Oops!!! Today I'm gonna to tell you a good new that I have to share with you all.
ZTE has announced that it is launching the Blade S6 Plus globally, exclusively on eBay. Featuring a 5.5-inch 720p display powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 octa-core chipset, clocked at 1.5gHz, and comes with a LTE radio. The ZTE Blade S6 Plus runs ZTE's customizable MiFavor 3.0 user interface on top of Android 5.0 Lollipop.
The phone is priced at $299.99, or £199.99 and €276.99 for the United Kingdom and Europe, respectively. But now, it is priced at $269.99, $30 off, only one week in The US, £182.99, £17 off, only for 10 days in the UK, €252.99, €24 off, only one week in the Europe.
You don't have to pay the full price if you're eager enough to snatch one up right away.
And I hope it can help those who'er looking forward to owning one.
Such a bummer I paid the same for blade s6 5" LTE and now there's a 5'5" grrrrr
Bought value for money. Very good fast phone with decent build quality.
If you as me is loving the design of the Mate 9 Porsche but not the price, there is good news. The Mate 9 Pro has been released today in Scandinavia at a event held in Copenhagen. The Mate 9 Pro is basically the Mate 9 Porsche without the Porsche branding, and at around half the price.
The Mate 9 Pro was released in China a few weeks ago, but it is great to see it released in Europe.
Avalible for preorder now, delivery starts on 20. of december.
Price 5.999 DKK (appx. 800 EUR) for 128 GB version. Preorders includes a pair of Huawei AM185 Active Noise Cancelling earphones.
Full specs: http://consumer.huawei.com/dk/support/products/technicalspecs/mate9pro-dk.htm
It's a nice phone but the screen size is to small for my tastes. Hopefully they will still release the same specs with a 5.9 inch form factor.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Yep, 5.9 a must have!

Please post sample photos when you receive it [emoji6]
I like a Mate series screen to be big ha ha
Quad HD would have been nice but full HD is good too in real life if you don`t use VR.
Any online shop taking preorders?

Currently it is only available for pre-order. It will be delivered from december 20. It can be pre-ordered from most of the mobile service providers and a few tech-shops like http://www.elgiganten.dk/product/mo...T9PGY/huawei-mate-9-pro-smartphone-128-gb-gra and http://www.wupti.com/produkter/mobil,-gps-og-foto/mobiltelefoner/huawei/huawei-mate-9-pro-gold. I don't think they ship internationally thu, and the mobile service providers definitely dont.
The phone will probably be available from more shops after it becomes available for delivery.
It doesn't support SD card slot though. Neither does the Porsche edition apparently. They claim it's due to support for 3G/4G on the second SIM but from what I understand the regular Mate 9 does support both. Just wanted to throw that out there.
I'm currently strongly considering picking it up but I'm deeply concerned about dev support considering the Kirin SoC, multiple SKUs with varying specs and potentially few devs picking up the device due to price and availability.
The pro variant including porsche design scored less in performance and graphics compared to the full fledged Mate 9.
So choose what you want in your Mate 9. Performance or Looks.

That's a given. HIgher resolution display and the same chip in a bigger device usually gives a higher thermal headroom resulting in better benchmark scores but the difference should be negligible.

You know , I sold my Mate 9 for the only purpose of buying the Pro variant with 6gb/128 configuration.
Well until someone confirms that we can get a pro with Google play installed officially.

