I'm torn between these two devices. My main concern is battery life.
I know the huawei mate 8 has the best battery life of all time. Wanted to know how the Axon 7 battery life is.
Thanks!

It's 3250 vs. 4000 mAh, so it's obviously not going to as good. From what I've heard, the Kirin 950 is more power efficient than the Snapdragon 820. There's also the matter of how optimized the OS will be, which we have no information on just yet. Really, if you're worried about battery life the most, go with the Mate 8.
FYI, I'm switching from a Mate 8 to a Axon 7. The battery life came along with aggressive PM that stopped music playback, delayed notifications, etc. I'll take the shorter battery life if I don't have to unlock my phone every five minutes to get my music to unpause.

Im just browsing and give 2 craps what phone you chose but dont have those issues.
But its just dumb to compare the Huawei Mate 8 to any regular size device.

Maybe he meant the Honor V8?
In my view about the only thing the Mate 8 has which is better is the 6" screen.
Other than that the axon is at least on par and has it beat pretty especially the speakers and the Snapdragon in it (better development than the kirin in the mate 8)
I wish ZTE had of made the axon 7 the 6" device instead of the low rent device they gave the bigger screen to.
The smallish screen is the only thing preventing me (well the locked BL for now also) from pulling the trigger on the 7...just dont think I will be happy unfortunately.

I find extremely frequently that I want to use my Mate 8 with one hand but can't, thus I actually like the smaller screen. I just wish they'd put in an even larger battery, even if it made it thicker

For me 6" is great, i miss my nexus 6.
The mate doesnt have front facing speakers and there isnt a ton of development for it so i passed on it
Would be nice if Huawei would stop putting their in house kirins in their devices and go with snapdragons...im sure development would really pick up.

It's true that the Kirin is bad for development but i don't see them putting aside their own hardware for something that isn't better (even worse if you look at thermal throttling) in real life usage...

Nah, too small especially when coming from a 5.7" note 3,4,5 nexus 6P and even more so the nexus 6 with the 6" screen. Im just used to bigger screens at this point.
Go big or go home
But there will be different opinions on both sides and neither one is wrong nor right.

I had no issues with the size of the Nexus 6 either and still use it as one of my 2 daily driver phones. It has an excellent weight balance across the device as well, which made it very easy to maneuver around one handed when you have your index finger in the rear dimple.

For now it is but ZTE said its a matter of "when" they will let it be unlocked not "if".
I will wait until it happens personally then go from there.
Ill likely nab a note 7 for my primary device when it goes live in Aug (as long as there is a non edge version) but always buy another device for a secondary play toy, the axon would at this point be a good choice. The zenfone 3 deluxe may give it a run for the money though.

Help me decide guys, what do you think about the mate 9? The v20 only cool thing for me is the wide camera, but the mate 9 looks so nice..
I'm starting to hate LG, the phone is still not released in my country and I'm getting more choices everyday, I hate choosing!
I asked the same thing last week, and didn't get much response.

I'm waiting for the unlocked US996 V20 to come out, and also to see how the Mate 9 stacks up.
there some report that mate9 support sprint but if it really do I will definitely look at it
Great design. This phone lost me at 1080P screen.
Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk
1080p screen = pass imo. V20 wins
Really? At this point anything past 1080p is just a difference in epenis status and brag rights.
The only point in higher resolution is for vr, but because the screen is IPS it wouldn't be supported anyways.
I was worried about the 1080p too, and a lot, but when I checked last year's mate 8, it was still gorgeous, I don't think I'd see a difference without VR
I'm thinking of Huawei Mate 9 because the V20 isn't available in the UK. Can a 1080 screen still be used by Google's daydream?

No problem with the screen resolution.
If Huawei software wasn't that awful, I might consider this Mate 9. But their Emui is unbearable.

Each to their own, Emui is actually very good and the Mate 8 was a mile better than the v10 and I'm hoping the Mate 9 will be better than the v20. A lot of people can't get past the lack of an app drawer on Emui which they've fixed in v5 and you can always download launcher of choice.
I sold my Mate 8 in preparation for buying a Mate 9 and am stuck with my work supplied Oneplus 3 which again doesn't compare to the Mate 8.
What's so good about the Mate 8, battery life, size screen which is subjective I know, build quality etc and the Mate 9 looks like it will only be better in every way.
But, can I wait for the Mate 9 or do I try the v20 for a few weeks......

