Huawei Mate 9 curved version may not happen after all

Image
The Huawei Mate 9  is expected to arrive in the not-too-distant future, with the Chinese company's  November 3rd launch event  almost certain to spawn the successor to  the Mate 8 . Recently, it's been said that a standard, 1080p version of  the 5.9-inch monster  could be accompanied by  a dual-curved variant  boasting a quad-HD resolution. A new tidbit infers that the Note 7-esque finish may  not  be on the cards, though.  For the most part, the rumor mill has pointed to a flat but large panel for the Huawei Mate 9. During the past week or so, talk of a curved 'Mate 9 Pro' has gathered steam, substantiated by a leak from the ever-reliant Evan Blass.

Huawei Nova and Nova Plus Review

Introduction How many different ways are there to put together a smartphone? Manufacturers pick and choose components from myriad sources to bring us tricked-out flagships with bleeding-edge specs, ruggedized handsets able to withstand a little abuse, and even incredibly affordable budget phones that can be purchased, clear and unlocked, for little more than the cost of a nice dinner out. While the sort of phones we get at the very top and bottom of the pricing spectrum tend to fall into a few common patterns, things are much more interesting – or at least much more varied – when we focus on the mid-priced space. Some of those phones will try to deliver flagship-quality performance at a discount, while others may concentrate more on design or one or two stand-out features.  With its new Nova series, Huawei looks to bring style and refinement to mid-rangers, crafting a pair of handsets designed to evoke the same sort of jealous looks owners of lesser devices fee...
