  • It's a good phone, but my problem is with the storage. Storage is 32GB,available storage is 30GB according to the information in my phone. When I try to download or update an app am told not enough space. What is the problem or is information about the gadget a lye?

  • Hello all My huawei mate s not connecting with wifi of 5 ghz.any body have idea about this problem.please help me.

  • The computer may have issues as may The phone itself. You should contact a pro. As for what I can say is that You should look under your PC Devices and see if there's something wrong there!

  • That's the always case with Huawei worst company in term of Software update. They are not even fixing bugs in thier software. I had G750 and their Contact app has problem but Huawei never fixes that issue. So my advice to all people don't buy any device from this worst company.

  • I have had that kind of dilemma over that devices and I choose Mate S, I choose wisely, great phone, but I didn't know that this phone get delay with Nougat update, P9 lite is weaker phone over Mate S, I hope it will get 7.0 updatr, battery with Marshmallow is very efficient and lasting, browsing performance very good, I don't do gaming but in that department is excellent too, camera great....so choose what is best for your needs

  • Wich one I should pick huawei p9 lite or mate s ?? and the battery of mate S is it good ?

  • Dose the battery work will ? I mean it is only 2700 mA

  • I just got this mobile. Updated to Android 6.0.. Happy as a cheesecake :) It works flawless.. LOBO

  • I'm sure Huawei will send nougat update to mate s We receive marshmallow update nowadays so nougat will take some time But really really big difference between lollipop and marshmallow 360 with emui 4.0.1

  • Hi, I have had several communications with Huawei who have not yet even promised Marshmallow so Nougat is nit going to happen! Wont go Huawei on next contract update as they are way behind and dont seem to even bother with upgrades once you have purchased one of their phones. Shame.

  • Hi guys updated to marshmallow 6.0 emui 4.0.1 Build CRR-ULOOc185360 , After updated screen feels redish unpleasant, specifically while on clash of clans and candy crush, does any body else having same problem ? If so then solution plz

  • I just want to ask about how to delete languages from the keyboard of the mobile

  • it Is Lovely phone, after marshmallow update the phone increase your battery so much. I get It in Portugal for 306€. At this moment dont receive the nougat update and not on the Huawei list but later is likely which will get the Nougat

  • Dear Customer, Thank you for contacting the Huawei Customer Care Team.

If you have any further questions please feel free to contact us. I hope this proves to be useful and I wish you a great day! Best regards, Andra Huawei Customer Care Team --- Original Message --- FROM:[email protected] SENT:06/12/2016 10:07:00 To:Huawei UK-Mailbox SUBJECT:Update of Huawei Mate S with EMUI 5.0 and new version of OS I bought this smartphone last month, I was thinking.that will.get latest > update with new version of android OS. Will this phone get new OS and new > version of EMUI 5.0? > If that don't happened I will never buy any of Huawei products, this phone is magnificent, but time frame when this phone come to market tell me that will get Nougat update.

  • P9 Lite can? ... I do not believe he is not compatible MATE S have same performance or better than P9L It's very bad, last year's top of the line did not receive the update, He has everything for 7.0 he is more powerful than many line-in equipment that comes with the v7.0

  • This phone dont get Android 7.0? why? this is expensive phone

  • 12 hours tops

  • Battery blife is excellent, no worries about battery on 6.0 update...

  • What is this upgrade plz I want to make it

  • how about battery life?

  • Reason for not updating this device, is Nougat needs new Open G.L. standards that this processor can't handle...Huawei is very disappointing manufacturer that cant handle last year's devices to update a last OS, I have M on Mate S it is working perfectly in every aspects....so why Huawei...I one of your buyers but this thing will stop me to buy my next device.

  • Yes.... really

  • Huawei anounced naougat update for different phone but mate s is not included. Very disappointing

  • i real felicitor but do have any improvement on the battery ?

  • Battery life is magnificent, it last day, day and half of use, with 6.0

  • is there any improvement in battery performance after upgrading to 6.0 ?? is it lasting longer then 5.1?

  • Yes I do have Marshmallow update on this phone it works flawlessly, so its terrible thing to dont get upgrade new OS

  • actually it was for limited stock, most of the local mobile sellers bought it to sell it later with higher price, coz officially this model still has price tag of 49k in Pakistan. those sellers are selling it at 36k on olx.pk. earning 6k on a single unit , huge profit on single mobile

  • Huawei haven't even updated to marshmallow yet so Nougat won't jappen i believe.

  • I already visited all metro branches but physically not available it was just advertisement for customer attraction.

  • Ok, this phone will not get offical update by Huawei, Nougat will not come to.this unit. Reson lays down in processor. Not suitable because, 7.0 requires new OpenGL standard, this processor can't handle. Sources from Germany and Switzerland.

  • For those who have used how do you find battery life ? i want to buy this phone

  • I have just purchased it @ the cost of 29,900 from metro cash nd carry store. Plz visit your nearest store.

  • Disappointed on the screen its abit dark and its too expensive

  • what about 7.0 android ? any planned update in future ?

  • I see from other comments, Marshmallow came to the Mate S a couple of weeks ago. Not here in the UK unless I have missed something. How do I get this upgrade? Any idea's amyone?

  • Hi hw about battery life with marshmallow update..

