HUAWEI MatePad 12 X (2026) Review
Now might be the right time to upgrade to Huawei’s Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro as the two flagships receive some pretty hefty price cuts. The announcement came via the brand’s Facebook page and website.
The Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro moves to a lower price point with the Mate 10 now reaching a sub-30k price. From a previous price tag of Php 38,990 the Mate 10 Pro is now priced at Php 36,990. The Mate 10, on the other hand, drops to Php 29,990 from Php 32,990, marking its entry into the sub-30k market. Form the looks of it, this might be permanent price cuts as Huawei didn’t include an end date in their announcements.