Well, as this thread indicates, the Pro can be bought with Google Play installed
(However, it will be released on December 20th, so that's a long way to go if you intend to install the Scandinavian ROM on what I assume is a Chinese variant?)
In fact, If I buy the Mate 9, I can only buy the Pro unless I buy from another EU country. The regular Mate 9 has not been launched in Scandinavia which disappointed many and they said at the time that they had no intentions of bringing it here. Fast forward three weeks and the Pro was announced to launch and the Pro will be the only Mate 9 variant in the Scandinavian market. So I'm guessing that the Pro might only be on the market in China and Scandinavia which makes me question the development for the device :/
It saddens me a bit that the Pro will actually be a step back in some regards compared to the regular variant: no SD card slot and slightly decreased SoC performance (as you mention), fewer color variants (only two colors for this market: gold and grey) - and some would say the fingerprint scanner moving to the front is a downgrade as well. I also saw some disappointment in the AMOLED display not being a 6" (or larger) one; the complaint being they wanted an actual big phone but I don't mind too much personally. I have a 5.2" device now and it already slips out of some of my pockets due to the size, so a 6" behemoth wouldn't help in that department
They probably couldn't source a decent AMOLED display at that size although I'm curious as to how well calibrated the display is. Huawei and other Chinese manufacturers haven't been known for their attention to that kind of detail. Samsung, the Pixel and the OnePlus 3(T) have well calibrated AMOLED displays but the rest of the market seems to neglect that.
Call me guilty, I put my Pixel XL for sale and bought a Mate 9 (second time after the gold M9) with my favorite color Space Grey (no more silly black borders).

Congratz! I knew you would come back...
Well, I bit the bullet and pre-ordered the Huawei Mate 9 Pro in Space Grey. So I'll be getting a nice Christmas present.
I just hope development for this device will pick up because it will certainly prolong the life of the device; however it does seem from reviews that it's a great device.
I'm coming from an LG G2 which has been somewhat of an underground success with a fantastic developer community around it, so I doubt any non-Samsung/Nexus/Pixel/OnePlus device can live up to that but hopefully it will be enough
I have the Porsche Design and placed alongside my mate 9 the screen size difference is negligible due to the on screen navigation buttons on the mate 9.
With the unveiling of the Nokia 6 in ces I believe? As a China exclusive,now we have what maybe a global/USA varient however Nokia wants to sell it as. Watching the hands on video appears to be pure stock android 7 nougat with google play services. Nokia also confirmed of timely security updates. With the right consumer buyers and tinkers for the price this possibly maybe a "nexus" like device.
What I still miss in the videos is the NFC test. Since the phone is unibody aluminium alloy, I doubt it will have NFC, eventhough it appears in the specs. I would be surprised if they managed to camouflage the antenna so well.
Secondly there is no official support for the Galileo GNSS. Its 2017 and every SoC has Galileo support, why wont they just include it?
here it is 2018 now. coming up on 10 years when the htc g1 dream debuted as the worlds 1st smartphone with 192 MB RAM, 256 MB ROM. 2013 saw the S4 with 2GB/16Gb/13mp/2600mah. then in 2015 brilliance came shining through with usb-c; that was 3 years ago. now we do see a lot of phones daring to go with 4gb/64gb usb-c 4000mah dual rear 12mp cameras; but still we see a lot of phones that are supposed to be high end failing to brave the the modern world of usb-c. im not saying entry-level phones aren't a necessity. rather not drop names but gonna to to show examples. im talking about how surprising it is to see the honor 7x not having usb-c. that it took until the S8 for samsung to get a clue to have their flagship don all these really basic flagship requisites. im not a gamer, don't care for the hype of 4k on a 5 inch screen with a battery that powers it for less than a day. instead just really like technology and its advance not hesitation. here's to hoping 2108 is the year manufacturers brave the world of true flagship specs and even mid-range devices taking on the demand customers like me really do not want to see new phones brag of 2gb/16gb usb-b quad core 2000mah 13mp unless its for less than 150 bucks like the blu r1hd for those who don't need or want a high-end device.
Hi guys, Vivo is planning to launch Vivo nex on 19 July on price tag of Rs 48,990, so are you excited? How many would prefer to buy? Yes we can see some development now after Indian launch!!
Excited and planning to buy as getting it at good deal of 32.7k in amazon India after cash back and exchange of wife's aged lenovo k6 power phone with 12 months 0%emi......Used the phone for half hour.... big for my small hands.....Felt a bit heavy....Swipe to reach/one hand mode(compared to iphone style double tap) and fingerprint sensor are a hit and miss feature which are the 2 most important feature for me...
