4 + 5. Huawei P10 and P10 Plus
No. 4 and no. 5 are Huawei phones: Huawei P10 and P10 Plus. This month, we have been able to collect some interesting pieces of information about those guys and you know what, they will be announced in March or April 2017. This was revealed by the company’s Chairman and CEO of the consumer division Yu Chengdong not long ago, so we think it can be trusted thoroughly. Spec-wise, Huawei P10 and P10 Plus are likely to house HiSilicon Kirin 960 chip set, 5.5-inch Quad HD screen, 6GB RAM, and 256GB ROM. Though, perhaps the P10 will have a non-curved display, while the Plus will do. Anyway, let’s wait a bit more to get a full sheet of Huawei P10 specs as well as Huawei P10 Plus specs!
