Had a chance to play with the Note 9 yesterday. It's just so small after using the 20X, not sure I'll go in that direction. Wish the OP 7T worked with stylus...;/
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
I had the Note 9 my self to, for around 4-5 days, nice phone indeed, but the the display size sucks.

I hope Note 11+ will be a little better for me... BUT i already knows it will be to small to.

I still miss my Zenfone 3 Ultra a lot, best phone size AND format ever for me.

Its so ****ty im addicted for big phones, its impossible to go down in sizes, i wish i could... So many nice phones out there, but not for me(/us).

I've tried most every flagship and some midrange phones currently available (this includes OP 7, OP 7T, OP 7 PRO, Note 10+, Galaxy A70, Nubia RM 3, Nubia RM 3s, LG V40, Vivo Nex S, Mate 10 (non-pro), Mate 20 (non-pro), Pixel 3 XL, and others). I keep coming back to the Mate 20 X. I still have the 7T, LG V40, and Nubia 3S sitting in a drawer (I really should post them for sale). The Mate 20 X is simply one of the best phones ever created in my opinion. I do wish it was very slightly smaller but all the other phones are too small. I'm on my second 20 X after selling the first one (mistake). The battery life on this thing is just crazy good. Performance is just a tiny bit slower than the latest from OnePlus. I use an alternate launcher and have it loaded with all the Google apps (Phone, Contacts, Clock, Calendar) so I never really see EMUI except in settings. It's awesome!

With all that said, I'm still waiting for a phone that is truly comparable. The only one left I'm curious about trying is the ASUS ROG Phone 2 but I haven't convinced myself to spend the $900 for it yet.

that is some.solid feedback right there, thanks for that :)
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
I wonder if the fact that the 5G mate 20x didn't sell much (I presume), killed the mate 30x?

I mean ... 5g doesn't interest me if my phone dies in a day. I like the longer battery of the mate 20X. It and the camera are the main reasons why I still use this thing.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Why would they launch a mate 30X when they launched a refreshed mate 20x with 5G a couple of months prior? That in itself was a clear indication at the time that they weren't going to release mate 30x.

Which in turn is a clear indication that the mate 20X wasn't a big seller for them. Hence just the 5G refresh to basically the same looking device.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
Well that was wrong info after all, now 6.44 inch and with camera hole. They know how to make ugly tiny phones these days. :silly:

[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Yep garbage small tall aspect ratio.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
Thx, but yes... To small..
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] gtchs:
In addition to the ROG Phone 2 I mentioned above that I'd like to try, I've been eyeing the OPPO Reno 10X Zoom for a while. It looks to be one of the bigger 'smaller' phones available (still quite a bit smaller than the 20 X).
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
Maybe Samsung S11+ on 6,9 inch could be the one, but still thinks it will be to small for me... But really not like Samsung anymore... Hope for something else.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
6.9" display wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't tall aspect ratio and curved which knowing Samsung it will be.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
Curved screen is 110% no go for me, tried it 2 times with Sammy S series phones... Never again for sure [emoji848]
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] gtchs:
Agreed! I tried it with 2 OnePlus 7 Pros and 1 Note 10+ and just never liked the curved screens.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Op7pro curves were nauseating. I sent mine back for just that reason alone. Else it was a top notch.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Zanr Zij:
Next phone will be Mate 40 or Mate 40X if Huawei keep using waterfall display on Mate 40 Pro.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
Yeah - I'd probably agree and go with this... Although, when I think about it, the only thing that bothered me about the curves, was the fact that it was so hard to get screen protectors that didn't affect the phone... And now I don't actually use one on my mate 20x. Maybe I could cope with it quite ok. A new gen of even better battery would be fun too. Although can we trust the tech companies to ever include top-line specs in a giant screen again? We giant phone lovers, might all be moving to the flip phones soon enough, I suppose. Rumours of Oneplus entering into flip territory are interesting.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
I agree 100% with all u wrote here.

I really look forward for a MEGA Big fold phone... But we will see what's will happening.

