huawei mate 9 or v20?

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.

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?

im going just be pushing 720p and 1080p video on it... I dont need 4k on a phone...

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)

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.

I've yet to see a camera comparison between the V20 and the Mate 9. But from what I've seen individually, it looks like the V20 may do better with both pictures and video.

Exactly, I don't know why no one does this, camera and battery are my biggest deciding factor

Who all is buying it?

So who all's planning to buy the OnePlus 5? What do you think of the recent leaks and rumors?

If it has 5.5" - 6" FHD display with a bezeless design without 2.5D glass, a dezent battery (3600mAh+) and headphone jack i will buy it.

What he said!!! 100%

Hola
I am worried about the rumours talking about this version being among the thinnest phones on the market. If this is true then based on recent trends it usually means a smaller battery. This will certainly be a deal breaker for me assuming this is true...
Let's see what they come up with.

I'm buying it for sure

Depends if it has a 1440P screen. I don't want them to go 1080P pentile again. I have a 3T I just got so I'm not in a big hurry. The snapdragon 835 isn't a huge increase in speed over the snapdragon 821.

Oh so very close to buying it. Depends slightly on specs, and more if the Bank of Wife™ will finance it for Fathers day

I'd buy it if they have astounding results with it. The camera leaks sound great, larger battery 3600+ should be ok (i have confidence in them increasing the battery because they stuffed 400mAh into the same size chassis for the 3t i think they can do more), 1080p AMOLED screen, Snap 835 or 850, alert slider again, awesome fingerprint scanner like the 3t even the same one would be perfect no complaints there, good speaker or speakers dont care where they are as long as they arent on the back, stronger vibraton motor AND that headphone jack better stay put. If it doesnt i wont mind, i use my bluetooth headphones more anyways. If its under 500 or at 500 ill buy it.

Why do you want a 1440p Screen?

Waiting to see if they add a better DAC/AMP combo the Axon 7 Audio was no joke for it's price if OP can improve it for the OP5 I'll pick it up

I'm considering it. I'll have to take a look at the final product and if it's killer I'll go for it. It'd have to really be an upgrade from the OnePlus 3. If the differences are not that big then it won't be worth the buy.

Can't wait to get my hands on this bebe!! gonna be sweet.

I came to oneplus from the Note 7 and I'm likely to get the Note 8 when it comes out. I"m keeping my eye on this one as runner up in case the international Note 8 cant be rooted.

Will buy if,
a - Good battery life
b - Non rattling vibrating motor
c - better camera
d - Improvements in the UI / features
e - headphone jack
f - IP68 rating

I like 2.5D glass, i like the leaked design, in black, hope for 1440p display if it's amoled.. and good battery. I'm in.

flagship killer price, not flagship price, and im in..

Can't wait til it's released. Hopefully the camera will be as good as they say it is.

Agree with everyone here! I don't mind if the phone comes with an FHD screen because I really don't see any difference between FHD and QHD. As long as they keep it affordable, there will definitely be a purchase from me.

LG G6 or HTC 10

Can't decide between the two.
Love HTC for Viper Rom and rooting
G6 seems like a great phone but no root for the dual sim version.
Both around £320

It's a shame LG dual SIM devices never got much development...
The 10 is a fantastic device, built like a tank, and feels much, much sturdier than the G6. Great audio, with fine tuning on the jack, as a result with good headphones, the 10 might even be better than the Quad Dac G6. I have both right now, it's a dilemma picking one over the other. I might keep the 10, I don't trust myself and I'm really concerned about breaking the glass back of the G6. I really like the wide camera but I don't take that many pictures. Every day performance is the same, they both fly. The small bezel design is very attractive though. Hard choice, I must admit... I didn't help much.

I'm debating this myself soon. If the G6+ comes to the US and I can get a good deal on it through a carrier I will likely go with the G6 because I have the G5 and have been very happy with it. But if it doesn't, I want that quad dac and the 10 is built like a tank. If I can get a deal I might get the 10.

