shooters (13 MP + 2MP), and a 3340 mAh battery.
The Maimang 6 has been touted to launch in western markets in the guise of the Mate 10 Lite. It comes in Obsidian Black, Streamer Gold, and Aurora Blue—along with a price tag that translates to US$365.

I like tech, simple as. Half the time, you can catch me writing snarky sales copy. The rest of the time, I'm either keeping readers abreast with the latest happenings in the mobile tech world or watching football. I worked as both a journo and freelance content writer for a couple of years before joining the Notebookcheck team in 2017. Feel free to shoot me some questions on Twitter or Reddit if it so tickles thine fancy.
