3UK and EE

Thanks Simona,
Just to confirm, its TL10 not 9. Also, does LTE CAT6 work?
I will be looking to buy a prepaid Sim for 1 week usage, any recommendations?

Dont worry i know i have 9
yeah all cat 6 .. you won't even use it bcos your OP doesn't support it (LTE-A)
I have 3UK payg and every month top up 15 quid and buy package addon 15 which has unlimited internet , 300 min and 3 grand sms

Thanks,
You said you have 9 and I have 10, I would assume it should work.
The reason I am asking because I tried it U.S and even the the 3.5g/H didn't work, I don't want to end up with nonfunctional Sim.

Yup, my previous post had a speed test result but I only got the app supporting up to 50mb, I am on PAYG plan so you can check if there's another app that can do CAT6 speed(s).
Attached is my network status, when I enabled CAT6 I was able to surf, disabled it later since I am on 2GB for 7 days visit.

Brilliant. Where did u get ur mate 7 from and how much if u.don't mind me asking. I had to get a 32gb version as my previous device was a note 4 and I install many games and apps. I never purchased a huawei device before so I hope it performs and I get to like the UI.

I got it for around 330 GBP/493 USD few months back around the beginning of this year. I purchased from Oman in Middle East, 32GB gold. For me its good enough. My previous phones were Nexus S, Nexus 4, LG G2. I think its good value for money and got some good tools to help you keep your phone healthy.

What version of the flex 2 should I buy????

I want to buy this phone but I'm not sure which version is better
I know that the h959 has 3gb of ram and all the other got 2, but i see somewhere that it does get updates very late.
So what is better?

2gb is enough, I have the 3gb version h950... But buy the one that have the bands you use

If you're in the US you need the H950...it has all the primary T-Mobile+AT&T bands. If you're in some other place, probably another variant.
Also H950 has 32GB storage over 16GB on one of the international/Korean ones. Remember microSD cards are slower than internal storage...

Yeah but the Korean version has 3 gb of ram. I think that it's more important than storage, but i don't want to wait longer for updates.

US/ATT also has 3GB/32GB. It can flash the PR update, which is handled by LG for Claro - also lacks bloat. At least with H950 B12 can be enabled, some other ones are hidden too.

I don't know anything about the bands/frequencies used in Israel, but you probably won't need the US (ATT) variant. Just Google what your carrier uses first.

I already chacked that,
I'm just wandering if the h959 is really better because of the 3gb ram, or I just go for the h955

I would get the 3gb version. I have the 2gb version and with heavy multitasking I sometimes wish i had gotten the 3gb version. But it really depends on your usage. If you are not a heavy multitasker you'd be OK with 2gb of ram.

What is the best (most powerful) variant of the Stylo?

I thought it might be Cricket, but I know T mobile has one too.

All of the Stylos have a Snapdragon 410 MSM8916 1200MHZ CPU. The only difference I know of between models is the camera, which makes the T-Mobile variant the most powerful, featuring 13MP instead of the 8MP camera.

The T-Mobile/Metro PCS version also has 2GB RAM instead of 1GB, and 16GB internal storage instead of 8GB, in addition to the 13MP camera. However, we're all still waiting for the Marshmallow update, whereas Sprint/Boost/Virgin already have it. If you want more memory, both RAM and internal storage, the T-Mo/Metro version is the way to go.
Between Sprint/Virgin/Boost is the Cricket model at 1.5GB RAM and 8GB internal storage, and the 8MP camera. However, it can only support up to a 32GB microSD where the T-Mo/Metro version can house at least a 64GB (that's what I have in mine, I've read some people actually have a 128GB and it works)

Cricket supports 64Gb sd cards. I have one in mine.

Don't forget that the Sprint/Boost/Virgin models support FM radio. And I THINK T-Mobile/Metro have NFC but don't quote me on that.

I know at minimum the T-Mo version has NFC because that's the one I have.
Cricket supports 64Gb sd cards. I have one in mine.

Good to know. I figured it would though since I don't have one I only had to go off what I could find online

Don't forget the Canadian version LG-H636 it's also got 13mp camera, 16Gb user space and 2Gb ram.
It doesn't matter what card is or isn't supported, you get a 1Gb ram model and you'll be regretting it eventually after only a small handful of downloaded and installed app's and suffering the consequences of low ram and running out of space, no amount of a sdcard can save you then from that problem.

Has Marshmallow for T-Mo arrived?!
I have a T-Mo model, and when I just now checked for update manually, it reported that there would be an update tonight between 23:00 and 04:00! The only detail provided was that the size was 147.9 Mb. Is this Marshmallow?!

