Guys, I notice something weird with my whatsapp this 2-3 days since bought the mate 8... On my other phone, the message via whatsapp is instantly notified in the phone... But in the mate 8, sometimes I need to open the whatsapp, only then the message will notified... Same case with telegram... Anyone encounter this issue before?

Check under protected apps in the battery manager. Protected allows it to run even when screen is off.

Anyhow, i experienced that on my s6 edge. Sold it off immediately. What telco are u using?

Could it be the camera seems not as sharp because of the display?

Note 5 got awesome reso, thats why looks nicer, sharper, clearer?

I'm using protected apps for disa, yesterday I noticed that I didnt get notification until I went into the app. It had been almost 5 hours. I'm on B170. I did put the phone into airplane mode while I took a nap and whatsapp gave me a notification but Disa did not. Never had this issue with my iPhone or One plus 2

The best way is to transfer the picture to your pc and do a comparison.

Just realised something.

Does your mate 8 wake up when u receive sms/whatsapp or any notification?

Wake up as in the screen lights up.

Secondly, i enable whatsapp to show in lock screen, ntg also hmm.gif



edit : solved for both. just in case u are wondering like me, if u turn on pattern lock for security, u cant have lock screen notifications and it wont turn on screens when received.

Don't have such issue - I'm using pin for security as I'm using finger print sensor. it only allows me to put in this method if i'm using finger print - else if i use pattern it won't allow me to use finger print

Does finger print sensor allow lock screen notification and turns on screen when therr are msgs?

Edit: tried all, only no security allows. Pin, passcode, pattern all dont allow

Yes. But u cant use pattern security lock and u have to enable/allow whatsapp (for example) to show in lock screen. Im getting it now but previously with pattern lock, it doesnt show.

SOT with 6hours above.its good not decent. u know other flagship phone is lower than that.
havent tested with 3rd party charger or powerbank. every phone has different fast charging ability and technology. test from anandtech said that huawei fast charging only works with huawei original charger because of the IC in mate 8. they tested with samsung fast charger but it didnt work because of the IC in mate 8 only detect huawei original charger to enable fast charging.i have posted about this in this thread u have to scroll back.

Yeah already read it. Kind of a waste of hardware that I already have. Well not wasted just slow charging. Decent SOT as in compared to normal use lol. That was hardcore gaming.

700 for dead G4? Not bad I guess.
my G4 stuck in bootloop 2 days ago and warranty is over. I iz really sad.
Saw the Mate 8, but many reviewers said the camera is no good. Eh? Is it really no good?
*

Yeah I was surprised too. The camera is not as good as the G4. It also shoots in 16MP at 4:3 instead of 16:9 like the G4 which I prefer. It's good enough for social media sharing but it's definitely not the best out there.

Its decent enough - i tried to compare IP6+, 1+2 and Mate 8, the mate 8 is quite ok - can't tell the difference much...this was done during late evening time....haven't tried night shots yet

If using for social media - won't be able to tell the difference