I just got my G6 yesterday. Coming from an S8.
The G6 feels extremely secure in the hands compared to the S8. Much more sturdier. It rightfully so deserves the military grade it has.
Ive owned the HTC 10 from last year, and don't remember much about it.
It was a very great phone that felt nice due to the build. Audio quality was second to only the V20 I had.
Nothing wrong with the phone at all.
I'd take the G6 over the 10 for these reasons alone
- ip68
- audio from US version is acceptable. Actually very good. Not V20, but slightly lower. Better than the S8.
- the screen tech is welcoming. HDR and Dolby Vision.
- 821
- overall great bargain for the price I paid of $380USD

Screen and camera of the G6 blows away the 10, Audio on the 10 blows the G6 away.
So HTC 10 - Audio and sturdyness (Tank), Camera and waterproof but Fragile (No way military spec sorry) G6.

How the 3rd party seller sell their products low price compare to the official price?Are those factory refurbished phone?

Would you change the G6 for an S8+?

Well my questions is that, now that you know how G6 works and performs would you change it for an S8+
Why yes why not?:good:

No way. The s8's fingerprint reader and curved screen are deal breakers even independent of each other.

Never!
The G6 has a lot of more durability than the S8+, a better camera (dual camera), a better camera app (manual video mode) and a better performance (yes, LG UX is better than Samsung's "new" Grace UX). The only thing is the design, but that's just only reason for spending lots of money...
And ... the G6 is a lot cheaper than the S8+.
I hope I helped you and sorry for my bad English.

I changed my G6 for S8. But I cannot say that S8 is better. It is just a different.
LG G6:
+ It looks more like a real phone not like a toy. You don't have the feeling that it can be easily damaged.
+ Better grip.
+ Colors are looking natural on LCD than AMOLED.
+ Lower night battery drain.
+ Wide angle lens is an useful feature.
+ Price is lower
+ Fingerprint much more comfortable.
- Battery slightly worst than on S8 on my regular usage. On LG G6 - 5h SOT, S8 - about 6.
- Inconsistent results on the main camera. Sometimes the pictures are oversharpened and don't look real. Especially when you have some contrast scene e.g. trees and the sky. Trees will look like a 'copy paste'. Everything is to sharp. Undesirable when you make a photos of people. In general the pictures are too processed.
Example from Forbes :
S8, G6 , but note that this is a cropped photo.
Don't take the speed into consideration because you will not see the difference between these phones. Both are super fast.
S8+ is too big and too expensive. I would consider the choice between G6 and S8.

Not for anything else than curiosity. But you know what they say about that..
Both are pretty similar though. More a matter of personal taste. I like the more subtle design of the G6 over the S8 which took it too far in my opinion.

The camera part is what make me think of changing it or not, sometimes photos are good and some other not so good. plus the camera glass lens scratch so easy, and autofocus is slower...
Now that you have the S8, is it worth the change?

I changed because of the camera. Autofocus is not a problem. It was a lot faster than on my old galaxy s6. Only the quality of photos. In fact, this is only the software issue because you will have a great results with G6 camera making photo in RAW and editing on the computer. In my case, I just want to have a satisfied photos on auto mode.
For me it was worth to change. Everything depends also on your budget. If the difference in price is acceptable for you, go for S8. You will be satisfied with both phones but if there are some doubts that will be allways in your head - maybe it is better to change...

If the S8 is rootable...yes. My LG G6 can't be rooted and thats my only big issue with it.

I've considered trading my G6 for a S8+, mainly to get a larger screen. But I prefer the more robust construction on the G6, and the wide angle lens is a huge plus.
Paying so much more for the S8+ just ain't worth it, and I'm honestly surprised it's such a big seller compared to the G6. I guess it's probably because the Galaxy series is like the iPhone of the Android world.

Negative. Traded my S7 for the G6. Handled the S8 in store, nice form factor but the finger print sensor location and the curved screen just aren't for me. And after having the S7 for a couple months totally turned me off to Samsung phones in general. I actually hated that phone.

Why not? S8 plus has bigger screen, reliable camera, better processor (huge plus) and great display all in all with amazing screen to body ratio.

