    BEIDOU is everywhere like GPS, GLONASS and GALILEO.

      [deleted post]I'm not trying to say it is. Use logic: why would Huawei NOT use 5G if they had it ready and available?

          .alpha, 06 Sep 2022Darn, Huawei beats everyone to the satellite messaging game... moreYou do know that you can't use this outside of China right? They are only for Chinese, out of China, this satellite is useless.

              I am surprised dxomark hasn't already published a review, I hope we don't have to wait until the global release

                  Helespont, 06 Sep 2022Very disappointed they removed Monochrome module, this is r... more1/1.5 is not ridiculously small and with an f1.4 aperture, the equivalence is 1.4*4=5.6 whereas the pixel 6 is 3.58*1.9 which is 6.8 and the x80 pro is 3.58x1.57=5.62 so you get more light with the mate 50

                  With the monochrome sensor on the p50 pro, to my knowledge you can't take 40mp shots anyway, they are all downscaled to 12.5mp

                    Wambua Victor, 06 Sep 2022Nah. I had an S9 plus and a Huawei nova 5t, the Samsung cou... moreOh, the more recent phone with bigger battery, lower resolution display and 7nm chip lasted longer, who would have thought? 😏

                        Damn! What a waste.
                        Once again Huawei produce a masterful phone that's no use to me.

                          The back gold ring on black and camera set up looks nice

                              That black option looks nice, especially with that contrasting rim around the camera module.
