Huge phones have no presence here, biggest I've seen are 5.7 Note's.

Old mike , 29 Aug 2016Yes I agree mate, phablet flagships over 5.7 inch are a bit thin on the ground, for those of ... morei was a first day samsung galaxy note 1 user. loved it. then i had the note 2 and note 4. loved them. i own the mi note pro because it was the first SD810 phablet available.
since i played with my friends mate 8 which is 6", i don't want to get a phone below 6" anymore. so the galaxy note 7 isn't for me.
Z, 29 Aug 2016They didn't cancelled The Mate series . They said it will months later not now in,IFA . Mate... moreah. yes, youre right about that.
Nova smartphone for women? Huawei thinks women need large volume rocker. What? They think women have huge fingers?
AnonD-62863, 29 Aug 2016why are ALL THE PHABLETS in the 6+ inch range equipped with a mid-rance SoC? the 65x or 808 or... moreDo you need any more clues as to why no one is buying or making these gargantuan pocket slates/tabs?
AnonD-62863, 29 Aug 2016why are ALL THE PHABLETS in the 6+ inch range equipped with a mid-rance SoC? the 65x or 808 or... moreYes I agree mate, phablet flagships over 5.7 inch are a bit thin on the ground, for those of us that like big devices that have all the bells and whistles, it's really comes down to why don't you buy the galaxy note or nothing .
And the note is a great device, but if you have had two or three of them you may want to try something else.

Mate series is their flagship Phablet series.
They sold handsome number of Mate 8.
So, they will definitely bring a successor but in November.
AnonD-379427, 29 Aug 2016Obviously running out of idea who to copy. Its not coping.
Its how to tackle business.
They can act like sitting ducks like Apple and start to lose marker share .
why are ALL THE PHABLETS in the 6+ inch range equipped with a mid-rance SoC? the 65x or 808 or helios devices, or kirin, that isn't even capable of HEVC encoding... wtf is going on in the (true) phablet range? i'm not talking about sub 6 inchers like the galaxy note 5.7".
last years xiaomi mi note pro was a true flagship (i own it), and now xiaomi doesn't bring any flagship 6+ inch device, as well as LeEco canceled their 6.4 inch SD62x device. now huawei cancels the mate series and announce a "midrange phablet". i wait to replace my mi note pro with a 6+ inch device using a flagship SoC since january...
who they will copy now?
Obviously running out of idea who to copy.
What I understand about this rumored Female centric Series is just a Midrange Phone with 13,16 or 20 MP selfie camera .
It has become a trend with brands like Oppo, Vovo etc .
And they have more Female users then Huawei .
The Huawei executive also said they want to counter Oppo,Vivo with this upcoming series .
So, its definitely understandable ehat kind of "New Series" is coming .
AnonD-446067, 28 Aug 2016So they are holding a new event, JUST FOR a midrange phone??The Mate 9 will be released on a different date
AnonD-446067, 28 Aug 2016So they are holding a new event, JUST FOR a midrange phone??No, the midrange phone is getting revealed on 1st september.
AnonD-446067, 28 Aug 2016So they are holding a new event, JUST FOR a midrange phone??Exactly
AnonD-446067, 28 Aug 2016So they are holding a new event, JUST FOR a midrange phone??That was the Honor 8 btw... Probably a Huawei Watch 2. The unboxing experience of the Huawei Watch was epic for its time, lets see what they have in storage. Altough, the Gear S3 running Tizen should be one hell of a nuclear missile in terms of performance.
So they are holding a new event, JUST FOR a midrange phone??
The mate 8 was only announced and released around November, so this is to be expected.
But even then its only a Chinese release. I think the mate 8 was only available in the west around January, unless you imported it at a slightly higher price.