I didn't take price into consideration. I just think it is better than G6. If you buy phone based on pricing only then you would say oneplus and Axon phone are good. Here I am talking about the best phone in market. It has to be Samsung S8 plus. It is just my opinion. Price is different story all together. If something is cheap then there must be some compromises for sure. It is a fact.
Sent from my LG V20 using XDA Labs

I have G6 and S8 both (at the moment)
G6:
More realistic colors on an IPS panel
Knock on
Better place for FP sensor
Flat screen and more classic body design
S8:
Notification LED
Better camera (yes G6 has a good one too. But you get less processing specially on the edge of contrasting colors on S8)
Better front camera (Much better)
Samsung UX has a more modern look (compared to those outdated colors and icons on LG), more features (floating windows, continuous screenshots, etc) and a little less lags after a few months.
All of these are based on my opinions and experience. At the end of the day, It's more of a personal choice.

If you don't care about photo, flat screen with glass protection possibilities for little money and fluidity… yes

Should i buy a OP5 or LG G6?

Both phones are around 420€. G6 european version has no wireless charging and DAC. I can't decide which device to buy because I had G5 and it has many hardware problems like GPS, screen retention, camera focus problems and my power button is not functional (fingerprint scanner also doesn't work anymore). Does OP5 has some problems like this?
EDIT: what about the jelly effect on the OP? Anyone has it and it is annoying?
Thanks in advance

LG G6 has lower specs, not bad but the OP5 is better there. If you buy the OP5 you don't have IP68 or the new aspect ratio and screen. Both are incredible phones, but I recently change my V20 for the OP5. Why? Because the lack of support from LG, only trhee security patches in almost 6 months with that phone. Horrible, and I mean HORRIBLE front facing camera and the worst of all; screen retention. So far I'm more convinced with the OP5 than the V20. For me LG phones never again.

G6 doesn't have screen retention.
G6 screen is better than the one from 1+5. Surely under sunlight you will be able to use the screen on G6 as viewfinder while taking pictures outside. On 1+5, this will depend on how hard is the sunlight. Photos on G6 will surely be better than on 1+5. Another thing, your European G6 got official bootloader unlock. There are many VERY good developers on G6.
Otherwise, 1+5 is the fastest phone on the market and has the best developer community of all.

Yeah g5 has some good developers too but if you unlock the bootloader of g6 warranty will be void. OP5 you can still get warranty if you unlock your bootloader.

Ihad the same dilema, and in the end in went with op5. I dont regret a second

I had the same dilema too, but the lg was too expensive, so i didnt think it a lot.
Processor: I had a snapdragon 821 with the OP3T, the 835 is way better, i mean in speed is almost the same, but you can see (mostly in games) that the 835 is not being as demanded as the 821, you get an amazing battery life doing anything, the phone does not throttle at all, the op3t throttle to 1,4Ghz and 1,2Ghz (big and little cores respectively) while gaming. The 835 stays cool all the time, im not exagerating, the phone is not even warm., maybe a little bit. I get much better battery with the op5 that has 100mah less than the 3t.
Camera: I'm not sure but i guess that the g6 is better, and the wide angle pictures are awesome, i prefer the wide angle rather than the setup on the op5. And the wide angle front camera is a nice feature too, i dont know about the quality of wide angle pictures.
Charging: Dash charge is awesome, as far as i know dash charge is better than quick charge (it doesnt heat).
Screen: The screen is better in the lg g6 (although i prefer 1080p displays), that huge screen and almost no bezzels are awesome, i love it. The screen on the g6 is HDR, i didnt read about it but you should check it out.
Battery: same 3300mah, but i guess that the lg g6 display will use more battery.
Support: Official support will be almost the same, but unofficial (community) it's way better on the op5.
I guess that's all. Sorry for my bad english!.

Had wireless chargin on my nexus 4. Never looked back when I switched to oppo find7
Keeping same technology on my op5

i change my phone also because i had hardware problem on my LG (lg gpro 2013). did i change it because it was slow? no. because wifi/bt/cellular signals were very low. new digitizer was imprecise and notification light stop working.
G6 seems a good phone, the camera is amazing ( see gsmarena tests).
at the end, im looking for a durable phone because i hate the overconsumption trend right now. this is stupid ie go from op3t to op5. ( btw its not because of money, my job pay for it )

I own a LG G6 (64gig dual SIM DAC version) but I will be trading it in for a OP5 soon. Although the LG wide angle camera is great and the phone runs fine I'm missing root and the monthly updates that I got on my OP3.

