One of the last ones of its kind. With their XXL-sized smartphone Mate 10, the Chinese manufacturer Huawei bucks the current trend towards displays with a 2:1-aspect ratio. How does the high-end phablet fare and is an import worth it?

Huawei Mate 10 vs. Mate 10 Pro: Which Mate should you get?
Source: Hardware Zone English Archive.org version
Having said that, it’s rather unfortunate that Huawei is making consumers choose one feature over another. Instead of coming up with multiple variants, Huawei should’ve concentrated their efforts to craft the perfect smartphone – one that would overthrow the competition in one fell swoop, and one that embodies all the great features of both the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro.

Huawei Mate 10 review: Makes you wonder why you pay more for a flagship
Source: Soycincau English Archive.org version
Honestly, not a whole lot. The Mate 10 is as much of a flagship as any of its competitors out there and in places where it lacks, the phone makes up for in others. Makes you wonder why anyone would pay more for a flagship.

Huawei has traditionally used its Mate series phones as the flagships of the range, and 2017 is no exception, with not one, but two devices: the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro. The Mate 10 – the subject of this review – continues the design language of last years P10/P10 Plus, with rounded edges and a piano black finish, in contrast to the Mate 9‘s beveled edges and brushed metal facade.

The Mate 10 is currently available for around $680 through Amazon, which places it a few hundred dollars below competitors like the Pixel 2 XL, LG V30, and Samsung Galaxy Note 8. I feel this is a fair price considering the difference in quality; phones like the Pixel 2 XL and Galaxy Note 8 in particular are better, but they’re also more expensive.

Huawei Mate 10 review - Ultimate feature-filled flagship with an AI, 2K display and 3.5mm audio jack
Source: Tech Nave English Archive.org version
Apart from the heaty 4K video recording we have next to no issues with any feature on the Mate 10, just that the AI driven NPU features could stand to have a bit more polish, especially the Easy Projection, so we're hoping Huawei continue to polish these features. As it is, there is no other phone on the market with these features asides from the Mate 10 Pro or Mate 10 Porsche Design. Currently priced at RM2399 (yeah, yeah, the RRP or Recommended Retail price is RM2699) the closest contender would be the OnePlus 5T but it not only lacks many features that the Mate 10 has but is also an 18:9 aspect ratio display device so if you're in the market for such a device, then the Huawei Mate 10 should definitely be at the top of your consideration list.

With prices of top-tier flagships from rival companies ballooning past 40K, it’s refreshing to see Huawei’s newest and greatest priced below that. With an SRP of just Php 32,990, the Huawei Mate 10 is a great alternative to the offers of its competitors without compromising build quality, performance, image quality and battery life.

The Mate 10 doesn’t have wireless charging, which is unlikely to be a deal breaker for most readers. On the plus side the long battery life means less emphasis on charging anyway. It also charges quickly, the battery goes to half a full charge in a little under 30 minutes.

Huawei Mate 10 Unboxing, Quick Review: 2017’s Affordable Flagship?
Source: Unbox English Archive.org version
We’ve already given you our take on Huawei’s top-tier flagship, the Mate 10 Pro a few weeks ago. We’ve been thoroughly impressed with what the manufacturer has been able to achieve with their current flagship, so much so that we’re wholeheartedly recommending it to anyone looking to buy a high-end phablet that’s not made by a Korean company. But before we forget, the Mate 10 Pro has a more affordable brother that eschews fancy aspect ratios for something more traditional. With a Php 32,990 price point and much of the same hardware that made the Mate 10 Pro great, the regular Mate 10 is on the road to become one of the most prolific flagships of the year.

The Huawei Mate 10 is a the most mainstream smartphone the company has ever produced. It retains its slick looks while switching to the current trend of a glass front and back. It retains its massive battery while adding an even more efficient chipset and AI optimizations. It takes what used to be a full-featured but complicated camera and makes it incredibly reliable for pick-up-and-shoot photographers.

Huawei Mate 10 Hands On: For the Core Mate User

To top it off, Huawei is pricing the Mate 10 at the very same price point as its predecessor at RM2,699; that’s pretty good price-to-performance ratio. Of course, it’s not as sleek-looking nor does it carry an IP67 rating like the Mate 10 Pro, but if you value the Mate 10’s feature set (microSD card slot, 3.5mm headphone jack, among others), it’s really quite a compelling flagship smartphone.

