Thought it's a good time to get this started. Booked my mate 20 pro today. Disappointed to see that they're offering just one colour (twilight) with the headphones offer. They're slated to launch the green as well tomorrow but no guarantees on the headphones then. Why Huawei? This is your big launch of Mate in India. Not the best way to go about it. Please don't take your India users for granted.
Will post if I notice anything unusual in the phone (eg green screen)
Will be interesting to see if there will still be green display issues. Or will they release only BOE screens

Definitely only BOE since it's all from the new batch
Cant be sure of all BOE, can BOE internationally supply those many screens? If they could then why enlist two vendors in the first place ?
Mate 20 pro is currently unavailable on Amazon.in.
Not sure if its out of stock or some other issue.
No green screen in mine. All seems to be ok. Also heard new update is out where jello effect in video is gone. Haven't got the update yet.
BTW, sennheisers came in peti pack condition. Ripe for sale!

LG or BOE display? Waiting for mine, should arrive by the 10th
So far in Chennai, Croma has pushed back the delivery date from the 11th to 20th. Possible batch change for the displays?
Got mine 2 days back. Screen is by BOE. Have not noticed any glue gate issue.
Phone is blazing fast. But I don't understand the hype created over the camera. Its average to say the least. Or may be i need to explore more.
Anyone got the latest emui update. Apparently jello effect in 4k recording is fixed.
Is Jio working fine on Mate 20 Pro?

Yes it works perfectly fine
If you guys are getting a screen protector maybe post a link here if you like it? And what case are you getting if you are?
I'm thinking of the UAG monarch and a Huawei officialll flip case
Delivered on 7th. Have BOE Display. No screen issues so far.
Can anyone suggest good screen protector/film? Tempered glasses doesn't seem to fit well on the edges.
Tried True Desire Tempered glass (apparently better reviews on amazon.in) but edges won't stick. Seller advice is to apply oil on the edges which is provided in the box. For 799 bucks this is not even half decent screen protector.
Had ordered Spigen case which is decent enough but Ringke is available now. So returned the Spigen & waiting for the Ringke Fusion X.
How is the overall response to mate 20 pro in India.. Is it a hit or a miss by huawei?

The phone is from a brand that is not known in India as well as Apple or Samsung. This is currently the best phone on the market though. If you want to use the best hardware then you could say the phone is a hit. If you want to buy based on how cool you want to look to your friends then buy an iphone x. The brand is a miss.
Its a hit in Dubai
Users on Twitter and Amazon have the glue gate issue doesn't seem as widespread but it's still not entirely fixed by Huawei India ...
Lack of good screen guard & case availability is depressing.
UV glue tempered glass are available on aliexpress, rating is good. Anyone have experience in importing these?
Latest emui update. This does not resolve the jello effect for 4k video recording. Still waiting for that update.

For those of you who've replaced your screens either DIY or via LG warranty replacement...please post how your screen quality and viewing angles compare to the original LCD.
I'll start...
1. On my Current G2, I had a perfect screen. Perfect viewing angles and excellent image quality with no defects
2. Ebay Replacement screen #1 had dead pixels and Mira lines.
3. Ebay replacement screen # 2 had horrible color. Almost black and white
4. Amazon replacement screen has great color & image quality but lesser degree of viewing angles.
It's hard to explain but easy to compare to other G2s and phones when you compare side by side.
After all these screen swaps in the last couple months I've decided to keep this screen and use the phone as is.
How does your replacement screen compare to the original one?
I got LG performed a "total refurbished" when I dropped and shattered my screen.
It came back and looked like new, no difference to the original.
After a shattered screen i got it replaced.two months waoting time.now have jdi panel but brightness is very low and have lots of screen bleed around the edges.the repairman did not do a good job but the panel itself is of lower quality.color and contrast ok but luminosity is about 70%of the original...not happy but no money for yet another panel...
Conclusion:dont drop the phone...
After having touch screen issues on my phone (no-touch zone, ghost touches), I bought a replacement screen for my D800 off eBay.
Got it replaced and so far, the quality (colours, brightness, touch accuracy) is very good. I'd say the screen is slightly more yellow than my original screen but it's by no means an issue.
The screen I got for my "new" Z3, is full of problems. It has press marks(areas on the screen which appear brighter/whiter) and the screen "flickers" on high brightness. My friend can't see it well, but I can very clearly see the screen going bright->dark->bright->dark slightly and very quickly.
Dropped mine and got it replaced at a cheap place in Bangkok.
Colours are the same, viewing angles are not as good, but
those doesn't matter to me.
Been 2 months dropped phone again, screen shattert again...
Biggest supprise: Touch is still working perfectly! Seems like the cheap replacement screen doesn't have the NoGap technology like the original ones haha. Seems like win win to me!

