Help in Purchase decision - Honor 9 Questions & Answers

As Honor 9 has launched also it confuses me a lot about display size whether to choose Honor 8pro or Honor 9 . Am using a 5.5 inch display fone now...
Just need some good opinions whether I have to go with 5.7 inch Honor 8pro or Smaller 5.2 inch Honor 9 . Will I feel unsatisfied with smaller 5.2 inch Honor 9 ? Rest of the specs am ok with it.
I used to browser net and watch YouTube videos mainly. Please help

I dont think you will be unsatisfied. Am using Huawei P9 and anything look sharper on this screen (compared to OP3) since with full HD but only 5,15" screen, the pixel is more dense, thus looks sharper.

replied to you over at the Honor8Pro page.
the size difference is very obvious on both phones (also, the weight is quite different). so, it does boil down to personal preference. personally, i'd rather have big but heavier phone. like you, i'm into videos and browsing. on top of that, i also do a bit of gaming.
but can't go wrong either way. just whether u wanna enjoy what you are doing on the smaller screen or a bigger one.

I agree it's sharp but the problem is too small ?

yes, it is typical but as a daily user I am saying that as big the screen you will get more joy,the pixel density is very high in honor 8 pro compared to honor9 , good viewing for videos+1 to honor 8 Pro
also the honor 9 is jaw drop gorgeous with a glass finish, if once it falls on ground accidentally glass body R.I.P :crying:
The Honor 8pro with metal body seems very good if it falls from some height it resist :good: .+1 to honor 8 Pro.
The battery back up is so good in honor 8Pro. +1 to honor 8 Pro.
Same processors. same speed.
so lastly, if i am you ,i will definitely go for honor 8 pro, choose wisely if like honor 9 more than honor 8 Pro go for it

Honor 9 vs one plus 5

Guys why did you choose the HONOR 9 over the ONE PLUS 5 honestly?

Because O+5 is big and ugly, the H9 has usable size and f**king beautiful.
My reasons
1. Op5 costs $100 more and I'm on a tight budget
2. Op5 size too big for 1 handed use, higher risk of accidental fall
3. Op5 does not have sd card slot
went for the H9 over the OP5, because of the upside down display, lack of microSD expansion, and it's £100 more.

How is your experience now ? Also which was your previous phone ?
Personally I'd rather go with the Honor 9 as the One Plus 5 runs on Qualcomm's Snapdragon range of SOC. Which have a bad habit of overheating pretty easily.
better 5 'inches beautiful honor 9
In my case it was only because of screen/phone size. I came from OP3 and I prefer OxygenOS without doubts but the size of the device was stronger on my decision.
Same here. Price range and of course the size of the phone and the very fast fingerprint sensor.
I would go with honor 9 bexoz of its beautiful design...

Pro or non-pro?

That is the question.

Non pro. Easy choice.
Deciding factors:
1. 16:9 aspect ratio;
2. High screen to body ratio with large usable screen area because of option to not use on screen buttons which would otherwise eat one line from the screen; <—this one is actually the most important one since mate 10 gets overlooked, since its seems that its “just” 5.9” but its fckin 5.9” in 16:9+no buttons. It much more usable screen than sausage style note8,s8 pluses..
3. Headphone jack;
4. Expandable storage.
Pro is just plain stupid and a failed model IMO. Even if you do like the 18:9 aspect ratio, mate 10 pro imo sits in third place in such category behind s8+ and v30 (even with that amoled lottery)

I also have a very close opinion.
But I'm a bit worried about battery life.
Non-pro is qhd and LCD. Probably, it's the most power hungry.
Anyone know how much SoT non-pro versions are getting?

From what I have gathered through youtube (mostly spanish reviews) non pro is getting 4-6 hours of soton heavy usage with one reviewer pointing out that one of the latest updates improved battery life where his ~SOT on mate 10 went from ~4,5h to 5,5-6h of sot. Nothing special, but also not the worst of results.

In comparison, do you know how much are getting the owners of Mate 10 Pro?
Battery life is very important to me.
Your information kind of let me a bit down, cause I heard that Mate 9 owners used to get 7-9h SoT.
Sent from my LG-H990 using Tapatalk
In settings you can change it from QHD to FHD so in the end it will be just like the Mate 9. That should help battery.
I ordered the non Pro version especially as you can hide the on screen navigation buttons and use the fingerprint sensor as gestures.
I voted for (and bought one) non pro because of its 16:9 ratio - screen is just wider and it's very helpfull for internet browsing etc. Looks and feels beautifully.

