QUOTE(Gouki @ Feb 17 2016, 07:00 PM) Email mobile@huawei.com giving them your phone details : Just a simple line to request unlock codeIMEI - first imei is enough Serial Number Product ID : To get this - Bring up the dialer and enter the characters below. An 8-digit ID will then be displayed. *#*#1357946#*#* You might need to remind them few times to respond to your request for unlock code You can write email in English BTW OLD news from Android Central - firmware B156 has already incorporated this Feb 1 security patch http://www.androidcentral.com/huawei-mate-...-security-patch This post has been edited by benny888: Feb 18 2016, 08:49 AM |

Zing Gadget also said that the Mate 8 will be cheaper than the Mate S when it launches in here.

QUOTE(benny888 @ Feb 18 2016, 05:10 PM) Seriously I don't see any problem at all with the 1080p display vs the 2k on my other V10 n Nexus 6P I prefer pay premium price with QHD display. I can buy lower price FHD display device like Xiaomi, Asus and midrange samsung.You need to view yourself to have a better judgement Why i need to pay more for FHD display device? it is not about user experience, it is about how much you need to pay for one device. |

And you'll be surprised to see that how many people have paid premium price for FHD devices like Xperia Z5, R7 Plus, iPhone 6S+. |

And you'll be surprised to see that how many people have paid premium price for FHD devices like Xperia Z5, R7 Plus, iPhone 6S+. As android fan and not a fanboy on single brand, i really care about the hardware and money that phone maker offer. All above is my opinion. let say this device selling around rm3k. if compare with another QHD device, is it worth to buy? with 6" display, u can see clear the different between FHD and QHD. |

Most people are attracted to this phone cuz of its battery life/capacity >> like me who never touched Huawei phones before. Others are bonus. I would prefer if my Nexus 6 have FHD display for better battery life. |

Note 5 have 3000mah battery with QHD display, the SOT average around 4-5hours. 4-5hours SOT already good for normal user.

So it depend what chip they use and how they optimize their software. |

"It depend what chip they us and how they optimized their software". well 4-5hours SOT might not be enough for you but not for everyone who uses phone heavily. Mate8 emphasizes on battery life. Some might think huawei cutting cost for not using QHD screen but FHD on 6inch screen is actually sufficient and the PPI is not really low to begin with.Battery life is not my main concern. 4-5hours SOT already enough for me. Back at my first post, QHD is my choice if i want to pay premium price. The reason you see that the note5 screen more awesome is due to the amoled display being used instead of LCD. Amoled colors tend to be more vibrant. If you wana pay premium price why settle for QHD? go for 4k This post has been edited by crayzee: Feb 18 2016, 07:13 PM |

Not sure where is the extra 20min extra, it's 20hours extra bro, almost an additional 1day standbyTalktime both scores about the same, but the web browsing really tells the whole story. Web display tends to use more white display hence the amoled usually suffer at this point. With the QHD display on the note 5, each of the pixels need to be lighted up to display white. There are more than 1.5 times the pixels to display in QHD than FHD. Another point is that not all SOC are able to get decent performance out of QHD especially in gaming etc, so my guess still stands to the point that FHD is actually balanced for current gen phones. Anything more than that requires more powerful gpu to match with QHD screens. |
