I wanted something more durable especially when it comes to water and since I was switching to AT&T the Active was an obvious choice. I've had the phone for a few days now and I'm really pleased with it, especially the camera and battery life. The first day I had almost 4 hours of screen on time which was close to full brightness and still had over 40% battery left. I thought that had to be a fluke or something but it's clearly not. Now to the point of my post, why is this phone not very popular? Why anyone would choose the regular S6 over the Active is beyond me. Does anyone think we'll ever see root on this phone? I'm very pleased with it out of the box but there's a few things I'd love root for. Like why does there have to be a persistent notification telling me I'm connected to wifi. That's the dumbest thing I've ever seen. I couldn't believe it couldn't be turned off.

Gotta change that sig as its all wrong now, lol.

What are some of your cons for the device?
I've heard various things about it, such as there's some faint line down the side of the screen on most all models.
Some people claim that the speak on speaker call sucks.
etc etc. Anything you don't really like about the phone that could be most people's gripe about it?
Mine works great. Nothing to complain about...

First, fingerprint sensor. I need security but entering pin/code every time I wanted to unlock the phone was cumbersome.
Second, is availability at the time of purchase. It wasn't apparently available with carriers in Canada.
Third, popularity, and community development and support. Galaxy s6 has more users, and therefore, more developers working on its rom.
Fourth, availability of accessories due to Galaxy S6 owner population vs Active.
I can overlook all other points, but missing the fingerprint sensor was a deal breaker for me.
For me, the lack of a fingerprint scanner isn't a deal-breaker. I guess I'm 'old school' or something. Though I understand the convenience of it.
I'm on the edge of picking up this phone, but, kind of worried about what type of specs the S7 Active will have and will it be worth the wait.
Currently with the S6 Active, my concerns are:
No Root (not a deal breaker)
Slowness of AT&T updates (not a deal breaker if ODIN is reliable and we can get timely firmware updates outside of AT&T)
Length of time it's taking to get to Marshmellow
Quality of speaker and using the speaker phone (I've heard that it's not too hot)
Lack of accessories (agree with you on this, doesn't seem a lot out there)
What I don't like about S6 Active:
Placement of the audio jack port. Really should be on the bottom, like the S6
No expandable memory option
No removable battery option (Not really a deal breaker if the battery has no issues and will remain effective for at least 3-4 years.)
Not enough bands to support international carriers and carrier aggregation support to the fullest by having as many bands possible (Not really a deal breaker, as I'll get a few where I am).
Touch-Wiz. Rather to to some stock android OS rather than have all the crap on the phone. (relates to having a root)
But beyond all of the above, the phone looks really really nice and I'll likely pick it up anyways, for lack of anything better, IMO.
I was thinking Nexus 6P, but it's just too big for me.
Nexus 5X, just kinda of too weak for me. (has less bands than Nexus 6P, actually)
I was thinking just a regular S6, but like the Active design better.
Just bought one,for durability, came from the V10 and loving it so far.
Succumbed
Well, I picked up this phone(64GB Version). Got it to update to 5.1.1.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but this phone is simply beautiful.
The weighting and feel is also very very nice.
It's a quite zippy and fast phone.
So far, on the whole I'm liking this phone alot.
However some points I've come across. Any suggestions or resolutions welcome.
Minor Dislikes:
Forced to see carrier's name on top-left of lock screen (Not just specific to this phone)
└ I'd prefer to see useful icons on the status bar(left-hand side) during the phone being locked.
Notifications Management
└ In order to remove Heads UP notifications, I've had to download an application like: HeadsOff└ Some applications, in order to see the icon in the status bar, the rectangular static notification remains on the lock screen, wasting screen real-estate. There's no way to remove this static notification from the lock screen without adjusting the settings to remove notifications from the app, and then that removes the icon in the status bar.└ Some applications like Accu Radio won't show the player controls on the lock screen. No matter what combination of notification settings are used. (Not really the phone's fault but..)
Fingerprint Scanner Lacking
└ While the Active doesn't have a fingerprint button to scan fingerprint to unlock the phone, I thought Samsung had some models that used the actual screen to do this. If so, the option would be nice to have on the Active
Headphone Jack Location (Not just specific to this phone)
└ I still don't see why phone makers are putting the jack at the top of the phone. Many people put their phone in their pocket. The natural insertion direction is the way one is holding it at the time of use, the top goes into the pocket first. Yet if the audio cable/jack is jutting out from the top, it makes it hard to put in the pocket, as well as decreases the life of the cable, etc. (not a deal-breaker, but an annoyance for sure)
Touchscreen SUPER sensitive
└ I've found that the screen is simply overly sensitive to touch and find myself many times mistakenly activating something else, before my finger even touches the screen.└ Currently I do not have a screen protector for the phone, so not sure this will matter.
Other's Pain points:
Speaker Location/Quality
└ While the speaker isn't in the best of locations, I haven't really noticed and sound degradation/quality. It's a mini speaker. We can't expect blasting Dolby 7.1 haha
Active Key easy to press accidently
└ I have not found any problem with this, and I typically don't encounter having this button activated unintentionally with my day to day use.└ Some applications like Accu Radio won't show the player controls on the lock screen. No matter what combination of notification settings are used. (Not really the phone's fault but..)

