If it's based on Android it isn't a real OS and if it's a new OS it never can beat Android because it has no application in comparison to millions Android applications.

    Baykko, 06 Aug 2019Why are so many Americans so freaking paranoid about China ... moreFB just got sued and has to pay a hefty fine by exposing users info, and it is not the first time. Basically all social media, google, IOS all collecting your data whether you like it or not. If you think Huawei is behind china government, then basically every US big companies are under US government. Trump can just ask certain companies to boycott any of their customers just like that. So you think google is not working for Trump ?

    To think that US put their corporation above government is a joke, they have to listen to whatever their government wants. If china government wants my info so beat it, I am not china citizen and I already exposed my info using android or IOS. Either way I am getting monitored by someone.

      it is not so much about consumerism...

        BigDisplay, 06 Aug 2019Lets see what will hapoen, maybe it come,maybe not. Maybe ... moreAgreed. Wait and see. Doesn't matter what the product is, whether it be the Note 10 or the Mate X

Some manufactures even cheat the benchmarks so i don't always trust them.

            The A50 is far from a Note 9 even if you "feel it" that way.
            As someone else already said, any professional review will tell you that.

              GAMIRSFM, 05 Aug 2019Again, you are using benchmarks as your reference, not actu... moreBenchmarks are still the most reliable source to compare performance.

                Why are so many Americans so freaking paranoid about China stealing your info yet they appear not to give a damn about Google, Apple, Facebook and all those humongous conglomerates that already manage all their information and know their every step? Its like they think China will use the information as Intel to invade their houses and drive them out, as if your internet browsing history would give anyone an edge on invading your country.

                  Anonymous, 05 Aug 2019Where's that Huawei fanboy who linked forbes saying that no... moreAll these reports are coming from independent sources. I don't see hwo Huawei needs to make up their mind.

                    Lets see what will hapoen, maybe it come,maybe not.
                    Maybe it sucks, maybe not.
                    Maybe we think we are experts and know what will happens or maybe we dont.
                    Maybe we should just wait and see what will come or....

                      Anonymous, 05 Aug 2019Why bother? There is A50 out there to meet your expectations.Lol, not, a phone is more then just the memory card.
                      Thats the reason So many buy Huawei and not Samsung and the reason Huawei come closer as no. 1.

                        Anonymous, 05 Aug 2019Huawei, brace yourself for a big fail, becasue our dev won'... more Lol u are the big joke here.
                        U admit u dont know how it will be and in the same time u say it will die lol are u a magic guy or something.
                        Go to sleep girly.

                          I'm a Samsung and Apple user (not fan) as I know they aren't perfect.
                          But I'll definitely give an hongmeng device a go if they pop over to the UK....not saying I'll keep it but unless you try you don't know

                            dude111, 05 Aug 2019lol The CPU its not even close to the 845, its 3/4 between... moreAgain, you are using benchmarks as your reference, not actual experience. Even if you said you used an A50, what you said are just benchmarks.

                              GAMIRSFM, 05 Aug 2019I used an A50 and i can tell you most of what you said is f... morelol
                              The CPU its not even close to the 845, its 3/4 between 821 and 835.
                              The GPU is even worse than the one on the 821.
                              Check your note 9; if it performs similarly to the A50 something is very wrong with it.

                              And there is lag on the A50. It needs optimization on the multitasking, as it freezes, stutter and lags most of the time when you change from one app to another. On everything else it performs well enough, but that part is especially noticeable.

                              And i have used one too.

                                First they say they were working on this for 7 years
                                Then they say its far from complete
                                Then, it will release is Q3 or Q4
                                Then again far from complete
                                Then they say its almostready to hit the market and will launch entry level phones with it this year
                                Then they say it was not intended to be used on smartphone
                                Now there is news it will launch in Q4
