Lately, Huawei has just launched their new product known as Huawei Mate S. With this new machine, Huawei now has many screen sizes to offer consumers. If you need a 5.2-inch one, you can consider the flagship Huawei P8 or the mid-range Huawei Honor 7. If you want a phablet bigger than 6 inches, you may like Huawei P8 Max. And now, in case of looking for a common size like 5.5 inches, Huawei Mate S seems a good choice.

Huawei Mate S carries a high-end metal design like Huawei Mate 7 with a smaller FHD screen, 5.5 inches, plus Force Touch technology (which allows its 2.5D AMOLED panel to recognize a light tap and a hard press in order to respond appropriately) for selected markets. Moreover, the whole phone is powered by the newest chip of Huawei – Kirin 935, paired with 3GB RAM and a fingerprint sensor.