  • Hi.. so u mean to say not to go for 6.0 how about d older version of os when it cumes to battery life

  • mate 8

  • Recently with the new update to android 6.0 i keep having poor battery life, the worst is when i slept @96% and woke up @39.%

  • Thanks so much. So I will be able to see when a message come through.

  • Hi all....may i know which is better between all of this... Mate S, Vivo v3max, redmi note 3, mate 8, honor 5x, and xiaomi mi 5... which one is better..btw, i am into phone gaming...

  • yes it has

  • Guys just need to know something with this phone. Does it have the front led notifications like blackberry and samsung! Please. I'm partially deaf.

  • Ty man

  • The Mate S clearly have all the features that the other two have. They have the same processor the HiSilicon Kirin 935. But the P8 has two version. The HilSilicon Kirin 930 and the 935. So much likely the P8 is s bit of pain when buying the more prenuim verion (935 variant) and the 930 variant has only 16gb of storage so, yeah go for the 935 variant.Second problem is that the Huawei P8 have no finggerprint sensor unlike the other two, it has a bad battery (2680 mah). But the p8 has a fantastic camera but mostly the same from Mate S The Honor 7 is the almost the same as the Mate S. They are only different in the battery and in the camera. 3100 mah vs 2700. 21mp vs 13mp wth ois (and i assume like the P8, the Mate S has the RGBW sensor so mate S is a good camera phone) plus the 3d touch display. hope this helps bro

  • What shuold i buy huawei mate s, p8 or honor 7? And why?

  • Marshmallow came to mate s a couple of weeks ago

  • Hi guys . I am really in a difficult position and i need your opinions. I want to by a phone and i dont know what to choose Huawei Mate S or Meizu Pro 6 ? I need to know a lot of things about Mate S. 1) Is it good choise in this days to pick that phone ? 2) Shows any problems in the future ?

This cell phone is the master class from Huawei. I can go for mate 7 or Mate 8 but due to their sizes i preffered Mate S. The best size brilliant LCD no lack of speed no hanging nothing else. I am just in love with this phone. For those who still just thinking

  • Someone who can answer me this one has an amazing camera or ? :)

  • hi dude, what about battery life ?

  • Lg V10 or Mate S?

  • thank you for replying me dude, i just want to ask you about the camera performance in good light and low light , does it take good photos compared with lg g4 or what

  • High everyone! I am here only to give my review that based on hands-on experience 1-The body is so attractive and you can feel its strength 2-The screen is so shiny, colors are so beautiful with deep blacks, the AMOLED impact is really remarkable, it is so clear and exquisite under all kinds of lights 3-Camera is not the best but still reasonable according to its price, the front camera is really nice for taking selfie specially that surprising flash which helps in taking good selfies in darky modes 4-Really fast in multitasking, no over heating, can function so much available games 5-Fingerprint is the best ever no doubts because Huawei is really famous in this field, the screen gestures ( knuckles commands ) are really nice *Conclusion : I am pretty sure that this phone is really best in its price range, and highly reccomend it Wish you blessed days!

  • Hey dude! Well i bought my sister this phone like a month ago, and i can totally tell that it has a superb amazing brighty colorful screen, the screen works amazingly under sun-light, it has amazing built quality the metal is really doing what it takes to be strong, and it is fast in multi-tasking, no heating issues, battery is not the best but the fast charging is really surprising According to its price i can totally tell that it is the best one among all other brands products! Good luck

  • Hello, how are you guys i just want to ask about something i am confused and i want to buy a new phone with the following specs and i want advice 1- Amoled screen or screen which seems bright and clear colors 2- dual sim 3- Good camera 4- good battery and less heating problems alot of people advise me with the lg g4 and i am thinking with Huawei mate S or HTC E9+ so which is better . so please answer me i am soo confused and i want to buy soon

  • Most underrated flagship ever. Great display, camera better than p9. Fm radio and premium aluminium unibody.

  • Overall, a really good phone. I don't like Samsung and iPhone. Phone wise, it never hangs, camera is fast at snapping photos and it's clear. I have the gold, nice color and it's nice to hold too.. If you want bigger phone, go for the Mate 8, but Mate S is good enough.. The only downside is the battery. Of course since it's only 2700mAh. No big deal for me :) Oh, does anyone encounter, if you drop your phone, it automatically resets? Please let me know about this. Thanks

  • p8 or mate s

  • Try turn off wifi, beceause that is very often the main reason that batteries are loosing energy.

  • This phone is an absolutely jewel, design is so stylish, excellent screen and a good camera, I bought this one because my Samsung S6 was unbearably hot all the time and I have to say it was a very clever decision. This phone almost never heats up, its got quick charge and I get a full day of battery mainly using social media, e-mails and internet browsing. If your options are Lg G4, Samsung S6, Iphone 6 or this, you cant go wrong with this phone.

  • Hopes to see a succesor to the mate s Names: Mate S2 or Mate X Features: 4GB - 6GB RAM, 3400-4000 mAh, 12-16 MP Camera

  • Should I buy mate s or galaxy note 4

  • Thanks for ur opinion dear...i disabled all apps that i dont need or that i need and GPS already was off...0 apps are running after screen turn off.. but it still discharge 1% to 2% in half an hour.. is there any fault in its battery???..just a week ago i bought this phone..overall phone is really amazing..but im disappointed with its battery..kindly tell me plz

  • Mine did the same. Facebook was a bad culprit. Make sure your GPS is turned off when not in operation. Make sure there are no apps trying to make constant connections. Goto... Settings... Privacy & Security... Protected Apps. Then make sure you disable all apps that you don't need.