Add another dislike:
Samsung Touchwiz and how it handles, doesn't allow handling of LED definition.
Unfortunately, Samsung, in their infinite wisdom, have blown up their Touchwiz and made it virtually impossible for applications like Lightflow, to define custom LED colors for applications.
The best that can happen is that some 'workaround' by the author of Lightflow can be used, but that just leaves the Badges and Notifications icons on the status bar for you to clear out manually, after reading your email or messages.
Price to pay to have any control over LED.....
Just one more reason I want root....
So I bought the LED flip cover for my S7 Edge (EF-NG935). Although its a really good quality case I have issues with its software. The LED's on the case display the time, receiving a call or a text and afterwards it goes dark. There is no way for me to see if I have a notification on my phone. Usually the phone LED would flash slowly notifying me to check my phone. Other than that the Flip cover LED does not notify me for any general notification (viber,facebook etc). Not even when i receive a message on them. So there is no way for me to see that i just received a message or that I had received a message. Other than that it doesn't display music bars when music is playing or the volume.
What it would be excellent is that the LED's should be always on (hence low consumption). In case of a notification it should display the icon of the app that I got a notification from. The LEDs are quite a lot so its easy to figure out what app send the notification. The case costed 70 Euros which are quite a lot. There should be a customization software or something. Samsung needs to address this issue. My ROM version is : G935FXXU1APAW
I agree 100%. One of the great things about Android phones are the LED notifications, but this cover covers it and it should IMO show notifications on the cover.
Just a simple blinking diod would even be good enough.
Disappointing
Or make the dot leds always on! Can we edit it's settings with root? Does anyone have knowledge how to? The led view flip cover is really nice and has potential. But right now it's not even working right.
I reported the issue to samsung...but I'm not expecting much...xda devs is the only salvation haha. Any rom cookers that can help?
When i went to a samsung store to buy the led flip case, the first one i used had an issue like yours so we cracked open another case and tried it on and the 2nd one works like a charm and as a matter of fact no issues until now.
My previous experiences tell me that the sensor itself is faulty on the case. Go to your nearest samsung store and try a new led flip case. See if the issue is still there on a new case.
Does it show all general notifications? Like what's up, Facebook,etc? Because mine shows only time, battery charging, incoming call,and sms. No general notifications...and furthermore it should stay on all the time so I know I had a notification..like the phone led! I'll go try another one Monday...but I still want to see customization on the led case. Always on option...app icons etc.
Please explain how your case works? General notifications etc...
Ok so I was doing some googling on this, and found that it seems to work with Nova Launcher Prime + TeslaUnread (their unread badge plugin). It seems to show four dots spinning on other Samsung LED flip covers.
I don't have Nova Launcher Prime, so I can't test it. If you do, please feel free to try!
edit: ok so I've got nova launcher prime now, and it still doesn't work..
I got my info from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/accessories/led-case-review-t2993839/page2
edit 2: from reading a bit more, the note 4 led cover had some support for 3rd party apps, but that seems to be gone with S7 LED cover..
So there is a way to control it! We just need the software! Great work @dogans ! Anyone who can give us some help? I'm sure its not such a hard thing to do...if it could only take the notification bar icons...and show em on..that would be great. For example if you have a viber text...it should show a viber icon always on till you read it!

