Huawei-Mate-S

The Chinese manufacturer Huawei has the Huawei Mate S (where the S stands for Special), presented the first smartphone with a Force-touch display. With his sensitive for different pressure levels 5.5-inch display, the high-end device to Android 5.1 "Lollipop" for Huawei deny the holiday shopping season.

Unlike initially sought in the context of several leaks, the Huawei Mate S will not come up with a 5.2 but with a 5.5-inch full HD display. This results in sense inasmuch as that which presented in spring Huawei had P8 already equipped with a 5.2-inch panel - and certainly not two but otherwise identically equipped devices with the same screen size will offer different housing.

The major innovation at the Huawei Mate S is as mentioned using a Force-touch displays, so uses the same technique that was also responsible for Apple's upcoming iPhone 6S models talking and is already being used in the sense Apple Watch. Huawei wants the technology for example, use when zooming. A long press on the bottom takes on the function of the Android keys. Those who like to want to put anything on his smartphone, is the technique but can act as a balance. Apparently, Apple is but ultimately wealthier the first smartphone with the available technology and specifically in the trade. 

The display of Huawei Mate S uses an AMOLED FHD panel that achieves a pixel density of 403 PPI at the said resolution and size. It features a cover made ​​of 2.5D glass, so is slightly rounded at the edges to the rear. The back of the Huawei Mate S is still kept in metal and in unibody design, where there also since the predecessor Mate 7 built fingerprint sensor is housed. Technically, the Huawei Mate S uses the same base that was already talking about the P8 in use - So there is the up to 2.2 gigahertz HiSilicon Kirin are 935 SoC with eight cores, the three gigabytes of memory aside. The internal flash memory will be great up to 128 gigabytes, which also models with 16 or 32 GB to find at first dealers. The memory expansion via MicroSD card slot will also be possible. There are also re-variants with and without dual SIM support - depending on the region, with Europe at first probably would collect only the single SIM variant - the local network operators thank -. Not even when the cameras the Huawei Mate S has known food : The rear camera comes with an RGBW sensor with additional white pixels, to ensure low light so for better pictures. The resolution remains at 13 megapixels and from P8 will be back - which has the same sensor - known features like light painting supported with a particularly long exposure time. An optical image stabilizer, there are also what is likely the Huawei Mate S bring excellent image quality. The front camera has the likewise known from P8 eight-megapixel resolution and is supported by an LED flash. Three built-in microphones to help with the equipment, better filter out distracting noises in the audio recording and the user can also specify a certain extent, the direction in which the recording should concentrate. 

Because Huawei the Mate S probably again wanted to realize somewhat thin, but the necessary for the Force-touch feature technology in the display takes up more space, and the phone itself with a 0.5 inch smaller screen comes along than its predecessor, the battery is shrinking in comparison Mate 7 to significantly and is now 2700mAh large. Previously, there were 4100mAh and the competition provides the 5.5-inch range with good 3000mAh also greater power storage -. A significant step backwards so as the operating system running on the Huawei Mate S once again the current Android 5.1.1 "Lollipop", which here as usual combined with Huawei's own EMUI 3.1. Although this interface uses a highly customized design, but also offers some quite useful features, which ensures that the EMUI imports significantly better reviews than it was the case with other manufacturers own user interfaces. Huawei to bring the instrument in the normal 32-gigabyte version for 649 euros on the market. With double space it costs 699 euros. Pre-orders for this will be available from 15 September. The Force touch technology is there but only in an extra edition and only in certain markets - more on this will be announced during the month.