Thanks for the responses guys and sorry to hear about your screens.
Made a new poll. Please participate.
I'm trying to make a case that there are different versions of LCD panels made by different manufacturers.
They don't advertise which is which but we're starting to notice now that we're having out screens replaced.
I replaced my LG D800 screen with one from Amazon and the colors are slightly darker but other than that no big deal. I didn't do a good job with the replacement so there is definite light bleed on the edges and after four months of using it im getting ghost touches if I press on the lower portion of the screen. Don't think it's quite worth the $80 replacement to try again and get it right, just something I'll deal with until a new phone comes out and I can get it replaced all together.
Similar experience to laboratik except the repair was done at LG so the workmanship is good. But it is jdi panel and darker than the original.
Thank you guys for the responses. This thread should be helpful to others in our same situation.
The sad fact is that the market is flooded with aftermarket screens made by who knows.
Just compared my screen with the S6 Edge and have to say I'm very impressed with the image and color on this replacement screen however that's where the buck stops.
The reduced viewing angles are tolerable at best. I'd hate to remove this replacement screen send it back all over again...roll, dice pray I get a perfect match but unless I'm removing it from a G2 myself I'm starting to believe it's not likely it'll happen.
Check out this review on Amazon re: the screen I have.
This guy nails my current situation

I got a few of them from eBay, I can link you the buyer if you want, I've sold them and they are close to OEM, they only have one MAJOR flaw, they are thicker. While you'd think this wouldn't be an issue, they are thick enough to not be able to slip into most cases, so it's annoying.
http://www.ebay.com/usr/wholesaleblimited?_trksid=p2053788.m1543.l2754
That's the ebay seller I use for replacement parts.
So far the screens have been OEM quality( G2, GPro, AHD) I've bought a few from there, and they all have great quality, except for the thickness, they all seem to be thicker, this is probably due to it not being real gorilla glass, and just a knock off lol.
it looks like my replacement screen for LG service center has slightly lower sunlight legibility than original,
I dont know which panel is this, but brightness is reduced

After removing the Amazon screen and reinstalling the original one, I notice the Amazon one has slightly higher ppi/contrast with a smoother looking picture....WTH
Now if I can have that with the original screen's viewing angles I'd be golden....
Oh well....time to pack it back and return it back...will report back shortly

That one almost certainly looks like it will be a low quality replacement you will be unhappy with.
My personal opinion, if you want a full frame screen replacement....at least get one with the LG logo.
Saw one on ebay for 59.00 last night. The seller claimed to test them before they ship.

My shipment status says expected delivery Wed, Apr 15. Hope there are no more delays. Will keep the thread posted on how the screen performs.
My 6P arrived defective today *UPDATE* perfect replacement received < 24 hrs later
*UPDATE*
Google overnighted a replacement unit i received yesterday and all is good. was just one of the unlucky ones!
The screen was not installed correctly. it is pushed too far to the bottom leaving a large gap in between the top of the black plastic and the metal frame. at the bottom the screen is pushed up over the metal lip and no flush with the device.
now i wait until next week to get my replacement...hopefully
That's a real bummer [emoji20]