Coming from OP3, I have tried LG G6. But I quickly switched back to OnePlus. I didn't like the feel of LG's fingerprint sensor, though the position on the back is quite handy. Battery life was so-so, overall speed good. Great screen, better than OP5. Picture quality of wide angle camera needs improvement. LG has no notification LED and not mute switch, for me very disappointing, and I didn't like the always-on-feature. Community is nothing (yet) like Oneplus, and in the end I'm quite happy now with my OP5, may trade it for the 128GB version though.

Was in the same dilemma as well and in the end I choose the OP5.
Sure G6 surly would be a good choice also but the locked bootloader (with warranty void - aka. need unlock code from LG) was a deal breaker for me.

I tried both and sold my lg g6. It was lagging in all games and not fast in gaming at all. Oneplus 5 to go.

Absolutely OP5. A much better phone (Camera, AMOLED, battery life, dash charge, oxygen OS, updates, Snapdragon 835...)

Wrong. OnePlus' AMOLED surely look better.
And Camera (on good light) is also better.
And no phone has as much developers as OnePlus 5

Camera: I'm not sure but i guess that the g6 is better, and the wide angle pictures are awesome, i prefer the wide angle rather than the setup on the op5. And the wide angle front camera is a nice feature too, i dont know about the quality of wide angle pictures.
Charging: Dash charge is awesome, as far as i know dash charge is better than quick charge (it doesnt heat).
Screen: The screen is better in the lg g6 (although i prefer 1080p displays), that huge screen and almost no bezzels are awesome, i love it. The screen on the g6 is HDR, i didnt read about it but you should check it out.
Battery: same 3300mah, but i guess that the lg g6 display will use more battery.
Support: Official support will be almost the same, but unofficial (community) it's way better on the op5.
I guess that's all. Sorry for my bad english!.

The OnePlus 5 camera is better on most situations. The G6 is better just for lowlight.
And OP5's AMOLED is better than G6's display.

Absolutely OP5. A much better phone (Camera, AMOLED, battery life, dash charge, oxygen OS, updates, Snapdragon 835...)
The jelly effect is unnoticeable.

Wrong. OnePlus' AMOLED surely look better.
And Camera (on good light) is also better.
And no phone has as much developers as OnePlus 5

"And OP5's AMOLED is better than G6's display." I doubt that

Go ahead, compare side by side. That's what I did.

OP5 amoled is much worse than G6 LCD. Just look it under sunlight.
G6 is better than OP5 on camera, screen and loudspeaker. In all other things, OP5 is better.

Have had both handsets, and stayed with the OP5. Software, hardware is way better on op5... Camera Software is better on the G6, but Camera harware is worse, yes it has ois, but I never missed that.... Only the screen even is better then on the 5, its no amoled, but 18/9 looks awesome an reloution is also better.... Stay witht he 5, there is no real alternative at the moment when it comes to nearly stock android based devices....

I went from a galaxy s8 to the oneplus 5 (I needed dual sims ). The s8 is similar to the g6 in some ways. Personally I don't think I'll ever buy another LG because they have been so unreliable for so long. Every lg I owned had a defect or hardware failure of some kind. Nexus 4, 5 lg g2, my friend's g3 I replaced the motherboard for him because of overheating. G4 and g5 both have a lot of issues and that was after I already gave up on them.
The s8 did have a nicer screen but I was a pain to watch YouTube videosv in bed without accidentally pressing the edges and fast forwarding through it. I miss the waterproofing and SD card slot but I can get over that. The oneplus is definitely much faster and has slightly better battery life.
I miss wireless charging because I want to keep this one a long time and don't want to wear out the USB port.
The jelly scrolling I would never have noticed if I hadn't read about it online. Once I remembered and actually looked for it I could just barely see it but I can't imagine it bothering me.
I really don't have any major complaints so far.
