Huawei Mate-S: THE LANGUAGE OF TOUCH

It was Huawei's first launch in Europe. And their Mate-S phone was the first to use haptic technology capable of recognizing human gestures. By gestures, I mean gently waving your hand in front of the screen like a benevolent orchestra conductor, not American Sign Language or angrily giving it the finger. Still, it was something. So we launched it as the first phone to speak the language of touch. Far fetched, you say? Well, hello? We're in advertising.
