Android Pie’s rollout has been slow, but as the third month of 2019 kicks off, we’re seeing more and more devices get the latest version of Android. To close out this week, Samsung’s Galaxy Note 9 is finally getting Android Pie on T-Mobile, while the Huawei Mate 10 Pro is getting the update too.
HDR is one of the most exciting technologies to come to entertainment in a while, and smartphones makers haven’t been shy about bringing it to their devices. Netflix has slowly been expanding support for these devices since last year, and this week, a few more are being added to the list.
Huawei’s struggles in the United States continue today. CNET reports that Best Buy has stopped ordering new smartphones from the company and will stop selling existing stock over the coming weeks…
Huawei’s Mate 10 Pro may be facing an uphill battle in the US market, but that doesn’t stop it from being a fantastic, capable smartphone. One thing the company has been highlighting on the Mate 10 Pro is its AI capabilities, and it put them to the test in a new experiment involving a driverless car.
The heads of the FBI, CIA, NSA and three other US intelligence agencies have warned Americans not to buy Huawei smartphones, or indeed any other Huawei products and services. All expressed concerns that close links to the Chinese government meant that there was a risk of malicious access and data theft.
They gave the warning in a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing on Capitol Hill …
There are two phones that really stick out in my mind from last year. The Google Pixel because of its superb performance, excellent software, and incredible camera. The other is the Huawei Mate 9, a phone that caught me by surprise and easily became one of my favorite phones ever. Now, there are a lot more phones on the market that are worth your attention, so Huawei’s latest, the Mate 10 Pro, has some stiffer competition. Is it worth your hard-earned dollar, though? Let’s take a look.
Updated with Huawei statement below.
Huawei doesn’t have the most squeaky-clean reputation when it comes to its marketing and promotion tactics, but it looks like the company is stooping to particularly disappointing lows with its Mate 10 Pro. In a private Facebook group, the company is asking for positive Best Buy reviews in exchange for a chance to be one of a few “beta testers” of the phone.
Despite losing its US carrier partnerships, Huawei went ahead and announced that it would be bringing the Mate 10 Pro to the states unlocked for $799. Now that the phone is available for pre-order, Amazon is offering a deal that is too good to pass up (if you were planning on buying the handset)…
Huawei has been attempting to break into the US for a while now, and Verizon has been its primary target. Now that its deal with AT&T has been scrapped, it seems that Verizon is under similar pressure to cut ties with the Chinese OEM.
For several months now, Huawei has been rumored to enter the U.S. market in a significant way thanks to a partnership with AT&T to sell the Mate 10 Pro. However, the day before Huawei’s CES press conference, several outlets are reporting that AT&T has backed away from the deal.
Huawei has been working hard for the past few years to bring its devices, and specifically its flagships, to the US market. It’s made ground with sub-brand Honor and the “X” series, and last year’s Mate 9 managed to turn some heads. However, 2018 is going to mark a big year for the Chinese brand, so before we enter the new year, let’s take a closer look at what Huawei has in store for the States.
Huawei has been on a mission for the past several years to bring its devices to the US market, and specifically to bring them to the mainstream market. Last year’s Mate 9 and the past couple of Honor devices have laid the groundwork, but for 2018, Huawei is going after flagships with its Mate 10 Pro, landing this time on an actual carrier.
Over the past several weeks, rumors have suggested that Huawei is working on a launch with U.S. carriers. Today, the company confirmed that it will begin carrier sales in 2018, with more details coming at CES in January.
Huawei has been trying to penetrate the US market for a while now and despite its attempts with last year’s Mate 9, the company hasn’t really had a hit Stateside yet. That hasn’t stopped it from trying, though, as Huawei is apparently in the process of bringing its Mate 10 Pro to the US on two carriers.
Huawei’s efforts to join the US market the past couple of years haven’t really yielded much success, but not for a lack of trying. The Mate 9 especially holds a soft spot in my phone collection. Recently I’ve been playing with the Mate 10 Pro and I think the company has another winner and now, it seems that earlier reports of a US debut on carriers have been confirmed.
Huawei’s Mate 9 was easily one of my favorite smartphones over the past year, and today Huawei has announced its successor — the Mate 10 series. Consisting of two primary models, these new phones bring a lot to the table, so let’s dig in.
