Mate 8 is my new Mate... Farwell Note 4... - Mate 8 General

Hi guys,
i'm brand new here and I just wanna say that I got brand new Huawei Mate 8 (3 GB RAM, 32 ROM). I've sold my Note 4 (910F) and so far... I'm so happy! I was scared at first but now... WOW!
Huawei is that what I was looking for. It is blazing fast, astonishing phone with multiple options that I wanted.
First of all EMUI is WAY MUCH prettier than ugly TouchWiz. I got everything what I wanted - for example Theme support. My note 4 is sooo old that samsung wont provide theme engine for my touchwiz. Thank you samsung for that btw...
Second of all - its blazing fast ! Way much faster than TW from Samsung. Less ram leak, apps are loading faster. I really like this speed... Afret flashing clean rom on samsung it was never that fast. Dunno why, its just this.
And battery life - 92% from this morning. Not bad for 6"0 inch screen. Maybe its less colour, maybe its not EPICULTRAHD resolution, but who cares... its a phone, not a TV.
Im glad that I've become a Huawei family member. It was a good chocie.
So - hello guys. I'll try to do my best to help you with your phone problems and I hope you will help me.
Good morning Huawei!

Coming from the galaxy s5 i can kind of say i know the spot you were in. Samsung phones are extremely expensive but you get very little for such a high price. Compared to the galaxy s7, the huawei mate 8 beats it in everything but camera. Honestly though, its a phone not a Nikon. The speed is due to the CPU of the phone being an in house item. Huawei made the CPU themselves so they can make the necessary optimizations to run android how they want it to run. I suggest picking up a case for the phone. Screen protector is optional. It comes with one but it has Gorilla Glass 4 on it so scratching the device would be quite difficult unless one was doing so on purpose. I suggest rooting this device and swapping the kernel governor to something other than the stock interactive governor. I use ondemand because it really gets that CPU where you want it to be and saves battery at all costs. Other than that if you have rooting trouble or unlocking trouble there are some nice threads to do a bit of looking around. Enjoy the phone!

Thanks bro for the reply. Im not sure if I will loose my warranty... I did it with samsung and my glass broke on it (famous screen delamination, i got same **** in note 2, now note 4) and they told me to FU because of 0x1 knox...
My phone came with a plastic protection on the back (they attached it) and glass protector on the front. <3 them for this.
Can i root my huawei and not loose warranty?
I used for a few weeks MIUI system, and I miss some options - for example creating my own profile for battery (turn off 4G/LTE, battery saver profile etc running from 12am-6am)

Love my mate 8. If the honor note 8 is anything close I'm buying. Need my 2k res back.

I am running both the Note 4 and Mate 8. Love my Mate 8 though. Battery life for the Mate is an easy 3 days for me. Note 4 is only 2 days generally.

After 3 days of using (normal use for me, sometimes internet, sometimes making some calls and texting some messages) i got 16% and i cant discharge it ! I gave up and plugged it into a charger. IT AMAIZING how long can it live!
Note 4 was dead after day and a half. Max !
I would make some changes in this phone, but still - i love it!

indeed, the only changes id want to make were software-based and thats easily taken care of with custom roms and mods

Here is where we stand
Look here

Replacement for my Mate2
My Huawei Ascend Mate2, little over 2 years old....LOVE IT still. Still getting 2 days battery life.
Using STOCK 5.1, Nova Launcher Prime, buttery smooth, but I think it's about time for an update.
Now that the Mate8 has dropped to a reasonable price. Might be time to pull the trigger and upgrade?
Stable, long battery life and good camera quality is what I usually go for.
I know the Mate8 will be stable & long battery life. How's the camera quality?
I don't use the stock camera app, just Camera FV-5 full version.

I've had a Mate2, SD400, 13mp camera. With the default camera app, it's "not bad", but with Camera FV-5, it's pretty good.

Pulled the trigger
My Mate8 will be here Tuesday the 30th of August.
My Mate2 will be retired. It's more than EARNED it!
Hopefully the 8 will be as solid and as STABLE as the 2 is.

welcome to the fold, my friend which model / storage & ram config / color did u go for?

I just bought the phone, don't have it yet.
As for screen protectors/cases etc, I've never used a screen protector or case
in the last 10-15 years. I use a belt pouch, and bluetooth, so there isn't any need
for protection. Let you know Wed-Thur how it goes.

i understand, but u surely know which color, storage and ram config you bought?

