HIGHLIGHTS

• Mate 10 Pro expected to be launched on October 16
• It is said to sport a 5.99-inch 18:9 display
• It is likely to be priced above EUR 900

Chinese handset maker Huawei has already confirmed its October 16 event where it is expected to reveal the new Mate 10 series. Adding further speculation, Huawei's Mate 10 Pro has now been leaked in press renders while price has been also surfaced.

Renowned phone tipster Evan Blass has shared two images of the alleged Huawei Mate 10 Prowhich is likely to launch later this month showing the handset in its full glory. The leaked render shows that the Mate 10 Pro will be sporting an 18:9 aspect ratio while will also feature dual cameras at the back. Much like previous Mate-series phones, Huawei is likely to tie-up with Leica for the dual camera setup on the handset. Another leaked image shows the dual camera setup on the Mate 10 Pro with Leica branding and teasing f/1.6 aperture value for the handset - an aperture the LG V30 currently boasts of.

The rear panel image also shows the fingerprint scanner located just below the dual camera setup. Huawei branding is also visible at the front and back panels.

Another tipster, Roland Quandt, has separately claimed that the Huawei Mate 10 Pro has been spotted in Eastern European retailers with an alleged pricing of EUR 930-940 (roughly Rs. 72,000). If this turns out to be true price tag of the Huawei Mate 10 Pro, then the premium phone could be seen a direct competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.

Based on preliminary leaks, the Mate 10 Pro is said to sport a "EntireView" QHD (1440x2880) display with 18:9 aspect ratio, and a screen size of 5.99-inches. The Mate 10 Pro is also said to be launched in four configurations: 6GB RAM/64GB storage, 6GB RAM/128GB storage, 6GB RAM/256GB storage, and 8GB RAM/256GB storage.
