        AnonD-743635, 23 Mar 2018From now to October, is a long wait You need to remember that Huawei's Mate series has always been available for sale at that schedule because it is their answer to Samsung's Note series. Also, I don't think it's a problem for anyone to wait out for a few more months or so if they still have a perfectly working smartphone and is not in a hurry to buy a new one.

        With that said, what I really am concerned about is the price of the Mate 11 (Mate 20) since the P20's price is kind of disturbing... and what I mean is, its expensive!

            Besides, if following Huawei's trend of making the P series look a lot like an iPhone, I believe the new Mate series will not do the same. It's been like that ever since and I don't expect Huawei to change that now.

                    And what kind of ugly notch will has the phone? A new one with sharp edges or in the shape of saw teeth? They could add another notch to highlight the area of the sensor on the screen surrounding it with the notch...

                      If that's the case, I expect a 5000 mAh battery inside to compensate for the battery lost every time the phone gets unlocked using the under screen fingerprint sensor with vibration feedback.

                        I believe they will even make that before Samsung.
