    Can Google Play services be loaded on this phone so as to make it desirable?

      One thing I'd like to appreciate is Huawei's Ultra Clarity mode. It gives real-time benefit of having those High-MP cameras.

        Very underwhelming for the price...

          Shui8, 17 Mar 2020Read the review, in performance section. Its literally beat... moreYeah, it beats the other mid-range SoCs, but since GSM Arena wrote Cortex-A77 on the 1st page of the review, I thought you believed them, just neverming. *teehee*
          No, I haven't heard about any mid-range with Cortex-A77.

            At the same price one can get Huawei Nova 5t (or honor 20) which is a much better buy!
            It has flagship 7nm Kirin 980, metal+glass build, better ultrawide, 4k recording and GMS!

              Shadocx, 17 Mar 2020How? The Kirin 810 actually have Cortex-A76.Without Snapdragon 720G or Dimensity SoC, yes I assume that this is the most powerful currently available, if I judge it from the benchmarks. Just saying.

                In love with the teal blue and the baby pink gradient

                  Shadocx, 17 Mar 2020How? The Kirin 810 actually have Cortex-A76.Read the review, in performance section. Its literally beats other mid-range SOC to dust. Almost no thermal-throttling along with great battery backup.

                  Also, is there any mid-ranger SOC use cortex-a77?

                    Shui8, 16 Mar 2020Nice explanation with getting Google Mobile Services method... moreHow? The Kirin 810 actually have Cortex-A76.

                        I like this phone and I could probably rock the sakura pink colour. Tops every other phone in its class in performance and battery life. Looks good too.

                          Whackcar, 16 Mar 2020As far as "Lite" phones go, this is one of the better ones ... moreDid you saw the low light photos? the camera is garbage curently.

                            1. The phone chipset has no Cortex A77 cores.

                            2. "The low-light photos have very good detail and color saturation, balanced exposure, and the noise reduction isn't that harsh. Overall, we consistently liked what we got at nighttime"

                            Are you serious? you call this garbage very good detail? and you liked it?

                                Cons are very serious.
                                Phone for this price cant have these issues.

                                    This phone has everything an average buyer would want.
                                    Great battery life. Great performance. Good cameras. Good build. Decent screen - even with low contrast. And there are many alternatives to Play Store out there, Aptoide has always been one of the top alts. but there is the side loading as explained. The microG stuff works and is really simple to set up.
                                    Personally I'm happy Huawei are trying to make their own ecosystem and be some competition to Google. Competition is necessary for companies to improve, learn and innovate.
