George399, 06 Sep 2022The prices are not so much ridiculous like the iphones but ... moreYeah, they seem to be around 10% more expensive than flagships from the other major Chinese brands. Despite this, they'll probably sell better than Oppo, Honor, Vivo and Xiaomi flagships even though the lack of 5g is a big disadvantage in China.

        Also if USA didn't stop production of Kirin all their companies would have loose money in the end.
        In my opinion they just buyed some time.

          If you think you can just open a device and swap it, you have zero clue about how it works, just like you pretend to know about photos.
          Funny you never make this scandal when S FE series does not come powered by 865+/888+.

          Anyway, just another xiaomi lover that is waiting to get hands on new iphone, while bashing all other.

          By the way, 12s Ultra cannot beat compact cameras. What a failure. Lets see if Honor Magic 5 Ultimate can do it, because 989 inside Find X6 Pro is gonna be wasted too.

            The prices are not so much ridiculous like the iphones but still overpriced

              Olympus Oms, 06 Sep 2022Huawei have 5g. Wake up. ......HAD 5G. Any 5G technology uses US parts and because of sanctions, they can't even get those parts from 3rd-parties and Qualcomm only got permission to give Huawei processors with 4G capabilities.

              You wake up.

                Bra h, 06 Sep 2022If they do it america wl do nobody in the worl will buy the... moreThe world don't need America to survive. Asia alone is more than 3 times as big as little USA.

                  Very disappointed they removed Monochrome module, this is ridiculous small 1/1.5" sensor and without Monochrome to work togather with that. 😔

                    OhNom, 06 Sep 2022They don't have access to 5G technology in processors,... moreHuawei have 5g.

                      Zuzuz, 06 Sep 2022Money. Qualcomm would have been in ropes if kirin was in th... moreAmerica is smaller than Asia alone. Bad excuse. But very American.

                        Another joke release from Huawei.

                        The lack of 5G is understandable,but at least the 8+gen1 is a solid chip in general.

                        But WTF are those specs of Mate 50?
                        90hz display and battery under 4500mah for that price?

                        And the 50 pro battery under 5000mah in 2022 for that price?

                        And the return of the notch is just stupid. It looks even worse than on Iphones....

                        Imagine if Huawei had Google services and was top brand in sales how much higher the prices would be. Its crazy.

                          Vikass17, 06 Sep 2022And how to "put" 5G? Do they have to write with ... moreHuawei have 5g. Wake up.

                              Think before you comment (i didn't really wanted to say this , because I have heard the same many times.)

                                Curious to see which chinese OEM is gonna use the " i " notch. Place your bet ..

                                1) P60 Pro
                                2) 13 Ultra
                                3) Find X6 Pro

                                  Still bitching about the 8+ wharn previous models did not use the Plus version?

                                  Zenfone 9 = 8+G1 , throttles to 59%
                                  Z4 Flip = 8+g1 , throttles to 46%.

                                    -Trix-, 06 Sep 2022Huawei users propably want face recognition over the finger... moreWell you are absolutely right. The Face ID on the Mate series is simply the best. Yes, even better than Apple. I used the Mate 30 Pro & when Apple used to struggle with face masks, this phone did not. Plus it is more accurate. Huawei also gives two options for unlocking, the fingerprint sensor. Unlike Apple which sticks to one.
                                    Yes the notch is obtrusive & ugly but considering the size & curves of the phone, it does not bother at all. I experienced this myself. Yes, I am a notch hater.

                                      Anonymous, 06 Sep 2022Pretty sure some Xiaomi phones have Telephoto lens + Macro.... moreWrong. Tele macros from Xiaomi can be used exclusively for macro. They say tele because you can focus on things while being a lot bit more far away from the subject. In the way you won't scare away an imsect or you won't put dirt on your phone.

                                        OhNom, 06 Sep 2022They don't have access to 5G technology in processors,... moreThey provide a 5g case with the phone.
