CNBC:
Huawei launched a new flagship smartphone Monday, the first to contain its own artificial intelligence (AI) chip that could help it compete with Apple and Samsung.
The chip is the size of a thumbnail and supports on-device AI. That means the AI functions are processed on the smartphone rather than in the cloud, which could speed up processes.
Wall Street Journal/华尔街日报：
Apple has been losing ground in China to domestic competitors such as Huawei for the past 2½ years. The company needs its latest flagship, the iPhone X, to dazzle Chinese buyers when it officially goes on sale next month.
Huawei is betting with its new Mate 10 flagship that consumers will be swayed by a phone that offers similar features to the iPhone X—including a full-screen OLED display and artificial-intelligence abilities like image recognition—at a slightly lower price.

China's Huawei has unveiled a new line of smartphones that match or even improve on key features offered by Apple or Samsung while undercutting their rivals on price.
Huawei aims to distinguish itself through technological advances that will put it on a level playing field with the most coveted premium-priced devices, helping to boost profitability that has been undermined by heavy discounting in the chase for market share.