Notification only works with standard sms, prompt to swipe for call only happens when receiving calls, music player led only works with samsung music app, alarm clock with samsung built in clock app.
No 3rd party notification support.
Led doesnt stay lit all the time.
It was meant to do that.
And if u wanna check the time u can press the power/lock button.
Well that's no good. First of all..even if I get a standard sms or call..after it lids up for some seconds then it goes dark. The phone led is covered so how I supposed to notice I got a notification. If someone is willing to modify its settings or make a small app to take control of it that would be great. It's highly inefficient as is.
Luckily i read it. I was planning to buy one. Saved some money there.

No you should buy it...it's a really nice case! Even without the notifications...and I'm sure it's a matter of time till we get it right! Haha! I don't think there is a better case..leather plus led
Update: the case works with samsung music player. Wish it would stay on all the time. Volume shows up as well. So the only thing that doesn't work is general notifications and always on (which it's a must if you ask me)

Im not too sure but the number of leds there > number of lcds on a 5" lcd smartphone. If its always on, theres bound to be a huge battery drain
Well at least one led should fade in and out just to let you know you have a notification... Like the phone LED on top of the screen. Can someone write an app to control it? Or at least enable general notifications.
hi, i got problem with this s7 edge led flip case. somethimes it show the clock when i close it but sometimes not. already claim the warranty, and got new one but sadly it happen again after several hour using. one thing i noticed when the led it not show , then put my phone back on metal object suddenly led is working. what do u guys think, problem came from the case or the phone itself?
Probably nfc interference... The case works fine here. Except the above complaints. Try testing it on someone's else's phone. And try your nfc with another phone as well. If both works fine its a software problem. Hard reset!