Here alpha vs P7 ( P7 is slightly brighter than mate7 )

Please come back when you have seen the note 4 display. It is superior to every thing out there. You will we no micro Dots since it is a 2k display.

Well i'll bee keeping coming and I won't see note 4...
Well am not bothered since it isn't coming up phone.. I am not interested in sam mobiles.. always had only problems with them in past (in HW way)
And in future I will be interested in OLED screens ..
For now IPS - BEST
I like the wrap-around glass, If that's what I see. I'm afraid though, the design is not special enough. I have to wait to see the materials but - it's beginning to look a little generic! I hope it rocks because I'm dying to get my hands on it.
You see, the S6 is looking nice, and the HTC-M9 is solid as usual.
I don't know....I really enjoyed the double glass of the P7, and the slim, perfectly proportioned P6. I don't see anything differentiating the P7. In fact, those rounded corners at the bottom look a bit like the *gasp*...the HTC!

Well I know that pic above is rumor or it will be compl. different once released, but ... I've seen leaks of P8 too and I already seen bits and I have feeling am slowly falling in love with P8 it will be BEAST and that design ! nice bottom slim 6mm flat ..
Another clear pictures
Those picture were on the net late december as remember seeing them.
could be just general stage of in-house prototype development rather than any current build they doing to follow up on the mate 7, time will tell I suppose ...
LINK: Rumor: Huawei’s Mate 8 Phablet Might Launch Later Than Expected
Android Headlines has a rumor story about the Mate 8 possibly not being released until next year, due to them wanting to focus their energy on the P8.
The Mate 8 is still thought to be coming out late in the year, so hopefully this rumor is false.
I think the real reason for the delay, is that they want more time to develope a more powerful follow up processor.
Another reason is that their new upcoming D8 model could be seen as a mate 8 mini. It features Kirin 950, but also a 2K display and 5.2 inch.
I think many of the people who still doubt about the 6 inch size mght prefer the D8. It has the same design as Mate 7 but smaller size.
as a power user I still think the Kirin 950 update to the D8 is very welcome... but since it has 2K display I am worried about lag and battery performance.
Samsung has proven a 2K display can consume not much power, but the question is if huawei can do the same.
Otherwise I think D8 have a big potentical... might become a big seller... 6 inch phones are still a niche market atleast here in Sweden.
It is not an optimal size really, but if they can improve screen to body ratio it would be a step in the right direction. It is the outer messurements that matters,
and huawei and LG is the only two companies who focus on the screen to body ratio. This is an essential focus if you are going to do a big size smartphone.

Am looking forward to see P8 .. Thinking of buying it .. (will keep mate7 as well)
According to a leaked road map from hisilicon, kirin 950 will be released in q4, kirin 940 in q3. Just like the upcoming d8 will have kirin 950 I think mate 8. Ost likely have to. In other words... We can expect a q4 release.
Snapdragon and also another company are working on fingerprint scanner that works on the screen surface.. So yeah this type of fingerprint scanner that is used in mate 7 or iPhone have no future.. . They will all be inside the glas soon... It most likely will happen next year though.. .
I love the look of my mate 7, and the mate 8(if that's the mate 8 anyways) looks really nice, upgraded. This for me is the best style on a phone so far I have used, and I have used all the best phones out there as i phones, notes, Galaxy's, htc's etc. Anyways, the point is that it looks really upgraded, and nice, love it.
What I expecting is that M8 will have no black borders around display.. and that would be awesome..
somebody copying mate 8!
http://www.gizchina.com/2015/03/17/phablet-version-of-the-nubia-z9-max-photos-published
so all these so called "Mate 8" pictures we have seen was this ZTE model.
The similiarties is very pathetic...
Regarding the top of the phone, I am pretty sure they use the exact same front camera and ear speaker too.
Looks identical to Mate 7. The back is very similiar too. Maybe superior speaker though..it looks bigger.
Probably same finger print scanner ? screen to body ratio is worse...

Huawei P8 Max !

Guys check this out even bigger than Mate 7
Beautiful

here is commparsion of all 3 incl Media pad x2 : http://www.devicespecifications.com/en/comparison/8c872b2c8
it is too big... mostly too wide... 1 centimer more wide 3 centimeter higher....
A 5.5 inch mate 7 with even more slimmed body to screen ratio would be perfekct I think!
So now with the P8 max lunched, we will not have an Ascend Mate 8?

