Something is in the air people. Yes. I can feel it. When Vodafone called to try and keep me as a customer (here’s how that’s going by the way), they offered me a Huawei handset. I asked them how the Huawei handsets were doing against the likes of …
Want to see more of the Huawei Mate 20 lite? It was announced at IFA and is the first look at the new Mate 20 Series from the company. The handset is fairly cheap at £379, and is powered by a Huawei Kirin 710 octa-core + i7 microprocessor …
OK, so I was daft enough to mention the fact that I’m looking for a new phone. You may remember that I broke my Huawei Mate 10 Pro and I’m still looking for someone to get the data off that. There’s almost two weeks of photos and videos …
Whenever I write “giffgaff” on my phone it seems to change it to “guffguff”. Personally I think they’re missing a trick there. Anyhow, Network of the Year for three consecutive years (according to uSwitch) has some great deals on if you’re looking to bag the excellent P20 or …
Huawei really stood out in terms of design, especially with their latest P20 Pro flagship phone. Now, to celebrate their new Twilight colour, they’re highlighting the work of twilight workers around the UK with a study into those working outside of normal office hours. These workers – some …

So Vodafone called. They said, “Hey man, we’ll give you a holiday in the Caribbean and brand new Audi R8 if you mention the fact that we’re doing to Huawei Mate 20 lite.” “What?” I said, “You mean the one we mentioned last week? The one that’s well …
Meet the newly-announced Huawei Mate 20 lite. You can go and get one right now on the Huawei website. It’s going to set you back just £379 and it’ll be available from Carphone Warehouse, Vodafone and EE from October. It’s billed as the “first look at the Huawei …
Huawei has chosen their keynote event here at IFA 2018 to Launch their new Kirin 980 SOC which features the first 7nm chip construction. The key stand out features of the chipset are to enable better facilitation of the On Device AI that was introduced last year with …
I’ve been on holiday recently. I had a lovely Huawei Mate 10 Pro with me. It was the very one that I was using when I showed you the Huawei Desktop Mode and you can see our full Mate 10 Pro review if you’re looking to buy one. …
A few days ago I took a look at Huawei Desktop Mode. It’s part of EMUI 8.0 and it’s available on the Mate 10 Series handset I’ve got at the moment. It gives you a larger desktop experience which is almost like my Chromebook, but everything is powered by …
OK, so this is how the story goes. I was reading the excellent review of the Huawei P20 that Dan had written. Garry had written an equally brilliant P20 Pro review and I was keen to learn more about this whole “Huawei Desktop Mode” thing. So, I had …
Huawei has formally set its plans for IFA 2018 in motion. Today they’ve started sending out an invites to their keynote on August 31st. The great news is that we will be there to see exactly what Richard Yu will have to share with us. In fact, I’ll …
So, this is a bit mental, but believe me, it’ll be worth it. Today, in Soho, Huawei have setup a popup store. However, things are a bit .. different in this particular store. They’re offering the rather excellent Huawei P20 Pro. It’s the one we raved about in …
As you can see I have made a fairly bold statement up there. That my friends, was not just for clickbait. It was a serious intended question, which during the course of this review I intend to answer. I have had the privilege of testing a few of …
If the standard Huawei P20 Pro is not enough of a stunning visual design with the mind-meltingly good camera then you can now pre-order its premium brother. This come’s in the form of the Porsche Design Mate RS, it has just gone up as available for pre-order with our friends over at Clove …
The glitz and the glamour are done, so now it’s time to get the real work done. The unboxing of the P20 Pro. So, let’s dive into the video first and then we can analyse the phone further.. Let’s start at the top of the phone and work …
After the big launch in Paris, Garry has now uploaded an unboxing video for you all to enjoy. The P20 Pro, as you saw in the earlier post, has three cameras – a 40MP RGB sensor, a 20MP Monochrome sensor and an 8MP sensor for Optical Zoom. …
With all of the focus being on the P20 and P20 Pro announced yesterday, let’s not forget the P20 Lite which is now on sale at Vodafone UK with some impressive specs for the price. The P20 Lite features a Leica branded dual 16 megapixel / 2 megapixel …
We have covered lots already on the impressive new devices from Huawei, and we have now had release information through from EE. Both the P20 and P20 Pro will be available to order from tomorrow, the 28th March, with a launch date of 6th April. EE will be …
With Vodafone? Wanna be with Vodafone? Wanna get the new P20 or P20 Pro? Listen up, my friend, listen up. Both the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro are now available to pre-order at Vodafone UK. You can grab the Huawei P20 with 16GB of data for the price …
