The specs look really promising. The price is acceptable. But I prefer the design of the P8max.

As stated by m00h above, whilst the specs look impressive, I think the P8 max is definitely good enough to last at least a year possibly more before we the diehard users will start to ask for QHD or 2K in our Phablets .
I really hope that Huawei or possibly Sony (lost all faith) or even Samsung will release a device that is at least as good as P8max but with the following issues addressed. (Still wondering if manufacturers actually read our posts/feedback:
-Dedicated Dual Sim + Dedicated Separate MicroSD Card Slot (it has been done by some cheap Chinese brand only recently why can't big brands perfect this). Very serious annoyance.
-2K Display on a 6.99 screen size which I think if the bezels are designed properly will be the absolute ideal Phablet size.)
-Physical Home Button + Dedicated Photo Camera Button
-IR Blaster and NFC
-DUAL Stereo Speakers (position on the top and bottom right sections to prevent accidental blockage of the chambers when in horizontal use)
-Curved screen like Samsung Galaxy Edge Plus- very nice looking on large screens,
-Stylus/Digitiser Pen (a must for all phablets)
-Touch Type Keyboard Cover similar to Surface Pro
-Advanced Tethering options to bypass data package restrictions to use device internet freely without third party apps or messy configurations,
-Huawei needs to remove the Firmware Customer Number lock so that an end user can flash the firmware of whichever country/region they want a long as the overall model name is matching i.e DAV-701L or DAV-703L. In a way similar to how Samsung deals with the matter as they allow custom firmware flashing of any country/operator/region the user wants or needs.
-FINALLY- Dedicated MHL Cable setup for wiredand wireless video viewing via the HDMI or USB Type C on TVs etc.....
Well it has a snapdragon processor, so there is more chance for custom roms. And i think Marshmallow wil never come for DAV-701. Support is very bad.

Totally agree. Huawei is officially the #3 Mobile Manufacturer in the world in volumes but their support is ABSOLUTELY NON-EXISTENT LET ALONE VERY BAD. It needs to sort this mess out. As for the Custom ROMs, thats a completely different issue and I think the developer community could do more but I am writing as a end user with no development experience. I think Huawei hardware does deserve the same attention as the Samsung, LG, Sony and HTC developers.
I am going to buy Zen 3 Ultra replace my P8 Max
Is the Zenfone 3 Ultra out yet? I'm buying it as soon as it comes out. I had to sell my P8 Max because I couldn't get LTE in Texas. I'm back on my OnePlus One until this phone comes out.

Since I got my Huawei P8 Max (DAV-701L), I have been using it with great joy and the design is 100% better than the ZenFone 3 Ultra in my opinion. However, I have been patiently waiting for Huawei to update it to Android 6.01 and for the developer community to pay attention to the existence of this very well built handset with their quality ROMs such as the Resurrection Rom but I am getting really impatient with the situation so the fact that there is now a credible competitor WITH quality developer support makes me think that I should consider getting the ZenFone 3 Ultra-preferably 128GB version when it is released which may appear to be middle of July or August (lets see). Coming from Samsung and Sony devices with plenty of developer support, I think next time I and every enthusiast user should always read XDA to check for developer support prior to spending our hard earned cash on new phones. I also genuinely hope that someone from the leading brands is reading my previous post around what I want in a perfect Phablet (6.99"inches is the Ultimate Phablet Size for me-anything less is a compromise)

Specs looks good, and the front is finaly black Maybe this will replace my P8 max.
Those two phablets are pretty similar. The Zenfone 3 Ultra would be a nice upgrade.

Too bad it doesn't have the LTE bands for the US. Unless they release a US version we are out of luck. Here are the bands it supports:
2G bands GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - SIM 1 & SIM 2
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 / 800
4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 18(800), 19(800), 20(800), 26(850), 28(700), 38(2600), 40(2300), 41(2500)
Tmobile uses bands 2,4 and 12 for LTE.
AT&T uses bands 2,4,5 and 17 for LTE.
The Phab 2 Plus will be released and will support LTE in the US. It will have a 6.4" screen.