But still I love my M20X, for me it's still a top phone [emoji1303]
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
Samsung Galaxy 20 Ultra 5G? It will be 6,9 inch.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
Think I will buy this one... Buttt arrrrr... Don't like Sammy that much anymore.

Had many S and Note series phones in the past and never tried any other Sammy phones But to be hones, I better like Huawei Mate serie.

Or maybe I just wait another year for see what comes up, M20X is still a beast and mine not have a single scratch at all.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
S20 ultra 5G with 6.9" curved screen , I'll wait and see the note 20 ultra 5g . Probably 7.1" . Probably $1500 also [emoji1787]
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
Yeah - the S20 is the first one that has raised my gaze from the Mate20x so far. But I am doubtful about Samsung's promises having suffered them for so many years. They never fully deliver their promise.

At any rate, I did see that there was going to be a move away from curved screens reported until the recently leaked specs.

hmmm. Maybe save on a phone until I am sure the next one will surpass this one.

Damn it!
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Exactly, the flagship next gen Note is the one you should have your eyes on. We'll see in autumn. The only thing pissing me off with the mate 20x at the moment is the lack of cases available [emoji1787]
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Dmn100:
Lack of quality cases yes, there's plenty of cheapo Chinese ones available. For me, the case completely alters the way I perceive the phone and it's been the one thing I've struggled with this phone. I really like the look and feel of the P30 Pro I have in its clear Spigen case but I immediately miss the screen size and stereo speakers on the Mate 20 X as soon as I start to use it so always end up back with this.

---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------

Also, I too am interested in the Galaxy S20 series but If Samsung keep using their inferior Exynos chips, I'll probably pass again. And it will cost over €1000 until at least late summer, and I'm currently unemployed. My Mate 20 X only cost £499 in the UK and still very hard to fault.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
Have been using the strangest setup. Figure, if I am already being odd by having a strange phone, then may as well make it as perfect for me as I can. Currently using the standard navy blue Huawei case that only covers the corners, top, bottom edges and back. Bought heaps to start off with, but like this one the best. It's looking a little worn, but still doing a good job. Have dropped a few times and the phone remains unscathed. I stopped using a screen protector ages ago, after finding out it affects front camera photos. The screen still looks good. Secret? Phone has a separate pocket. However, grit and dust in between the phone and the case has meant some scratching along the top and bottom behind the actual case. :(

Also, have a swivel ring thing, set at a slight angle to fit my hand and enable fingerprint quickly. Originally, this ring thing pissed me off, as it came with another case... but the picture of the case made it look like the ring was embedded into the case. Dodgy Chinese seller - don't get me started - but probably exactly like this one (https://item.paipai.com/50214636459.html). Which it totally wasn't built into the case as the diagram made it look.

Anyway, turns out it was a good ring, and I like the fact that I can have it slightly off centre on the back - I have gone through two of these. Actually, I have a third but might buy a new (but same style of ) case now and stick it on that.

Black?

Should get me to Summer ... when do Notes come out? Can I really trust Sammy again? Hmmm. Food for thought
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Post pics of your cases, I just bought an el cheapo vegan leather wallet case [emoji1787] it's ok, but my edge to edge screen protector don't like it .
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] gtchs:
Problem with the S20 Ultra is that it is more narrow than the current S10 5G with a 6.7" screen (76mm vs 77.1mm). Phones are getting taller and narrower these days.

I just got an S10 5G and it is pretty awesome. The screen is curved but it seems to be not as curved as the Note 10 (I could be wrong on that but it seems that way to me and I had a Note 10 Plus for a day last week (returned due to damage)). The S10 5G is still quite a bit smaller than the Mate 20 X but overall it seems to be a great phone.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] gtchs:
I've been using the S10 5G for a few days and it has been great.....

Until I took the Mate 20 X out of the drawer and powered it up. I switched back to the 20 X. :cool:

[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
I admit I would like to see more of the 6.9 Ultra S20. The thing is though, I have experienced the Samsung with the s8+ and earlier models. I kept getting sucked in, and they never fully lived up to the hype. They were good, but always not great. Same with all the phones I have owned actually... And then there is the likely cost to switch to the highest ended Sammy.