Where did you buy it from and which model do you have (Huawei Mate 10 ALP-L09, ALP-L29, ALP-AL00) ? How is the scrolling smoothness on it ? Like scrolling smoothness in add full xda when browsing with Chrome? Any choppiness? How is the overall feel in terms of performance, RAM management (app reloads) and so on?
I get the loss of SD card annoyance, though mainly just for ease of initial setup mostly. Headphone jacks never mattered to me though. I do prefer 16:9 but that ship has sailed and you get used to it (2:1) quickly enough. Resolution I don't get, past 1080P (or ratio equivalent) I think it is just a waste, a marketing gimmick that sucks power to no real advantage.
With the non Pro, the look with more traditional bezels and the home button is just dated to the point I can't get past it having used and S8+, Mix 2, and V30 the last several months.
So, all that said, the only real disappointment with the 10 Pro to me is the loss of SD card (and no wireless charging).

Non Pro? Did you have it on QHD or dial it back to FHD?
I am tilted to the pro because form factor is important (fit in my hand and futuristic look) and that amoled display (and even the midnight blue color). External memory not an issue as I currently use a phone which has 128gb internal + extendable slot and yet its almost 70gb free and I have never had to use a memory card for past 1.5 years of using current phone.
Lack of headset Jack not a deal breaker and I'm hoping I can adapt to it. IP67 does not factor in my reason to buy pro. The front FP on regular could tilt me towards standard mate 10 as I have grown tired of lifting phone off my desk. But most reviewers seem to like the rear FP and I have never used a front FP on a big phone, so I have to think again about FP location.
And yea again I'm picky about form factor and build and so I'm not happy that the pro has a 0.7mm larger side bezels and more black border while the standard mate 10 has incredible small side bezels with black border almost not visible. Lol. Also the shriller loud speaker than standard mate 10.
All that said, its obvious that the pro version cannot be declared as a clear better deal and there is lot of give and take going on and the advantages of the pro are not too far apart from standard Mate 10. The Mate 10 pro to me really has to justify itself of the higher price tag (most will buy the 128 gb Mate 10 pro as there is no external memory). So I will only buy after holding both hands on side by side and seeing real advantage with pro version in form and display (and battery life).
Standard Mate 10. The deciding factor for me is LCD vs AMOLED. Yes, AMOLED looks amazing with it's saturation but the risk of burn in and degradation isn't worth it to me. I know the technology has improved over the years but both still occur, sometimes much sooner than expected.
Standard Mate 10 isn't available in most countries...
About battery live: normal use >> almost 2 full days with around 5-6 sot
Heavy use is ending the day with +/-30% left and around 8hours sot.
Non pro.
With the 10 you're basically bezel free anyway, unlike the OP5 and the HTC U11 - that skinny tall stuff is OK at first it seems, until you start using it.
Non-pro.
I prefer the non-pro version as well. I need the sdcard slot and audio jack.
If I change my P10 Plus, it will be for the Mate 10 Pro. As I see QHD as a waist of battery and resources and I like AMOLED and its colours, deep blacks and general battery friendliness. Also ergonomic are big plus to me. 128 GB storage is enough for me, especially since Google Photos backup works great I don't need SD Card. I am going wireless headphones and the headphone jack is not needed for me anymore.
Will wait few months and see how the display is holding and check the long term reviews.
I think I expected more from the camera and the AI thing as it was made a big deal of them and a lot of hype was created...

You do realise you can change it from QHD to FHD in settings and leave it like that for all your use?
Yes. But it is not the same. Read about it here on xda. Native 1080p kills downscaled 2K screen to 1080p as 2K to 1080p pushes the same amount of pixels, you can't change physically the nunber of pixels with downscaling. On 2K screen downscaled to 1080p there is almost no difference in battery life - search with google. Native 1080p amoled just kills 2K LCD on battery (even downscaled to 1080p).

