Huawei is all set to unveil the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro smartphones on October 16 in Berlin, Germany. Huawei recently launched the Kirin 970 SoC, and announced that it would debut on the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro. Huawei also confirmed a dual-camera setup on the Mate 10 through a video teaser. With leaks and rumors making its presence frequently, the first alleged live photo of the Mate 10 has leaked.
Shared by 91mobiles, the photo shows the alleged front panel of the Mate 10 with the display on. The Mate 10 sports a large display with no physical home button, and looks quite similar to its predecessor, the Mate 9. However, the top and bottom bezels on the Mate 10 are visibly thinner. The Huawei branding is also visible on the bottom bezel. This however goes against some reports suggesting a bezel-free display on the Mate 10.
In comparison to the recent CAD-based renders of the Mate 10, the smartphone’s design is different. The concept renders showed the Mate 10 with a physical home button upfront, which is missing on the live image. The renders also revealed the dual cameras placed vertically at the back. The Mate 10 also looks quite bulky with the rear panel slightly curved at the center.

In terms of specifications, the dual-camera setup on the Mate 10 will include a pair of 12-megapixel RGB sensor, and a 20-megapixel monochrome sensor. Carrying on the tradition, the cameras on the Mate 10 will be co-developed with Leica. It’s worth noting that the same dual-camera setup is found on the Mate 9, and the Huawei P10 as well. This information was drawn from the company’s recent teaser of the Mate 10.