  • When update marshmallow for Mate s...???

  • There is just one speaker in mate s that is in left side..

  • Kindly pls tell how many speaker for mate s...pls response is it in the right or left side or both of them are speaker?

  • Just a week ago i bought this phone.. everything is amazing...just little issue of battery that i told below..kindly tell me why it is??

  • Can anyone tell me why its battery get low while im not using it..After half an hour its battery percentage become 1% down..why?? Kindly tell me plzzz

  • Few differences g8 bigger battery mate S it's a little smaller and lighter. camera the same on both. Mate S it's better looking for me.

  • Yes, friend, but the price on P9?!?... Ou the horror!

  • Mate 8 would have been my choice if it had been available from service provider.. Ended up with S7 edge. GEAR VR at half price swung it!

  • Mate 8 is also good one.

  • So far so good, is a nice machine, best design

  • If you want bigger screen and good camera go for mate 8,or P9 plus, I'm using mate s is a good phone

  • Mate s, note4

  • Go for a P9 or P9 plus (Kirin 955) .. Latest technology used in the Kirin 955 (16nm) Mate S has Kirin 935 (26nm).. . Also smaller graphics chip in Kirin 935. The Kirin 955 also has newer LPDDR4 memory. The latest chipset will be faster,more efficient and will run cooler

  • Am little confused , which one is best, P9, mate s, mate 8, note 4, LG g4, google nexus, sony xperia Z5.....:-(

  • Mate S of course

  • Ebay or Amazon

  • I really wondering where these phones are available

  • I want to buy this phone, but I want to know is good at camera, battery life and I can instal big aplications ?

  • no miracast!!! i wish with the release of upgrade we can see this function. I'm really looking forward to this. if anyone can take this to their ears, please do.

  • Mate S

  • They're both good, but Mate S 3 gb ram and more camera options and fun on camera, and as a huawei fan i will say mate S :) ( better build quality then a5 too )

  • Depend on your budget but p8 is cheaper now also have better camera than g8

  • Hii frnds Im going to buy a phone in last of may, Should i buy mate s or A5(2016). Your opinion is priceless for me thank you.

  • Yes you are. Note 4 still the best samsung device to date.

  • Mate 8

  • Should I buy Mate S or Mate 8?

  • Should I buy Mate S or Mate 8?

  • The same price of note 4 , so i would go to note 4 .. am i right ?

  • The only reason is the software integration, other than that its nothing other than an American designed , also Chinese made piece of phone, I'll take the Huawei anyday over that piece of flawed hardware, but smooth os only due to the 100+ programmers!

  • Beautyyy.well done huawei

  • Phone shows the image in low resolution and then run its proccessor to make it hd .many phones do that

  • Mate S is amazing phone ... I bought it 2 months ago. But I've noticed some delay when looking jpg images on the phone, some kind of pixels slow down. Anyone have explanation .. or advice !!!!

  • Huawei mate s is good phone then s6 edge plus because mate s battery is really amazing since four days in norma use and up to 4g its 2 days easilyy really graet set for huawei thanks huawei

  • Which phone is better samsung s6 edge plus or huawei mate S

  • He is true.. i am using that device... Nothing about LOL...

  • Mate S... LG has very bad software optimisation, a lot of bloatware and awful battery, my friend has it, so i tested it... With Mate S you will have awesome battery life and good software expieriance :)

  • Hello Sir/Madam, Please can you help me to get software of Mate S, I get gift from my uncle who lives in China and iam living in KSA Saudi Arabia, iam facing problem with language to convert in English and I did but when I will go to purchase application like Facebook or Whatsapp etc, its showing in chines language? I think need to update new software by country region as Saudi Arabia, please can you help me or your opinion to get solution, With Thanks,

  • LG G4 definitely better!

  • i need to ask a question....LG G4 and Huawei mate s, which one better?

  • Hey buddy thats is your opinion I have been using huawei phones for a long time for me the mate s compete with the mate 7 and better than the mate 7 itself and be imform that its amoled display makes the difference

  • Lol sammy fanboy

  • After using Huawei for less than 6 months, there are a lot of hardware problems arising.

  • Mate s definitely

  • irrelevant

  • ROFL

  • Mate S, Although Sony has some better specs like the camera (Technically), MP wont make the biggest difference. Sony software is very glitchy. I have a P8, my friend the Mate S, and we both think this is an amazing brand

  • Mate S. very Powerful device, also includes all P8 features

  • Iphone has a dual core proccessor but performs better than any other android phone.

  • nope , i feel sorry for u dude.. paper spec has fooled you. even with dual-core , iphone perform much better than those 8core bullshit. again, i feel sorry for u

  • huawei Mate S compare with Huawei P8 and Oppo R7 Plus. which one is better?

  • 2700 mAh is too small for a phablet

  • Yes mate S .... Much better

  • Iphone? Lol with its dualcore processor haha .... No thank you

  • Youre just another fanboy trying to break down a good product

  • No its not.... Its awesome

  • Huawei

  • I think it has a sleek design compared to other makes well done huawei for that but your prices are way too high

  • ratings reviews

  • Guys,one question I need to ask.. Huawei Mate S or Sony Z5??? Help me.

  • This phone is totally an overpriced phone from China! Totally worthless!

