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

I got this phone because my previous phone was a Huawei as well , that worked very well. was totally satisfied with it. But this made more happy, it works really fast, so for the price I can not ask for more, and the camera is so profesional, love the whole pack.

I love this phone, works in US with cricket. Takes great pictures. I only have to charge it every other day, posibbly 3 days if I didnt use it as much. I love the fact it has a USB-C charging port and a headphone jack. Everything I would need came in the phones box (charger, Sim key, headphones, a simple clear case) . I bought this in December and its still great. Easy to use, although I did have to go through my service carrier to enable multi media messaging. I bought a case and screen protector since Im a phone dropper and this phone still holds up! You my think, well duh but let me tell you even with protection I mess my phones up... The purple screen of death took my last phones life...

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).

Its an ok phone for the cheap price. If you are expecting flagship quality youll be sorely disappointed. It definitely has some glaring flaws. The cons 1. Blue screen that you cannot soften. No night sight either. 2. Alot of bad background noise during conversations to the point that it hurts the other persons ears. 3. Its difficult to hear the speaker. 4. It runs out of battery very quickly(about 2 hours of continual use or 5-6 hours of little to no useage) 5. The screen cracks easily The pros 1. Good quality photos considering how cheap the phone is. They arent flagship quality,but they arent terrible either. For someone that just wants them for memories it works just fine. 2. Its a sleek thin phone thats easy to handle despite its weight. 3. The price is very reasonable 4. It is a factory unlocked phone just as advertised. For a cheap phone its not bad at all. I wouldnt purchase it for anyone doing physical labour or exercise especially outdoors since the slightest bump inside a case will cause the screen to crack. And it will keep cracking from different spots Everytime its bumped until you lose pieces of the screen.

Great budget phone, it is useful for most daily tasks. Do not expect top of the line performances, you are buying a low budget phone; but if you play casual games, and mostly use internet, email and youtube; this phone is all you need for cheap, and feel solid. Battery last the whole day and often, even 2, depending on usage

Given that this phone has so many features and is less than 300.00 it not a bad buy at all. Keyboard is very responsive. Apps load quickly and battery life is the bomb. And I love the camera. If these features were on a Samsung phone I would have had to pay way more.....im being honest. So far no complaints at all. Ill give an update in the next 3 months

I really liked this phone. Snappy, decent camera and fantastic battery. But it has a major issue, it has very poor to non existent support for T-Mobile LTE in the US even though the specs and description says it supports LTE bands, 2/4/12. After being in one location like my home or office, it would stop receiving calls and they would be sent straight to voicemail. Once it starts, the only option is turning off 4G or turning airplane mode off and on to get it to be recognized by the network. I was told that it is because the phone does not support VoLTE and would fail when dropping to 3G to receive a call. Now I knew the phone did not support VoLTE, but neither did my last phone and it worked flawlessly. I reset the phone, got a replacement SIM and spent many hours trying to solve this. The worst part is calling worked fine and I did not even know I had an issue until a client tried to get a hold of me and I would not pick up. He ended up contacting someone else for support and I lost the job. He did leave a message, but the message didn’t show up until I reconnected to the network. So, I loss nearly $500 because of it. Overall I am really upset that this did not work. It seems to be a really nice phone, just not for US T-Mobile. Also, when researching it seems this will be an issue with AT&T and any GSM carrier in the US as they all use ether T-Mobile or AT&T towers.

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.

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.

good product, but the screen is easy to break even with a cover