Huawei photo quality vs. Samsung's flagship photo quality

Huawei photo quality vs. Samsung's flagship photo quality
Hello XDA Huawei users,
Is there a Huawei phone that makes better photos than Samsung flagship devices like S8/S8+/Note8 ?
If yes could You tell me the model name?
Haven't you seen any photos of p9, mate 9 and mate 10 series??
It's difficult to answer this question because the quality of both phones is on a level where it is also a matter of taste. I had the Galaxy S8 and I'm now using the mate 10 pro.
In my opinion, the mate 10 pro has the better camera for pictures. Not only the second monochrome camera is a big plus, it also features a portrait mate, which the S8 lacks (but note 8 has it(ok, the s8 has a kind a portrait mode, but it's nowhere near the solution in the note 8)). The ease of use is comparable, both are really quick, and have a fast focus. In general, I like the pictures of the mate more, but sometimes the mate ones look more artificial because of the amount of contrast. in low light the mate preserves more colors and is less noisy, the S8 might be a bit sharper. Both phones could need a bit of hdr+ magic, the quality of googles Pixel phones is in another league.
When it comes to videos the s8 is much better. Mate 10 lacks dynamic range and in 1080p 60fps it looks like 720p.

Yes, definitely. They don't have manual controls so it's less fun. But it's hard to take bad pictures with the pixels.
Depends on what "quality" is for you.
Pixel 2 have the best technical quality while the mate 10 have a more "real camera" feel and controls.
Picture quality (technical) could have been better on mate 10 but overall it's the best cam on the market .

Thanks for your input!
Does it mean that Samsung S8/S8+/Note8 will NOT make better pics than Huawei and Google Pixel 2?
Depends on you personal preference.
Me personally I never liked Samsung camera's
Of those 3 I will rank mate 10 first not because it has the highest quality (it's not bad in any way) but because it is the most "real camera" like in terms of controls and user experience.
Pixel 2 is great but lacks control..
And the portrait mode, seems like most "photographers" don't know the difference between out of focus and bokeh...
None of the are perfect but Note 8's portrait/bokeh look horrible and fake.

I don't know about Samsung flagships but although I like my Mate 10 Pro a lot the camera disappoints me. If you like .. see this:

In my opinion the regular Mate 10 is the best as it still uses 16:9, has the headphone jack, and the front fingerprint sensor for easy unlocking when sitting on your desk at work, plus no worries about any burn in because it uses an LCD panel (which I feel is better than Amoled). Of course it really depends on what you like and/or need! Other than these obvious differences everything else is the same...I think!
I had S7 Edge and bought Mate 10 Pro, for me Mate have great camera in all segments than S7 which is normal. But S7 takes better portrait shots, with Mate when i take pictures of my son his face looks so dark and with a lot of contrast.

Well, You must consider that Your son maybe black.
So which one makes better photos? Cause I'm getting the feeling that you'e not sure
And relax, Your son is the most important person in the world, not a phone.
Why 16:9 is better in Your (all XDA users) opinon? Or isnt?
Mate 10 regular better than Mate 10 Pro? How come?

screen resolution

Hello,
Today I went to a xiaomi shop in France and the paper near the mi a3 says 1080p screen !!!
So I asked a seller why on internet it's 720p.
He said the screen is 1080p but android display only 720p (because on other models a bug happens with android auto and 1080p. Maybe with an update it will become 1080p)
This is very weird. The screen doesn't look like a 1080p
Do you think this is true ?
And why it's written 1080 !?
(Sorry for my bad English ^^)
they probably messed up the product info paper. the explanation they gave you is ridiculous.
mi a3 = mi cc9e with android one.
Okay thank you for your answer.
I'm thinking maybe originally the mi a3 was supposed to be 1080 and they change it very late in the device creation. so they still have paper with 1080p screen ?
(Btw I bought one hoping the community will be big. My 2013 nexus 5 is pretty old ?)
i was hoping we get a rebranded mi cc9 (non e) too. not getting an a3 as it stands.
Actually the 720p screen is not that bad (okay we can see the pixels) the battery life is suppose to be better and games are running better

if you can see the pixels that's bad. the excuse for better battery is just wrong. the 4k battery would easily survive a full day on a 1080p display too. and if they had used the cc9 that has a better graphics for games. no, this is just a bad move from xiaomi, no point to sugar coat it. they should have used the cc9 even if it brought the price over 300-350 or at least upgraded the screen. it still would have been a very good value device. as it is... it's a missed opportunity!

