      Lucky, 27 Nov 2021Am with u there.. Am using p40 pro huawei and I never have ... moreRunning a mate 40 pro here in a third world country. I'm connected to 5g. To me 5g really only comes into play I'd you watch data intense videos or downloading large files. Past that 5g is really overrated for normal day to day tasks. 4g is well easier to use and has better battery usage compared to 5g. This is probably the problem on any 5g smart phone. My Poco X3 GT has also battery issues when using 5g, mostly I run it on 4g.

        Vic, 27 Nov 2021Great it doesn't have a 5G. In many many countries 5G ... moreAm with u there.. Am using p40 pro huawei and I never have or connect to 5G am always using 4G

          I'd have left the "4G" off of it.
          It takes an educated buyer to know they will not see 5G in ANY current model iteration.

            Anonymous, 27 Nov 2021no 5G. wat a bummer. 300 bucks for a 4G old SoC? As if 5G is widely available my friend! I believe it will be years before 5G becomes sufficiently available to warrant buying a 5G phone. Not to mention that because of the European sanctions on Huawei 5G technology, many of these countries will have an additional delay in their 5G infrastructure and implementation. Good luck.

              Great it doesn't have a 5G. In many many countries 5G won't be available years from now, so absolutely no point to pay extra for 5G phone. Even if 5G was available - I couldn't care less as I'm perfectly fine with 4G speed. Let alone 5G phone owners complain about poor battery life when connected to 5G network.

                Great to read this stuff in the old continent, altough i will not be one of the three people in Europe who will get this phone. Anyways thanks for the message.

                    It's very ironic to see Huawei leading in 5G technology but it's the only oem that doesn't release 5 g phones because of the damn sanction. It keeps you wondering what kind of world we are living in.

                        Oh Huawei they could have at least put in the Helio G90 or G90T..... SD720G, Kirin 810,820 or the latest G96

                          What? I have Xiamo mi 9 se (which has samsung display, samsung memory, sony lenses, etc...), with all the better specs (except for fast charging) and it costed 250e three years ago when it was new. This is ridiculous. People who buy this deserve better, and it doesnt even have android, while my mi9se got two android updates and its on android 11 already. And they try to sell a chipset which was old even 3 years ago for more than 300e?

                              Another rehashed e-waste.

                                  The Kirin 710 is roughly a bit less than a Snapdragon 660

But it seems that Huawei is confident in their software optimizations. And given how ubiquitous the Kirin 710 (And A-suffix derivative) chip is, I doubt that it won't run at least adequately smoothly in almost any game with graphics turned down. Remember, HarmonyOS plays by iOS rules, not Android, even if the OS is based upon the latter.

                                        I bought iqoo Z5 12+256gb in same price.
