That's not even related to the section
What is this thread about ?!!
Title is saying Honor 8 , content is saying y511 ,y6 and 5X...
It's not Even related to Q&A section
Strangest part, title says not durable but the whole post mentions nothing about durability.
Is this just to get points?

its not about points and i didnt seriously care about that the basic of the thread is i am user of huawei mobiles the question was about durability of huawei phones they have best specs available to the market the only reason not to vote for huawei mobile is about what you are thinking of getting and what you basically get yeah huawei is nice on specification board but when you get hands on to the cellphones you regret for paying so much for such a phone

Well this is not my opinion on the honor 8, it's a stunningly beautiful phone and the build quality is amazing in my opinion, it's light and feels great.
I have dropped the phone a few times thinking I would have broke the glass back but it has not, it's been fine so I would consider that a win for me.
Did the glass back scratched or not?!
Please delete thread. Nothing to do with section.
I think 2 or 3 years ago, HUAWEI's phone was not very good, but since 2014 and going forward, HUAWEI is getting better and better phones released.
EMUI indeed has so many flaws... reminds me of Samsung with the infamous TouchWiz...
I have the Mate 2, Nexus 6p and Honor 8. There is nothing wrong with the durability of Huawei phones.

Not really. At least not the MTK version of the RN 4.
i wll say almost the same.. i just got my redmi note 4 MTK to replace my samsung Note 3 and at first it sucks at battery. i mean it really suck untill i flash custom rom and that improve. i will say the overall experience will be the same except more bug in the software.
Thx for the replies. I ordered a Note 4 snap dragon anyway. Maybe as a Backup Phone [emoji14]

I'm interested in your experience (replacing Galaxy Note 4). I'm actually thinking of doing the same. How did it work for you? Found any budget suitable replacement? Thanks.
I'm also from galaxy note 4

I think more battery saving, faster charging, 4g frequency support all the operators in my country and also support by active development. But I feel lost the s-pen feature and the heartbeat sensor.

What about performance? Did you notice any changes in day to day performance? e.g. email, multi tasking? What about sound quality via headphones? is it better, worse, the same?
Thank you very much!

I think for better performance on xiaomi especially on graphics performance, but for image quality is still good samsung because of resolution and amoled screen. For multitasking I think the same is equally fast and for the sound quality is definitely better on xiaomi as it supports hi-res audio

No they are not equally fast in multitasking. RN4 beats GN4 in multitasking.
Don't replace it. I've just ordered a Xiaomi as a backup phone for my galaxy note 4. Galaxy Note 4 is the best phone I've ever had. My galaxy still runs on kitkat. If your phone is still well, there's no reason to replace it. Trust me. Best whishes
The battery is better. That's it.

This. If a phone is working there's no need to replace, keep it as a spare or repurpose it. My Galaxy Note 1 is now an alarm + dashcam

I really appreciate your answer. Thank you for that.
I really like GS4 - agree with your assessment. But some things do nag me starting with battery (I have a replacement battery but there are times when both batteries during one day are not sufficient), some lag in processing (managing email, office, onenote) and lack of fingerprint security (security is a big issue for me). All in all, if I could keep size and screen and improve all other points I would switch. But only if I could get a hi-res (sound) replacement (music is a big deal for me) at a "friendly" budget (i.e. non flagship prices).
I've considered MI Max but read some complaints about sound. Redmi Note 4 is listed in some forums as a mini-Mi Max and that was the reason I was considering it. Not anymore thanks to you
Hello everyone... Need some advice about which one of these 3 to purchase. Just can't decide on whether I should go for a wicked dual camera or the power of a SD 820. Im not a heavy gamer but I do want a reliable phone. Is UMIDIGI a good brand? On paper it looks pretty decent, really confused, and I only have a a budget of $350 Australian. Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Hi, is this still an open thread or did you buy that already?
I got a leeco max 2 here and a redmi note tree. For daily use i take the leeco, because of his power, the 21MP Camera, which i use in JPG/RAW mode for taking amazing shots. And with cuoco92's rom which i use a longer time now, i feel happy to get a 'build in' adblocker (adaway is installed).
I hope this helps.

Hey guys.
I have been a user of an LG G2 for the past three years and I must say it has served me amazingly well. It still functions awesomely but the wear and tear of the years is starting to become more apparent lately, so I'm thinking it's time for a new one.
Since I am not able to buy a flagship phone right now, I have to resort to a budget choice.
So what would be the best phone under 300€? I am based in Europe btw.
Currently I am in between the ZTE Axon 7 Mini, LG G5 SE, P8 Lite 2017, Honor 8 and Honor 6X, but any other suggestions will of course be appreciated.
Since the G2 is such an old phone, I can imagine that any one of these phones will feel like an upgrade in terms of performance, so what I value most right now is 1) the camera and 2) general build quality.
So basically, which is the overall best of the budget phones that has the best camera out of the bunch?
I'm leaning towards the Honor 6X because of its camera. What do you guys think?
Thanks in advance!