I looked into the emu i and i do like some of the feature of it but like you said ^ I probably still put Nova on it. Waiting to know if the mate9 work on sprint or waiting on better V20 promo =3....
How does Huawei do software support? My experience is that LG, while they don't provide updates for very long, tend to kick out their updates faster than others (second only to google)

If the past is any indication, LG tends to offer the best promo offers right at first and go down from there. The v10 promo was initially 200gb SD card, spare battery and battery cradle. Then it went to 64gb with extra battery and battery cradle. To just one or the other (64gb or extra battery)
Sent from my LG-H901 using XDA-Developers mobile app
In the battery department they're way different, mate 9 is miles ahead, but I'm kinda sad that all my Qualcomm quick charge accessories will be worthless if I go with the mate 9..by the way google says mate 9 is compatible with Vr.
I'm pretty sure lgs camera is better in low light, coming from S6 which I believe is the best camera yet, I can't downgrade
Thanks! Also, I've seen some Mate 9 photo/video comparisons after Huawei gave the phone to reviewers. The Mate 9 is badly in need of a software update and is obviously not working optimally. (The stabilisation for example, sucks!) So doing any kind of in depth comparison at this point is unhelpful imo, until the software update.

I think some manual tweaking to the camera settings will show what this phone can do.

The Mate 9 specs are now up
http://consumer.huawei.com/en/mobile-phones/tech-specs/mate9-en.htm
while it may work OK on T-mobile and AT&T, it is missing the proper CDMA and LTE 13 bands to work on Verizon.
Still wish they would release a US Unlocked model that would work for all the US carriers.

Long story but I thought my 6p was dying so I snagged an Axon 7 with some Monster N-Pulse headphones from Newegg @ $350 on Cyber Monday. Don't need it but now can't decide if I should send it back or replace the 6p, and Newegg will charge me a 15% restocking fee even if I open the damn packaging. So...
Anyone have thoughts on this phone that has used it? I have V4A on my 6p and am a big audio guy, but I would like to know how much better the Axon 7 audio is vs. the 6p with V4A or ARISE/Dolby, whatever? I've heard the Axon 7 is one of the best audio phones.
Also any other general thoughts on the phone vs. the 6p are welcome. And yes I realize I came to the 6p forum to ask this question lol
6P has better build quality,speakers,more bands for international support, more community support, first to receive updates after the pixel, better camera than axon 7,fast fingerprint senor, ois image stabilization , better support, more security, reliable, QUAD HD AMOLED
axon is basically a mid ranger with a 820 but crappy camera and software

Hello everybody i have mate 9 pro and i was thinking to upgrade to p10 plus , but is it Worth it? The shop said they will buy the mate 9 pro from me for 705$ and the p10 plus costs 684$ so can someone help me to decide?
What perceived benefit do you think you'll get? Apart from microSD I can't see anything... (slightly better camera maybe)
No. Wait for Mate 10 with its Kirin 970. P10 plus definitely not an upgrade to Mate 9 pro which has larger battery and curved Amoled screen. And from the pricing as well, Mate 9 pro is considered by Huawei themselves as more higher range than P10 plus.

A good chance of seeing another 5.5 inch Mate 10pro to compete with Iphone 8 plus and other 5.5inch category phones. Unless Huawei pulls off a bezel less and the screen size become less relevant. Too early to tell. Also rumors of Honor 9 being released in a 5.5inch version in addition to the 5.1inch, in which case it would have a lot similar specs to P10 series but in a different body and cheaper price tag. But with owning a Mate 9 pro, a proper upgrade will be in Mate 10 series which will have the new Kirin 970.
Can't tell you if better than your previous phone only just upgraded from Sony Z3.... Yes I said that right I came from Z3 to the p10+. The camera is better, the internal memory 128gb is better, having Nougat straight out the box is better Z3 was left at early realise of mm, having finger Id is new to me.
The touch screen is a little unresponsive someone's I need touch screen 2 or 3 times before it acknowledges the touch.
The only major downside is I'm unable to root, which up to now all phones I've rooted.
I'm impressed by the phone and battery life, I've had phone for just over 2wks.

