    The Huawei Mate 8 will be launched in Kenya early next week (Tuesday). The company has already sent out media invites to the event that will see the official introduction of this phone into the country. This will be the first Huawei smartphone to be launched in Kenya this year.

    The Huawei Mate 8 was launched globally last month at CES 2016 and is the latest phablet from the company.

    The Huawei Mate 8 is targeting the high end users in Kenya who prefer premium devices with flagship specs. According to Mark Hemaobin, Huawei Devices Country Director “Professional smart phone users have a lack of choice when it comes to devices that meet their requirements. We have tried to keep this in mind when positioning the Mate 8. It is perfectly suited to business users with its large battery, super-efficient rapid charging, large screen and additional security features. Work life balance and increased productivity is what we wish for all our mate users.”

    This will not be the only high end smartphone from Huawei to be launched in Kenya this year. the company has plans to bring other high end devices as the year goes on.
