Hello,
I'm in France where Huawei has decide to release only the pro (and lite) version of the Mate 10.
Coming from Mate 9 (which I love), I want to upgrade to Mate 10 standard (notably for its upgraded camera) but not to the Mate 10 Pro, because I hate the screen ratio of the Pro (tested on a friend's phone) and the absence of audio jack.
Anyone understand Huawei commercial restriction over the standard version of Mate 10?
Is the standard Mate 10 available in other European countries (such as the UK)?
Do you know how I could purchase one (L29 version), while still being entitled warranty?
I'm so upset with this marketing strategy.... Do you think Huawei will come to it sense and will eventually release the standard Mate 10 more widely?
It's probably a lost battle, but is there a petition going on on this request?
I wrote to Huawei support about the availability of standard Mate 10 in France but they didn't care answering me... Is there any influential website where Huawei may listen to its customers?
I'm in Australia where both the Mate 10 and the Mate 10 Pro are available, but I still opted to buy mine directly from China because their market is the only one which has the higher-end Mate 10 (non-Pro) with 6Gb RAM and 128Gb storage (i.e., the ALP-AL00). All of the suppliers I've seen on AliExpress perform re-branding to ALP-L29 prior to shipping, and the OTA firmware upgrade I received today confirms that Huawei's servers are treating my 'phone as a genuine unit.
Of course, purchasing from China won't give you local warranty - so if anything goes wrong during the warranty period, you'll have to send it back to China for repair/replacement - but the cost saving was big enough for me to justify the potential gamble. I paid a little over AUD$960 (about 627 Euros) for mine including DHL delivery from this seller and I was so happy that I ordered another one for my son.
I took the plunge and purchased an MI 8 Pro in the last ebay sale with the already reduced Argos offer, as it was much cheaper that the standard MI 8, so am enjoying what seems to be a great device for 360 uk pounds.
With the amount of activity in the standard MI 8 thread I am beginning to wonder if I made the right choice
Needed NFC so the Poco F1 wasn't an option.
Was I the only purchaser or are people elsewhere?
Cheers
I purchased Xiaomi Mi 8 EE which is Chinese version of Xiaomi Mi 8 pro, its simply perfect high performance phone
Cool yes, I was trying to understand the various versions of the MI8 and did wonder if the Chinese variant was the same phone as the UK Pro..
Hey guys,
Between the huawei mate 20x and honor 8x max which do you think is better in terms of price and performance? The mate 20x is expensive. But it has everything the honor 8x max has but at a much cheaper price.
I got 3 questions...
1) Which phone do you guys recommend?
2) Is it a problem installing google services like playstore on the 8x max?
3) Will the honor 8x max get emui 10?

Its such a shame the M-Pen is not supported in the P40Pro+. I used it a lot on my mate 30 pro and do miss it.
Does any other region support it? I'm on a C432 and wondered if it was possibly a region thing or no support across all? So come on Huawei, lets have some M-Pen support again.
i have one mpen from my old mate 30 i will check if it is compatible but i think not.
Confirmed, no M-Pen menu in P40 Pro region C301 setting while Mate 30 Pro has.
Just bought Huawei Mate 20 Pro and keep having trouble paying with NFC
Any ideas?
