You're suggesting that there is something about Huawei phones that people should go out of their way to apologise for or defend. No one is going out of their way to apologise for or defend Huawei. They are doing spectacularly well despite all the US sanctions and are making class-leading products.

Given your username is alcatraz, I assume you're American. How did you even manage to buy Honor or Huawei phones in the US?

    Huawei is a lot smarter than some of the people defending them online. Some of the rabid people writing for Huawei are making Huawei look bad. I have a lot of respect for Huawei. Some of the people arguing for Huawei however are often ridiculous. I just wish them to know that they aren't helping Huawei look good by replying to every anti-chinese post out there. You're associating Huawei to the level of bickering children.

      Anonymous, 13 May 2024You are a US bot!That'a odd because the phone I used the longest time was an Honor (huawei). My dad has a Huawei today. It's from before the trade war so he has google services and proper Android.

        Anonymous, 13 May 2024No, you're the US bot that keeps on insinuating this p... moreApple products are inferior in many ways.

        Consumers compare pros and cons. To me the cons by far outweigh the pros with Apple products. But I'm not the average user. The phone I owned for the longest time (6 years) was an Honor (huawei).

        Apple didn't become HUGE by being from the US. That's what Huawei bots are mistaken about. Apple got market share by offering a user experience, an ecosystem, simplicity and time saving productivity. Being from China, India, Germany is irrelevant. They became the best product available for a lot of people (not everyone). Huawei and their users should focus on that and not about this "we and them" mentality. It won't help sales.

          The photos are great. But I do feel like there are definitely hints of that "AI" processing going on in some of the details, especially the clouds. Maybe they should crank the processing down a bit.

            Ralf, 10 May 2024Chinese may do their best, but there is no chance to get cl... moreWell, obviously. APS-C is huge compared to 1". They'll never cram that into a phone.

            But it is very possible that phones will slowly increase the sensor size incrementally. If they can increase it to 1.33" (which is essentially micro 4/3rds), you are already left with a VERY capable sensor. If you've seen photos from micro 4/3rd cameras like Olympus or Lumix, they are exceptional.

              Anonymous, 11 May 2024It basically boils down to China is not as dystopian or aut... moreChinese guy here, can confirm that quality of life in China right now is very "free", safe and prosperous.

              Apparently everyone pays by phone now (they use WeChat pay). Not a single person has a card and therefore no wallet. So theft rates have drastically decreased.

                  Find some not biased pages reviewing it, there are already some few English videos that reviewer has the phone, not just translating a video from who knows where. If you don't trust random YouTubers, wait for gsmarena.

                      I like Huawei phones. It's a little expensive, but it's a phone that excites me, which I'll want to experience.

Aluminum + high quality plastic is a hard combination to beat. Titanium might be on the rise but it's expensive. The world's lightest phones aren't titanium.

                          I used to like big display phones but lately I've done a 180 and gone with the smallest and lightest as long as there's a desktop mode. That means that I can plug the phone and get a massive 4k60hz workstation going, all while being extemely portable. I think it's the future. If I had to get a new phone today it would probably be a snapdragon S23 and modify it with 16GB of ram, or a 12GB S24 snapdragon. Once android has it's own desktop mode better than dex, I'd look into switching to that and possibly depart from Samsung. Although the amoleds in their phones are outstanding.

It is insane that manufacturers convinced us that GLASS is good for us ;) Glass breaks = manufacturers make more money. Plastic is better for consumers and worse for manufacturers so they abandoned it.

The SOC is slower than current flagship chipsets due to US meddling and sanctions, but apart from that this phone is a modern flagship in everyway. Would you call the iPhone, which has worse cameras, an inferior product?

                                Anonymous, 12 May 2024How is this phone an inferior product? No. 1 on dxomark and... moreAhh, sorry then. I mistook you for a bot. Bots don't help Huawei because they have zero credibility. Kind of like salesmen, or people that shit post about China. Lots of people can see through that. Engaging those idiots by replying, even if it takes only 1 second, is a waste of time. Show by example. Less talking, make good products and good business and people will notice.

                                I like that too. That they can achieve a smooth experince with a slower SoC. Inferior SoC doesn't mean that it isn't worth buying. Price is relevant here. As long as we're not pretending that it's faster or that the phone wouldn't be even more powerful with a faster SoC.

No. 1 on dxomark and every reviewer praising the smooth performance of the UI and chipset and the quality of its cameras included the zoom lens, bokeh, macro shots and fast shutter speed. No one is being nationalistic in supporting this phone. I'm not a Chinese national and I think this phone is great. Definitely better than an iPhone or Samsung.
