The Huawei Mate S was officially launched in Malaysia for RM2698 today and is available at all major distributors and resellers. While at first we felt like it was just another smartphone launch, you really have to take a closer look at the phone firsthand for the excitement to build. Featuring a gold and coral pink coloured metal body that is both curvy and light, we felt that the Mate S feels thinner and more premium than even the Huawei P8. The full tech specs and features for the Huawei Mate S include the following:
- 64-bit 2.2GHz octa-core Hisilicon Kirin 935 processor
- 3GB RAM
- 64GB storage
- 5.5-inch AMOLED display (FHD 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution, 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 4)
- 13MP rear camera (OIS, RGBW, dual-tone flash) + 8MP front camera (soft light)
- supports 4G LTE, GPS, Bluetooth 4.0,
- 149.8 x 75.3 x 7.2mm | 156g
- Android 5.1 + EMUI 3.12700 mAh battery (quick charge)

After months of rumours, Samsung have officially announced their Samsung Galaxy Note 5 phablet for public consumption. Gone is the artificial leather backside to be replaced with a very Galaxy S6-like glass and metal back and thinner profile. Featuring a new 5.7-inch Super AMOLED display with 2K or QHD resolution, the new Note 5 packs in the same S Pen but it can now be auto ejected. As rumoured, it also packs in tech specs that include the latest Samsung Exynos 7420 processor, 4GB RAM, 16GB / 32GB storage options, a 16MP rear camera with wide f/1.9 aperture, optical image stabilization and auto real-time HDR along with a 5MP front camera with f/1.9 aperture and a fingerprint sensor. There are obvious sacrifices to this new look as the battery is now a smaller 3000 mAh and there is no option for any microSD slot. On the other hand, it is one of the first smartphones to have quick wireless charging with a 2 hour charge time. No Malaysia release date or pricing details yet but it is expected to arrive in the US on 21 August 2015. We expect the Malaysia release to be within the same month of August 2015.

Ramos is a mostly tablet making company from China and have come out with some fairly impressive tablets. Recently, they announced their first smartphone with the Ramos Mos1. Taking a step ahead of other Chinese smartphone makers the Mos1 is the first metal frame smartphone we've seen with curved yet layered look to it. According to Ramos, this was done to get the ideal 158-degree angle curve, improving the grip and making it stand out from the rest of the crowd. Tech specs and features are a mix of high-end and midrange with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor, 2GB RAM, 32GB storage and 5.5-inch FHD display. This display is protected by 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass while a 13MP rear camera and 5MP front camera round things out. A 3050 mAh battery powers everything. The Mos1 measures in at 7.6mm thin and is priced at 1999 CNY (RM1226) placing it around the same area as the Honor 7 and Meizu MX5. No Malaysia release dates yet but keep an eye on third-party sellers like DirectD or SatuGadgetDotCom and it could appear there.

Meizu have officially announced their latest Meizu MX5 smartphone with a number of premium features you don't often see for a device coming in from 1800 CNY (RM1081 for the version with 16GB storage). This includes a fingerprint sensor built into the home button and more. The 32GB storage version will be going from 1999 CNY (RM1214) while the 64GB version will go for 2399 CNY (RM1441). All versions will feature a 5.5-inch FHD AMOLED screen with a rounded full metal casing that makes it look nearly exactly like the Apple iPhone 6 Plus. Even the 20MP rear camera protrudes a little but makes up for it with laser autofocus, 4K h.265 format video recording and dual tone LED flash. Other tech specs include a 2.2GHz MediaTek Helio X10 Turbo processor, 3GB RAM, 5MP front camera and 3150 mAh battery. At just 149g and 7.6mm thin the Meizu MX5 is rather light for a full metal smartphone. No Malaysia release dates or pricing details yet, but with Meizu Malaysia here, it should only be a matter of time before it reaches Malaysia.

Breaking free of previous restrictions it is also the first Honor smartphone to come with a 20MP rear camera which also comes with phase detection auto-focus, dual tone LED flash and a sapphire protective glass layer. Tech specs include a 64-bit 2.2GHz octa-core Kirin 935 processor, 3GB RAM, 5.2-inch FHD display, 8MP front camera, 3100 mAh battery, fast charging and Android 5.0 Lollipop. Pricing is surprisingly affordable with the single SIM 4G LTE version with 16GB storage going for 1999 CNY (RM1214), the dual SIM 4G LTE version for 2199 CNY (RM1335) and the dual SIM 4G LTE version with 64GB storage going for 2499 CNY (RM1517). No Malaysia release dates or pricing details yet but Honor Malaysia should be bringing it in soon. A lot of other features are also available such as more complete voice commands like the speech awareness on the Huawei P8, while the premium design should make the Honor 7 even more of a value-beating device here in Malaysia.