  • Well I mate s went to g3.get has better rear camera

  • which one better between mate s and honor 7 ? please help me

  • I went from a G3 to the Mate S. The Mate S is far superior in everything, except that the finish on the casing is so slippery it is hard to not drop it.

  • no doubt iphone 6

  • try huawei p8 lite

  • are u drunk to compare a G3 to a Mate S?

  • Is the dual sim active or standby??

  • SAMSUNG Galaxy A5 (2016). You can answer or reject calls with a single tap on the screen. No need to swipe anymore!

  • ineed the best for watching videos playing games easy handling with fingerprints lock and 5.0 inch. any other phone except Huawei mate s

  • Which should i buy between lenovo vibe x3, zenfone 2 ze551ml and honor 7? I am a heavy gamer and music lover Plz suggest guys

  • Maybe Lenovo Vibex3 would be a right choice.It uses a Snapdragon 808 Hexa core chip which is fairly powerful and snappy.Even the battery and the audio output is excellent.

  • Which should i buy between huwei mate S, honor 7, letv le 1s and lenovo vibe x3? I am a heavy ganer and music lover and my phone shouldn't lag is my priority. Pls guys who have bought the phone suggest on basis of user experience and not specs.

  • Awesome mobile phone......

  • Awesome mobile phone......

  • why do you need to vibrate to be strong for?? :)

  • It's a Restriction by Google. Can't write to External SD card except using it's own file Manager service. ES File Explorer can by pass it by granting permission while you doing the transfer. when prompt you just choose the SD card and choose select all then grant the permission it will do. I had use it on my Mate 7. It works just fine for me. Only Huawei device can do it. Others all have this kind of restriction since Lollipop 5.0

  • Huawei Mate S is just awesome

  • Had this phone 3 months. No battery problem, lasts 2 days. Phone really quick, camera great. Cannot fault apart from the vibrate is not very powerful.

  • nope...I think only 128 gb model has it...

  • Buy it Huawei have no complaints I sales more then Huawei 20 mobile believe me its good for you if the persons have really have that mobile and they face problems then show there Imei number withou without this don't believe them many of them are paid to make product cheap and some of them are working in other companies so they feel jealous so don't believe them its a gud device for you 100 time better then iPhone

  • I have not problem with the phone in this 3 months in my hands.

  • I'm very happy with the phone. Battery life is good! Camera is excelent!

  • Bad battery

  • That is because the S model is supposed to be the superslim model, if you want a massive battery go for the new Mate 8

  • Bough the device a couple of days back. Till now very happy. Found an issue like when I transfer any data from Phone Memory to SD Card got an error "Could not write file". Any one having similar issue. Any solution for the same. Any help will be highly appreciated. NOTE. Able to move files from SD Card to Phone Memory

  • In a time where we are seeing more and more phones with 5000mAh + batteries, this one really falls short. A 2700mAh battery is 2010 specs, the mainly the manufactures have finally realized that we do not want to be tethered to a wall outlet. The Huawei Mate S couldn't go a full afternoon doing its phone functions and using the GPS non stop to do Geo Caching, a battery intensive usage. It's a shame that with a frame size of 5.5", they didn't put a larger battery in the phone....

  • is it 4G or just 3G.....

  • Buy iPhone 6s. Greater than ever I'm a iPhone user since 2009.

  • No problem with my two Huawei units, ShotX and MediaPad X2.

  • me too ,i keep emailing them about a WiFi problem in my mediapad t1 and they don't even bother themselves and respond to me

  • i'm really confused with people comment i don;t know huawei mate s is good or iphone s 6 pluse :/

  • Very bad after sales service support. Be careful before buying any Huawei Product.

  • Are headphones working at the same time or in the second director placebo

  • True. Huawei ShotX with 5.2" screen have 3100mAh battery.

  • Is this phone support OTG protocol

  • Bro.. There is nothing worried about battery life . use properly.. U can effectively make up with it

  • can any one tell about the mate s battery life it seems short (less than one day) 2700 mA for 5.5 inch ??

  • Is ur model comes with forced touch??

  • looks amazing and stronger than everrrr go huawei i really love huawei devicesssss

  • You don't get it. I am talking about LG G3 which doesn't have fingerprint compared to Mate S. You should be the one to read well.

  • It does.You don't read very well.

  • I experienced Mate 7 for one year now, the best I had ever experienced, battery is wonderful, performance is great ... thanks Huawei

  • Huawei ShotX

  • Which one is better?? Mate s or mate 7 battery life and performance camera ???

  • If it doesn't have fingerprint sensor, never mind.

  • Huawei ShotX

  • Your wrong my friend, LG G3 is not better...it has a really bad battery life ...Lag ... Heat issue while gaming that could really hurt my hand. I hate my LG G3 and comparing to my friend's mate S i really prefer the mate S.

  • Compare with LG G3. One year older G3 is better than Mate S.

  • Mate S or Galaxy S6?

  • Go for Honor 7i instead.

  • No way! I am about to buy this phone but when I reviewed the specs, I found out that it is only Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n. Such a high end phone with WLAN of years behind! Sony Experia Z5 is better with Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac!

  • Yeah, i think its way better than samsung now

  • Is it much cheaper than galaxy s6 64gb? If its not cheaper to galaxy s6 64gb by $200 than bye bye....mate S

  • regarding the samsung comparison, samsung used to have a good product line, then HTC stole the show with its limited products yet more reliable than the samsung. but going above samsung means going above the norm.

