Also if bootloader unlocking will be able to be enabled.

Funny 12/4 has come and gone and yet still no L29 8GB/256GB as claimed, anyone hear anything about this? Cause I hear crickets at the moment. Only one place claimed 12/4 as a release date but nothing.

Also if the EVR-L09 follows previous phones, it seems L09 stands for Single Sim phones.

I need the international version with

Thats because i write fail [emoji1303]

Was Google good M20X prices and was really happy when i saw the price of this, so much so i was blind for the missing X lol.

But cant delete the post u know.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Rafajafa:
Hi guys I've been reading, and has been mentioned that this one sold here:

https://www.mediamarkt.de/de/produc...blue-dual-sim-2500372.html?ga_query=mate 20 x

Probably is the L29 version. I would think so too but there's no confirmation.

I wanted to share with you all, that amazon Spain is selling the same one for 742 euros after you go through the cart.

So, this mediamarkt German unit is the same one than anywhere else in Europe. They named this model as 51093FLR-B but there's no info about it. I just want to buy it at amazon Spain because is cheaper than anywhere in the USA, and I feel more confident about buying it there.

SO!! I guess I suck at googling but I can't find, any video, any pictures, any info about these European models and if they really are, or not, the L29 version. Have any of you know which model is this European one?

Thank you in advance.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] BigDisplay:
Hahaha its so hard for me still waiting, every day im close to hit the button lol.

Im checking every day like stock market or something... damn smartphones [emoji4]
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] stestesteste:
Lol yeah he's right:laugh:
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] takata1:
How did you get that price on amazon spain? When I go through all the checkout, it is still 900 euros.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Rafajafa:
Are you logged in? Did you went all the way to the end, right before click to the final purchase? I still getting the same price of 742,98 euros. Didn't bought the phone yet. Days ago they were indicating a promotional price before launch. Now that info link is gone but the price still way cheaper. Weird that doesn't happen to you.

It comes to USD 897.93. Changes every day depending on exchange. Cheaper and fully trusted, but I don't know which model is it, and I really can't believe that people don't care either. I mean seriously, you have this phone on sale in your country, your continent, and still people care about whatever international version from Hong Kong. Makes absolutely no sense. Very bizarre...
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] takata1:
Nevermind, I guess the webshop automatically deducted VAT as you were ordering to the US. I'm in the EU :)
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Rafajafa:
how much 20 bucks? Is that worth to get it somewhere else and risk your money?

---------- Post added at 13:24 ---------- Previous post was at 13:21 ----------

So if I buy from Spain I don't pay VAT because I live in the US?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Rafajafa:
Agree. I just can't stand that most of these international versions coming from somewhere else, are always opened by the sellers or someone in between to either check if it works or to include something else in the box. I rather pay extra for an unopened box from factory. I am an unboxing freak...

Asked these sellers on amazon USA, "so the phone is sealed?" "Yeah man, it comes with two circular stickers at the bottom, you can't tamper with it...." Ok man that's not even the real factory seal from Huawei....
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Rafajafa:
There are two more expensive shipping options on the screenshot where amazon takes care of all the taxes and duties. That's the amazon awesomeness. And it is amazing how fast it comes, not even a week. Last time I got my super nes classic in 3 days! I guess amazon packages don't sit around at customs.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jgrabner1970:
yes, and for any other item from any other EU country. VAT is only for local suckers. even when you buy something in an EU store like on vacation, you can get a refund at the border (airport) when you leave the EU. anyway, that clears it up, the price is ex-VAT.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Rafajafa:
Sorry for wasting everybody's time then and thank you for explaining.

Now I just need some European buyer to show which model are they selling in Europe, so I can buy this thing already. I can't believe that even Huawei Spain or Germany can't answer this simple question.

On paper it looks good, they have 24months warranty and a good return policy. If I wanted to get the midnight blue I'd have maybe bought from them, only problem no M-pen or Nano memory card.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] NZtechfreak:
Thinking of getting from Splendor, looks like a few here have already? Do they have the NM cards in stock? Would be wanting to grab one at the same time.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Rafajafa:
I understand. I was amazed to find I don't have to pay European taxes, Now I will be checking before making big purchases, since this means that in some cases could be cheaper buying from Europe. But this only works with products sold by amazon, not if the product is sold by a seller.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] CCJ22:
I don't understand the difference.

