The Huawei Mate 10 Pro is the flagship phone many of you probably never heard of. If you have, it's likely you have only heard of it through mainstream news reports alongside the company's relationship with the U.S. government.

Amazing looking design; Premium build and quality; Great display; Smooth and clean software; Flagship performer; Amazing battery life; Great price; Fast fingerprint sensor

The only real complaint is the camera could be better

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.

Beautiful designed, with 6GB RAM, Huawei AI, 4000mAh batttery and arguably the best camera on a smartphone in 2017, this device makes a compelling case for itself as Android...

Huawei's flagship Mate 10 Pro is bursting with features. A great screen, very good battery life and widespread use of AI make it a pleasure to use, while IP67 protection is welcome. It's not without drawbacks though.

No 3.5mm headset jack (USB-C headset and 3.5mm adapter provided; No MicroSD card slot; Too large for some hands/pockets; Shiny; slippery chassis design

The Huawei Mate 10 Pro is an easy phone to love for many, many reasons. That battery life! That lovely OLED screen! That super-fast performance! That camera! In fact there’s really very little wrong with it at all, beyond the fact that it doesn’t really do anything that hasn’t already been done by another top Android this year. Yes, there’s the distinctive whiff of familiarity here, like someone’s grabbed all of their favourite bits from the year’s best phones and smashed them all together into a kind of Frankenstein’s Monster Phone. But that doesn’t really bother me and nor should it concern you. If you want a big, powerful Android phone with a lovely camera and superb battery life - and most people do - then the Mate 10 Pro should be near the top of your list.

Superb two-day battery life; AI-enhanced speed and power; Excellent camera; Rich OLED display;

Connectivity issues in testing; Slippy back; Some camera modes look unnatural;

The Huawei Honor 10 is a speedy Android phone with a notch. Check out our review.

While it doesn't have all the Galaxy Note 8's features, the Mate 10 Pro earns its place in the high-end big-screen pack.

The Mate 10 Pro is sleek and solid, very powerful and takes great photos in both colour and black and white; It's also water-resistant and battery life is superb.

You can't expand the storage and there's no headphone jack; Its software extras are gimmicky.

Earlier this year, a groundbreaking new smartphone was announced. One that promised to combine an industry-leading camera, glossy design and artificial intelligence tech to change the way you interact with your smartphone in a real, meaningful way and help a global tech brand crack-and-tap the mainstream in the same way that Samsung and Apple do.

If you’re not swayed by Samsung’s return to form, Apple’s ultra-expensive iPhone X or Google’s funky Pixel 2, then the Huawei Mate 10 Pro is a pretty solid alternative.

Outstanding battery life; Exceptional camera;

Pretty conventional flagship form-factor; Lacks wireless charging;

Apple and Google may have machine learning, but Huawei has artificial intelligence. The Mate 10 Pro is the first phone with a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU), letting it run AI computations with greater efficiency than a CPU or GPU. Processing smarts aside, it also has a sleek glass body, an edge-to-edge display, and solid dual camera sensors, along with all the other premium features you'd expect on a high-end Android phone. At $649.99 it's a bit more affordable than the Samsung Galaxy S9+, but quite a bit more costly than Huawei's own View 10 and only available online and unlocked, making it a hard sell in the US market. Design, Features, and Display Glass is making a comeback. Unlike the aluminum Mate 9, the Mate 10 Pro ( at Amazon) features an all-glass body that curves along the back for a comfortable grip. There's a distinct reflective stripe that runs horizontally across the top of the phone where the camera is located. Color options include midnight blue, mocha bro...
