After much speculation about the price of the Huawei Mate 10 Pro, Huawei Philippines has finally confirmed it by sharing a TV Patrol report on its Facebook page.
The TV Patrol report on the Huawei Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro
The report says that the Pro model in the Mate 10 series will cost P38,990 or roughly $770 in the country, just P6,000 ($118) more than the Huawei Mate 10.

That price is definitely lower than those of the flagship devices of the other top global smartphone vendors. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8, Galaxy S8+, and Galaxy S8 sell for P49,990 ($987), P45,990 ($908), and P39,990 ($790), respectively. The Apple iPhone X, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone 8, on the other hand, start at P64,490 ($1,273), P51,490 ($1,017), and P44,990 ($878), respectively.
This makes for a more interesting premium-phone market in the country — one that is a win for us consumers because we now have great top-end choices at varying prices.
