Weekly poll: will you take a chance on one of the Huawei Pura 70 phones?

28 April 2024
Huawei may have built some of the best camera phones of 2024 - but without Google Play Store support, would you still be interested in one?

According to people here, motorola cannot ask 1000 euros in Europe ( probably no more than 700 euros in China ) for phone with 8sg3, but it is fine huawei phone with android 12 and SoC worse than SD865 for 900-1300 euros in China ( imagine in places like UK)

        Would love for a return of pop up camera.

          justasmile, 28 Apr 2024I really like the Pura 70, but I'm not buying it when ... moreGive them time. They are improving year by year. It is very hard to start from almost nothing. Next one will probably be in 5nm and in sd 8s gen 3 score.

            For the right price and availability ofc. Great phones.

                  I really like the Pura 70, but I'm not buying it when the Kirin 9010 can't even match the Snapdragon 8 gen 1.

                      Design is beautiful,Cameras are impressive & overall hardware is impressive as expected from Huawei.
                      2 major downsides-

                      1. SoC is weaker...since Huawei is crippled & neither can't use latest cores nor latest fabs so Chipset is gonna be weaker & less efficient than current flagships but still its performance is in upper-midrange ballpark.

                      2. Software needs work. Im not talking about lack of GMS,it's not a big issue in itself as none of them is that much of importance except Play store. Huawei needs to improve UI consistency,resposiveness & overall cleanliness of OS. Also previously Huawei had terrible RAM management as it used to kill background processes aggressively,not sure about that now.

                      About price...if somehow they can manage it to be slightly cheaper then it'd be great.

                        An important app in Sweden are BankID, Huawei have not that in their App Store.
                        So it would not work to use it here.

                          None of them i would choose. The performance kind of outdated for the high price. If they promote the "camera", i would choose s24 or Oppo Find X7.

                            No, because it's overpriced even in China.

                                I'm using a mate 50 pro for about 6 months now as my second phone. First phone is a company p30 pro. There's lots of things you can't do with it, but also a lot that you still can. I don't miss Google apps. All Microsoft apps work great and I use those. The most important things not available are android auto, buggy payment apps (such as parking apps), play store games (most work but are broken because they can't sync with play store, banking apps do not have all functions (no nfc). Another thing is updating apps is tedious and has to be done manually.

                                If you can live with that the Huawei phones are superior in all other aspects. The camera is the best on android, doesn't matter what anyone says. Just try it. I really hope they pull through and start selling phone's again in the west. We really need the innovation. Apple and samsung just started renumbering old phones again and selling as new.

                                  Besides the fact that it has a low resolution display (which is a deal breaker for me), I don't mind the phone and it's beautiful!
                                  We are TOO dependent on GMS, and this is not healthy. Android phones and all non-google apps should work fine without GMS. Monopolies are evil, and google is one.