  • sure mate s is amazing phone , i had htc m8 but now i have p8 i saw the huawei phones goes to the top

  • Guys I m using this phone I think huawei now going better than Samsung

  • Does it have fast charging option?

  • what the different between mate s and g8??

  • i wants to know the battery life time it looks like P8 or better then that

  • It's mean that you are satisfaied

  • bought it today from the shop and assistant said that im the first who bought it :D, so far i see friendly stuff in it like screen recording and ability to change displays icons without downloading/rooting anything, well i think huawei is trying to get back on market :)

  • Hello guys, I need to create or add a new page for the installed apps in my Mate S. Now, when I install new app I can't find a space or page to add this app. Please help me to solve this issue and what I've to do. Thank you

  • Mate S has a force touch display indeed . I see it on the Official Youtube Video of Huawei mobile

  • MateS

  • Hi, I want to know the difference bettwen the mate s and the new HTC one A9. Witch of the two smatphones is better than the other?? Now I have tha HTC one

  • mate s

  • htc m9 plus & mate s which is better???please reply

  • htc m9 plus & mate s which is better???pls rply

  • this phone is like samsung j5

  • I can't believe that the battery is 2700 mAh only

  • Ikr, almost the same price of S6 and Z5, which is IMO better, what are they even thinking?

  • More expensive than the more quality S6.

  • how much does it cost in dubai

  • A few of Huawei new mobile looks too HTC lately. haha

  • I hope P9 with Kirin 950 and all new stuff finally will be in pair with 2016 best smartphone flagships. I really like Huawei but I dont know why such a big manufacture cant made superb phones.... maybe it need time like Samsung with it Galaxy models when finally came Galaxy S6 really superb phone in all categories, Huawei just need repeat that.

  • pray hard

  • Stolen design from HTC One Max. Design your own. don't copy

  • Overpriced! A couple of dollars more and you sony z5. Really Huawei?

  • Uh...Think Nexus 6P also a device by Huawei.....I think those you pointed out doesn't have force touch features like this one do.....

  • 2299 aed

  • Buy Oneplus Two, ZTE Axon Elite, or Xiaomi Mi Note Pro If not, Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Nexus 6P or LG G4 also better than this.

  • Unfortunately the fact is Huawei phone got shattered glass and yellowish screen!

  • Just bought mate s in Dubai. Im using it for 2 weeks now. Im impressed with the performance, the camera was great, the build quality is superb. Huawei did a very good job. Coming from samsung note 3...No regrets....

  • Ineed this phone tell me what can i do?

  • It's very bad than htc a9

  • I will prefer htc a9 due to its ui(sense 7) and better audio quality

  • Is there any heating issue on Mate S ?//?

  • Probably another weak audio output from Huawei which will make this device imperfect yet again. Huawei compromise with audio quality in their devices.

  • Been using this phone for a week. So far everything's good. 2 years warranty + free extra earphones worth $150. The specs and battery life not as bad as they say. The fingerprint unlock is cool. It's worth it, for those who think it's too expensive. It has front camera flash, that's the biggest appeal to me.

  • A client of mine sells mobile phones. He said the Asus Zenfone 2 has as many defect/malfunction during the first 3 months as the Samsung S6 and LG G4. While the Huawei devices, surprisingly, are more reliable than those.

  • which is best for buy...mate s or htc a9????????pls rply

  • Amoled screen is more battery saving than LCD, 2700mah might last longer than you think... look at Meizu Pro 5, Amoled 1080p screen with 3050mah, battery endurance rating 95h!

  • why¡¡¡¡¡ why AMOLED??? i think and i prefer IPS is better than AMOLED

  • What about ifrared (IRDA)?

  • 13MP??? 2700 battery??? Go to hell huawei

  • even gsmarena published that P7 is receiving 5.1.1. google is here. it can help. for your infos honor lines had their 5.1.1 too. 4c,4x,honor6 honor6+

  • I think asus zenfine 2 or selfie is far much better than this. Its price is 999 in singapore. I dont know why the heck people would buy this damd expensive phone when iphone 6 or Note5 is selling same price. I would prefer asus to get better specifications in phone like hardware, gpu, battery etc and asus will be 75% cheaper than this one.

  • It's now for sale in Saudi Arabia

  • The phone is awesome have force touch nice feature but will take almost a year to launch world wide and till that we can buy iPhones

  • Apart from the CPU the other specs are very similar to the LG G3, which cost a lot less. Does this CPU worth 50% more? I doubt it.

  • Wonderful phone i like it specially the golden one and nice specs!! Pls. go ahead Huawei !!

  • Are you kidding or cheating? Mate S price is half of Note5? Then I think your Note 5 is a Chinese clone phone!

  • 2700 battery??? no thank you

  • price. It is half of the price of note 5 . Huawei mate 8 is omming soon and that will be competitor for note 5

  • Ohhh please. Note 5 in Malaysia is a dual sim version. Nothing in the spec of Huawei Mate S can beat Note 5. Note 5 still a champion is smartphone territory.

  • AMOLED display is not good. in high brightness picture quality became a blur.

  • Those Chinese brands like to use upper midrange hardware in the phone and sell it with flagship phone price now! So we should boycott them!

  • Are you still sleeping? Note5 is dual sim in Malaysia.

