Best smartphone AI for photos, assistants and performance: Huawei P20 Pro, LG G7 ThinQ and Vivo Nex do battle

as declared in We take three AI phones on the market now – the Huawei P20 Pro, LG G7 ThinQ and Vivo Nex – and pit them against each other to see which is truly the smartest in five different areas. The P20 Pro identified objects significantly faster than both the G7 and the Nex (which run AI on a traditional mobile CPU). As I mentioned during my P20 Pro review, this feature is a game-changer for smartphone photography, and the P20 Pro is hands down the best low light shooter here. The P20 Pro, without a dedicated AI-assistant button, had to sit this one out. Prices: Huawei P20 Pro HK$6,780; LG G7 ThinQ HK$5,998; Vivo Nex HK$6,900.

Huawei is gaining on Apple as it aims for 200 million smartphone sales in 2018

According to a statement from Richard Yu Chengdong, chief of Huawei's mobile segment, the Chinese company's 2018 sales passed 100 million on July 18 — which means Huawei's phones are selling faster than ever before. "Previously Huawei reached the 100 million shipments mark on December 22, 2015, October 14, 2016 and September 12, 2017," said Yu during a product launch on Wednesday, July 18. Apple sold 215 million smartphones in 2017, but should Apple's sales decline again in 2018, as they did in 2017, then Huawei could end up surprisingly close. Thankfully for Apple, 2018 has started strong, with sales in the first quarter of 2018 increasing by 2.8 percent over the previous year. But how likely is it that Huawei will be able to achieve sales of 200 million in 2018?

as mentioned in Huawei gets its first smartphone with 8GB of RAM Even the Huawei Porsche phone doesn't have 8GB of RAMHuawei just unveiled the Honor 10 GT, which will be its first smartphone with 8GB of RAM. Its predecessor, the Honor 10, which launched in April for China and in May internationally, only had options for 4GB or 6GB of RAM. Besides the extra RAM, the new smartphone will have the same specs and appearance as the regular Honor 10. The Honor 10 GT has a 5.8-inch, 2280 x 1080 LCD display with a fingerprint sensor on the home button. We've reached out to Huawei to see if the phone may become available elsewhere.
