If you wish just read the topic about Mate 20X on Xda forum (I cannot share the link here).
It seems that some udpates solve or create issue with this Widevine...
But some guys say that their chinese version is L1...And I believe them.
Does anyone get chinese or global version in here?
Could you share your experience with?

Th... moreI was thinking like you till I've seen on Xda forum that someone posted the screenshot of its AL00 version (so the chinese one) with widevine L1...and we know that L1 is the one allowing you to watch in HD...usually on Chinese version there is L3 but it seems that with this one it is L1...if true that means that there is almost no differences beteween 2 versions...
But maybe it also depends on some updates you can get or something like that...

The international version that allow netflix in HD is the L29. The 8g/256 version is a chinese version with only 480p in netflix (as usual in chinese phones).
I recommend this shop https://www.wondamobile.com/huawei-mate-20x-evr-l29-128gb-sim-free-unlocked.html

I don't want to buy the Chinese version of this phone. I do want to buy the global version. Does anyone know where I can buy a new Global International version of the Huawei Mate 20 X? Thank you.

I also read on Xda developers and apparently there are some differences between chinese and international versions:
- Widevine is L1 for international version (and not L3 on chinese one) which allow to play videos in HD
- All menus and submenus are 100% in english in international version
- 6 GB only for the international version, possibility to get 8 GB with chinese version
- "OK google", some other features connected with Google might not work properly with chinese version whereas they work with international one
Can someone confirm this?
Considering this, I think that international (global) version might be better to get.
Funkyhuawei already sells it, but there are also some others: eBay and wondamobile for instance...
Did someone already buy from one of those store?
Thanks in advance!

Normally u can ask seller to install google store for you and uf not try to google the question on how to install google store on huawei, easy peasy really.
So dont worry, go buy it.
Normally the difference between global and international version is 00,1% and dont matter, is the same here i wrote in xda forum.
But u can buy a international version if u want on funkyhuawei site (y)

Widevine is L3, isn't it? No problem to watch videos in HD? What about HDR?
Google play was installed or did you do it by yourself?
I know that the global version (EVR-L29, but only 6GB) is on arrival or already available on some online store.
Do you guys, know the exact differences bewteen the global version and the chinese one?
Thanks!

Damn this phone is nice. If you like big screens this is the phone for you. My Chinese version 8gb is buttery smooth. Screen crisp and bright. Speakers loud and clear. Huawei. Made one hell of a phone.

What I am converning this phone is not screen resoltuon. Full HD pentile could be OK. It has to sacrifice resolution to gain speed. What I realy worry is PWM at 245hz (the same as 20 pro). I had a very bad experience with Samsung S9+ (PWM at 215hz): heardache, dry/red/swallen eyes, epilepsy ... in the end I have to give it away. I wish I could get a flagship with DC screen. But the only one I could get is Asus Zenfone 5Z. Mate 20 use DC LCD screen but it is RGBW, which is not true RGB panel.
