    i rather use HONOR 9 same design but way more batter then HUAWEI... and it has GOOGLE

      ahh man the best SD 778G phones belongs to Mi 11 lite 5g ne which is about $300 or 400 euro, if you want complete features there is a52s for $500. this nova is overpriced and less feature for the price.

        Only reason I'm not buying it is no Harmony OS. They made their own eco system like Apple only better and keep it locked in Asia, not nice or it's not finished.

            What's up with this hot trash?

            Even Samsung makes much better mid range phones now

              Boly, 21 Oct 2021Fan of huawei phones since getting P30 Pro, it's a sha... moreThe Honor phones have GMS and they are similar to Huawei otherwise as Honor used to be under Huawei's ownership as the online brand.

                No Google Play Services? Why? :(

                      Another puzzling Huawei push here...

                      Who would buy this in Europe?

                        Wow great main cam

                          A bit sad. Without Kirin, Huawei isn't Huawei. I dare to say that Kirin was most efficient chipset. Starting from 970. And i stand my point. No 'spionage', no 5G but Kirin was main reason of the ban. My phone runs on 980. Still smoother than most of nowadays competitors. (But then again, my 808 from the past is still smoother than most of budget Spydroids.)

                              The phone looks pretty good.

                                Pros:
                                1. Good display
                                2. Fast charging
                                3. Good design
                                4. Good main cam

                                Cons:
                                1. No stereo speakers
                                2. No ip rating
                                3. No gms(although this problem can be solved)
                                4. Rest of cams are meh contrary to main cam

                                So it's up to you if you think the cons are big enough or pros are big enough.

                                  Nice looking phone. Stylish and premium.
