Huawei is using different storage, RAM chips in P10, P10 Plus smartphones

Huawei has confirmed that it uses two different types of storage chips in its newest flagship smartphones — P10 and the P10 Plus. The company uses a faster memory chip in some production batches, while other batches come with slower chips, as reported by Android Authority website.
In an official statement, the Chinese tech giant admitted that some handsets have slower memory chips. The P10 duo is said to feature any combination of LPDDR3 or LPDDR4 RAM chips, UFS 2.0 or UFS 2.1 chips, and eMMC 5.1 storage chips.
“Huawei has employed the standard industry practice of sourcing solutions from multiple trusted suppliers to ensure a balance between user experience, quality and sustainable supply,” the company told Android Authority website.
The details came to light when some early adopters started noticing huge gaps between the storage speeds of the P10 and the P10 Plus. Some users who ran AndroBench in their handsets found read speeds ranging from 700MB/s to around 300MB/s.

Huawei has not launched the P10 and P10 Plus in India yet, so it is unclear as to which batch will be hitting the country.Both P10 and P10 Plus were launched at MWC 2017 in February this year.
Running Emotion UI 5.1 based on Android 7.0 Nougat, the key difference between the P10 and P10 Plus is in their screen sizes and the battery capacity. The P10 is backed by a 3,200mah battery, while the P10 Plus comes with a 3,750mAh battery.
