Huawei Mate 10 will sport bezel-less display

Xiaomi, Samsung, LG and Essential Phone have one thing in common. They all have a flagship product with bezel-less design. Moreover, the upcoming flagship from LG (V30), Samsung (Note8) and Google (Pixel 2) will also have bezel-less display. Add to the list Huawei. Rumors already had it that the company's upcoming flagship will have bezel-less design, but now the confirmation comes directly from Huawei.

Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei's Consumer Business Group revealed few details of its upcoming flagship: Mate 10 to Bloomberg. First of all he confirmed that the Mate 10 will feature a full-screen display for a bezel-free design. It will also be even more powerful than its predecessor and have longer battery life, quick charging speeds and better photography capability.

Interestingly, Huawei wants to compete against the much-anticipated 10th anniversary edition of Apple iPhone. The Mate 10 is said to debut right around the time when Apple introduces iPhone 8.

Yu did not give any further details about the specs. However, it is likely to have a bigger screen size of around 6-inch with 18:9 aspect ratio, octa-core Kirin 970 chip and Leica branded dual-camera.

The report also adds that Huawei is aiming to grow its mobile shipments by only a modest amount this year. It also plans to exit the entry-level market, because the margin in this segment is very low, and it's not making enough profit for the company. Instead it will focus on mid-range and high-end devices.

At present, Huawei is one of the top three smartphone manufacturer in the world, and top player in home market China. In India market it has hardly made any impact.