Why does everyone wish for the EVR-L29?

I am in the United States.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Rafajafa:
Because the Chinese version is pure dictatorial evil, you'll not be able to even use google services properly. The Chinese version violates our first amendment rights hehe. But who doesn't I ask myself these safe space snowflake days...
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] BigDisplay:
Not everyone, i think most ppl buy the Chinese version because the price is much lower.

I had many Chinese rom phones in my life and 99% of them is nearly as the global versions.

But if u want Google assistant and a few other things to work 100% correct, u have to pick the Hong Kong/international version for sure.

For me it doesn't matter, i dont use Google assistant at all. [emoji1303]

And then again if u root ur phones its best with the Chinese version so far.

I can't tell u why, i never try root a phone... don't have the nerves [emoji23]

I am wanting to buy the Evr-l29 128 version for me in the UK without being stung by customs or long dispatch times. There is a Norwegian seller who seems to be pretty good value anyone bought from him.

OK. Ordered Chinese 8/256 version with M Pen from Splendor Monday night. Arrived today via Fed Ex. $187CND Customs and Duty. With the duty, was around $80 more than ordering from Wonda as they under value it for declaration and ship DHL so no customs are charged. But they are experiencing mad delays. The stupid fast and no hassle Delivery from Splendor makes that negligible to me. I'm in Canada BTW.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] T i h o r:
Glad to hear you had also had a good experience. In the grand scheme of things when you're pay this much for a phone, what's an extra $40 or $50 to get in a couple days vs a few weeks?

Anyone who is on the fence, I highly recommend you go through Splendor!

Did your phone arrived in Factory Sealed BOX ( Original Plastic Foil from Huawei ) ? :eek:

I am interested to purchase the Mate 20 X but i'm in desperate need to be Original Factory Sealed from Huawei, not resealed by the Chinese Seller after they install Google PlayStore and test the deice before sending it.

Do any of you guys received Factory Sealed BOX and where did you buy it ? I bought mine on Aliexpress , but the Seller Have resealed the BOX by himself... :(

Anyone having auto-dimming issue? Auto brightness is off, also sunlight readability is off. Still after switching to soma apps like Chrome etc, the screen automatically dims/darkens. Then after returning to home screen it goes back to the normal level. EVR-L29

Nope. I like the Auto Brightness on this phone. No issues. But I'm on the Superior Chinese model. Lol
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] takata1:
That's the point. Auto brightness works fine and it doesn't dim when switching apps. The issue is that when auto brightness is OFF, it dims with certain apps. As a temporary fix I'm using auto brightness, much less annoying than the dimming.

Btw, my Honor note 10 had the same problem the first 4 weeks around, then it disappear.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] bobo have a dream:
As far as I know, the system brightness adjustment authority is open to third-party applications. Some applications (such as video player, reader, etc.) can control the brightness. The brightness may change when exiting or entering these applications.

Any way to turn this off? App permissions? I checked but didn't find specific stuff regarding screen brightness.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] filip_pine:
Depends which kind of Seal... Original Huawei Factory Sealed or Seller Resealed the BOX ? There is a big diference between these 2 things... i'm looking for Huawei Factory Sealed BOX... this way i know no one use the phone or touch it after it left the Huawei production line... I don't see any point in having my phone opened by someone else... I want to be the first person who open what i bought... I know, i'm a little bit crazy, but hey, that's me :silly:

Be careful what you wish for. When your getting something from Overseas. Makes more sense someone checks it out before you get it. Makes sure it works and comes with proper plugs.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] filip_pine:
I just bought another 2 units ( both of them AL-00 ) as i like the China Version more than L29 due to more stable ROM and frequently updates. ( i dont mind the bloatware apk's since i will remove them with Root and System App Remover ).

I order one of them from WondaMobile ( they accept Paypal as well ) and another one on Aliexpress

I'm obsessed with these phones... i always wanted big screen, good camera, Stereo Speakers, Infrared, Memory Card Slot :D

I ask both sellers to send me Orginal Huawei Sealed BOX with no PlayStore... i'll wait to see what i will receive, i'll keep you informed.

Hmm... i have doubts about that DH Gate product... 64GB Memory, Black Color ? Mate 20 X ? :eek::eek:
