Huawei will launch the near bezel-less mid-range Maimang 6/G10 smartphone in China on September 22. It will also boast quad-camera setup.

The Huawei Mate 10 Lite will be announced alongside Mate 10 and Mate Pro on October 16, and will start shipping a month later. It will be reportedly priced at 379 Euros, which translates to US$ 455 and INR 30,000, and come in Blue, Black and Gold color.
