Huawei P9 now available in dark red or blue. - Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion

http://m.gsmarena.com/huawei_p9_now_available_in_dark_red_or_blue_-news-20288.php

Definitely would've picked the red one if it had been available earlier...

Are these sandblasted metal (like the grey and silver) or brushed metal (like the gold)? I prefer sandblasted metal as it's less blingy and less prone to smudges and fingerprints.

Saw they released a rose gold recently. 6 colours now to choose from.

Have these been released yet? Wife needs a new phone and likes the red one but I can't find it for sale anywhere!

Ebay Hardcore Case

I was checking out the ballistic and Siedo case discussion on this section and a gentleman presented this case. Neither him or I have this case but just look at it. If you really need the highest level of protection then this case seems to be it!
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=360549613773&index=8&nav=SEARCH&nid=66660487352
It even offers cover for the 3.5 mm headphone jack, kickstand, and a holster!
I picked the red link since I like the color red, but they also offer it in black, purple, red (duh), white and blue.
Let me know what you guys think

Black and blue
Black and pink
That certainly is hard core, but it would occlude the Nexus 4 too effectively. -_-''
Nice case!
Unfortunately they do not sent to Germany

One of the sellers is German.
I ordered a black + blue one a few days ago so I should recieve it in a few days. I also spotted a white + pink one too. I was impressed by the cheap Exact armor case I got from amazon, so I have high expectations on this one.
what do u do for a living, remove land mines?
I too have the 4 dollar exact Armor case from amazon and it's very well built I dropped my phone this morning on the way to the bathroom (about a e feet fall into my foot) and it survived pretty well! I wonder if this could be the case that I would be using to go to the gym with though. I would have to find a way to attach it to my bicycle. Nothing duct tape can't resolve!

Get a RAM XGrip mount for your bike and it will fit any phone in any case (except maybe a Note 2).
Another heavy-duty case here.
I'm going to order one of these to the UK

Gunmetal gray. Extremely satisfied. Looks sleek, build quality is excellent, way better than my M7. I am really, really, really impressed with HTC. I am in love with the camera features, I honestly might stick with sense based roms for this iteration because the features are cool and useful, unlike samsung.
I want gold. I think its worth the restocking fee. I got the darker gray

Do you recommend the dot case? Almost got it at the Verizon store but wanted to spend at least a little bit of time w/ the phone naked. I wasn't a fan of the stock keyboard so I got SwiftKey and it suits me well enough. Typically I'd go with Google keyboard but the vibration strength on click is way too strong.

Gunmetal and I'm extremely satisfied. Out of the dozens of phones I've ever owned, the M8 has the BEST build quality out of every single one of them! It looks and feels so classy compared to every other android device available.

Just finished installing SwiftKey as well. As for the case I find it too stiff. But I've been breaking it in and it's not as bad as when I first bought it. However it doesn't fold flat against the bank of the phone which annoys the hell out of me right now. But it has saved my battery I assume since I answer all my calls with it on.

Same here, boss actually got a little mad. Gunmetal and the incipio dualpro thin black and grey case. They go perfectly and great protection with no added bulk or weight. Was thinking to get the dot case but doubt will be any good from drop protection. Never had a flip style case so not sure how I'd like it.
Gunmetal. Sick as hell. My vzw rep actually brought me all 3 colors and let me keep them for a day to decide, but really the grey is by far the best aesthetically. I'll say though that all 3 are on par with or better than iPhone in terms of build quality. Highly satisfied.

Different color backs

I wonder if they will have different colored back plates. Preferably made out of the same premium material and not just some garbage rubber. That would be cool.
Sent from my LG-H901 using XDA Free mobile app
Took the words directly from me lol .would love this as well..maybe like burnt orange, wine red, lime or like motomaker with custom stripes or patterns...or even maybe even a limited edition durable leather back, too bad T-mobile and Verizon have like select colors models though .
Ditto, was just about to post this same exact question, lucky XDA does a similar post search
I'd like to get a couple of the other colors to alternate. Preferably OEM, even if it's go the other carrier logos.
EDIT: I'd take even slick metallic backs like the LG G4, at least vinyl skins would stick flat on that one. Like the Moto Nexus 6 has those "natural" skins made of leather, cork, or football leather.

All great suggestions..... In addition to those suggestions I would like to add a duraskin cammo in different shades and patterns. With the rugged good looks and build of the LG V10 I think it would be a welcome addition.