  • This is the way that Chinese brands always like to use for cheating us!

  • Mali-T628 MP4 its now very old gpu for what i call low end phone that try to pretend be a high end mobilphone,crap it's the right word

  • Regards This mobile is duel sim not only one like note 5

  • Agree

  • In Malaysia, its price is RM2698. With this spec and such an expensive price, I would rather buy Note 5 with much much much higher spec than this crap and lower price tag of RM2499. How can Huawei put a such high price for this non-even high spec phone?

  • For expert people What is the meaning of WIFI ac ? Is all mate S boxes supplied by fast charger or special countries or as separate accessory ?

  • Too expensive for that specs...

  • The Price Group 9/10 Phone has only 2700mah ? & No Wi-Fi ac

  • huawei should've just made the phone a single sim phone and stop trying to deceive people by saying it is dual sim because it's really just another piece of compromise.

  • my hope phone

  • I can't care less. It's not a deal breaker to me as 32GB is good enough not to mention there is 64GB if you think you would need more memory.

  • I myself never used 2 sim slots, if you do then it's logic that you're gonna sacrifice some expandable storage also 32 GB's are lots to some people

  • Expensive phone with under power CPU!

  • HTC One E8 costs almost same as Honor 7. And it is much better than Honor 7 and comes with dual sim option also. With HTC Boomsound speakers and Snapdragon 801 processor, it is the best phone for mid-range buyers.

  • reviews and battery life test please....

  • An already awarded smartphone with good specifications that really run cool. Well done Huawei, can't wait for your marshmallows update to this amazing flagship .

  • As a matter of fact, the battery is pretty good considering it can last for more than one day on a heavy use which more than enough for everybody. Not to mention that the temperature run very coooooool with this phone.

  • There is no separate slot for micro sd. SIM2 slot is used for micro sd. Total Waste of a good phone. Honor P8 and Honor 7 also failed because of this.

  • Very high price. Oh Huawei if you not sale 30% you will be lose.

  • Saw it in person at a shop here in Saudi Arabia, absolutely stunning design and build (gold 64GB version). I used to have a Mate 7 but the size was just a bit too big this is perfect however. What really got me was price, $585 is insane! For the same price I can get a Note 5 which is far superior in specs or even get a Note 4 which still trumps it and have plenty of cash to spare...or the G4 or the Moto X Style, get the idea? CPU is good but the GPU is astoundingly bad compared to the previously mentioned devices. Wish Huawei would realize this.

  • if they didnt promise to update their flagship then go sell peanuts better they already updated in china long time ago because they can be fu..ed over there. stupid minded company

  • They didn't promise it. But they did update the Mate2 to Lollipop, even though they didn't promise any updates at all.

  • Hai 2days before only I bought this phone very stylish and good looking wroth for money ........

  • Actually mate series will come out one model per year, mate8 is next year device..

  • Hey guys , I was to buy this phone but I saw something that astonished me ,with all these great specs that are found in this phone , I found in wlan section it's using wi-fi b/g/n only while all latest smartphones use wi-fi a/b/g/n/ac so I had a question would this affect the power of the wi-fi in my phone or it wouldn't be a big deal because I want to connect to all routers without any problem or signal weakness , please anyone replies

  • The Mate S is not a direct successor to the Mate7. There will be a Mate8 or something like an updated Mate7 coming Q4 2015.

  • The price is too high. I can buy a Samsung S6 Edge less than this.

  • big shame on battery, Mate flagship laying low wont sell that much

  • You forgot to mention that this phone is splash resistant.

  • I'm still waiting for the complete reviews of this phone and the battery life result

  • The battery is just 2,700 only? It is mission impossible for the phone to last for one day! At least 3,000 just enough. The selling price also very expensive! Not worth to buy!

  • Check My Comment Below !

  • Well I Must Say This Mobile Is One Of The Best Devices Ever Made By Huawei. Display,Camera And Performance Of Mobile Is Up To The Mark, Special Features Like Knuckle Sense Director's And Light Painting Mode Make This Device Stand Alone In This Line Up.. Battery Is 2700 mAh But Can Use ALL DAY ! Unlike Iphone And Samsung . For Me I Will Give 9/10 For Mate S One Mark Less Coz Of Price Is High.

  • force touch is good and upgrade 6.0

  • Oppo phones and alcatel and huawei perfectly phones. I like so much mate s. Good camera. Battery perfect.

  • Yes! With all its advance specs, mate s will surely suck a lot of battery. I wonder why instead of increasing the battery from mate 7 which 4100mAh to only 2700mAh??? I would have loved its specs but hate the battery...apart from the battery, it is for me a great phone. when they will increase the battery i will surely trade all my phones to get mate s.

  • this is note the new mate 8 which is the new mate 7 just wait for it.

  • i want to buy this phone any advice about it any reviews from people bought it please

  • Go to authorized huawei service center, they can help

  • 2700 m ah is quite good enough, look at the feature, a kirin 935 and a quad core, also implemented with a H265 codec to view better video, Huawei is the best phone, ever , and her local secure finger printing, is why i chose this mark of course, but the only thing to do now is to ban all America component ^^ privacy is all want i want perpeaps, in the future it will use, a zrtp module to call somebody in a encrypted way... :D

  • 4100 mAh for Acsend Mate 7. LOST 1300 mAh???? Are you kidding me?

