We expect to see the Huawei Mate 10/Mate 10 Pro flagship model on October 16, during a special event held by the Chinese company in Munich, Germany. During the event Huawei plans to emphasize on the powerful Kirin 970 chipset that will be powering the device, boasting impressive AI capabilities.
However a couple of minutes ago, the rumored price of the device in Europe has appeared seemingly and – trust me- it’s not good. Well known leakster Roland Quandt mentioned earlier that:
Huawei Mate 10 Pro is showing up at retailers in eastern EU for 930-940 Euro. Ouch.

Gizchina News of the week
Pricing looks the same as if Apple had decided it if you ask me and if Huawei wants to ask for such amount of money (approximately 1099$), then they’d better deliver! As you may already know, the Chinese company is expected to launch at least two (or three) different Mate 10 versions – they may be called Mate 10 and Mate 10 Lite, or Mate 10 Pro and Mate 10.
Rumors so far insist that the larger (better equipped) model will boast a 5.99-inch 1,440×2,880 touchscreen with 18:9 aspect ratio, along with the Kirin 970 SoC inside and 6GB of RAM with 64 or 128GB of built-in storage.
There will be a 12 MP + 20 MP dual camera setup on the rear (with Leica branding of course),along with an 8 MP selfie camera on the front. The Mate 10 Pro model is expected to be 7.5mm thick, packing an impressive 4,000 mAh battery, along with IP68 water and dust resistance.
What do you think of its – rumored- price? Buying or not?
Give it 2 moths and the price will be down 200 euros really
Ouch, Mi Mix 2 sounds 2x feasible right now.
Pricing in Europe is always higher than the rest of the world due to higher VAT and EU license fees.
Australia is pretty nasty on price too , if it’s anything like the other high end flagship names here , we will need to bring our own saw to give them an arm and a leg 🙁 .
For the big brand high end flagships , not much change out of 1.5 k .
Getting ridiculous .
Australia surprised me actually with how expensive everything was the first time I visited there. Living and traveling throughout Asia, I wasn’t prepared for that lol.
It wasn’t always like that mate, but government policy in recent decades has just kept pushing prices up and up here .
One wonders where it will end .
‘Ouch’ is about right, yeah.
Bet there will be another Porsche Design version doing 1799.
Well, if rumours are true and htc U11 plus is coming with same bezelles screen 6 inch and same specs for 200 less, htc and Huawei will change position in the end of 2017. Huawei is getting crazy since 6p with prices. Really.
