Was trawling AliExpress and XDA over the long weekend. On AliExpress, I saw 2 comments saying the M6 does not have Google Play installed.

Nevertheless, on XDA, I saw someone commenting that Russian users on 4PDA had managed to install Google Play and all associated services so Google works.

For the adventurous, I give you: The Huawei M6 Turbo, with Google Play.

unless the rom specifically blocks gapps, locked bootloader is not the problem. my china redmi phones all run with locked bootloader, china rom and gapps. nowadays getting gapps is as simple as running a "gapps installation" apk. my understanding is there was an issue with a version of M6 rom that made gapps installation impossible, there was a rom update later that fixes it. buying china rom devices are always a risk in this aspect

also, how am i being inconsiderate? was just typing in valley girl speak...no insinuation nor malice. had i ended with a wink wink.gif or "duh"...then i would be
