Huawei's new Mate 9 wants to be a smarter kind of smartphone
Huawei's slice of the worldwide mobile pie isn't as big as it used to be, but hey, at least it keeps getting better at making big phones. We didn't know it would be the last Nexus phone, but the 6P was a solid send-off. Then came the enormous Mate 8, which was incredibly well built (even if the company's EMUI interface sometimes made me want to jam a fork in my eye). With the new Mate 9, however, Huawei is trying to do things a little differently. Case in point: The phone will eventually launch in the US, a first for the company's flagship phablets. And that stuffed-to-the-gills custom interface? It's been streamlined, thanks to Huawei's new user experience chief. Fortunately, the company's smart moves don't seem to end there.