I can confirm the T-Mo variant has 2Gb RAM and 16 Gb storage. I do not know about upper size limit supported for SD card.

Too small to be MM last I recall seeing and reading about that it was only a update to fix wifi-calling.

You are correct, not Marshmallow.
Lollipop 5.1.1 update. Added Google Pay, and may well have included a WFC fix. I've only had this phone a week, but it did seem to drop most calls, on cell and wi-fi. I've only had one call today, but it didn't drop.
I had high hopes for Marshmallow. T-Mo tech support said Marshmallow update wouldn't happen until Sept when I asked.
Oh, well.

So does metro, I'm using a 64gb as well.

Where to buy international 4gb ram 64gb?

so looking online I seem to only find the Chinese version and the L29 I think it is, which is limited to 3 gb only. where can I purchase the other L version that has 4 gb ram and 64gb internal? Selling my note 5 to get this bad boy. can't wait!!
thanks

afaik there are no 4gb international versions... also, there arent any hardware differences between the AL10 and L29 phones aside from the differing support for a few LTE bands. and by a few were talking about like 1-3 here, so nothing to write home about....the rest of the hardware is absolutely identical, u can even crossflash the firmwares, sooo....why not just get the AL10 and call it a day?

hm unclear which version the second link offers, but the first looks like the L29, not sure though since they mixed up LTE and UMTS bands.
in any case, i did say there was a very slight difference in supported LTE bands, but thats it. everything else is 100% the same, so nothing to make a fuss about if u ask me

I just want the versions that comes pre installed with Google play. I don't want to have to root and flash the international version. it looks like there is a 4gb ram and 64gb international version. now I just need to figure out if it has AT&T bands.
thabks guys

except one is a Chinese version no Google play and the others are not.

i was talking about the hardware
sure, not everyone likes to play around with software, i understand that. but seeing as roms are interchangeable between the chinese and international model, there is really no fixed hardware-based difference between the two thats what i meant

NXT-L29 with 64gb/4gb ram hasn't been released yet, only 32 in silver and grey is available in few countries. 64/4 in gold and mocha (NXT-L29) will be released next month in EU

interesting info! where did u get that from?

My Chinese handset 64gb version came with Google play installed. You can download it from the huawei store that comes installed as well....

Does anyone know where you can even get the 3/32gb international version (NXT-L29)? For the last few days vmall has just kept saying it will be available in 2 days?

whats your country of residence? id suggest to just check local electronic stores, they should have the mate 8 in stock by now or the usual places like amazon, ebay, etc.

I'm in Ireland so it will probably never be in shops here. I will need to buy online. Do you have the international version, if so where did you get it?

why is it never going to be in shops there? in any case, id suggest checking out UK sites, they should have the mate 8 in stock
i got the AL10 chinese version through aliexpress

Possible to get Global version for use on US Carriers?

hi i'm still running an M8 but the U11 looks like finally the phone that will trigger me to upgrade. I'm confused about how the US versions will be getting 4GB RAM 64GB storage, while the international versions will get 6GB RAM 128GB storage.
Anyone know if it's possible to get the international version to work on US Carrier? I'm on AT&T.
Thanks
excited to see how the edge sensitivity stuff works out

Wrong information mate. All countries will get the same 4GB RAM/64GB internal configuration. Only difference are Taiwan and China were HTC will ship an 6GB RAM/128GB internal version as well. If your not running dual SIM the 64GB variant would suffice I think. But if you really want the larger storage you'd have to import it. Don't know if all US bands are present on this asian versions and if it'll run on AT&T though.

Gotcha. Well thanks for the info. I won't need dual SIM and use an SD card so I was really just interested in getting 25% more RAM if it wasn't hard to get an international version.

Not necessary to have those extra juice. Didn't make a lot in terms of performance on such a phone. Especially as long as it is driven by such an SoC and very well done software optimization.

should be fine with sd835 and 4 gb

Watch out for the dual sim variants. They don't have all the US bands.

I was kinda bummed about this too, but at least we have an SD card slot and HTC doesn't bloat the hell out of their phones with crap like "Touchwiz" so I think it wouldn't make much difference.

Wait, but there's five MIDs, two of which are dual-SIM. So how can "all countries be getting the same 4/64 config"?

Yeah I know bit MID isn't directly tied to storage options. And as far as I know EMEA and US and others are getting 4GB/64GB, while Aisa is the only region getting 6GB/128GB.

Right, I just wanted to make sure that by "the same 4/64 config" you didn't mean all 4/64 devices have the same MID )
Also, @hamdir reported ME is getting 6/128.
