The industry follower stated that since Huawei</> already had a press event even before the curtains go up for the 2016 CES, the company might be planning to unveil its new flagships at the said pre-CES 2016 event.
Huawei is now trying to strip its reputation of being a mid-range smartphone manufacturer and wants to be known for premium devices, just as Apple is known for the top-of-the-range iPhone. It is also claimed that the battery can be charged quickly; charging it for about 30 minutes only can already give the user a full day’s use.
Huawei Mate 8 has been equipped with a circular finger-print scanner, as seen in other Huawei smartphones.
Huawei suggests that these smartwatches are the first in the world designed specifically for women – though we’re sure Motorola would not agree.
As for photography features, the upcoming models will incorporate rear camera sensors from Sony with an odd model name, the dual Exmor IMX2X6.
Back in November, Huawei announced its next entry in the Mate series – the Mate 8.
The Mate 8 has an attractive metal build and some impressive specs, so there may have been plenty of potential buyers waiting for further news on the phone.
This new color model raises the number of available options to 4, among them the silver, black, white, and now gold model.
The company shipped 108 million smartphones in 2015, despite a sluggish market that challenged more heavyweight players such as Apple and Samsung. One has 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage while the other has 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage.
And, while fingerprint scanning isn’t new for Huawei phones, the company says the new sensor in the Mate 8 improves the identification capabilities by 10 percent and that the speed for fingerprint unlocking is 100 times faster. It will initially be available in 30 countries throughout western Europe, UAE, Mexico, and Australia.
The device won’t be cheap: the version with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage space costs 599 euros (about 647 USA dollars or estimated 420 pounds), while the version with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage space is priced at 699 euros.
