Good exposure and generally pleasant color at all light levels, Wellbalanced noise reduction at higher ISOs, Good manual control in Pro camera mode, Decent front camera with useful front flash, Responsive general operation and swift camera startup, Water
Smeared luminance noise noticeable in areas of plain color at base ISO, Slightly elevated tendency to clip highlights in highcontrast scenes, Slight blur and softness in some images, even in bright light, Ghosting and very warm skin tones in flash images,
The Huawei Mate S is very nicely made, comes with a useful fingerprint reader and offers a very good range of imaging and camera features, including comprehensive manual control over shooting parameters. However, the camera app feels a little unstructured...
Although relatively unknown in some parts of the world, the Huawei Mate S is an excellent smartphone that brings together a lot of photographer-friendly features into a coherent, well-thought-out package. Although low light performance is less convincing...
Comes with a flip cover included, Seriously attractive design, Solid construction, EMUI 3.1 has all the features you might want, Selfie camera is up to snuff
Display needs work, EMUI 3.1 poses some fundamental user experience issues, Recent apps menu is clunky and awkward, Main camera has problems with focus a bit too often, General camera performance is inferior to the best out there, 1080p video is underwhel
At €649 in Europe and about the same in green through Amazon US, the Huawei Mate S is aimed at the premium market, and it definitely looks the part. Of course, that alone hardly exhausts the list of requirements you bring to the store when you're ready to...
Incredibly strong, thin and well shaped metal build, Excellent screen quality, Lots of software features, Sound output is phenomenal, Lots of options in the camera software, International signal compatibility
EMUI has huge UI issues, Camera has poor low light performance, Camera software can be slow, confusing, Digitizer needs work, Performance is horrible for the price, Final Thoughts, While the Mate S has been out for just under 2 months now, it already felt
While the Mate S has been out for just under 2 months now, it already felt dated at launch. Part of this is due to the high price tag and terrible performance for that price, and while the build quality is among the very best in the smartphone world it...

Solid, wellmade chassis, Dual SIM support, Excellent use of fingerprint sensor
You can use a MicroSD card or a second SIM, but not both, Knuckle gestures are awkward to use, Force Touch functions are only available on forthcoming 128GB model
Huawei has done a good job with the Mate S in terms of its physical design, and the extra functions added to the fingerprint sensor are also welcome. We like a lot of what's been done with the EMUI skin too, although it might not suit all tastes. However...

As we're coming to the conclusion, I'm left with mixed feelings in regards to the Mate S. In terms of design, this has been by far Huawei's best device to date. The vendor has managed to update or to improve in all aspects of phablet design: aesthetics, e...
The Huawei Mate S takes sharp photos, it has enough power for everyday tasks and its metal design look and feels great
It's too expensive, Huawei's custom Android is messy to use and the pressure-sensitive display is a pointless addition that adds nothing to the overall experience
Though Huawei's flagship Mate S has classy looks and a great camera, you can find better-performing top-end phones for less money elsewhere...
