Huawei P10 preview: The lean, green photo machine

It’s not often a phone is revealed in a green colour finish. Or “greenery” to give it full credit. Which, as it so happens, is Pantone’s colour of the year 2017. Huawei is oh so on trend.

Not that offering a green finish is the Huawei P10’s biggest sell (other colours are available too). This 5.1-inch iPhone-a-like has all of the company’s latest smarts on board, including dual camera technology, updated EMUI 5.1 software, the top-spec Kirin 960 processor and a newly front-positioned fingerprint scanner.

Does all that add up to make the Huawei P10 the handset people are going to want to buy in 2017?
