Huawei Mate 20 Lite SNE-LX3 64GB (Factory Unlocked) 6.3 FHD (International Version) (Sapphire Blue)

[Cons] 1. Disable wi-fi calling to avoid not receiving calls and text. Follow page 2 of https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/help/issues-receiving-calls-text-t3869291/ to download QuickShortcutMaker app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut&hl=en_US to find wi-fi calling activity and disable it. 2. With the latest OS update, I found that wifi hotspot causes 06 Mbps slow download. upload is about 10Mbps. There is some kind of bug in the hotspot feature. [Pros] 1. I thought I had to buy Huawei Mate 20 to really find a competitive phone compared to the most expensive 2018 iPhone. I already have a Ticwatch c2 with Google pay so I was reluctant to spend $600 for the Mate 20 which has NFC. This LITE version does not have NFC for Google pay. But the price offered here is excellent. A review says 1080p at 60fps makes soft video but Id barely change video settings and dont need to use any video over 1080p. The camera isnt as good as Mate 20 in low light but thats something I can tolerate. 5 stars to the price. 2. the 12 nm Kirin 710 processor isnt as bad as I thought. Geekbench 4 score of 1600 is comparable to Snapdragon 660s near 1640. I dont feel slowness Opening apps except I heard games maybe slow. iPhones A12 processors are known to have high geekbench score and optimized for gaming. If you check company emails, social media, G suite, online banking, make calls, do video conferencing, you wouldnt feel a difference. 3. Face unlock and printer unlock are seamless. Face unlock may have difficulties in complete darkness. I like the feature to wake the phone when I pick it for better face unlock experience. Headphone jack is great for not needing an extra adapter to plug the headsets. I dont use Bluetooth headsets so having a headphone jack is important to me.

This phone is the best iv ever had. Iv had iPhone,Samsung, and LG but this thing has so mony amazing features I could spend all day writing about it. I love this phone it makes everyone around me so jellouse with my phone that never dies and looks better than theres 100 out of 10 would recommend to anyone who would listen

Wow, this fone rocks! Huawei the best! Forget the rest! Update: Fone is fast and battery life is excellent, especially when you delete Google account and use Firefox focus or other search engines. Android yes! Google no! Btw, one can sign in to Google account to download apps then sign back out and remove Google account from fone! Also, websites can be bookmarked and put on home screen with Firefox focus and avoid alot of ads and battery drain. With Huawei all data usage and security options can be monitored and controlled.

Great phone, super fast great duel screen, camera options and camera are great and so many options in the settings to personalize your phone. No wonder iPhone and Samsung are coming out with all the same stuff that these phones have. But nearly half or even a 3rd of the price. Love this phone

This is actually a pretty cool phone. I had a LG G5 which is a pretty awesome device to this one. The camera functions are not the greatest but it still takes great photos and videos. It processes app very fast and its generally fast. It does come with some bloat ware but that may turn out to work in favor of it. I was very skeptical and watched a lot of videos before landing on this so if your in the market for a budget smart phone that has solid specs then this may be the device for you.

I upgraded from the Honor 6x to this Mate 20 Lite and it looks awesome and it moves really good. Pretty happy with the purchase, the only thing that could be better its the battery life.

This is my second Huawei phone. I got this one on amazons next day shipping, slapped in my sim card, and I was good to go. First of all, the battery life is awesome. All day on a charge easily. It sips power like my Corolla sips gas. The screen is amazing. Everything works great. There is a feature where you can swipe left on the home screen and it will bring up articles Google thinks I want to see. That will crash on occasion, but it just reverts to the home screen. People cannot believe how cheaply I got this thing. If I had 700 to spend I would have gotten the One Plus 7. But I got this for 230.00 and I am very happy.

You wont get better at this price range. I moved from a Mate 9 Pro to this and I have zero complaints.