Huawei is sticking with a similar dual camera setup to those we've seen on its P10 already. A 12-megapixel sensor shoots in color, while a 20-megapixel sensor shoots exclusively in black and white. Shots from both sensors looked great on the P10 and with the Mate 10's wider aperture (now f/1.6 on both lenses, which lets in more light) and handful of software tweaks, I'm looking forward to seeing what it can do.

Hands-on & More With Huawei's Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro: Kirin 970 Meets Artificial Intelligence
Source: AnandTech English Archive.org version
On a final thought, last week at GTC Europe, NVIDIA's keynote mentioned an understated yet interesting feature where using AI could help improve it. Ray tracing, to provide realistic scene interpretation over polygon modeling, is usually a very computationally intensive task, however the benefit is an extreme payoff in visual fidelity. What NVIDIA showed was AI assisted ray-tracing: predicting the colors of nearby pixels based on the information already computed and then updating as more computation was performed. While true ray-tracing for interactive video (and video games) might still be a far-away wish, AI-assisted ray tracing looked like an obvious way to accelerate the problem. Could this be something applied to smartphones? If there is dedicated AI hardware, such as the NPU, it could be a good fit to enable better user experiences.

Comment

Model: The Huawei Mate 10 smartphone was launched in October 2017. Huawei has delivered its latest salvo in the battle against other mainstream manufacturers and the results are very compelling. The first impression is important and the Huawei Mate 10 knows it. It is a fine looking handset, no two ways about it. A massive screen with near-zero bezels, a smart glass design, and some attractive paint jobs all contribute to making the Mate 10 so appealing. After generations of metal-clad Mates, Huawei changed its mind and opted for glass instead. The Mate 10 now comes in a dual-glass body, held together by a brushed metal frame. The screen bezels have all but disappeared and the fingerprint scanner has been moved over to the front, doing double-duty as a Home or a multi-function key, depending on your preferences. The screen sits behind a Gorilla Glass ending on a subtle curve. The rear Gorilla Glass got all the premium treatment. It has a 4-axis curve meaning all sides are curved towards the frame. The effect is stunning to look at and quite practical too. The Huawei Mate 10 brings a long overdue update and the 5.9-inch IPS LCD screen now boasts 1440p resolution and 499 PPI. There is also HDR10 support, but no Dolby Vision. The Huawei Mate 10's screen uses a PenTile RGBW matrix with an extra white subpixel. This allows the screen to reach higher brightness levels while using less power than the traditional QuadHD LCD panels. The screen of the Mate 10 has two modes, Normal and Vivid. Some units have the Normal option chosen by default, while others come with the Vivid mode pre-selected. Those two settings offer different levels of brightness and color accuracy.

The Kirin 970 chip premiered at IFA a couple of months ago, but this is the first implementation seen. It is manufactured using a high-end 10 nm process by Huawei's in-house HiSilicon division and promises faster performance and great battery-efficiency. The highlight of the new Kirin 970 is not the 25 % faster CPU or the 4x more powerful GPU, but the brand-new Neural-network processor unit (NPU), which provides hardware acceleration to machine learning tasks. These tasks include image recognition, voice recognition, and natural language processing. Huawei has already trained the chip by showing it millions of images, voice samples, and text, so now it is able to recognize new images, voice and data much faster. The Huawei Mate 10 has a new dual-camera by Huawei and Leica. The setup is an enhanced version of the second generation of the Mate 9. The image sensors are identical, but the apertures are wider. To put this in numbers, the Mate 10 features a 12 MP color and a 20 MP monochrome imager sitting behind f/1.6 lenses each. The camera relies on the same 4-way focusing technologies as before. A user gets laser AF, depth detection, contrast-detect AF, and phase detect AF. While the Mate 10 boasts some good specs, it is still hard to see why one should pay more for it. For its price, the P10 Plus does quite good. However, there are other smartphones at around the same price with better specs such as the Samsung Galaxy S8 and OnePlus 5.