I have the same problem like this. If the phone
attached with another phone the LED
can work properly,
But if not attached the LED not working.
Picked one up today, tried the hopeless Samsung Experience store in London - who had no S7 Edge cases at all !!!
Went to Carphone Warehouse and got a 3 for 2 deal, but again only bought the LED as that was all they had. Works fine, but boring the led as always with Samsung great idea (hardware) poor software failure to exploit hardware potential.
so did anyone figure out how to modify its software? it shouldnt be that hard i guess.
So I'm coming from a 5X that had a nice RGB LED, I was able to set different colors for different apps and could tell from across the room what if any notifications I had - no need to look at it for more than a second or 2 or pick it up or anything. I could then respond accordingly: White - email, probably just spam ignore it; Green - text, get to it when not busy; Pink - tinder, drop the baby and run for the phone.
With the x4 I seem to have taken a step backwards - the screen lights up with the clock and an icon for whatever notification (but I have to be standing right by the phone to see the specific icon). But the bigger issue is it only lights up once when the notification comes in - I really don't need to know I have a notification when it comes in (I heard the chime or vibrate) but I would love to be able to walk away from my phone, glance at it and know if I missed anything without having to pick it up. I'm not sure a world where I have to move my phone every time I come back to it could be considered convenient.
From what I have seen online it described the phone has breathing (pulsing every now and then) when you have an active notification, but this was earlier Moto models - I get just one notification at the time it comes in and nothing else ever. Unless I move the phone - which brings me to the 2nd issue, the sensitivity of the motion sensor, I can have the phone on my desk or couch cushion next to me and just placing a remote down near it or typing the phone is constantly lighting up (even when I don't have a notification) I have the Approach for Moto Display turned off and it definitely has to be moved, but just the tiniest of amount - I get the feature is designed for people that want to grab the phone to see the time and not have to turn it on, but there is a huge difference between the slight vibration from typing on a keyboard next to it vs. actually picking the thing up.
If Motorola/Lenovo is going to want people to embrace Moto Display at least make it so it isn't constantly flashing away for no reason.
Anyway are my experiences the norm? While I would love to be able to turn the motion sensor off for Moto Display my big issue is lack of persistent notification notifying without any interaction from me.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/themes/app-frontflash-notification-v1-7-t3740066
Yea, it's working "as intended". It was a poor choice really to disable the notification LED from the phone. I think it's fine on Amoled displays that can have the breathing without affecting battery life too much, but it's not the case here.
Although I generally like the high sensitivity of the Moto Display. I leave the aporoach feature disabled, and everytime I go by my phone when it's in a table or something I just push it slightly to check the notifications, it's way more convenient than to use the power button and gives more information than a RGB LED.
Thank you both, yes I did some more digging and seems like they did away with the 'breathing' feature.
I'll try that front flash app,
This whole thing just seems a little poorly thought out - disable the breathing so as not to reduce battery life, but make the user pickup the phone periodically which decreases battery life.
I get if they want to do something different than a notification LED but not everyone wants to pick up there phone every X minutes to see if they missed something.
Least I now know when it periodically turns on the Moto Display its not to remind of a current notification its just the stupid motion sensor being way to sensitive.
It is normal. In my opinion the Moto display on the new Moto are not as sensitive as older models like the Moto x pure. You were able to literally wave your hand over the screen to see notifications and time and battery level. However I still love the active display. But I also miss the notification light. But because of the active display they felt like their was no need for led notification. The Moto x4 is still a great handset with features that many people actually use like active display. I have used Samsung and Sony and lg and always had issues. Since the Moto x first came out and bought it I have never had issues with hardware or software. Sure the updates may take a lifetime however Motorola in my opinion is the bear handset for me in terms of quality. It helps tho that even with Android one or Nexus out their that Moto has almost near clean stock of Android than any other manufacturer.
I can see the argument for not needing a LED when MotoDisplay would 'breath' and periodically show the notifications, but now they have done away with that it seems like an LED would really help. That being said I am trying to adjust and get into the habit of nudging the phone when I come back to it.
Hi, I am a long time Samsung Galaxy user, my last phone was the Galaxy S8+ i have just come to upgrade and thought I’d try the Huawei P30 Pro and seems it uses android as well, i thought it can't be much different. i have 14 days return and I’m really not sure if i am going to keep it or ask can i swap for an S10+
I don't know if i am just being biased because I’ve had Samsung for so long but i just hope someone here can persuade me keeping the P30 won't be too bad and that some of my issues are fixable.
I don't seem to be getting some notifications, mainly games, i seem to get texts but not always others, although if i turn my s8+ on, they still seem to be coming through on there. I have checked most settings i can find but can't see anything obvious, i have added the games to the app assistant.
I didn't know that this Huawei phone didn't have a notification LED, i guess it’s only a small thing but it's amazing how much you miss that flashing light, are there any ways to get any other screen notifications in some way?
The phone doesn't retain the Auto brightness setting when i restart the phone, I’m a bit confused by this as it would seem that Huawei may have this as a feature rather than a bug, I’ve read online that this is how these phones are set but surely you would want the setting to be retained how you leave it? is this a bug or here to stay? i keep turning auto off but every time i restart its back on!
The vibrate is extremely shallow to the point i hardly even feel it.
The optical zoom doesn't function if in 40mp resolution? what’s that all about, i tried it earlier and it says on it that it only works in 10mp resolution? the res you are in shouldn't stop the optics from moving should it? Also when set to 10mp and you can zoom, the zooming isn’t smooth in any way at all, it looks extremely jerky.
even though i have auto brightness off and also smart resolution set to off (which switches between low and high depending on what’s on the screen) - even though these are off i keep seeing my screen kind of flickering when i switch between something like a website to a picture etc, like the phone is still using the smart resolution. if i go to a website the white parts might be bright white for a split second then kind of flicker to a duller white.
I have only had the phone for 2 days but that’s is what is kind of bugging me a bit already if anyone can advise at all on any of them issues?
Thanks
James
About the "zoom", it's not an actual zoom and you are misunderstanding how it works. Having a look at the backside of the phone would explain some to you but i'll give it a go..
You got three lenses which equals three fixed focal lengths. This means you are simply jumping from one camera to the other when you perform a "zoom", which explains the jerkiness. It's expected behavior and is supposed to work like that since there is no gradual zoom with moving lense elements.
Each of these cameras have their own sensor which works at specific megapixels, there is no 40mpix sensor in all these three camera modules on the back of the device. The 5x tele lens has a 8mpix sensor. The ultrawide angle 16mm sensor is 20mpix and the main sensor is 40mpix which normally operates at 10mpix due to pixel binning.
The auto brightness is a long standing bug on Huawei devices, it's annoying and stupid i agree but it's there.

