What sort of plug is this??!

[donalgodon]

I bought a Mate 10 and it came with a plug I've never seen before. 

Is this UK? What do I need to adapt this to 110V US?

Look for UK to US plug.

German plug is the best.

this is a UK 220V plug.
you need to pull up the middle thing. its retracted.
you don't just need an adapter, but a converter

Honestly it would probably easier to just get a different charger for the phone.

On the charger, it reads " input100-240V" so won't it work at 110 if  I just use an adapter?

It will work with just an adaptor fine.

where did you buy your Mate 10 from? If you bought it in the US you should have gotten an US plug, as the Mate 10 is available from amazon and few other places in the US. If you imported it, then yeah, it's normal.

 

If purchased in the US and you were expecting a US plug, complain to the seller. If imported, well, this is a UK plug, not EU-mainland. You need to get an adapter OR just buy a USB charger, like this:

 

https://www.amazon.com/Huawei-4-5V5A-SuperCharge-Adapter-USB-C/dp/B06WWPBM1L/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1523998429&sr=8-4&keywords=huawei+charger

 

Any USB charger will do though.

 

edit: if you bought this mate 10 in the US from a US seller new, you should contact him & try to return it. Huawei won't give you warranty over this product as it is supposed to be reserved to the UK market and therefore no warranty for the US.

I got it on eBay for a good price in a sealed box. I'm okay with just getting an adapter. I just wanted a little confirmation first.

I see. Then yeah, either adapter or just any USB charger out there. Enjoy the phone

It's a UK type G plug.. in all honesty it's probably easier and simpler just to buy a new USB charger instead of an adapter.

I decided to go with an adapter. I found one that was good quality for around 7 dollars and if I did just get a new charger (unless it was an expensive factory replacement) , I'd lose the Supercharge feature, which is a big thing for me.
