    How can the some of the cons be :
    The free fast charger in the box does support pd when they say nothing about the z fold 5 not having one at all.
    They don't like the nm card and yet they say nothing about the z fold 5 not having expendable storage at all.
    They complain about the fingerprint sensor location but yet again they don't on the z fold 5 review, which has its own place on the same location.

          I read in article that IMX351 is paired with RYYB color filter. However Sony declares IMX351 to be RGBG filter sensor. Can someone clarify if there's error in the article ?

One government (N*A,F*I,C*A) has access to every data real time, but they are only interested in the data to monitor/control all other countries (i.e. so called "leaders" which is just a puppy). Of course they do not care about your "privacy data" because you are nobody. Wake up...

China blocks almost all popular western software for ages now. Their government can legally use any data from companies in any way they want. And I was well aware of that when I had Huawei phone :) it is as it is

Free markets when our product is better, but pretend that our competitors install Spyware when we can't compete. For as long as there are national interests. Free markets woukd be a pipe dream.

                      yalim, 10 May 2023Classic GREEDY Huawei. Half the phone, twice the price. The... moreI see you have no idea what you're talking about.

                      This phone is by far the only foldable pushing the envelope, where Samsung is basically releasing the same Galaxy Fold 3 years in a row, with midrange cameras and ridiculously narrow cover screen. Not to mention plebeian 25W charging.

                      I'm not even gonna talk about google with their bezels from 2017 and their 2020 rebadged Exynos chip.

                      No GMS ? Can be reinstalled within minutes after the first boot. If you don't know how to do it then it's on you.

                      This phone offers twice the camera performance and half the thickness of the competitors, so maybe asking 50% more isn't such BS ? Next time please do the thinking before the writing.

                        NM card is not a cons. It's superior than all other brand flagships except Sony.

                          Unfortunately like all Huawei mobile devices the only real con is the lack of GMS. Most others are nitpicks and wouldn't be picked up by the masses. Sucks the US felt so threatened they had to resort to such tactics as hampering technological innovations for all. I wish the world wasn't so dependent on Google even though it's not their fault.

                                That's a staggering amount of cons for a 4.6 review.

                                  As far as I know, the Huawei is not the one who insist on using NM cards, he was banned from using microSD cards and therefore he came up with its own standard.