  • Thanks mate

  • I understand your problem cause now i want to buy a new phone also with the same features you want, i advise you first forget the p8 !!! Mate s is fornsure better than mate 7 but yes thats it the battetry is the biggest concerning aspect i have too :( look i owned an oppo 7 with speed charging 75% in 30min and can tell you one thing this feature is astonishing, so look at a sony smartphone maybe sony z4 or sony z5 !!!

  • Hi, anyone can tell me which the Huawei phone is best please?

  • İs there any bending issues for the mate s like the iphone 6 plus?

  • mate 7 battery 4100MAH very nice compare mate s

  • i cant decide and i've been trying to choose between three huawei phone...but each one has pros and cons...i'm lost between the "Mate7", "P8", and the new "Mate s"...i like the mate7 because it has a massive battery plus it has a wide screen and a fingerprint sensor, however the graphics are a bit low i guess. i also like the P8 because it is looks elegant and nice and the graphics are better than mate7. but it has a low battery life and no fingerprint sensor. concerning the Mate S, its beautiful, nice graphics, nice features, fingerprint sensor. but it has a very low battery concerning it is a big phone(5.5"). and my very main concern is the battery, but i also dont want to loose the other features and stuff...if someone who knows all three can help me that would mean alot..really, like alot, cz i have been lost and fed up for a long time now...thank you :D

  • I can't wait for the reviews of this phone especially the battery life test before I buy it, I'm eagerly waiting for it.

  • Off,mate 7 have 4100mha and mate s 2700....i don't like this!

  • i want to know if huawei p8 is good in camera and touch plus memory

  • Gorgeous and awesome... but why scarifying and SD slot and not allowing double sim cards? that's mean... too bad... Cheaper phones (for ex. i ocean, offer this with less than half the prie and great specs.... (OK no finger scan.... but who cares yet? ) So paying high end price for Huawei ? sure not ready yet to do that.

  • Battery mate 7 4100. why mate s just 2700 only?

  • Wow, this phone IS sexy! Just makes me want to buy it. impressive 4g frequencies, doble (signal+) antenna - should get more signal than samsungs, has amoled screen, and, most importantly, the microsd card slot!! HD resolution, 5Ghz wi-fi, and lack of fast charging is a big minus though. still, this phone is sexy!!!

  • At least 3000mah battery is required these days. Other hardware specs are increasing like ram, processor, internal memory. But battery remains the same. Mate 7 sold out because of battery capacity. This phone will fail like Lenovo Vibe x2. Good looking and all but poor battery life.

  • Please tell us about this phone when you recive i t

  • Because Huawei want to cut cost and maximize the profit.

  • Ordered a 64GB silver one from wondamobile. They say it will be shipped on Friday. Can't wait to try try it out! It is a little expensive at the moment so you may want to wait until price drops.

  • Compared note 5 price very high....

  • Why Huawei why always a same GPU in honor 6, 6 plus, 7 and mate so too..

  • This Huawei Mate S just as the other Huawei P8 has one feature missing: 5Ghz wifi. Everything else is in, 32GB or more, LTE B20 (for users in Euroland), a decent screen, and so on. I sure like the design, the fact that they have a release in Europe, and high-end specs. That one 5GHz feature would make it the one device I could use for everything where I take it. But this way... inner cities are crowded with 2.4GHz wifi signals, and so this shows a lack of understanding of the market and puts it on par with many smaller companies that omit it for that little bit less investment. Must wait for a new Nexus device then.

  • I know right? They basically took everything we liked about mate 7 and threw it in the bin!

  • even the standard version has 32 GB internal storage, they even offer for 64GB and (maybe) 128 GB version.. you expect 4000mAH battery on such sleek device with restricted space? 4000 mah battery might be possible if: 1)the phone itself must 6inch instead 5.5 like the ascend mate 7, or 2)the phone itself needs to be a bit thicker to give space to cram that 4000mah inside the phone. If you want a phone with bigger battery, perhaps Lenovo phones could satisfies you

  • 16 nm manufac. Process

  • Kirins are power efficien

  • One of reasons that makes me not buy Huawuei is the use of SIM2 as memory card! why not have third slot for memory card with the 2 other SIMs!!!! in addition to that the battery for 5.5 inch at least to be 4000mAH

  • AMOLED displays perform better than most of IPS except for the top notch like iPhone etc and AMOLED are mostly similar plus with great brightness and veiwing angles i just don't like the over saturated colors on AMOLED

  • 128GB internal + 128GB Micro SD???????

  • IPS LCD is BRIGHTER than AMOLED! 1) Apple iPhone 6 (IPS LCD) ( White, cd/m2 = 740 nits) 2) Xiaomi Mi Note (IPS LCD) ( White, cd/m2 = 626 nits) 3) Huawei Mate 7 (IPS LCD) ( White, cd/m2 = 530 nits) 4) Lumia 1520 (IPS LCD) ( White, cd/m2 = 522 nits) 5) Samsung Galaxy S6 (AMOLED) ( White, cd/m2 = 473 nits) 6) Samsung Galaxy NOTE 4 (AMOLED) ( White, cd/m2 = 400 nits) 7) Samsung Galaxy NOTE 3 (AMOLED) ( White, cd/m2 = 380 nits) SOURCE: GSM Arena tests

  • Is it available at the PH?

  • Dud'e r u sure?

  • Dud'e r u sure?

