After having this phone since November 2020, moving to Xperia 5 III, returning to it and upgrading to Mate 50 Pro, I'd say this is the best and most well-rounded phone I've ever had.
I've got it for 380 Euros brand new, and the best bang for the buck ever. Build quality-wise, it was built much better than Mate 50 Pro. The battery is now at 92% health after almost 3 years and I've used it extensively. I never had anything to complain about, although the display has a bit of a green tint and isn't very color-accurate, price-wise it's excellent. The 2nd hand price is now around 150 Euros and I highly suggest anyone buying it, you won't find a better phone for quite a bit higher price.

      Kujtim Zymeri, 18 Sep 2023Sony Xperia 5iv. Yeah it can happen for exchange.

        dejan, 18 Sep 2023How can I install harmony os4 on version ana nx9?.. no you cannot, we have the same model and we have the same model and it is not yet supported, We have the global model and only Chinese models so far are supported. I just received a September patch and it still works great. I think there is not much difference on the UI when comparing EMUI and Harmony OS other than faster response and battery life I guess.

              Hi I have this phone 2 years (got as a present) and I love it very much. GMS is not problem for me.
              A Question if someone can assist....
              What might be the reason that I do not have an eSim option in that phone? I see an IMEI, MEID but not an EID!. Nothing to give any option to set the eSim as demonstrated all arround. The phone is running HarmonyOS3. And I do not know where it was bought from (present). Its factory name is ANA-AN0. Thanks in advance

                    Hello Please Huawei , Lg and Sony is brand which one is good and which model to buy

                      gastritis, 24 Jul 2023I had this phone for around two years now and it is still c... moreYes!

                        I had this phone for around two years now and it is still comfortable to hold compared to newer phones that are ever-growing in size. It is very easy to hold and use as it is so compact.

                        The screen size is just enough for me, it is good outdoors and can be dim enough for bedtime browsing. It is OLED so it has perfect blacks. 60Hrtz is fine, too, it saves up battery. The pill size cutout is negligible when gaming but can be noticeable when watching videos in landscape. I forgive it since it is used for IR-face scanning which works even in pitch-black environments as opposed to what GSMArena said in its review.

                        The cameras are hands-down great, it takes very good photos regardless of the situation. Oddly, it is better to use auto mode when taking pictures of dark or nighttime environments as it is much better, the night mode doesn't take better pictures. Sometimes you just need to toggle off the AI feature to keep it from switching between the cameras for a photo of something.

                        The speaker is not bad, it is loud but I have used other phones that can be louder, the haptics are nice, too.

                        Battery life is very good, after making sure to charge when 15-20 percent and unplug after reaching 80-85 percent, it still shows 95% on the maximum capacity in the settings app. The good thing is that it has some nice battery settings where you can disable app launches which does help.

                        I received and installed the latest security update dated July 2023. I'm not sure if they are going to work on upgrading the EMUI on this phone.

                        I used GBox to access Google Photos and Maps, Chrome can be installed directly to the phone, I used the built-in email app and logged my Google accounts and I haven't had issues with syncing emails, and I used Smart Launcher instead of its own launcher. It can be annoying for some but there is a way to use the apps that you need, if you know what you are doing, like syncing contacts and so on, there are many tutorials and videos online.

                        The best compact phone that I used so far, the small Zenfones are nice but this looks way better and more premium in my opinion.

                                Hi, almost all praise this mobile phone which is indeed very much right, great camera, hardware, screen, compact size, 5g, dual Sim with SD card all 3 to gather if esim is activated out of 2 physical Sim. Had this phone got Google play store, it would had surpassed lots of other mobiles. I am using it for almost over one year. No issues till todate. U can use Google apps through Third party but one still genuinely misses Google.
                                Any idea when P40 global is getting EMUI 13.

                                  Nik, 08 Aug 2022One question for all, Huawei p40 or Huawei nova 9? P40 why?
                                  Because nova 9 is a midrange
                                  P40 is a flagship, someone says nova 9 is an overpriced midrange

                                    It has 960 GPS at 1080p

                                        This has to be one of the last, best phones from them in a compact form factor. Good main camera, decent rest of the cameras, front has 4k, and IR, flat screen, good performance, and best of all, the last generation of Kirin available to all, gonna exclude the mythical 9000 one cause its super rare
