Except for the 4GB+64GB P10 model, all the other models are priced at over RMB 4,000 (around $582), while the 6GB+256GB P10 Plus model is priced at over RMB 5,000 (around $728). As a matter of fact, few Chinese smartphone makers dare to enter the over RMB 4,000 smartphone market and compete with iPhone and Samsung in the global market.

　　Sincerely Huawei became the second largest smartphone makers globally in 2016 (after Apple and Samsung), its ambition was also gradually growing. In recent interviews, Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei Consumer Business Group, made it clear that Huawei’s goal was to “rise into the number one smartphone maker”.

　　Statistics suggest that the growth rate of Huawei’s shipment volume in the past few years has maintained above industry average. From 75 million in 2014, 108 million in 2015 to 140 million in 2016, Huawei’s shipment volume has continued to grow rapidly in these years. According to Huawei, mid and high-end smartphones account for 55 per cent of the total shipment volume, which certainly strengthens its determination to continue the dual flagship series strategy.