This is my personal opinion on the Huawei Mate 20 Lite SNE-LX3 64GB gold unlocked cell phone. In a world and times of normally ridiculously expensive phones: this is one that makes sense. Beautifully built and quality at a reasonable price, and it also does everything the flagship phones do just as well. My cellphone network is Cricket, and Im having absolutely no issues using it.

I needed to upgrade from my 16GB iPhone 6s for space and just couldnt rationalize the cost of even upgrading to a used iPhone 8. I was nervous to switch to Android, so I certainly didnt want a cheap phone to be the cause of my frustration, but the whole point of switching was to save money. This phones specs blew the same-price competitors away and was within my price range. So far Im very happy with it (1 month). Speedy, good looking, responsive... really no complaints as far as not doing what I need versus my iPhone. I connect to my car via an external bluetooth, attaching my phone to a mounted magnet for use (I have an older vehicle that doesnt have built-in bluetooth and screen). I only stream music (never use the cars radio/cd player) and I use maps frequently... everything has worked flawlessly. Phone calls have been clear using the phones headset, speaker and bluetooth. Quality check with friends: everyone says I sound just as clear as I did on my iPhone in all scenarios. Ive had no dropped calls and 4G works fine on AT&T. Signal isnt as great in my house (1-2 bars), but my calls have still been perfect. Battery lasts twice as long as my iPhone (and I replaced the battery on it a few months ago, getting the same battery life as I did when new). I can easily get a full day, play white noise overnight, and get through most of a second day. Charging is super fast. I think my biggest concern was the camera, and there are definitely pros and cons. Huawei gets grainy quicker in low light situations vs iPhone, BUT it also does a better job making low light pics look brighter. Pics that simply wouldnt turn out on the iPhone will turn out on Huawei, although grainy. In better light, pics are very similar. Huawei also has a lot of cool picture options that the iPhone didnt have, so overall Im happy with it. I think I actually like the video quality better on Huawei, especially screen resolution. I get a much wider shot. Videos are very sharp with bright colors and clear sound. Regarding Android: Huawei includes a number of apps of their own that cant be deleted, but I think its pretty minimal as far as bloatware goes. I got Nova Launcher from the Play Store, so my home screen is totally customized... which has gotten me hooked on Android now! For anyone else switching from iPhone, this is a must! You can choose custom icons for your apps, double up apps (I have my camera app, but then I just slide up on the app to open my photo viewer instead of having that app on the screen; same with FB and Messenger - tap or slide one icon, the two communication apps my kids teachers use, etc). This seriously reduces clutter! The widgets are super awesome too. I have my music streaming set up as a widget and can control most of it through the home screen now. I also have weather and time (larger print is much easier to use than the little clock on the top, and I can tap on the time to open the timer and the weather to open my weather app). My messaging app is also set up as a widget so I can see my most recent texts at a glance. You can also create rapid dial widgets, so I have 2 groups with custom icons for most common friends and family, so I rarely have to use my dialers contact list or navigate to favorites now. The downside to Android, though, is that all the stuff that comes standard on Apple isnt standard... so many dialer, voicemail, messaging, and keyboard apps, and the crappy ones are useless and full of ads. Its a total time-suck finding what works! To possibly save you some time: I use the Huawei dialer and Visual Voicemail (customize to open when I swipe up on the dialer app). I use Pulse for messaging - it works flawlessly and syncs on multiple devices (I loved using iMessage on my Mac and had no issues migrating to Pulse), plus it is super reasonably priced unlike others that want $80/year subscriptions... might as well get an iPhone at that rate! I liked Digital Clock Xperia as my time, date and weather widget. SwiftKey Keyboard is my favorite, although I dont think its quite as intuitive as Apple, but has other customization options that balance it out. Definitely order a new case - the clear one that comes with it if cheap. Itll prevent scratches, but I doubt theres any shock absorption in falls. The choices were limited when I purchased this because its a new model, but I went with Spigen Rugged Armor. I also ordered a 3 pack of 6 type c cables. The Supershieldz screen protector didnt work (air gap around the edges and loosened after a few weeks, effecting touch screen sensitivity, but at that point peeled off very easily).
