Smith73, 26 Nov 2024Without Google Play it's just an expensive brick!Smith ... what part of China is that name from?
Maybe the Chinese consumers don't need Android ... just like American's don't feel the absolute need to have Alipay, WeChat or Baidu on their phones?

    As someone who used a 2018/2019 Huawei Mate 20 pro, I have to say that the Mate series have traditionally been of very high quality - with regards to both, soft- and hardware.The Mates seemed to be superior and more refined when compared to the P-series (or as Huawei recently named them "Pura").
    I know that Google Services are limited nowadays, but on the other hand, there is hope that their new OS will be much more power-saving when compered to Android.
    So, for people who actually only use the pre-installed stock apps, and who enjoy the excellent cameras, the Mate 70/pro might still be an amazing option in 2024/2025.
    I hope that it will get reviewed here.

      Razvy, 26 Nov 2024You are clearly misinformed ;)It's different from previous Harmony OS versions

      You can find various pages about this.
      Mate 70 series didn't come with HOS next, but as x6 has it from the get go, the same would be for mate 70 series in less than a couple of months.
      *There's no info about the global.

        No point, phone is banned in my country and even if I get it somehow I will need to dance around to make Google Play work

                          Similar to iPhone making the front punch bigger just because of the dynamic island.