Samsung has gone a step further on improving there software. Its really fluid and very user friendly. Huawei should focus on that aspect on there flagship.

One little thing I miss from my Galaxy S8+ was the coloured app notification icons on the Always On Display.
Was good for seeing where my notifications were from at-a-glance (blue for Messenger, red for YouTube, green for WhatsApp etc.).
Not having any of those problems with mine. In fact I'm ditching my Galaxy S10+ and keeping the P30 Pro. The fingerprint scanner on the Huawei is faster and more reliable than the one on the Samsung, the camera setup is far more versatile, battery life is better and I immediately stick Nova launcher on anyway so I don't have to put up with EMUI or One UI.

Nova is just the launcher. The system UI controls far more aspects than just the launcher. EMUI/One UI is everywhere.

1. It's not Samsung
2. I had the S10... this camera is superior in every way except maybe video... (I don't shoot video in 4K for my purposes so it doesn't bother me)
3. Above camera superiority overall, the 5x & 10x zooms brings a whole new world of shooting pictures. I can truly leave a big camera / big lens at home now.
4. More true-tone pictures... people hate to admit this... but the real world is not over-saturated... Apple, Samsung, etc. stop promoting this as the normal for picture taking....
5. Features yet to be turned on but soon in updates... dual video record (maybe), TOF Sensor utilization (next update), etc.
Honestly though, I'm not a complete Samsung hater. I just hate the way Samsung does business... how can they release their "flagship" S10+ then months later add features to the 5G phone they definitely should have been included with the original... like the additional lenses... Am I considering the Samsung S10 5G. Sure I am... Will I maybe wait for the Mate 30 Pro... more than likely. Huawei, for all the talk about what they steal, they also keep trying to innovate... unlike Apple and to some extent Samsung.
At the end of the day, reserve your judgement until you get to use the camera on the phone when you need a zoom... like at a zoo, concert, etc. where you can't be right against the action... take a few pictures then compare to maybe your friends pictures... you'll then realize what the hype is over... :good:

Nova is just the launcher. The system UI controls far more aspects than just the launcher. EMUI/One UI is everywhere.

I appreciate your point but unless you're an obsessive settings tweaker (which I'm not - once my phone is set to my liking I leave it alone) EMUI/One UI fades in to the background.

That's the thing; it doesn't just disappear.
I use Nova Launcher too but here are some EMUI annoyances (for me):
Not being able to open the tray from the lock screen
No quick launch shortcut to launch the camera from anywhere (such as double-pressing the power button)
The Phone app taking over any active app (annoying when navigating with Google Maps)

Fair points. You can launch the camera by double pressing volume down though. Haven't come across the phone/Map problem yet.
How can you not the love when you get shots like this

I know. But if you've already got the phone unlocked I've never found shortcuts to the camera to be of much use. As they say, YMMV.

The google maps issue is just a settings tweak with app draw over preferences.
the choices made by Huawei are logical ones... for Instance:
1. Tray not being able to open from lockscreen - this is annoying but the logical Hauwei take on this is that it doesn't allow someone to mess with the phone settings until security is verified... I'll give you the iPhone as an example. I can get into the app drawer from the lockscreen without anything being verified security wise meaning I can harmlessly turn on someone's flashlight if I wanted to as a prank (to let the battery drain faster) all the way up to maliciously turning off all connectivity of the phone... meaning calls, emails, etc. can't get to the phone... can you see the issues this may cause? personally the annoyance is small to my piece of mind that no one can screw with anything on my phone.
2. My theme has quick launch on lockscreen for camera... or press volume down twice so its in there you just can't readily tweak it
I have read online about the setting for app power consumption and to switch manage automatically off so that the phone wont keep alls from receiving notifications and let them run in the background. will have to try it and see.

