Is the mate 10 pro good enough.

[Aljean Thein]

They did say even after 18 months, I think it was, the phone will perform very well and will run just as fast.

Even though Huawei makes me angry I'll most likely eventually purchase the Mate 10 Pro if it's offered in the states unlocked.
If the Huawei hype is true I don't see a better phone based on my preferences.

Very high tech device from what I see in the preliminary news about it.
I must note that the Mate 9 I have now has suffered absolutely no slow downs at all to date.
Huawei has worked some kind of magic with the newer Mate phones evidently.

That's awesome to hear! Let's hope that Huawei doesn't acquiesce to att and not make an unlocked one for the states

That's really great that they could do that.

 

[dpham00]

Pricing it reasonably is probably out of the window. I'm just hoping it's no more than $800.

I don't care about msrp... Just how much it is with promotions. You can get $700 off a Samsung phone now if you qualify.

 

[Aljean Thein]

Yah, if they can actually accomplish this, it'll be a huge deal for future purchases

That's way too much for huawei, I think. I can see saving some money w/ freebies.

It definitely would be

So they want to compete with Samsung but cheap out? Lol.

Yup. They can work out on the a better deals later on

 

[dpham00]

Yup. They can work out on the a better deals later on

Then I will consider the mate 10 pro later on

Geez...Samsung makes a lot of phones.
Most if not all carriers have all levels of their products.
The brand is all over reseller sites.
Samsung is the first name you see in all the stores.
If someone who was clueless about smartphones went to buy something they'd probably come home with a Galaxy.

I'm hoping phones loaded with technology like the Mate 10 from Huawei start breathing down Samsungs neck.

That is true. Known name. Most people buy brands they are familiar with. And you can buy a galaxy at any price point. So if you have $200...can't buy an apple but can buy a galaxy phone.

Samsung indeed has a phone first all price points. But just cause theyre Samsung phones doesn't mean they're all great. Cheaper the phone, weaker specs.

 

[Guytronic]

Samsung owns the globe.

 

[Aljean Thein]

Theyre not big in every market. Like in China

Yeah, guess that's what Huawei is going after.

 

[dpham00]

Well they are the number one smartphone manufacturer worldwide and have been for some time

 

[dpham00]

In the usa, apple dominates Samsung by a wide margin.

 

[Aljean Thein]

Hopefully they offer better phones for the price.

Oh yah, Apple got the states on lockdown
