      Anonymous, 05 Nov 2017I don't know others but in my opinion I just wanted a phone... moreI'll try to answer your question about the EMUI. I'm in kinda the same situation as you right now. I hope my comment isn't late :) I own a Moto X2 which runs Lineage 14.1. and as you may guess I'm a fanboy of a stock Andorid. My wife uses P9 for about 6 months and here I started looking towards this Huawei device and comparing it to my old phone. I know it's a P10 thread, but we are talking about EMUI. Well, yes it looks like someone was designing Android based OS which still has to look like iOS. But in general experience is smooth. Behavior of basic parts of the system is the same (notifications, phone configurations etc.). It just visually looks different. For me switching to EMUI would be a trade-off. I'll tell you why:
      - EMUI manages battery life amazingly (plus, battery capacity isn't too small itself)
      - Device has a rich featured camera (night shot, time lapse, bokeh effect and many more)
      - P10 just looks great.

      So, in the wake of that EMUI becomes a quite OK-ish operating system to use. I'm thinking to buy P10, when I save some money for that :)

          I doubt they will fix it in Oreo release, but it would be a nice surprise. In February of 2010 the issue was first mentioned and some duplicated issue posts were created. As of May 2015, regardless of the number of complaints they received, they clearly stated that they will not fix this issue ... and today there is still devices that plays ringtones/notifications sounds through speakers when headphones are plugged in. It's kinda saddening.

          Hearing though that it works on P9 gives me hope that they will indeed fix this in some other way for good one day !

              I visited the store where i bought the phone. It was the same problem. So it must be a software bug. The store also told me that the P9 plays the ringtone through the headset.
              They only have problems with the P10.

              Another thing was they said wait for the Oreo update maybe they will fix it. The Volume for notifications will also maybe be availible.

              So.....we should wait

                I'm pretty sure this is a bug and it's not a feature you can turn on or off (until proven otherwise). I have been waiting for a fix of this for years from Google on many phones I owned and they never proceeded to fix this issue. This bug seemed to followed in OS branches of Android as well. You could open a ticket with Huawei to report this issue and hope you'll get a positive response (either It's a feature ! You just have to do the following, or We look forward to fix this soon !).

                Otherwise, I may suggest you to install a third party application that does a workaround of this problem. It's a very ugly a disgusting workaround, but it works. Personally, I learned to cope with this bug because I hate installing an app and suffer their ads for improving basic functionnalities of a phone.

                If you Google "ringtone in headphones android" , you'll get many many many results of apps and workarounds in the results.

                  Ahs9, 04 Nov 2017Hi everyone, I need your help. I'm looking for a phone ... moreHi Ahs9,

                  As to adress your three main concerns :
                  - No oleophobic cover : As a previous user said, the P10 is already covered with a really good protective cover on the screen. If you don't remove it OR put another cover if this plastic one doesn't suit your need, I don't think it'll be a problem. I wouldn't recommend peeling off the plastic protector that's already on the screen. I bought a glass protector, but I regret removing it since day one lol. It fits a lot better than most plastic/glass protectors you'll find and it is of good quality. I don't know how the recent P10 are manufactured now, but maybe they fixed the oleophobic issue.
                  - overheating : I don't think you'll have that much of a problem with heat considering the activities you stated... it will heat up a little, but I doubt it'll be anywhere near levels which are uncomfortable or affecting performance. Putting a case on your phone may help cover the heating part. I know I don't notice it that much since I've put a case around it.
                  - EMUI : Emui is a very clean looking Android OS. Most of the themes I tried keeps that cleanliness intact and it is possible to get something close to stock as look and feel (through third party app... I'm thiking about SimpleFlat and SimpleO themes if you want to google them). I don't see stock android any better or worse than EMUI, just different. As someone who ALWAYS root/mod/reinstall stock on my previous phones, the thought never occured to me to do this with EMUI. It's just good as is and it has interesting features ! I'm pretty sure you'll like it as well.

                  Hope this helps !

                      When i plug the original Huawei headset i can listen to music and etc. My main problem is when i recieving a call the ringtone plays only through the telephone...not through the headset.

                      I cant hear the ringtone....the telephone vibrates and rings.

The performance on this phone is awesome. Multi-tasking is also excellent, it keeps every app opened in the background without an issue. I recommend you to get this phone or wait for its successor if you want a bezel less display.

                              My main use would be Flac music 24bit 192khz with simple to drive 62 ohms and 200 mW headphones AKG K701. So the 3.5 jack is pushing 192 kHz out, but if i send it to 44.1 kHz 16bit music center to play from speakers, is there setting to pre resample the hi-res music to CD audio spec?

                                  Issue 1: Don't remove the already attached glass screen protector if you can't handle a phone without oleophobic coating. I don't know about later P10s but mine does not have oleophobic coating (I can tell by the fingerprints, and yes, I removed the glass protector, and no, I did not regret it because I can live without oleophobic coating).

                                  Issue 2: I play mobile legends (game) a lot. And the game is pretty demandable. Despite that, my P10 doesn't heat for the first 2 hours more or less. It starts heating after that though but not as hot as you think. So gmail, facebook and whatever light apps are fine on the P10.

                                  I also talk with my woman on the phone a lot (around 2 hours more or less everyday), my P10 never heated.

                                  However, it does heat when using the camera for long periods of time (still not as much as you think)

                                  Issue 3: It's my first time using emui and I am definitely loving it. It's so easy to handle. I would say it's better than most. I never changed the icons because they all look pretty sophisticated for me.

                                  I definitely recommend buying this phone. Very fast and elegant. 5.5 inch phones are still pretty easy to handle when it comes to texting (I have big hands).

                                  Hope this helped. ✌

                                        Hi everyone, I need your help.

                                        I'm looking for a phone and after a LOT of research, I'm considering buying the P10. I've read most of the opinions and, as always, they're different. I assume it all comes down to how you use your phone, so:

                                        I talk a lot.
                                        I use Gmail a lot.
                                        I use Google Drive / Microsoft Office a lot (reading mostly , rarely editing)
                                        I text a lot (mostly SMS, hangout, less messenger).
                                        I search a lot and copy information from websites, and need to switch between apps very fast.
                                        I don't play games.

                                        For the past years, I've been using a Oneplus One. My experience is great actually. The battery life was excellent (even now it's great but dropped to levels I can't work with), I have no lags whatsoever using apps or switching between them. It looks good (no glass back with fingers on it). But the phone is too big to handle easily with one hand. And has no fast charging capabilities (although charges surprisingly fast with the right charger)

                                        So...

                                        On the paper the P10 looks perfect for me:

                                        - small
                                        - bigger battery than what I started with on the OPO One
                                        - I like the design (matte back - no fingerprints like on Galaxy s8)
                                        - better processor and more RAM

                                        But...

                                        I have three main concerns:

                                        - no oleophobic cover - I've heard the rumors and seen the effects and that was unacceptable. I've heard though that this issue was resolved and the late P10's don't have the problems. Can anyone confirm this?

                                        - overheating - as I've said I don't play games but considering my mentioned usage I just can't have a phone that after sending ten emails and making 5 calls gets hot. What's your experience on this?

                                        - EMUI - I'm used to stock Android and just hope that using the themes I can make these icons and notifications "bearable" (It looks awful out of the box). I can, right?

                                        Please help me either by providing any useful information on these three topics or maybe recommending a phone a just didn't notice (?)

                                        Thank you in advance.