Ordered the eBay one for faster delivery. Thanks for the info!
Have you guys seen the stickers for Qi charging floating around on ebay? I got one for my lg g3 and it worked perfectly with the stock back. I just peeled off the old one and popped on the new one an bam. I only ask because im not sure exactly when they are called or what i would search for on ebay.

I hope so, that would be the easiest way to customize, because you don't really need a case, just need screen protector and interchangeable backs
I'm desparately trying to find a wood finished/style back, or at least a case. No dice so far. I did come across this. http://www.aliexpress.com/store/pro...astic-Case-For-V10-LG/904349_32504973777.html
Look just as cheap as the price, but at least they offer more options. They don't look like true back covers though

Nice digging. I've seen these before on Amazon, but more on Ebay.
Skinomi Tech skins are another alternative, bugt they're just skins. I might go this route and add a clear case.

Mate 8 Real Photos in Mocha Brown

I just got my Mate 8 delivered a few days ago after really liking the Mocha Brown color. The problem is the photos online look like a much deeper brownish mocha color than the actual phone is. I was a little disappointed but the phone is still very nice. Here are some pics of the phone in Mocha Brown. Notice in the light it almost looks like a dull gold and in low light it looks slightly more brown but nowhere near in the online photos. The last photo is the online photo of the color I thought it would be.

Mocha Gold isn't an official Huawei color definition...
They only are:
http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/worldwide/mate8/specifications.htm
for NXT-L29:
- Moonlight Silver
- Space Gray
- Champagne Gold
- Mocha Brown
for NXT-L09:
- Moonlight Silver
- Space Gray
IMHO your Mate 8 is probably the Champagne Gold version.
I have the brown to it says on box bronze .deffo not the gold it is the brown putalot paler

I have the NXT-AL10 model in the Mocha Brown (some sites call it Mocha Gold) It's definitely not nearly as brown as in the photos.
http://www.gizok.com/huawei-mate-8-4g-lte-4gb-64gb.html
yep i have made the same experience. this definitely is the mocha brown color (and indeed some shops and sites refer to it as mocha gold) and it doesnt look as brown in real life as in the press pics. it still is way more interesting than the other color options if asked id have to say that it rather resembles a bronze color in real life

Look at the label on the box, there should be printed the Mate 8 color (on mine there is).

Yep, says Mocha Gold on it. In the photos from Huawei it looks much more brownish orange than in real life. Yeah it's almost a bronze color.
Well, then also Mocha Gold is an official Mate 8 color from Huawei.
Now I wonder if Mocha Brown color actually exists and if somebody has found that color printed on the label...

They are pretty much the same lightness except the Mocha has a "hint" of brown and by "hint" I mean very subtle.

I'm Gold Mocha, Mocha Brown Mocha Gold is the same. Dark golden color, like Nescafe Gold
The volume and power keys are gold, as well as the narrow margin around the phone
Huawei is master of false advertisement. First the black frame around the screen that they make a lot smaller on official images, and then the Moca Brown that hardly looks brown at all in real life.
well, it actually depends on the lighting...if u really want to, u can make the mocha brown look like in the press release pics

Best Color for Huawei Mate 9

Hi,
I am confused about the colours available in Mate 9. I went to the shop and liked Mocha Brown and Space Grey, but I am confused between them. Which one did you get ?
Any real world pictures would be nice too...
Thanks.
I bought the Space Gray US model because the screen is black which I like. The back I don't care what color it is because I always use a case. Mate 9 Space Gray is on the left, Mi Max in gold is on the right. I had the Mate 8 in Mocha Brown and it was almost a gold color, not very brown.

Likewise, I also want my device front to be black and as per the backside, if it is beautiful, why not ?
Currently I am using a Sony Xperia Z3 in Copper and it is so beautiful, I keep it naked. Even if gets somewhat scratched.
Hence, I am confused as to which color to go for... But hey, thanks for your valuable input.
I have mocha brown. It's the only colour Huawei distribute in New Zealand. Imo they all look pretty good though, it's really just a matter of personal preference.
Sent from my MHA-L29 using Tapatalk
The models with the dark front are best. You can see the screen black border with white color.
I settled for Space Grey in the end. The rear side is grey and the front is black. It may be conservative, but looks good on this phone.
I got the Champagne Gold and its stunning. It really looks so classy. And with the right case on it.....WOW!!
