Huawei Pura 70 Ultra hands-on review

02 May 2024


Sort by:

Overpriced cyber garbage with horrible specs. I ain't paying that much for a so-called "flagship" in 2024.

People around the world just want the better product. Not the product with more fanatics or trolls. It's best not to engage them by replying to them.... which is my mistake right now. 😁

      If you start talking about forbidden topics, do not worry it will be cleaned quickly. You do not need to be in china for that.

        It's going on on youtube, instagram, etc too but think of a much more patriotic version of it. To get censored in the west you need to have "wrong" opinions. 😎

          Anonymous, 06 May 2024Interesting, how do they know you're a Westerner? Do y... moreI like to post positive comments about exciting (to me) products from underdogs. Often that's been chinese products. Not so much western stuff because usually it's super expensive (from a chinese pov, including any westener living here because you see how cheap some solutions can be, why go with an expensive one, unless you're trying to impress others 😁 ?).

          I anticipate that in the future when some affordable stuff will be import, I'd have to write more about that.

          I haven't really had to convince many chinese about great western products. Usually they're quick to realise that it's a cool product way before I find out about it so the discussion is already buzzing.

          Also what's nice about china is that there's a huge community of developers and really knowledgeable people that like to tweak and compile their own stuff and put it out there for people to try. That means that if you're looking for a rare modification, chances are someone is talking about it or working on it.

          So no, I haven't had to write much in chinese. And if I do it's usually about chinese products. I do expect it to change eventually.

              Anonymous, 05 May 2024Is it rootable? Can you unlock bootloader? No? Then it�... moreI also would like to see an unlocked bootloader.

              I don't have one right now and it was hard go get used to it at first (Samsung S20 - US) but I have to say that Samsung did a good job at offering some of the root features now in stock firmware. It helped the transition. I found a great adblocker too so I don't need Adware anymore. Only a few missing features remain for me. Like access to network ports 1-1000. They're locked.

              Anyway, for dumb android devices I'd require root, to tweak them. But for bleeding edge units like flagship phones I think it's easier to make the transition to non-root.

                Vin Aigre, 05 May 2024Are you joking or you really believe what you wrote? No country is without flaws. But you can't deny that if the opposite was happening : westeners passionately defending a western product on a chinese website, many or all of those comments would be deleted. You are enjoying some of the western freedom of speech right now. Please appreciate that.

                (I live in China. I like it and root for the underdog, but I'm not blind to certain things.)

                  It is true that gov is made up by those people but the incentives within gov promote different actions. It changes them. There are a few good clear thinking people there but they're a small minority.