I have a Xiaomi Mi A3, the information you can see the screen pixels are wrong, it is not possible to see the screen pixels since unlike the IPS screen, in AMOLED screen this is not possible. You will not notice so much the difference between an AMOLED screen and an IPS screen. The only difference I noticed is that on Full HD the screen is sharper, but the difference is not that big. If you want to buy, you need not worry about it.

you shouldn't be "OK" with it. in 2019 you should be able to pick the features/things that you want on a phone instead of having to live with bad decisions from xiaomi. we are not sheep having to buy any turd they put out. there are many more manufcturers and many more phone models. if you have any second thoughts about the phone, return it, get your money back and pick something else. it's a free economy, you dont like something, pick something else. the market will bend xiaomi and not the other way around.

There are actually more than a few Xiaomi phones that are cheaper or almost as cheap as the Mi A3. I'm not sure where you got your SAR specs for the Mi A3, but I suppose this can be fixed by using earphones, preferably not Bluetooth (since they have their own radiation issues). Myself I normally don't use my phone as a phone but as an ultraportable tablet, so I'm not too concerned about SAR.
I got the sar here : https://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model-sar/51c75175
And also in the store (you can also see the 1080p resolution here) :

He is saying the truth cuz as all of you know the iPhone 8 currently my social phone is 720p resolution but when I open youtube for most Android phone with 720 p screen they limit at 720p but my iPhone can max out at 1080p the other one is my brother's Xperia 1 all of you must know that it has 4k display but it is not 4k Everytime.when you game on the Xperia it will compress to 720p also when you are multitasking it switch to 1080p the only time when 4k is applied when you web surfing like YouTube or Instagram and when opening the gallery and camera
It's 720p screen and it's ****, no honest person gonna deny that,, that's just not acceptable in 2019.
Xiaomi is a bad company they are putting an end to the mi A line up in favor to their ****ty miui os,,
I got Mi A2 Lite (FHD) and Mi A3 (HD) - i personally cannot see much difference in everyday normal using. There are options for interface and font size, i was allways using custom ones, so the screen is not a problem for me. Mi biggest problem is navigation buttons missing, but thats different topic.

Can't see the difference too, actually i'm prefering Mi A3 display against Mi A2.
I'm loving this phone for now, way better than A2 in all aspects, my only complain is same as yours, the navigation buttons missing

If this is true, big mistake from xiaomi that doesn't announced the entire A3 line at once. Why announces one in July and one in August? This will really frustrated a lot of A3 owners, including me.

I used to think like you, including the bits about how xiaomi is probably trying to make us buy its MIUI products. However, I've since gotten an A3. And I can tell you, the problem is not nearly as bad as everyone made it out to be. It does save battery life, and pixelation is not nearly as noticeable as I thought. I have to look pretty hard to see the difference that the complaint seems moot. Yet OLED is obviously brighter and more vibrant than IPS LCD, and also necessary for the in screen fingerprint sensor. To have all these specifications (OLED, imx586, 4000mah, SD665, sd card, headphone jack, gorilla glass back, etc) at this price point itself is a sincere effort.
You have to check it out yourself before you make your final judgment. I personally am an unlikely convert and I'm loving it. Although I still wouldn't mind having a CC9 a3 pro, I honestly think xiaomi did a really good job with A3, and it's probably a more thoughtfully balanced package if not the best spec'ed in the latest xiaomi lineup, in my opinion.

Can you give me an advice? Which phone has better battery life and camera than s10 li

was determined to buy the s10 lite but I saw some comparison videos on the camera and now I'm changing my mind. The photos look "washed out" compared to other phones in the same price range.
I thought about: xiaomi mi 10 lite, one plus nord, honor 20 pro, huawei p30.
Do you recommend me? (without curved edges)
THANK YOU!!!

S10lite has a great camera
I've previously owned Xiaomi, Huawei and OnePlus devices. All were good in their own way. However, truth be told, the stability, battery life, speed of the S10 Lite is quality, such as are Samsung products overall. I still have my Mi 8 device, which I use for work, it's ok and Miui 12 is cool, but battery life suffered. Huawei, well to be honest it is slightly like a lesser version of Xiaomi, and as Honor is based upon Huawei there are close similarities. OnePlus make good phones. I haven't had the Nord but out of the 2 I'd still lean towards the S10.
I was always someone who liked rooting my device, playing around with kernels etc. You cannot do this with the S10. But, for me, this one time I'm stopped doing it from a practical sense (i.e. it is way too much effort!) I honestly do not miss it! Camera is good, I can still side load everything I want, good storage, great battery life, what's not to like?

Let's not forget that the phone is medium high class and not everything can be perfect.