This mate20x has simply delivered what it promised and more, but the future for a huawei mate40x or whatever seems grim for a number of reasons including a lack of market (will it even go ahead), no gapps, and locked garden continuing.

Edit: Also, I note the poll has been closed. Disappointed with that. Had hoped it would get to 10000000000000 v 3
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
Just the feeling I always have sit with, with other brands/mobiles.

I just the feeling I have with the M20X yes.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
Thoughts? I reckon I want to see battery tests on the new Sammy S20. Would love to see a review comparing it specifically to the Mate 20x. Seriously, apart from the price, it looks like a deadset possible replacement. Although, I don't think I could live with a lesser lasting battery performance than what I have now. I can't go back to the needing a charge during the day times. Will it be so much better that it is worth that price jump... that is some price jump.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
I'm sure if you turned off 120hz refresh rate it will be on par with Mate 20x . Just wait until they are on hand and check out the XDA Samsung forums.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Linuxkek:
S20 Ultra is 20:9 and curved screen - yesterday I get my hands on and it is just disgusting, like a Mi9 just 1 cm longer. I hope Xiaomi will bring this year a new Mi Max 4, with Amoled and speaker like Mi10.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] scienceguylabs:
Totally agree. I loved my original Mi Max, even though it wouldn't work on AT&T correctly for me. Great feeling phone though.

Hello, I m in the same opinion... I would appreciate applying a new version of android on this good hardware but i'm locked because of this bootloader... Funkyhuawei sold for the weekend bootloader unlock code but at 200 Dollar it was too expensive for me. I'm steel waiting but in few month i will try to have look on oneplus store and maybe if nothing goes right for this device get one Oneplus 8 PRO to replace this phone.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] @home:
Why are people getting rid of phone, mainly the International version?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
I bought a Chinese Oneplus7t for a friend and installed the Oxygen OS. Was such a lovingly smooth way to do it. I had the phone for few days. I learned that it was simply too small for me these days. At any rate, I feel like the Mate20x has left me unable to use smaller phones. I am reminded of the Reservoir Dogs scene (I think?) where Mr Pink? discusses the meaning behind Madonna's song. 'Like a Mate 20X, touched for the very first time.... etc...' - obscure reference - I know.

I also felt the camera was not up to the same standard. It is very difficult to go past the Mate 20X camera. Even after well over a year now, this is the first phone I have owned that stood toe to toe with its newer (by a year) competition. I wonder if the S20 night mode will catch up?

Funkyhuawei 200 dollar thing? Being stuck on Android old? A disgrace. Makes me hate this awesome phone even more. Yes - I am fully aware of my hypercritical stance. It sucks!

Being from China, and with an Android passion, I have also bought a few of these for friends. I didn't mind them, but I felt they always felt a little plastic-ie. And you know, the camera, I mean c'mon. right?

I don't know. I reckon I am lucky to have had a few hands-on with other phones. Nature of the beast I guess. Hard not to be a tech fan who watches phone reviews and not get swayed. It is a weird thing. These people get paid to show how good tech is, and also they need to be in the pocket of the phone companies too. The really good ones make it entertaining too. They work haard and deserve their rewards, but it is up to the individual to see through it all... which is unlikely as we are probably already very addicted to phone life, ay?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] galaxy16:
i personally really like the huawei mate 20x, my very first huawei phone is the mate 9 then mate 10 and now mate 20x i like every single bit of it. However, now adays higher refresh rate screen seems to be like a hot thing. and also the dual speakers on this phone made me fall in love with it the first day i tried them in the store.

There is another phone the realme x2 pro anyone have tried them? hows the speakers and camera compared to mate 20 x
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] scienceguylabs:
I'm with you.

