News & Reviews:   Huawei Mate 20 review

2019 is looking very competitive for the smartphone market. Many phones are coming out with interesting innovations such as foldable phones, UD fingerprint scanners, triple cameras, weird notches and so on. Huawei looks geared and ready for 2019 with their plans on announcing their new 5G smartphone, a quad camera with insane optical zoom and full screen gestures coming to their devices.

So we have been posting quite a few posts about the Mega Online Sale Day by Huawei Malaysia for a couple of days now. With just a day away from 11 November 2018, we figured that we will just do a compilation of all the promos that they are having. Without further ado, below is our guide to Huawei Malaysia's Mega Online Sale Day!

In conjunction with the Huawei AppGallery November Bash promo, Huawei Malaysia is giving away around RM1.6 million worth of rewards for Huawei and honor users from now until 11 November 2018 via Huawei AppGallery app. With this, the company has partnered up with several brands to reward the new Mate 20 series users.

The Huawei Watch GT that was announced in London alongside the Huawei Mate 20 series is now available in Malaysia for the price of RM999 for the classic variant which is available now and RM899 for the sport variant available starting 6 November 2018. The smartwatch comes equipped with battery life of up to 14 days before needing to recharge again thanks to the dual chipset that intelligently switch between a high power and low power mode in order to increase the longevity of the smartwatch.

After the weekend Huawei Mate 20 series launch here in Malaysia, it appears that reception of the Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro has been exceptional globally as well as massive crowds converged in both Shanghai, China and Singapore. Reported by GizGuide and CNA Lifestyle, long lines and massive crowds weren’t just a thing here in Malaysia apparently, as crowds lined up from 6am (Malaysians started queuing from 1am) to pick up their pre-ordered devices or get a brand new Mate 20 or Mate 20 Pro smartphone. As for the rest of the world, the Philippines has started pre-orders for the Mate 20 series.

The sales launch roadshows for the Huawei Mate 20, Mate 20 Pro, MateBook X Pro and MateBook D have gone off with a bang. With huge crowds gathering at Pavilion KL, the Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro came to Malaysia at RM2799 and RM3599 respectively.

For those who missed the fact that the Huawei MateBook X Pro with Intel Core i7 processor is coming to Malaysia soon, here's a shout-out in that it will be available at the previously mentioned roadshows starting from the sales launch on 27 October 2018 from 9.00am but in limited quantities. While the MateBook X Pro and MateBook D were previously available for pre-order, the MateBook X Pro with Intel Core i7 processor was not included. In addition, the first early birds in the queue will get free Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) earbuds to go with the Dolby Atmos audio.

Right after the release of the Huawei Mate 20 series in London on 16 October 2018. Toutiau.com has reported that the Huawei Mate 20 Pro has been praised by as much as 14 medias in Europe such as CHIP, ComputerBild, Connect, Les Numeriques, FrAndroid and more. Some of them has even stated that the Huawei Mate 20 Pro could even the best smartphone of 2018.

Huawei Malaysia has announced that pre-orders for the MateBook series consisting of the Huawei MateBook X Pro and MateBook D have sold out, with more MateBook X Pro laptops selling than the MateBook D. But fret not, for those who are still interested in getting some of the first Huawei Matebook laptops in Malaysia you can do so at the official sales launch roadshows happening at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, Queensbay Mall Penang or at Aeon Mall Dato’ Onn in Johor Bahru from 27 October 2018.

With the recent pre-order of the Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro, Huawei Malaysia has announced that the flagship has already sold out on its online shop, Lazada as well as 3ex online website. We don't know how many units did they sell, though, but the popular demand is there and customers who couldn't get it can still wait for the official launch day on 27 October 2018.
