Huawei is just like Apple in my mind. An overly expensive premium phone with bells and whistles I don't need. I had a ZTE for many years that is finally bricking. After this I will probably get some $100 phone from one of those millions of unknown Shenzhen OEMs, UMIDIGI or something.
- esquire_900 7y agoDepends which one you buy I guess? I bought an Huawei Y7 2019 a year or so ago which is surprisingly good, around 160 euro's.
- ChrisSD 7y agoHuawei have long done good phones in the roughly £100 to £200 range. They tend to be arguably the best hardware for their price. But as mentioned, the software isn't perfect so you'll either need to put up with some annoyances or be willing to hack around it.
- jandrese 7y agoHow is the Cyanogen/LineageOS coverage on Huawei? It seems like if you want updates after a couple of years you'd best make sure your phone isn't locked out from aftermarket ROMs.
- yorwba 7y agoLineageOS supports 5 different Huawei devices: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/#huawei https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/#huawei The last time I bought a phone, I consulted that list first and compared all recent entries without fixating on a specific manufacturer. I ended up with a Xiaomi Mi A1 that's been holding up well so far and already went through one major Android update without problem.
