... moreWell, on my p20 it's not that rosy. After the emui 10 upgrade, the phone became slow, apps crash and the battery life has tanked.
Glad you can't have to get rid of your phone sooner than you wanted

What I would miss if I didn't have a Huawei/Honor is:
1. Memory management (doesn't close apps left/right even with 4GB)
2. Relatively smooth after several years (my xiaomi needed 1y resets to keep working)
3. Low battery degradation (still have 88% original capacity left after 4 years)
4. Updates are still coming after 4 years (albeit slowly)
5. A 4y old kirin flagship cpu is still usable several android versions later.
6. Battery consumption has never been better than now with the latest software updates. On my Xiaomi and LG I could update AT THE COST OF crappy battery life. So the choice was shit old OS or shit battery life.
Gotta say that Huawei/Honor make fantastic phones. It's not often they get better and better, but this one sort of does. Only the apps get heavier and heavier, but that's not a fault of the phone.

Just be honest!
I am not a chinese or US or blah blah
US is the current superpower and chinese are rising extremely fast and US knows very well what step they need to take to push the chinese or atleast pause their effort. But as far as my mind is saying, they(china) will take time but will come more strong because from now on they will be thinking about totally independent chinese tech which they won't need to go outside of country for.
Peace :)

NotAnOpinion, 24 Oct 2020This performance is NOT Huawei's innovation / design. ... moreYour reasoning is flawed. If what you are saying is correct, then all phones should have the same performance since they use ARM based designs.
For your information, ARM only provides instructions set designs for chips and doesn't design the chips and that's where companies like Huawei, Qualcomm, Apple, etc pick it up from and design their SOCs.
So yes, it's Huawei's innovation in the camera department that is giving them an edge just like Apple is good at optimisation and their product integration and are the many companies are good at one or more areas of technology.

highlow, 24 Oct 2020are you nuts? some laws are ridiculousChinese laws prevent Google and Facebook from collecting and selling user data and target users with ads i.e. their business model. Chinese government has strict controls over what firms can do with the data they collect.

You people are still looking for that unicorn.
By all means, though, keep searching for it.

ASUS ROG Phone 3, 24 Oct 2020Which is true but China also curtails Facebook, Google, Twi... moreThey're not banning Facebook/Google etc ... You just have to follow their laws.
Apple/Tesla are operating in China just fine.
In my country all ISPs are required to keep 5 years of log for each user.
It's the law. If a foreign/domestic companies can't comply then they can't do business here.
If Epic can't comply with Apple's T&C they get kicked off the Apple store.
Do you see the game being played?

KondriX, 24 Oct 2020And how does this help in real life? You life will become more peaceful because of less anger towards your phone after several years of usage.
Joke aside, npu & ai will keep your phone run smooth even after 2-3 years.. Just ask huawei users that use recent flagships with high end kirin, how much lag that they encounter after several years of usage. . I bet it will be less complaints compared to high end galaxy users..(at least from my own experienced).

Whatever idea they come like good features and hardware, I'm no longer buying Huawei phones because of no Google. I need gmail. Most countries banned Huawei phones from their countries. Better to get better models like in Xiaomi or oppo or Samsung.
