While Huawei is expected to unveil the P10 at next month's MWC, two other phones, including an Honor 9 suspect, probably paid Tenaa recent visits.

With all the fuss about betas and super software updates from Google, Samsung, HTC and Lenovo (among others), we haven’t really covered the Android Nougat path for Huawei’s hardware.
The Huawei Mate 9 already features the smarter and cleaner EMUI 5.0 on top of Android 7.0, though, so its’ only a matter of time that the P9, Mate 8 and other entries from Honor get their fixings. But how much time?
Apparently, the software roadmap puts us closer than you might think. According to a thread on the Chinese Huawei Club forums, the P9 and Mate 8 will get their official Nougat updates today. The Honor 8 and V8 are going through their first full beta builds right now and so is the Huawei P9 Plus. The mid-range Huawei Nova is currently shuttling its first betas out as well. We presume more phones will be tacked onto that list as time goes on.
Keep in mind that these dates are not global, so we’ll probably have to bide our time elsewhere.

Forget one or two flagship phones.

Think Huawei is mad to aim for Apple’s second spot in global smartphone sales in the not-so-distant future, and subsequently, Samsung’s crown by 2021? Perhaps, but if the Chinese company keeps growing at the alarming pace of late, the sky will truly become the limit for its ambitions.Recently, the OEM broadcasted a seemingly random box-office achievement which however goes to prove its sales competence in more than one area. The mid-end, somewhat low-key

Following last year’s success of the Nexus 6P, Huawei’s a brand a lot more smartphone shoppers have started paying attention to.

Dual-camera smartphones are no longer quite the novelty they once were, pairing multiple sensors to capture additional image data. That data can be used to produce higher-res pics, allow for some fancy editing tricks, or just snap shots with enhanced fidelity. But while we’ve seen this sort of thing before, manufacturers have been refining their designs to build dual-camera systems that are more substance than gimmick, and for the past several weeks now we’ve been looking ...
