News: Meet the Huawei Mate SE the 'Plus' Version of the Honor 7X
Huawei's push into the US market has by no means stopped, even despite the recent US government pushback. Huawei has already released their top-notch flagship device from 2017, the Mate 10 Pro, and a couple great budget and midrange devices. Their latest release offers an upgrade to a past release.Earlier in the year, Huawei released the Honor 7X, a great entry-level device that provided an 18:9 display and great battery life for a price where most OEMs make many compromises. With the Huawei Mate SE, almost the entire 7X spec sheet is retained, but with two changes and a slight price increase. While its redundancy is alarming, for those penny-pinching, this device offers worthwhile value for a little bit more than the Honor 7X.
Full Spec SheetOS Version: Android 7.0 Nougat Skin: EMUI 5.1 CPU: Kirin 659 GPU: Mali-T830 MP2 RAM: 4 GB Battery: 3,340 mAh with SuperCharge Storage: 64 GB (expandable via MicroSD) Display Type: LTPS IPS LCD Screen Size: 5.93 inches Resolution: WFHD (2160 x 1080) (407 PPI) Dimensions: 6.16" x 2.96" x 0.30" Rear Camera Resolution: 16 MP + 2 MP Rear Camera Aperture: f/2.9 Rear Camera Pixel Size: 1.25 µm Optical Image Stabilization: No Front Camera Resolution: 8 MP Fingerprint Sensor: Yes (rear) Water Resistance: IP67 Connections: Micro USB 2.0, 3.5 mm headphone jack There is virtually no physical difference between the Huawei Mate SE and Honor 7X.

Display: 18:9 HD LCDLike the Honor 7X, the Huawei Mate SE provides customers an 18:9 5.93" 2160 x 1080 LCD display. The quality of this display is unheard of at its price (more on that later), providing an edge-to-edge viewing experience that only recently appeared on flagship smartphones the year before. Additionally, Huawei didn't compromise on the resolution, providing customers the sweet spot of 1080p, a resolution which balances battery life without compromising the media consumption experience.

Dual Rear Camera: 16MP + 2MPThe Huawei Mate SE uses the same dual camera system from the Honor 7X. It has a 16 MP RGB sensor as the main shooter and a 2 MP monochrome sensor which helps provide detail and clarity. While you can't shoot in black and white with the monochrome sensor directly, its inclusion does improve photography, as it captures detail not possible with one camera. Image via Huawei
4 GB RAM and 64 GB of StorageThe only difference between the Mate SE and the Honor 7X is the addition of more RAM and more storage. RAM is increased by one to 4 GB, putting it on par with most flagship devices, while the storage is doubled. While this may seem like a small change, it does affect overall performance, as more RAM means fewer apps needing to refresh when left in the background. Additionally, more storage means more apps, music, and videos that you can capture and enjoy on your device.
Headphone Jack, IP67 & 3,340 mAh BatteryThe Huawei Mate SE makes no sacrifice with respect to the Honor 7X and retains both the headphone jack and its IP67 rating. Despite many phones dropping the input, the Mate SE will allow you to enjoy your music using either Bluetooth or wired headphones, not just the former. Image by PRISTINE TECH/YouTube As far as the IP67 rating goes, this means the Mate SE is just as water-resistance as the iPhone X and other top-of-the-line flagship phones. Here's a breakdown of what that code means:IP: This stands for "Ingress Protection," which is the rating system for the dust- and water-resistance of electronic devices. 6: The first digit signifies the rating for protection against dust, dirt, and other foreign debris. The highest number is a 6, indicating the Huawei Mate SE is "dustproof." 7: The second digit is the water resistance rating. Using a scale from 1-8, a "7" equates to the Mate SE being able to be fully submerged in water as deep as 1 meter for a period of up to 30 minutes. Finally, the same 3,340 mAh battery is included that, when paired with the Kirin 659, should translate into all day (and more) battery life.
Pricing & AvailabilityThe Huawei Mate SE is currently on several e-commerce websites for $229. There are currently two colors available: Grey and Gold. Similar to the Honor 7X, Huawei is selling this device GSM Unlocked, meaning it will only work on T-Mobile & AT&T networks.Purchase the Huawei Mate SE: Amazon | B&H | Best Buy Image via Amazon The Huawei Mate SE provides something many budget-conscious users don't normally have: Choice. Specifically, the choice to purchase a plus version of (virtually) the same device for a few more dollars. At $229.99, customers can decide whether to save $30 for less RAM and storage with the Honor 7X or pay a little more for a smoother experience. What do you think of the Huawei Mate SE?
