Huawei Nepal launched its flagship of 2017 in Nepal today. The Huawei P10 plus was announced in press event at Soaltee Crown Plaza. This is the updated iteration of last year’s P9. It is a joint launch of Huawei and Ncell data pack offers. It is expected to compete with other flagship n market like the Galaxy S8. Current price of Huawei P10 Plus in Nepal is Rs 79,000.
Huawei is old and big player in telecommunication sector. Their smartphone branch is relatively new. They may be new compared to Samsung, LG and Sony but they are making pretty good phones. Last year’s P9 was a very good phone. This year the company has improved and polished its flagship more.
There are a lot of similarities in P10 Plus and the predecessor. Huawei also has just normal P10 in the portfolio. Plus is the better variant being offered. We get the dual camera at the back just like last year. It still has a fantastic camera, battery, processor and design. Lets look at the specs first.
| Processor | Octacore (2.4QC+1.8 QC) |
| Chipset | Kirin 960 |
| RAM | 4 GB |
| GPU | Mali-G71 MP8 |
| Internal Memory | 64 GB |
| Display | 5.5” IPS-NEO LCD |
| Camera | 20 MP f/1.8 + 12 MP f/1.8 Dual set up at back |
| Battery | 3750 mAh |
| OS | Android 7.0 Nougat |
The spec-sheet looks very good with all top-notch hardware. They have QHD resolution display with Gorilla Glass 5 protection. Dual camera t back can give very good depth of field and crispy shots inducing 4K videos. Battery size is also pretty good which can easily give one day of battery life.
The quad core processor has two sets of quad core. One is high power Cortex A-73 at 2.4 GHz and next is low power Cortex A-53 at 1.8 GHz. Huawei P10 Plus utilizes home-made Kirin chipset. Their camera is one of better aspects of the phone as well. At the front, P10 Plus features 8 MP f/1.8 shooter.
Ncell Huawei P10 Plus Bundling
Both companies are partnering to bring this phone. Ncell is now bundling the new smartphone with attractive offer. Every P10 Plus customer gets 1 GB free data monthly for 10 months. There is now improved after sales service.
Customers can get 3 months insurance on display. Door to door service within Kathmandu valley is also a new service. Huawei also introduces Diamond 2 Hour after sales service where customers can get their device fixed within two hours.
Users can activate the service by inserting Ncell SIM on new P10 Plus handset and sending a SMS. Type “Ncell” and Send it to 17100 to activate the package offer.
Impression
Looking at the features and price, it is very near to other flagship phones in the market. It has very good camera optics from Leica but some competitors are providing much bigger aperture size for low light. Another point is IP rating, which is not present here but it is splash resistant.
Their new after sales service package is one of the best in the market. It does makes up for the price and premium consumers are paying. The company said they see good future in Nepal and will be bringing more devices in future.
But except few things, Huawei is offering beautiful and strong design with all the latest hardware. We love the battery size, dual camera and form QHD resolution. They are packing 4 GB RAM and 64 GB storage which is up to the standard. P9 was a success and we believe P10 plus also packs awesomeness to do so.