Don't know I think P8 Max is replacement of Mate 7 .. But maybe not as they introduced Kirin 940 and 950 still for this year ..
Are we getting the new EMUI 3.1 ? With camera app updates ? :'(
I'd like to have that camera in my Mate 7 ... though to be honest, the Mate 7's camera performs much better than I anticipated, and I'm usually very happy with the results.
The trouble with smartphones is, your new model will *always* be outdated a year after it's come on the market. There will *always* be something newer and better. The Mate 7 is still and will be for at least another year or two a strong performer.
Also ... 6.8" ... really? That's almost the size of the MediaPad X2, and that thing is a monster ... but then again, a couple years ago we thought 5" phones were monsters ...

Prefere mate 7 size, its perfect. Be nice just to have something very similar later this year with just hardware upgrade.

I agree. The size of the HAM7 is almost the sweet spot for a phablet. Not too big, but big enough. A better HAM7 would just have better specs and materials. A more power efficient Processor and GPU. A bigger battery if they can squeeze it in. it would be cool if they can make an active version like Samsung. I don’t care if take out the scanner to do this. Good luck with Huawei to win new buyers!

Am drooling just thinking about this P8 Max as have been waiting for eternity for this screen size. There was rumour of chinese one last year (Hisense) but it was never launched, so waiting eagerly for this. A Z-ultra user.

The camera did get a lot of "****" in reviews of Mate 7, but that was because the camera was simply 1 year behind the competition, but it means also that the camera performs as the top end of phones one year ago... Samsung with its s6 is probably one year behind all other phones on the market now.

Huawei Mate 9 leaks in high resolution images 2 days in advance of release.

The Huawei Mate 9, which will be officially announced this month, has appeared in high resolution leaked photos showing the final unit with Leica-engineered dual-camera setup.
The leaked photos are consistent with material that's surfaced previously, showcasing a big metal smartphone with a dual-camera setup, accompanied by a dual-LED flash and laser autofocus module.
The handset is rumored to have a 5.9-inch display with 1080p resolution and is to be powered by the Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 960 flagship-tier processor, paired with up to 6GB of RAM and up to 128GB of storage. The Huawei Mate 9 allegedly runs Android 7.0 Nougat skinned with the manufacturer's EMUI 5.0 interface.

Agreed.
Plus, the Kirin 960 isn't much faster as well (for non-gamers that is as the GPU-side however is massively quicker (but current games run just fine on the 950 as well, imho)) and pretty expensive so will hold onto the Mate 8 for the time being :good:
it is all about the price about this one, I am also disspointed with the camerabump and camera modul, it looks not very stylish and not up to huawies recent standards.
I am a gamer so for personally k960 is very much neeeded. The picture abouve I still see black borders against the screen this is disappointing, I think otherwise Nubia Z9 has done very good with this and I wish all other manufactures would do the same to create borderless screen
The leaks seem to be getting confirmed (or thrown out) as the 4th approaches. On a Note 4 (but running Note 7 softwate) and have a ROM'd MediaPad X2 (which was a PITA to update) . So I like rooted Huawei devices with new ROMs so looking at 3 very different devices:
In the spirit of the thread, my first pick
- Mate 9 mostly for the great devs here. Nougat would be a bonus, and hopefully chainfires work can be brought over. Not global (or including 4g then off the list.
- LeEco LePro 3 with flash rebate it is absurdly affordable and reasonably reviewed as a whole. Only 5.5 is a real deal thinker. 5.9 on the Mate much better by leaps and jumps ahead.
- Lenovo Phab Pro 2 out (for ordering) now, but holding for the Huawei intro press conference on the 4th. Bigger (like the 6.4), much less performance wise.

Assuming this will be available in the US on the Huawei website as an unlocked version you can use in the US?
Opinion on it being my next phone over my Nexus 6p?
Two sensors (20MP+12MP) 4K video + OIS, new CPU, new GPU, Android 7.0, IR blaster, USB Type-C. Good update over Mate 8.
"Porsche Design" will be not for everyone. Especially design quite like Samsung - front main button ... and price of course.

Hi guys

and will it get EMUI 5.0 update beside the Android N update or it will stick with 6.0.1
and does it have now EMUI 4.1 ?
Mate 8, I am sure you will love it!
Android 7 is also coking soon.