Hello Guys,
I’m considering buying Huawei 10 (NOT Pro), but since it’s not officially available in the countries I spend most my time in (Poland and UK), I’ll have to get it from Chinese shop. Having said that, I have my concerns and I’d be glad if you could walk me through them. My apologies if some on those questions were already answered, but some of the feedback I’ve gather from this forum come from the “early days” of this phone and I don’t know if they are still valid. Let’s get to it:
1) Is the system in Polish language? It might be under “(…) and many more languages” but I’d like to know
2) I should be looking for version L29, correct? Are those “international” versions on sites like https://www.giztop.com/huawei-mate-10.html really international, or just Chinese ones with switched software?
3) My current phone is Oneplus 3 – and I admire the simplicity of almost-stock Android. How much off a detour is MIUI in comparison? Will I have to deal with a lot of bloating in the system?
4) Since there won’t be a version for “big” markets like US and UK – could there be any issues with updates? Will Huawei abandon the support for international version anytime soon – speculatively speaking? Or is it possible for them to introduce this phone to US/UK/PL, but later?
5) I’d be taking 4gb 64gb version, but I’ve been using 6gb phone for a while now – will this “downgrade” be visible in daily use?
6) I’ve seen some complaints about the camera. I understand it’s not “perfect”, but right now I’m using oneplus3+g.cam port from Pixel 2 – so I should still experience a bump in quality, right?
7) I want to buy it from this site https://www.giztop.com/huawei-mate-10.html. Is there any reason I should pick a different one/wait?
Thank you for all your future answers, and apologies for a longer post.
Cheers!
I'm in a similar situation. I'm planning to buy from eBay the international version. The sellers there are based in either France or Ireland, they say they give you a year warranty but crucially you have PayPal protection.
I've seen other sites where a minority of phones never turn up or are broken and it's incredibly hard to get the money back.

1 - I don't know for sure but it should be there !
2 - Yes L29 is the version you should look for ! You can get one from here https://www.ebay.fr/itm/NEUF-HUAWEI...234857?hash=item4b2e0e4729:g:41oAAOSwytJaE9rW that's where I got one for my uncle
3 - EMUI is very customised version of Android but with big possibilities for themes so you should be able to make it look as you want
4 - We can't be sure of anything in that domain ^^ I just left Samsung because of giving update slowly... But for sure as the flagship of the brand it should get update faster than others
5 - It'll not. Some may not agree with me but 4gb of Ram is largely enough today !
6 - As I'm not a professionnal I could not tell ^^ but for sure Mate 10 camera is amazing and will only improve with software update improving AI
7 - As I answered on 2, you can get it from dwi on ebay, I've took 2 phones from them (S7 dual sim and Huawei Mate 10)
I live in the UK and I bought the L29 version, it works fine and you can select the system language when you setup the phone. The only issue I found is HiCloud wouldn't work but I rebranded to the L09 version and everything works
To answer your point 6
I'm also using a ported version of the camera app on my previous phone which is a Xiaomi Mix and the phone is notorious for its very poor camera lens.
It surprises me totally what software can achieve where the hardware fails at.
Even on the ****ty camera, the software managed to capture IMO equal or more details as compared to M10 on the pro mode.
So at the end of the day. Your OP3 having a better lens than the Xiaomi Mix should experience probably equal or maybe seeing a 5 to 10% bump in details.
If there's ever a chance that M10 could have the ported camera from Pixel on our phone I'll definitely be a very happy man.
Hi jay. I too live in the UK and planning the buy the L29. Was the re branding just to get the hicloud? Or were there other features?
Thanks

Here you go my friend : https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...amera-5-1-016-174405463-android-apk-download/
It's working on my Mate 10 Pro, imo it gives a little bit less blurriness and the photo is clearer in overall, sadly it lacks some features for our phone
Give us some results about photo quality please

Thanks for the link. I'm not referring to the stock Google camera but the exact one on the pixel phone.
https://www.google.com.sg/amp/s/www...gle-camera-hdr-customization-raw-support/amp/
It is the HDR+ that makes all the difference but sadly Google only enables it for the Pixel phone.
Hey sorry to jack this thread but whats the drawbacks of the Chinese version, bloat ware?? And wouldn't it get updates faster?
Also, wouldn't it be a better idea to buy the AL00.. 128 GB, 6 GB RAM Chinese Mate 10 version if you wanted to keep that 6GB of ram?
I just killed my HTC 10 with water so I'm thinking upgrading to the 6GB ram version would be a better move coming from 4GB. I just wish it wasn't so expensive lol 4GB international version is about $800 CND on ebay..

id like to know this too, also:
so which Huawei Mate 10 Pro 128gb version are you supposed to buy? there's L29 on ebay, L09 on clove uk website. handtec uk HM10P128TG, what's the difference between all of these? dual sim on amazon uk 128gb. L29 on wondamobile international version.
eglobal uk CN version. eglobal prices vary for 128gb version, why is that?
sorry so many questions!
essentially i'd want to root and custom rom, is there really dev support for this, I'm coming from samsung and devs have been a lot etc. im over samsung note series lol...
thx
Does anybody knows any store in USA that have Mate 10? My friend is traveling, at Orlando right now and he will bring to me. I don't know how customs works at USA so I think it's not a good idea to buy at Chinese sites

Well that's the Mate 10 Pro, not the Mate 10, the Pro does not have an SD card slot. I don't know what the CN is but the L29 I had was for the Singapore market, so Huawei Cloud didn't work until I flashed the L09 Firmware

yeah I noticed it's the pro, tbh I wanted the finger scanner on the back. I'm going from a lifetime of sd card to no sd card. feel like I'd need a tutorial on how to go about that and backing up consistently lol....
think I can get away with no SD card
so how come they list an item with no model number?
also can you change the soft key buttons placements? move them into opposite spots etc lol?