As you might already be aware, Huawei have just announced the brand new P20 and P20 Pro in Paris, and as expected we are now getting network information through. Three have just confirmed that pre-orders will start tomorrow and the device will come into stock on the 6th …
So, while Garry is running around Paris being all cosmopolitan, I’m sat in the Coolsmartphone HQ bringing you news of another handset that Huawei announced today. It’s the Porsche Design Huawei Mate RS which, sadly for all of us here at Coolsmartphone, isn’t the car above. It’s a …
Bonjour! We’re in Paris for the launch of the new Huawei handsets. They’ve just taken the wraps off their latest devices – the Huawei P20 and Huawei P20 Pro. We have already seen a lot of leaks about these devices but now it’s time to put these leaks …
We are going to be live in Paris at the unveiling event for the new Huawei P20 series of phones shortly. As I type I’m actually under the English channel! We will be tweeting all the news on the @Coolsmartphone Twitter account too. However, if you want to …
I’ve seen leaks before, but the Huawei P20 has drowned us in a torrent of pictures and specs. Today, in not-very-long-at-all, we’re going to see the three handsets in the flesh, but earlier in the month we had Vodafone telling us all about them before we started seeing …
You kids. All you want to do is watch YouTube. Written text? Pah! That’s so last century, and if I make this article more than two paragraphs long you’re all going to lose interest anyway, so… After the rather amazing Huawei Band 2 Pro review I posted yesterday, …
Huawei is about to host the event where they are going to unveil their next generation of devices – the P20 family. It looks like they have decided to promote these with two campaigns. The first consists of them driving large trucks around the various major cities in …
Nokia. Remember them? Well, of course you do. They’re still around. However, when Microsoft swallowed them up and started sticking Lumia branding all over them, there was one thing we kina liked. The camera technology. Anyone remember the Nokia Lumia 1020? It had a 41 megapixel PureView camera, and …
Next Tuesday is a very special day indeed. It’s my son’s birthday! Yes yes, everyone wish him a happy birthday! It’s also the launch of a new set of Huawei handsets. Away from the craziness of Mobile World Congress, Huawei have decided to announce their new devices at …
Just the other day Vodafone confirmed that they were going to range the P20, P20 Lite and the P20 Pro. To be honest we knew that the P20 was coming but we weren’t aware that there was going to be a P20 Lite or a P20 Pro. What …
Right, sit down people. I need to talk to you. How many of you have a Samsung Galaxy? How many of you have a Galaxy S8? Well, if you break the screen on that, you’re facing a bill of over £240. Sometimes more. If you have the Galaxy …
I’m going to soak up a lot of this piece with a comparison. I know you’ve come here for the Huawei P smart review but it would be remiss of me if I didn’t mention the brother from another mother. In the past couple of weeks I’ve used …
Ah.. now. We’re in a tricky position again with this. Technically none of the handsets actually exist yet. They’ve not been launched, but Vodafone have confirmed that they’ll be ranging them soon. Whilst this is good news, but the launch hasn’t happened, and it won’t do until March …
We all know that the dawn of self-driving cars is rapidly approaching, Tesla is pushing the boundaries every day. I have driven the new Nissan Leaf with Pro-Pilot and my standard battlecruiser (aka VW Passat Estate) has got the basics of it in the form of auto cruise …
A few days ago we had some mysterious postcards sent to us from Huawei. There was a definite emphasis on camera tech and, although we’re not expecting the handset in question to be announced at Mobile World Congress. This, we think, is all about the upcoming Huawei P20. …
Hello, what’s this? Some postcards? Sent via Royal Mail? From Huawei? What could it all mean? With Mobile World Congress just a week away, we figured Huawei might be sending us something about that, but it looks to point to a P20 launch in Paris on March 27th. …
OK. This puts us in a bit of a tricky position. Yesterday Vodafone told us that they’re ranging the new Huawei P smart. We said, “That’s nice, but we can’t find much about it”. So, we did some digging and unearthed all this information. It was puzzling because …
This is a phone we can’t actually find on the Huawei website right now. What we do have is a Google cached version and this video… It’s has a 5.65″ Full HD (2160×1080) screen and measures in at 72 x 150 x 7.45 mm. Vodafone have confirmed to …
Over the years I’ve grown to love the Huawei and Honor handsets. Right now I have the Honor 9 and it’s a fantastic device for the money. Great camera, great performance and great looks. Love it, I really do. Trouble is, there’s one thing it won’t do. For …
