Some thoughts after using mate 10 for 4 days:
- screen contrast is really not bad for a lcd screen. No problem with the auto brightness, it seems to know what it's doing
- hand grip and form factor is good, despite it being 16:9. One handed usage poses no problem for me. Better than my moto z play, despite the bigger screen
- battery life is kind of a bag of mixed feelings for me. Could be due to the new phone euphoria. Or maybe I'm spoilt by z play. Hit or miss: sometimes 6+ SOT, max I reached is about 8 SOT. FhD or wqhd resolution doesn't seem to make a difference.
- software : first time using emui. Not too bad. I like some of their power features and the fingerprint sensor navigation. However, it still seems quite buggy. The swipe gesture on the fp sensor will fail to work completely sometimes.
