Last month, a tipster revealed that Maimang 10 budget smartphone will soon go on sale in China. At the same time, the device appeared on TENAA revealing some of its key specs. A few days later, the handset is now said to hit the shelves this month.
According to 菊厂影业Fans on Weibo, China
Telecom will release the Maimang 10 in December. It will be positioned as a
better version of Maimang 10 SE from earlier this year. For the uninitiated,
the Maimang series of phones are sold exclusively by China Telecom in China.
These handsets are made by Huawei. However, from this year onwards, the HUAWEI
branding has been dropped.
According to TENAA, the upcoming Maimang
10 will be near identical to NZONE S7 Pro, which is yet another China
Telecom-exclusive smartphone developed by Huawei. The device is expected to come
with features like a 6.6-inch HD+ 90Hz punch-hole display, MediaTek Dimensity
720 SoC, 40MP + 20MP + 2MP triple camera setup on the rear, 16MP camera on the
front for selfies and video calls, 4,900mAh battery, 40W fast charging, 8.4mm
thickness, and 179g weight.
Last but not least, the Maimang 10 could
cost around ¥ 2,299 (US$ 361). In other words, the phone offers very little for its
asking price when compared to other smartphones in the segment.
