Huawei Mate 9 and Mate 9 Pro Can Make Good Alternatives to Samsung Galaxy Note 7

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is officially dead now. I’ve been to the ceremony as well. Well wait! Sorry for those who have bought Galaxy Note 7 devices without expecting about it’s battery issue. But don’t worry, Samsung is planning to giveaway Galaxy S8 in a free upgrade/exchange to the S7s that were given as Note 7’s compensation.

Huawei is speeding up their phone market now as the leader like Samsung got punched its face to earth with the utter failure of Note 7. Their new Honor 8 resembles the design of an iPhone and Xperia phones; specs and camera are mesmerizing. Now a latest leak tells us about the leak of their next Note series, Huawei Mate 9 and Mate 9 Pro.

Please Note: Samsung Galaxy S7 is a great phone in terms of performance and camera. It even beats iPhone 7’s latest camera module with better OIS and light intake capabilities. If there was no battery issue, Galaxy Note 7 would have been ruling the premium phones market.

What is Huawei Mate 9 and Mate 9 Pro?

Remember Huawei Mate 8? The Mate 9 is its successor. With better upgrades and some changes to the design, Huawei Mate 9 and Mate 9 Pro is reportedly be releasing on November 3rd of 2016.

VentureBeat reporter leaks an image of Mate 9 that shows the featured dual-lens Leica Summarit H 1:2.2/27 ASPH camera with laser auto-focus system.



Code named Long Island and Manhattan, these two Huawei premium handsets will sport a 5.9 inch qHD display, 64-bit Octa-Core Kirin 960 Processor, 256GB internal storage and 6GB of RAM.

Another leak reveals the availability of Mate 9 colors which are known to be Amber Grey, Amber Gold, Rose Gold, Ceramic White, Moonlight Silver, Sky Grey, Mocha Gold, Champagne Gold and Enamel Gloss Black.

Those are really a lot of versions out there more than any phone can be.

The Long Island codenamed phone would be the pro version I suppose and it would sport a dual curved screen just like Samsung S7 Edge and Samsung Note 7 had. Dual curved screen would be the next adaption to all smartphones after dual camera lenses in 2017. Even Xiaomi has released Mi Note 2 with dual curved display.



Another rumored feature of Mate 9 and Mate 9 Pro is the 2K Google Daydream VR. The rumor also says that the Long Island version (Pro version) is going to be released only in China and the Manhattan globally.

Good Alternative to Samsung Galaxy Note 7

Those who fascinate the performance and camera of Samsung Galaxy Note 7 can turn around and see Huawei’s Mate 9 and Mate 9 Pro as a good alternative. If the only thing that is pulling you back from handling the Note 7 is the fear of battery explosion, Huawei Mate 9 and Pro can assure you the hope. However the original performances of Mate 9 and Mate 9 Pro have to be tested hands on after its release.

Even Samsung have not imagined the battery explosion problems when they announced the device on the grand stage. Let’s wait till Mate 9 is released into the market and see if it can make good alternative to Galaxy Note 7 (including the battery issues).