It's not really an upgrade, more of a side grade. I've switched from the regular Mate 9 to the p10 plus. Battery life is worse but camera is slightly better especially in low light.
Hi,
I am going to buy a new phone but I can't decide what to buy. I have 3 options. Oneplus 5, Huawei P10 or Huawei Mate 9. Since all of them really powerfull I focused on camera, design and battery. Which one should I buy?
Oneplus 5 has a great camera. The Huawei P10 is no slouch either.
I am not a fan of the Huawei Mate 9 design, I lean more towards the P10 and OnePlus 5.
The battery life on OnePlus 5 is excellent I'm getting about 7 to 8 hours of screen on time.
PS. I'm not a fan of the stock launcher on Huawei either. I would want to change it to Nova launcher really quickly.
I would get the OnePlus 5 but I am obviously a bias on the matter. All in all they are great options, and I don't think you would be disappointed in any of them.
You could try the honor 9. It sounds really good too. The camera seems to be focused on being high powered. I'd go for that one as opposed to the other Huawei phones you mentioned
It comes down to what you want. Do you want stock-ish android with tons of custom rom support? And the easiest bootloader unlock on android (Will grow even more in the future) or are you okay with the bloated emui with next to no ROM support?
I have a oneplus 5 and my mom a mate 9. Emui constantly nags her about shutting down nova launcher amongst other apps. It won't even allow her to open them at certain points. And it has very, VERY aggressive ram management.
Now they're both extremely fast phones with great cameras ..
The mate 9 is significantly better at battery life.. But my oneplus 5 will get me through the day for sure. The mate 9 would bee more like a day and a half.
It really comes down to what you want. You should give us some more information on your preferences.

Thank you very much! One day in long usage is fine. Mate 9 is really big and heavy. Also I have to change it's region after I buy it beacuse i can't buy it with official warrenty. Region change is hard because of bootloader and there aren't much developers.
What about P10? I can buy P10 with official warrenty. Price of P10 and Oneplus 5 are almost same here.

Honestly, there's no comparing the ease of using the oneplus 5 to any huawei device with region changes/ bootloader unlock/ dev community.. Personally I give the edge to the oneplus for simplicity. There's no hoops you have to jump through to operate your phone. The mate 9/p10 are all hoops.. My mom can't get updates on her mate 9 because she lives stateside..
Again, I think the battery size the mate 9 or p10 have over the oneplus 5.. But if you're charging every night, it won't make a difference. Furthermore, the availability of dash charge accessories is more widely available than the mate 9 super or turbo charge accessories.
Don't get me wrong, both are great phones, but really, the oneplus offers a better software experience I think, which is the most important part I think..with So many other aspects being so close.
4k eis on oneplus 5 is incredible btw..

Huawei P10 has 3200Mah battery. I think OnePlus 5's battery goes more than P10's. Am I correct?
The camera of p10 is better imo, it can take black and white shots etc. Also it has official Huawei warrenty.
Battery is more important for me so I think I will go for OnePlus 5. Thank you very much for that great informations.
Lastly I heard OnePlus5 outdoor brightness is not enough, what do you think about it?

Actually, the outdoor brightness is surprisingly good! The OP5 has a screen that seems very similar to the S8, in terms of brightness and colors (my opinion). It's a really good Super Amoled screen compared to the rest of the Flagships aside from Samsung.
Maybe you get biased thoughts, since you are on a 1+5 forum.
I was in the same doubt as you, between 1+5 and Mate 9.
What I discovered reading many threads and watching many videos is:
- Mate 9 takes better photos, has better sunlight legibility (besides being amoled, 1+5s screen under sunlight sucks), have better battery life (slightly, because SD835 is very power efficient), have better audio recording and video recording, have better loudspeakers and better cell signal reception.
- 1+5 is faster (not by a big margin), is lighter and not bulky (Mate 9 is very big), have better WiFi performance and much better community development.
Android O is on schedule to Huawei phones, but certainly will come much faster to 1+5.

Actually, the outdoor brightness is surprisingly good! The OP5 has a screen that seems very similar to the S8, in terms of brightness and colors (my opinion). It's a really good Super Amoled screen compared to the rest of the Flagships aside from Samsung.

Maybe you get biased thoughts, since you are on a 1+5 forum.
I was in the same doubt as you, between 1+5 and Mate 9.
What I discovered reading many threads and watching many videos is:
- Mate 9 takes better photos, has better sunlight legibility (besides being amoled, 1+5s screen under sunlight sucks), have better battery life (slightly, because SD835 is very power efficient), have better audio recording and video recording, have better loudspeakers and better cell signal reception.
- 1+5 is faster (not by a big margin), is lighter and not bulky (Mate 9 is very big), have better WiFi performance and much better community development.
Android O is on schedule to Huawei phones, but certainly will come much faster to 1+5.

Thank you very much you all! I ordered 1+5 and it will arrive today. I think it's the best option for me.