Ajsmsg78 you're right, that sucks. I guess the Phab 2 Plus is the only great hope I have to get a 6"+ phablet to work on LTE in the US.
I've been reading rumors of a P9 Max and according to XDA, LeEco may be sending a phone this way also...
If the Acer Predator 6 comes out before then, I'll be all over that one. I can sacrifice the screen for a while just to see what 10-cores feels like in my hand.

next month i order the Xiaomi Mi max
My experience with huawei is now over. More then three huawei phones and always no good roms and cm or aosp is so far for my p8 max.
At this time my daily driver is my old HTC one max, it works always with no trouble, but i want a bigger phone. My Huawei p8 max i will
sell now and then the xiaomi will come.
Asus is not an option, the quality is the same like the asus notebooks, more then bad.
The Mi Max has the biggest akku of all phones (HTC One max, Huawei P8 Max, Asus Zenphone 3 Ultra) and i see here in xda has now

I would order a Mi Max as well but it doesn't support LTE in the US either. Le Eco says they are releasing phones with US LTE support this summer which is a good thing.

Greddy is was also looking at the mi max, but just like he said, no LTE suppprt in the US. As of today, I dont have a "I must have it" phone...I do see a Vivo xplay5 leading the antutu benchmarks so maybe that brand will release a phablet with US LTE support also.
I still say...to date...I've never had a phone with such good battery life as the P8 Max. Hands down, best battery management device I've ever had!!

The Mi Max is a nice phone, but a skip for me now because it has no 4G 800 mhz band 20 like all other Mi Phones and i don't like the white front color. I buy one if they make a black EU version
Someone here tried the Letv Max x900? I read that you can unlock the 4G 800 mhz band 20 with a code. The new Letv Max x910 is also comming.

I and many of you are still waiting for the Android 6.0 for our precious P8Max DAV-701L but if the rumours here are true then I am off to ASUS ZenFone 3 Ultra in no time......(Please Pay attention to the second paragraph in particular);
http://christiantimes.com/article/asus-zenfone-3-release-date-news-device-coming-soon-with-snapdragon-821-powered-deluxe-version/57648.htm
BECAUSE: I hate the fact that P8Max DAV-701L does not have any developer support (when I go into the ASUS forums on XDA, its like heaven-LoL), also Huawei support is really ****** call it whatever you like. I only wish somone could port Resurrection Remix ROM to P8 Max, thats all I am asking for to make my P8Max DAV-701L last for a long long time. They are officially the #3 phone maker in the world but I am not sure if they deserve it. Lets hope they read this angry statement and actually do the right thing for the end user.

Relax, the lack of dev support isn't much Huawei related. P8max isn't a typical device, not many people want to wear a brick in their pockets, so the phone that large will probably never gain enough popularity and have a high attachment rate. The things with the Asus Zenfone won't be that different, a phone with such a small userbase will probably never get enough attention for a proper dev support.

I am with WhySoSeriousJoker on the MiMax.
Too bad, that phone doesnt support band 20 LTE. I also dislike the white front. Just awful. In spite of these drawbacks i couldnt resist and ordered the 652/3GB version from china. Good to hear, that there is a CM13 available for this model.
I still love my P8Max. It is a pitty the DAV 701 is lacking support from Huawei but it is still running smooth and battery life is extraordinary. Will keep both phones

Hi
I'm looking at buying a cc9 pro from giztop and delivery too new Zealand as its slightly cheaper than the price they sell the mi 10 note global.
Its there any difference from these two phones if I just go ahead and flash the global rom into the cc9 pro. My main concern is Google pay.
The prices are
CC9 Pro 6/128 $399
Mi Note 10 6/128 $439
Thanks
If you flash a Global ROM on a Chinese version you must leave the boot loader unlocked to avoid bricking the phone. Google Pay NFC and some banking apps however will not work with an unlocked bootloader. Previously rooting the phone and using Magisk to hide the unlock status worked but Google seems to be tightening that loophole.
I see thank you. I might be safer not to get it then. Having a phone without Google pay would be terrible.
If anyone stumbles upon this post the other difference is the network bands.
Mi note 10
3G. 800 / 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100
4G. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 18, 19, 20, 26, 28, 38, 40
CC9 Pro
3G. 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G. 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 34, 38, 39, 40, 41
As far as I know:
CC9/CC9 Pro is for the Chinese market - Mi Note 10/Mi Note 10 Pro is for the international market.
Mi Note 10 only comes with max storage 128GB and 6GB RAM
CC9 Pro(also known as MI Note 10 Pro) comes with 256GB storage and 8GB RAM
There is also a slight difference in the main camera (back):
CC9 Pro/MI Note 10 Pro with 8P lens.
MI Note 10 with 7P lens.
cc9 (not pro) is 48MP camera.
I bought the cc9 pro global version (unlocked loader) 8gb ram and 128gb from tradinshenzhen. I definetly can recommend you the phone. Using it in germany with the new tucana miui global 11.1.1.0 google pay still works fine....
hope I could help you with that a bit