Not true bro, there's always a finite number of devices in every release that have had issues. Happens every time. Even after the initial batches.
Got my Nexus 6P and starting to think that there is somthing wrong with the colour? like the top half is more pinkish and the bottom half is white...
attached a picture, not sure its the greatest example
Yeah, I agree with the first/early batch statements. My Nexus 6 was a fi3st batch and had burn in issues and my LG G4 is a first batch and has the infamous touchscreen issues.
I promised myself to fight off impatience and never buy a phone on release again. I'll wait a month or two so they can work out any possible kinks.
First batches can be more problematic than later ones, but it's not always the case (as Tony_stark said earlier). In my 1st day Nexus experience:
N4 (x2 16gb), perfect;
N5 (x5, 16gb & 32gb) 4 perfect, 1 with dodgy charger, replacement perfect (and no button issues on any, although the lower volume than later ones was noticeable, errrrm... later, once they were released);
N7 (x1 16gb) faulty with screen lift like yours, the replacement the same, 2nd replacement perfect.
N7 (2013, x1 16gb) perfect.
Early adopters are guinea pigs, and our issues and feedback do add to the later device. It doesn't mean the first batches are bad, just more likely to show issues, in part due to the relatively small numbers of very focused buyers.
Still, it's always unsettling to receive one that's not perfect. Hope your replacement is perfect!
It's been a month from the official release of the Huawei flagship. A month that is marked by these disturbing faults to the display unit, fingerprint or face unlock.
The above issues are have been clearly reported to the initial batches of September and October.
It should be really useful if we could register all defects noted in devices from November batch and on.
Please state the manufacturing date of the device if this is from November and on, how many days you have used your device and what defect - if any - you have spotted.
I kindly request you don't make any other comment.
BOE 18B05. Have only had it since today at 11am. Direct replacement from Huawei.
BOE 18B05. No problems whatsoever.
boe 18b08 no issues
LG - 18B09
Got the issue on day one of my exchange from Vodafone, 22nd Nov.
BOE 18B05 which I've had for about 12 days now. Screen still hulk free.
you've mentioned batches grouped by month?
Presumably that is a reference to shipping batches which isn't necessarily the same thing as a build month/batch which is what you need to be accurate as a carrier could be sitting on "old" stock and only just shipping it
I got one direct from Huawei. Its a L29c model sn 18b08 boe screen, so far so good
Before that I had to LG screen in a L09 model so not sure why Huawei swapped it.
LG screen 18B09 Vodafone UK with hulk screen.
BOE 18B05, no problems for 1 week now.
First phone was early LG one, just got replacement from VF UK with serial 18B05 and BOE screen, so far so good.
I have an 18B09 from UK O2 - screen is BOE with no issues...
However the actual screen being scratched is ridiculous. I had nothing on my previous devices, however this BOE specific one is scratching all over the front screen. It's in a bad state after only a few days - not sure how either....

I had my previous iPhone for around 3 years and there weren't scratches like this. Even my previous Mate 20 Pros with the LG screens were fine over the 4 or so weeks I had them.

The OLED panel shouldn't have any bearing on scratch resistance, since the glass panel is likely a separate component common to both panel variants. My GS5 is still scratch-free after 4 years. The pitiful lack of RAM running current apps, on the other hand.....
18A31,BOE screen,no issues after 1 week of use.

Did you get the replacement for a different model?
First day was no problem with screen, saw it was LG... was a bit worried but my batch number didn't match to anyone who had the issue that I could find and BAM today... green screen of hell. ****ing hulk in matter of hours. Returning tomorrow and choosing different brand, from instagram + snapchat problems to camera having poor software but good hardware and now gluegate, there is no reasons phones with faulty screens are still being sold and people have to change 3-4 times to get a BOE one. Shame on Huawei.

Had an 18B02 LG, worst I've had yet. Green discolouration around all edges and glow leaking up the bottom half of the screen.
Hi all,
For the last few months I've been waiting to upgrade my phone and I came to the conclusion that the mate 20 pro offer the best in term of price/value compared to P30 pro and S10/S10+.
I contacted an official Huawei retailer where I live and he told me the mate 20 pro is finally available with official warranty, I asked him about the screen gluegate issue and he told me many units were sold and there was no issues.
With that being said should I go for it and assume the newer batches don't have this issue?
In worst case scenario the screen will be replaced for free under warranty.
I purchased my Mate 20 Pro about a month and a half ago, and I've overall been very pleased with the device. I, too, bought the phone because it has everything I'm looking for in a smartphone at an affordable price.
Many have sung the praises of this phone and I concur. Overall, it's great. Battery performance amazing, the screen is beautiful to look at and the phone is snappy in every regard. I enjoy the stereo speakers of the phone, they're loud, clear and have some underlying bass, but they do not get as loud as the S9/S10 speakers. The earpiece is also significantly weaker than the bottom-firing one, delivering the high tones whereas the bottom-firing speaker has both louder volume and carries the bass.
The battery life is consistent and gets me around 7-8 hours of SOT with about 2 hours of off-screen Youtube Vanced playback. That's absolutely stellar. And when you eventually run out of battery after a long day or two, the supercharge charges the phone incredibly quickly, but the phone gets really warm in the process.
The optical fingerprint reader is good most of the time, but really finnicky at other times. I set up the 3D face unlock and never looked back, but having both options for unlocking the device makes it incredibly convenient.
The ergonomics of the device are great as well. The placement of the buttons is perfect, the phone feels good in the hand - and it's quite nice to look at as well.
At 750 USD which was the price I got the phone for, I'd say it's a great deal - especially when a S10+ is about 1000 USD. You aren't giving up much in terms of quality (screen and speaker quality) but you'll get amazing battery life in return and $250 to spend on whatever else you like.
Thanks a lot for the feedback
Well in terms of price it's around the S10E but way cheaper than S10+, I was thinking the E was my safest option but I'd give up a lot compared to mate 20 pro so the E is out of the way for me.
I assume u didn't face any problems regarding the screen green tint which is my biggest concern.
I think I'll go for the mate 20 pro and hope for the best, wish me luck.
I forgot to mention that only the exynos varient is available in my region for the S10 series. So I guess that's one more reason to get the mate 20.
I've had my Mate 20 Pro for about 3.5 weeks now and it's had absolutely no screen or build quality issues. If you go for the Twilight version, get a case as it's slippery without.

