Anyone know if we can mod the SD & SIM card to use 2 SIM + 1 SD card on mate 8?

Mate 7 can do this:

Unlike some of you I only love flip casing on all my phones
However I don't like the supplied unit as it doesn't allow phone to stand up nicely at any angle
I bought 2  alternatives from ebay
*
Mine sharing the link? I too like covers as ppl tend to peak on phone screens.

Oops was editing.

Anyway i was contemplating THIS but the price kinda steep.. more searching. I wanted to see what other options.

Plenty of such at eBay, Lazada, Aliexpress - just do a search yourself to find the ones that appeal to you. I buy most of my accessories from ebay

Latest is B180. Some users complained b180 drained the battery more. For me I don't see any difference at all
If you don't like just flash back b170. Both b170, b180 is a vast improvement over b103 and is a MUST upgrade especially it solves all those buggy notification issues

Is an unfair comparison between them. One is a budget phone while the other is a high end phone

Yeah indeed both in different category, budget vs high end. But there are many similarities for both phones.
Mate 8 will win hands up, no argument bout that. But for daily driver, user experience might close some gap between both phones?

Both got 4k mah battery, fingerprint reader, 16mp/f2.0 rear cam. Just wondering if there's anyone got both phones can give some insight.

What is your current firmware? When I first switched it on I was prompted to update to b170
B180 you had to download it ( check back n search for download link here) n flash it manually. I had described many times in this thread how to flash it