I had the Pixel 4 XL and really liked its 120 Hz screen, but there's nothing wrong with the screen on my M20X, so I sold the Pixel. On a side note, the resale of the P4s is pretty bad. Ha ha

I've never used a realme device though.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] galaxy16:
wow, you even owned the pixel 4 XL and sold it and got back to mate 20 x, mate 20 x must be a champ! thanks for sharing! i have not personally tried an 120HZ/90HZ refresh rate screen phones yet
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] scienceguylabs:
Yeah. The P4XL is a great phone. I didn't like a few things about it though. It was too small for me. The facial recognition, while cool, couldn't replace the rear fps on my M20X. The screen was nice, but I'm cool with the M20X's.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
I feel the call to the S20 Ultra.

But then I see how slow the in-screen fingerprint is. I love my back centred fingerprint on the Mate20X.

Hmmm. Need to see more - less biased reviews on it - and wait for Sammy's price reductions too.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] juggamonkey:
So I had a chance to play with the S20 ultra today at best buy .it is a smaller screen and it is noticeable but it's still a huge phone. I just feel I'm really going to miss the size of the mate 20x. The speakers are nice and loud on the ultra. 120 hertz refresh rate is insane and is the major reason I'm upgrading.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] PhoneTechShop:
There are no speakers but only one bottom you don't have real loud speaker on top like 20X 120 hertz will drain your battery within few 3 4 hours so keep charging :)
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] juggamonkey:
The earpiece is actually a speaker also it is quite loud to be such a small speaker. From what I've read people are getting 8 hours screen on time with 120hz enabled
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] gtchs:
The just announced LG V60 looks interesting. Screen is a bit smaller (6.8).
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
In Android Authority's youtube video - 'LG V60 hands-on: Upgrades that matter', seems like the guy doing the initial hands-on video seems less enthused than normal (@ 3:25).

5000 battery is a win, dual display (if it is cheap and works) could be ok, and headphone jack (for some - not me though) might be a win, price? could be a win.

That screen camera water drop... nah mate. My opinion is it looks cheap compared to the mate 20x - I don't think I could stomach it. Also the size does seem small.

Looking for more info in sammy S20 Ultra.

C|NETS video - 'Galaxy S20 Ultra review: Samsung's AWESOME camera is just too expensive' - @7.32 Just a few words, but highlights exactly where I am with Samsung and some other phones and their 'massive' battery lives. I can't go back to compromise for a more expensive phone. For instance, I had two relatively lighter days this week in a row - mate20x got through it like a champion. Maybe if it goes at under 900 (AUD) in July. But doubt it will go that low, right?

hmmmm.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] DonkeyKonk:
Just thought I would post at how good my experience has been with this phone, I was surprised to see that it is well over a year now since it was released (July 2018) and I got mine very soon after in August 2018.

The year has literally flown by in mobile phone terms, as I had normally found myself bored / unhappy with a phone after about 6 months, but this phone is still spot on and feels like a 'new pbone' still.

Android One is just by far the best OS, and coupled with a decent processor and fantastic battery life (which has not deteriorated at all seemingly) I can see myself using this for another year, especially as it is right at the maximum size physically to use one handed for me.

I have been tempted by the Mi 9T (and pro) but it is just that little bit bigger, and also, more so, it has Miui on it. If it had an Android One Version I would have got one, but it just seems there has not been any better Android One Phones since (the new Mi A3 has an awful screen, the Mi A2 has no headphone etc)

So a belated happy birthday Mi A2 Lite, hopefully there will be a great Mi A4 Lite in a year or so.

From what I understand, the radio is the piece of hardwared that does all of the radio communication. Basicaly, it is the antenna for the voice, data, gps etc... so when we say that we are flashing our radios, are we flashing the actual radio chip, or does "flashing my radio" really mean "flashing my radios firmware"? i guess in other words, are we actually writing data directly to the chip that does the talking? or to another chip that controls the talker. hope i make sense. im typing on the kais. thx in advance.
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
I have my screen timeout set to 2 mins, but if I turn the screen off manually and then immediately back on (Say because I receive a message), even if it has only been a few seconds it still asks for my PIN, is there a way to delay this too?

My S9 used to allow a delay set for logging back in and would just turn straight back onto the homescreen, gets a bit tedious having to log in every single time and I don't want biometrics set (Not that fingerprint seemed to be very reliable anyway, and face unlock is too easy to fool)