I think i'm gonna get the black version, and i'm gonna buy a case either way.
I bough mine 2 weeks ago, new, a black unit with BOE (free app device info hw can tell you whether the screen is BOE or LG, supposedly LG screens are prone to having issues, personally, I think that was just early units) display for $690 on ebay. Very happy with the phone. Followed the guide to uninstall hisearch. Phone has updated since but hisearch didn't come back, it was so annoying trying to swipe down the notifications and accidentally triggering hisearch. Unlike my previous phones, typical cases don't seem to protect the screen well enough. I bought the official flip case (the one with the small window on the front cover) because I'm worried about the edges of the screen, regular cases don't seem to have a lip big enough to protect them well. It's a little inconvenient but worth the trade off IMO. It's a popular phone so there is a decent case selection and reviews of cases are easy to find.
If I could unlock the bootloader and root it, it would be perfect but even as is, it's a great phone. If you use a smartwatch, be prepared to dig deep into battery settings to enable push notifications. The supercharger works great but I prefer just regular charging. I haven't seen any proof that supercharging is bad, it's just my reasoning to charge it slower to preserve the great battery life in the long term. I don't change phones often so seeing how well newest gen cameras perform was a bit of a surprise.
My Z2 fell down from a 1 storey height last day . The phone is still usable but the screen is cracked on the top right corner. The touch is not working on that side. I can't swipe down the quick settings from there. There's a little touch issue at the bottom right side also I think. And the back glass is almost completely broken. I had applied a carbon fiber sticker on the back earlier so the glass is still there fixed.
Also the fingerprint scanner is not working. There's a scratch there too. But the press function of that button is working. The shape of the outer frame of the phone is changed a little bit.
I just reset everything again and flashed AOSiP-9. Except the fingerprint and top and bottom right touch everything is working I think. I'm posting this thread from my phone so it is still usable.
I want to know how much will it cost for the front screen, back glass and a new fingerprint sensor? I went to the nearby Lenovo service center but none of these parts are available there.
Just found that the it'll cost between 2500-3000 for all these parts. The screen is also broken a little bit. So both the touch and screen should be replaced.

I bought a pre-owned OnePlus 7T yesterday after long-time research. It has almost everything I like. The only issue is that the lack of custom ROM development support but I'm waiting.
Meanwhile the back camera of my Z2 too also stopped working. I replaced the fingerprint scanner and the touchscreen myself with another dead Z2's parts. All the area is now touchable but sometimes it freezes too much. Now I can use the Z2 almost okay, so I'm still using it as my daily device with AOSiP-9. I decided to use as long it can run without any serious issues.

I bought a pre-owned OnePlus 7T yesterday after long-time research. It has almost everything I like. The only issue is that the lack of custom ROM development support but I'm waiting.

I paid ₹ 30k. It has extra accidental and screen protection worth around ₹2000. The first owner bought it in October. If you are buying a pre-owned you should not spend more than 31k even it has extra protection as it is available in Amazon for around 35k, and with credit or debit card you can almost save around 1.5k to 2k. But please check Amazon for the card offers.
I chose 7T over 7 Pro and K20 Pro because of some personal reasons. But I recommend if you are upgrading from Z2 and you can afford, please buy this as it has almost all a flagship needed and doesn't have any extra gimmicks like motorized pop-up camera. Because only a few phones have this motorized type of cameras and the current trend is having a punched hole camera. The notch is a way ahead of this punched holes because you don't feel that much distracted with notches. I tried latest Samsung phones and I felt too irritated with those ugly punched holes. A few upcoming mid-range phones are coming with these as per some news. Anyways these are just my personal reasons.
I'm quoting my own text that I replied to someone.
"Yes bro, 7T has almost everything which I wanted and lacks only a very few things. Like it has a
+ non-popup camera so faster face unlocking
+ 90Hz of course
+ stereo speakers
+ 3 cameras with a wider one and now with a super-macro mode
+ OIS
+ less weight compared to 7 Pro
+ 855+
and pretty much everything a flagship needs. The only thing I miss is the QHD display. I have a VR/AR device so I wanted to use it for watching movies like in a theatre. The QHD display has less pixelated view compared to fHD for this use. But compared to other specs it is not a deal."
