Last month, Huawei said that it would showcase a flagship smartphone at CES 2018 in order to officially launch it in the US. We were expecting that flagship handset to be the Android Oreo-based Mate 10 Pro, and now Huawei is confirming this.

Huawei will bring the Mate 10 Pro to CES 2018 presenting it as "the best phone you've never heard of." By you, the company means US customers, as Huawei's smartphones are already quite popular in other regions around the globe, including Asia and Europe.

But is the Mate 10 Pro really the best phone you've never heard of? Well, that's certainly a subjective thing to say. What we do know is that this is a very nice high-end device, and you can take a closer look at it in our Huawei Mate 10 Pro review.

The Mate 10 Pro could be available to buy in the US - via AT&T - as soon as February. Verizon might release the new handset at some point, too. At the moment, we don't have information on the smartphone's price for the US market, but we should find out more about this during Huawei's CES 2018 event next week, on January 9.
