Can you guys recommend which one is better? im looking for one that has a great camera and also has good software upgrading prospects.
Hi,
Is this subforum also covering the new HUAWEI GR5 2017, because it has the same specs as HONOR 6X?
Looks like an international rebrand to me.

Looks like it's only released in Sri Lanka for that name.

I think Bangladesh & Nepal too. Sri Lanka anyway doesn't get the Honor brand much the Honor 5X came as Huawei GR5 a with a Kirin processor instead of snapdragon 616.
Honor 6X = Huawei Mate 9 Lite.
I don't mind the brand, I just want this one fast (in the Netherlands).

Will it come as Mate 9 lite? Back in November I saw that it was rebranded as Mate 9 lite and huawei had a page for that phone on their website, but somehow that site isn't there anymore. I have a feeling they might go with the Honor branding

The specs are almost the same... Why have so many brands...

Huawei and Honor both have different strategy, even though honor is sub brand of Huawei. I have asked this same question to honor president in carnival and got a detailed response on this that cleared the doubts. There is good amount of difference as well in their pricing.
Huawei- higher cost, premium series phones, mostly in house Kirin processor, high end camera with their partnership with lieca
Honor- budget segment mostly (apart from Honor 8 and Magic)with mixup of Kirin and snapdragon processors, started shifting to high end and dual cameras in Honor 8, Magic..

Great explanation. Thanks. In China, there is even more sub brands of HUAWEI, so they categorize the market into more subs.

Is it Honor 6X only? If so, it will be in same section once custom roms are out. And it should support your phone also.

You can help the custom ROM process by adding information of your phone.

so they are both the same except for some tweaks or are there bigger differences like in software ?
and what would you recommend gr5 2017 or samsung a5 2017?

OK .... So now I'm thoroughly confused.
I ordered both the Mate 9 and the Mate 9 Pro (because of Amazon generous return policy). Initially I got the Mate 9 because of price.
The first disappointment is that the Mate 9 Pro apparently had only dual SIM sorry and NO micro SD ??? Is that correct? Why in the heck would they limit you like that?
More importantly and I can't get a clear answer ..... Do the Mate 9 and Mate 9 Pro have different cameras ??? Huawei customer support was thoroughly confusing!! Anyone have hands on comparison of the 2 devices. I could probably survive only 128gb of storage of the camera is truly different and better!
You are right. Pro dont have microsd slot, only dual-sim and 128gb memory (6gb ram). Camera's is same on both. Only differences betweed Mate 9 and Pro is memory and screen.

That's what it appeared on the specs BUT ..... the Huawei support person acted like cameras were different .. Also there is a Chinese (sounds like) YouTube video that compares Mate 9 to Mate 9 Pro and shows much worse images with the Mate 9

Does he/she shows pictures straight from mobile screen to video camera or?... I have used both and opened both phones and they definetely had same camera. I havent noticed any differences with picture quality. Of there really is differences then its caused by firmware, maybe pro has tweaked more?

I prefered same too. I like Mate 9 more, even when its not amoled and 2K like Pro has. This is still awesome IPS screen and 5.9" is so damn perfect side

I wanna upgrade from this device due to lack of VoLTE.
Which is the best device?
1)Mi A1
2)Moto G5 plus
3) Nokia 6
4) Lenovo P2
5)Lenovo Z2 plus
6)Redmi Note 4
If I missed a budget phone please write here. Budget is around 14-15k INR(₹). Need a good phone with nice battery, camera , performance..
UI is not an issue, I can live with custom ROMs
Camera- Mi A1,Moto g5s plus, moto g5 plus
Battery-P2,
Dedicated SD slot- Moto g5 plus.
[email protected] if Amoled.
Updates- Mi A1, Nokia 6, Moto( if you are lucky)
Performance- z2 plus
Build- Nokia 6
Design- personal choice.
Value package: Redmi note 4(4+64)@10999+ bank offer.
I wish you could wait for new launches....may be till Oct- Nov. mi A1, moto x4 A1, Redmi note 5, lenovo p3, Nokia 7.
If i had to replace my Nexus 5 now, i would probably get a moto g5 plus. I prefer phones about 5", so the Nokia 6 and the p2 are nothing i would consider.
Also(unlike the nokia 6 and the p2) the g5 plus has a snapdragon 625 which is manufactured in 14nm, which results in better power efficiency. The Snapdragon 820 in the Lenovo Z2 is also made in 14nm process.
I would also consider the Xiaomi mi5. It's very light and the ceramic version looks extremely nice. You can find it for the price of a g5 plus in europe, i am not sure about india...

I replaced my Nexus 5 with an used Pixel XL 128G several days ago, for 2300 CNY, about 350 USD, and the phone is very new though.
BTW, how about Moto X Style? I bought two for both my parents, and I think its a very good phone, despite the official ROM is on 7.0, still you can use a third-party ROM instead.

Hi guys! I dont know where to ask, i have seen about 25 ish videoes on youtube, read some sites.. read some more sites... and... read...... you get the point
I am new to android phones, i went from Siemens, to Sony Ericsson to Iphone as my smartphone, i have had Iphone sience the first iphone. I am very happy with my iphone. BUT.. i wanna try something new.
I have decided between One Plus 9Pro and the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra.. i dont know why Samsung is there, but might have something to do with it beeing abit main stream. I have never heard about OnePlus.. and certantly not Xiaomi ( i dont know how to say that name irl).
I am not a Photographer or Videomaker, but i want to use the Camera alot of my phone.
Out of these two, what would you guys reccomend and why. Answers like "Pick the one you like" , "S21 ultra is the best" or " Xiaomi " does not work for me. As i have never seen the two brands, i can only know about them from you guys and the rest of the internett.
As far as i have concluded: Both have amazing screen, Both have good cameras, Both as fast and Xiaomi have better battery, but does not look as good as the OnePlus. OnePlus is also cheaper
Would i as an Amature Photographer, Videomaker and Android user see and feel the difference?
Only one is for sale in my country atm, but i can wait for the Xiaomi