  • 2700 mAh non-removable battery, what a pity.

  • Lols,u sire deserve a cookie. *hands over a cookie

  • 2700mah with Kirin processor needs charging twice a day.

  • When will we have in Brazil, or you can import into Brazil ?

  • I have had AMOLED screens since 2009. I currently have 7 devices with AMOLED screens including an LG TV. I have never had a single issue with Burn-In, not on any device from Samsung, Motorola or LG. Nor any problems with Burn-Out, (half life).

  • This Price Very High.

  • It's completely fine after a year. Main reason I stick with Samsung phone is because of their display, nothing beats it.

  • I know those feels brau! I still have the pornhub homepage burned on to my screen after I borrowed it to my mother for a day.

  • Please don't post sad emoticons phoneviper, we're all friends here! A/S/L ??? I am a loyal spamsung, but could be persuaded either way....

  • This phone is great , just a shame i don't have any "Mate S" to contact. :(

  • I never like amoled screen. It will have burn-in effects after a year usage..

  • 730 us dollars

  • can you plz tell meh it z price

  • Everybody is calling it Mate 7 successor . But I think is actually Lite version of Mate 8 which is the successor of Mate 7 . Due to production issue of TSMC , Huawei fail to get the Kirin 950 Soc . So, to fill the gap they launched Mate S which has a less powerful processor , smaller in size then traditional , still a end build to keep it high end like the Mate 7 and a Top shelf product in the places of Mate 8 which they couldn't bring in time. You can call it a high end Lite version rather then a traditional budget Lite version . Overall it's a device by spec . Any typical person will enjoy it .

  • I really in love with the design of mate S but the battery is 2700!! For phone 5.5 inch I don't like it and the display why Huawei switch from IPS LCD to AMOLED!!!!! I really like the mate 7

  • Wooo glad Huawei put force touch on their phone before the iphone 6S comes!

  • What a wonderful phone..💝💘

  • Any phone will be an awesome upgrade from the iPhone 5s :P

  • Guys the phone actually doesn't have thick black borders around the screen .. check here screen is 2.5D

  • what you will be doing with it removing battery every day ? :DDD

  • This is not true. There is no logical reason why Huawei is switching to AMOLED now. I used Huawei Mate 7 (perfect IPS LCD) and the battery is great. Even if LCD display eats more battery than AMOLED , the difference is minimal and not worth switching to. Even Samsung Note 4 (which supposedly brighter than Note 3) not as bright as Huawei Mate 7. Moreover every AMOLED is over saturated and not as natural as a high quality IPS LCD display.

  • There is a Mate 8 for god sake. This is a different category.

  • This is definitely a downgrade version of Mate 7!

  • The phone isn't called Mate 7S or Mate 8, and instead Mate S for a good reason. So stop the "downgrade" comparison with mate 7.

  • I want removable battery! LG G4 is the only option for me.

  • Reduce screen size give better resolution to the display and increses it ppi value. LCD display is not a good display for smartphone. There is one main problem with LCD which is it used up too much battery. Sony also aware of this problem as an article mention " the displays being LCD, they need to be lit up entirely whereas AMOLEDs could save some mAhs when kept in such a case". The article(from GSMarena) discussed the usage of a smart view casing for the smartphone-Z5 Premium. You can see that having AMOLEDs display give you more advantage in battery saving which also leads to the explanation of the reduce battery size too.

  • Just missed my expectation; only 2700 mah battery, not acceptable.

  • I fucking love the design 10/10 currently i am using Iphone 5s thinking for an upgrade i think this time i am gonna move with this phone .the only thing I hate in this phone Is Fingerprint location it should be in front .

  • Most of the features are the same compared to P8 and P8 lite, but the switch to Super Amoled is even worse. Huawei is disappoints me this time.

  • This just teases you of the mate 8 and huawei is taking down notes of what their customers want and what is to be improved based on this device, just wait a little bit longer it will be worth the wait...

  • I love the dimensions and the move to AMOLED. I might be alone but with a 1080p display 2700maH is plenty, my s5 with 2800maH lasts far longer than I need (usually 3 days of moderate use). I'd rather have lighter device with reduced bezels than more battery than I need.

  • Zero market mate S... we want the specs of mate 8 on rumor mill...

  • 2700mAh???? 5.5"???? does it is really Mate????

  • You are absolutely right! 1) reducing display size from 6.0 to 5.5? 2) switching from a natural and bright LCD to over saturated and less bright AMOLED display? WHAT HAPPENED WITH HUAWEI?!

  • The only drawback is the use of the 2nd sim slot to place memory card...

  • Nice design with bad specs specially the battery :S

  • I guess the 4k Z5 stole the show.

  • waited, but thanks, not interested in. waiting 2016/Q1 fot Mate 8, Kirin 950, 4GB, 6", 4100mAh or more

  • 2700mAh seriusly?

  • This is it.....will definitely grab it.

  • 2700 mah? Amoled display? Is this Huawei mate?

  • Is this a joke? Where is Mate 8 or Mate 7s with supposedly 4gb RAM and 5.7 or 6.0 display size? I will be shocked if the display size reduced from 6.0 to 5.5 like on this phone!

  • a new flagship killer from Huawei, but 27000mAh batterie in 5.5" body :/ i hope that huawei well exploited the consumption...

  • crappy gpu.. same as honur 6.. cant even play subway surfer smooth like adreno 330
