Telecoms market leader MTN Ghana, in partnership with Huawei Technologies Ghana, have launched a new high-end 4G smartphone, Huawei Mate 9 with technological features to ensure flawless operation.

A statement from MTN said users of Huawei Mate 9 stand to benefit from a user-friendly interface and a high capacity 4000mAh battery that can last for two days.

It comes with a 20 mega pixel and 12 mega pixel RGB cameras famed as the most prestigious camera technology till date.

In fulfillment of its agenda to lead the delivery of a bold new digital world, MTN Ghana is offering exciting packages to individuals who purchase the Huawei Mate 9 from MTN data stores across the country.

"Customers who buy the Huawei Mate 9 will receive 2.5GB of data for six months and a free screen replacement in case of damage within three months of purchase," the statement said.

Chief Marketing Officer of MTN Ghana, Asher Kahn was quoted as saying “I am happy to say that the launch of MTN 4G services has enabled many people in Ghana to access the internet faster, download photos more easily, upload music, stream videos, participate in video conferences and generally enjoy the digital age better."

He, however, noted that without access to the right mobile devices, it would be difficult to enjoy all these benefits, and it was for that reason MTN continues to partner Original Equipment Manufacturers to develop phones that the average Ghanaian can afford.

Kahn said last year MTN invested $96 million dollars in network expansion and a further $18 million to roll out 4G LTE across the country, adding that the company plans to continually invest in its network, to provide value to its subscribers.

He said MTN Ghana has been committed to investing in the latest technologies while partnering OEMs to bring exceptional mobile telephony experience to its numerous subscribers.

"For instance, the telecommunication giant recently partnered with Africa Movies on the Go (AMGO) LLC to launch the AMGO App, a video-on-demand solution that allows users to conveniently stream and download the most current African movies on their mobile smartphones," he said.

Head, West Africa Multiple Countries Device Department at Huawei Technologies, Long Feing reiterated Huawei Mate 9’s special features which won nine prestigious awards at the CES Innovation Awards 2017.

He said: “In today’s fast-paced business world, business leaders would agree with me that an ideal smartphone should be one that offers a lighting speed performance as well as a long-lasting battery that requires minimum charging time to meet their very busy schedules,” he said. “I am pleased to say that the all-new Mate 9 offers all that and more.”