He have only one problem, unlock bootloader is not easy and you and you will have to pay 4 € / $...Unless you do not want to do it, but you will have some Chinese content, otherwise, mate 8 is the only phone which never heats, but then really never, the games on, turn much better than on an s7 edge (or any other android phone except the mate 9 ^ ^ and maybe iphones)
And with this, the battery is crazy, i have 264 user apps and have no lag...crazy...and i have try Emui 5.0, it's more good than 4.1, but i want root to restore my data so i stay on emui 4.1 (Kangvip 368 is the best for me)

I was a big fan of Samsung phones. I got Note 4 which was flagship... and then I got Mate 8. And then I realize that there is no phone. Just Mate. For sure.
This phone is like Black Pearl from Pirates of the Caribean. SO fast, so good. And everyone wants to have it
And samsung flagship is like a fishing boat.
Thats everything i got to say here. BUY OR DIE!

Dude, you'll only gonna find mate 8 fans here. The choice, ultimately is yours. Look at phone specs/cost/performance and you'll know which phone to go for.
Cheers!

battery in Mate 8 and screen bro. worth 100 usd more.

How do you peeps like your RN7? Amazon says it's 8oz which doesn't make sense

Hey guys,
I have the Mate 9 which doesn't seem to be getting any support so I might has well jump to a device that is getting updates and on PIE etc.. How is the camera, battery life(I get almost days ish). I'm thinking about the Moto G7 also. If you guys could buy any similar phone what else is good around this price?
I can't say much right now about my Note 7 since I have it only for 2 days (as of writing this) & wasn't able to deplete the battery yet. For a comparison to my Galaxy S5, it definitely runs A LOT smoother & faster, even on MIUI which, as we know, isn't the lightest. The camera definitely takes good pictures, but one thing that bugs me is no support for 4k video recording... Even my damn S5 has that & it's from 2014 I've bought my Note 7 in the 4/128 variant so I definitely have quite some room to spare on both fronts & it shows. Can keep more than 2 apps at a time suspended in RAM as opposed to my S5, where it wanted to kill itself when one app was bigger (like a game for example). I can't complain much about the Note 7, it's definitely a solid phone for the price (especially in the best variant), but one thing I kind of miss when compared to the S5 is the lack of an AMOLED screen. Yes, black colours look great, but they aren't as deep as on the other phone + you get that typical IPS silver glow on the screen, which is really noticable especially at night when looking at something with black backgrounds. To be honest, I would recommend the Note 7 over the phone you have, it will definitely make you happy (as it did for me, really love it) & you will also receive OS update for quite some time
If it's anything like or better then my note 5 then I will love it
I've only just ordered mine and it hasn't been delivered just yet but when it does get here I will let you know
Moto G7 is garbage compared to a Redmi Note 7.
Less battery, less perfomance, less camera.
The only things it has better are slightly better water resistance and band frequency support.
Now about the Redmi Note 7:
Camera is pretty good, i use stock camera to get daylight photos and Gcam for night shots because stock cam night mode is awful.
As for battery i get about 9-10hrs os SOT with a balanced use(1-2hrs of gaming and 4-5hrs of video streaming).

Yeha, I wanted to see how much SOT I can squeeze out after the very first full charge (had the phone for 4 days now) & I'm amazed. My previous phone was getting only 3,5h SOT consistently
In this price I think RN7 is the champ, my kenzo died the other day so I have to buy a new one, and I pick this one. I charge the phone once every four days but I'm not a heavy user. I don't use the camera so I can't give an opinion over it. Also it runs perfectly DS games, the only kind of gaming I did. Rom wise I'm over MIUI.eu and works pretty nice, no custom kernel or anything only magisk and a few modules. Overall is a very nice phone for that money.
I really like mine. Great battery, very good camera, all the speed I need since the only games I play are puzzle style. Screen is good too. Supports the LTE Bands that I need. All for a really low price.
The worst MIUI issues are solved by using a better launcher.
I liked it so much I bought one for my wife as well.
Thanks everyone. I made the mistake of buying my friends OnePlus 6t but I got a good price. The screen is always dimmer than my mate 9 and the headphone sound quality doesn't compare to my mate 9. Maybe I'll order the note 7 so I can compare all 3. I don't like that the oneplus doesn't have a headphone jack anymore. I wish I knew someone near me I could see their note 7.

The headphones audio quality of the Note 7 is not good at all, atleast with my Audio Technica M40x's. With my old Sony XB 450's, it's decent but not great

Such headphones are not meant for this phone. Try lower impedance ones and it should be fine!
I use iphone earbuds so those should be low impedance right?
