You will notice that the Huawei P10 looks a lot like the P9, aside from the front-facing fingerprint reader embedded in the home button which makes that bottom chin bareable. The Huawei P10 joins the lost of Huawei devices released this year such as the GR3 (2017) and GR5 (2017).

  1. Same rear cameras and pretty much everything else as the Mate 9, but smaller, sleeker and (now) more expensive.

    Massive fan of the Mate 9 here, except they seem to deliver Android Security Patch updates very rarely (Last update for Kenyan Huawei Mate 9 was from December 2016 patch to April 2016 patch).

    That is worrying in 2017 (the year of the hacked device) for a premium flagship phone. I’m sure we’ll be the last to get EMUI 5.1 too.

    Sadly if you buy a P10 in Kenya it’ll more of the same I assume. I wish Huawei Kenya would step up in this sense. Everything else (including EMUI 5.0) is great!

    • Yes, Huawei are not even close to being good when it comes to updates. Unfortunately, Kenyans don’t care that much about updates and that won’t stop the masses from buying the P10.
