Huawei Mate 10 users, having never owned a Huawei, but for someone who is definitely interested in the brand and definitely likes what he sees with the Huawei P20 Series.
Why should I choose the forthcoming Huawei Mate 20 over other 2018 flagships eg Samsung Galaxy Note 9 ?
Thanks for your time in advance
Your best bet would be to read and watch reviews and decide for youself.

Absolutely, but has the Mate 10 been a positive experience that people would have no hesitation in owning another Mate Series smartphone. If you know what I mean ?
For sure. This is my 2nd Huawei phone, I had a P9 first then a lot Xiaomi phones in between. So far, I'm very happy with the Mate 10 pro.
This is ridiculous. I bought the freebuds hoping to get the best experience from having same branded phone and earphones. The results were disappointing to say the least. The buds sounded just ok on the phone and i thought i'll update them and hope for the best. To my surprise the mate 20 pro could not find the freebuds to update them. I then decided to try with my HTC u11 Plus. Not only did it recognize them immediately and managed to update them but the sound quality while using my HTC was far superior and i was actually impressed by the freebuds. I then swapped back to the mate 20 pro and was still unable to get them recognized by the freebud app and the sound quality was once again just ok at best. I did have the freebud app set to manual in app launch with everything enabled and still nothing.
The app doesn't work for some reason, I updated the firmware via a different device
Same issue
Hi,
I can confirm the same issue. They need to update the Freebuds Assistant app big time. It's really bad to start with, and now doesn't work with the latest Huawei flagship(Mate 20 pro)!
I'm waiting for Freebuds 2 from China, I jsut hope they'll update the Google Play app to support it, I think I've read something about a Freebuds 2 app, but that was reported as being only available in the Huawei China own appstore.
It doesn't work with the Mate 20 Pro, I tried on my old Nexus 10 tablet didn't work, then I tried it on a Lenovo tablet and it didn't update but said " now you have the latest version"

I've been waiting for the freebuds 2 pro but it seems they have been released under the Honor brand as the Flypods and Flypods Pro.
I am waiting too. The Freebuds were in-ear style which I really like more (the normal ones don't really hold in my ear).
I still think they will bring a new version of the Freebuds.

I'm also waiting for them.
Supposedly they were released yesterday according to XDA. Cant see them on Huawei or Honor's website though https://www.xda-developers.com/huawei-freebuds-2-pro-wireless-earbuds-launch/
I did purchased the Honor units. Pretty good fit and sound quality also pretty good. One cool thing is that the phone can charge the case of the flypods.

By the Way the Huawei FreeBuds 2 are the Honor Flypods Pro. You can check them out at AliExpress. Not sure all features will work in USA
Honor Flybuds
Hi - I just bought the Honor FlyBuds however, I am unable to see the battery and pairing information on the phone screen. I am able to pair them like I would pair any other bluetooth device but from what I have read, the pairing information and battery information should automatically come on screen. I am using a Mate 20Pro, running EMUI 9.0

I'm not using the FlyBuds but the Freebuds 2 Pro I just received. I got no particular popup screen once paired, but the battery level is getting displayed by a small indicator in the status bar, near the Bluetooth icon. In the Bluetooth settings, it's possible to access a couple of device-specific options, such as gestures settings for both earpieces and, apparently, firmware update (there's an option to automatically download updates when on wifi). European Mate 20 Pro, B153.
I can confirm that my LYA-L29 dual sim version Mate 20 pro does not support the so called "prompt" or pop up window that shows the battery status of the case and the earbuds. Maybe the feature is only limited to the chinese variants of the mate 20 pro?
Hey Guys
So I have a Huawei Mate 20 Pro, purchased in the UK.
I am very interested in the Freebuds 2 Pro however as I'm sure your aware they aren't available global yet, only a Chinese version released.
I don't mind ordering the Chinese versions but I just wanted to check if there are any known compatibility issues with a non-Chinese Mate 20 Pro.
I've read about compatiblity issues with phones that do not have Bluetooth 5.0 (Mate 20 Pro does so that's ok), read about issues with the software version having to be above 171 for the HWA to work (my mate 20 pro is over this version).
Is there anything else I need to consider before I make the purchase? Is there going to be an issue with languge in some way? I know there's no display but possibly voice commands or recognition issues for the English language?
Any help would be great, I'm guessing I'm not the only one wondering on a global release date.

Hey
I do have the freebuds 2 pro and a LYA-L29 with 187 firmware.
They fit perfectly with one another.
No issues and better than with my P20 pro.
I really can recommend them.
I think the only disadvantage is the short battery life from about one hour.
But they are very quick rechargeable with its box.

Thanks Orlando, my mate 20 Pro is LYA-L09, not sure what the difference is between the LYA-L29? is it only dual sim difference? I'm running with 187 firmware too, so this is good to hear.
I assume you are located outside of China right?

Yes, it is the dual functionality only.
And also yes. Not in China ?
That is the reason why it is really difficult for me to use the companion app to update the firmware on the buds ?, but thank God there is Google Lens ?

I can't seem to get mine to pair with my P30 Pro. I press the button, white led flashes, nothing appears in the bluetooth list of devices. Any ideas?
Edit: 10 mins later they just appeared with no issue. All seems fine now!
I recently bought some Freebuds 2 Pro, So far i'm impressed with them. They work great with my UK Mate 20 Pro, and i'm on 9.0.0.210.
Audio quality is excellent, but not noticed a difference with HWA turned on.
How is call quality with freebuds 2 pro especially in noisy environments? And what is bone id anyway!
Hey guys, I am new to XDA developer forms and am glad to be here. I am thinking of buying a new smartwatch under 8000 rupees. This is my budget, and under this, as we all know, there are many options. After an extensive amount of research, I have come down to these two watches that could be the ones with good accuracy. Now here I want you guys to please share some of your opinions about what amazfit as a company is and some reviews about the products if you have used any in the past. Thank you so much.