Hi, I am a long time Samsung Galaxy user, my last phone was the Galaxy S8+ i have just come to upgrade and thought I’d try the Huawei P30 Pro and seems it uses android as well, i thought it can't be much different. i have 14 days return and I’m really not sure if i am going to keep it or ask can i swap for an S10+
I don't know if i am just being biased because I’ve had Samsung for so long but i just hope someone here can persuade me keeping the P30 won't be too bad and that some of my issues are fixable.
I don't seem to be getting some notifications, mainly games, i seem to get texts but not always others, although if i turn my s8+ on, they still seem to be coming through on there. I have checked most settings i can find but can't see anything obvious, i have added the games to the app assistant.
I didn't know that this Huawei phone didn't have a notification LED, i guess it’s only a small thing but it's amazing how much you miss that flashing light, are there any ways to get any other screen notifications in some way?
The phone doesn't retain the Auto brightness setting when i restart the phone, I’m a bit confused by this as it would seem that Huawei may have this as a feature rather than a bug, I’ve read online that this is how these phones are set but surely you would want the setting to be retained how you leave it? is this a bug or here to stay? i keep turning auto off but every time i restart its back on!
The vibrate is extremely shallow to the point i hardly even feel it.
The optical zoom doesn't function if in 40mp resolution? what’s that all about, i tried it earlier and it says on it that it only works in 10mp resolution? the res you are in shouldn't stop the optics from moving should it? Also when set to 10mp and you can zoom, the zooming isn’t smooth in any way at all, it looks extremely jerky.
even though i have auto brightness off and also smart resolution set to off (which switches between low and high depending on what’s on the screen) - even though these are off i keep seeing my screen kind of flickering when i switch between something like a website to a picture etc, like the phone is still using the smart resolution. if i go to a website the white parts might be bright white for a split second then kind of flicker to a duller white.
I have only had the phone for 2 days but that’s is what is kind of bugging me a bit already if anyone can advise at all on any of them issues?
Thanks

Funny enough, I also upgraded from an S8+. There are definitely minor bugs, but nothing deal-breaking for me. As for notifications lagging behind, it's a known Huawei bug. You need to turn off auto-app management for the apps you want to get notifications pushed.

I had every Galaxy S and Note phones that were ever released, every one. Last year, I was interested in the P20 P30, ditched my S9 for my first Huawei phone ever, and I loved every bit of it. Then I skipped on pre-ordering the Note 9, something I have never done before, I waited because I wanted to get the Mate 20 Pro, but that was a bad experience for me and my wife, as we had 6 units replaced in total due to glue gate. After returning it, I went back to Samsung, got the Note 9, and I was then reminded how bad Samsung's cameras have gone when compared to the latest from Huawei, Google, and Apple. Still, I believed that Samsung will definitely deliver with the S10, and the moment it was announced, I pulled the plug and ordered two S10 Plus for myself and my wife. Just 3 weeks were enough for me to get sick of it's subpar low light photography, especially indoors and mainly if you're taking pictures of kids, as Samsung cameras struggle with moving objects. My wife doesn't care that much about cameras, but I do, so I ditched it for the P30 Pro and I couldn't be any happier with it in my pocket.
The camera is much better than the one on the S10, especially if we are talking about the exynos version, which was the case for me. Videos might not be up to Samsung and Apple's standards, but at 1080 it is close, and even better in low light situations and indoors as well. Battery life is much better, the UI while isn't the prettiest, it feels a bit more zippy than the S10, which isn't a slouch either.
Now fixes for your problems.
For notifications, go to battery settings, and select the apps you don't want the phone to put in sleep, you won't be missing your notifications after that.
Notifications led is also missing on the S10, so on both phones you'll have to rely on AOD, which for some reason, doesn't affect your battery life on the P30 Pro as much as it did for me on the S10.
Fps while it was improved after the latest update, and I can confirm that it got significantly better, it's still no match in terms of accuracy and speed to the one on the P30 Pro.
Accidental touches are a nightmare on the S10 Plus, the curve is smaller, but it sits much closer to your palm. An issue that I don't face on the P30 Pro.
From my 6 months experience with the P20 Pro, the camera on the P30 Pro will improve by at least 20%, with every update, Huawei makes sure they keep on improving their image processing. While on Samsung, and I am sure you know that, Samsung only irons out the camera issues that comes with the software that the phone was released with, so after a month or so, forget about Samsung working on improving your pictures.
Pardon me for the long ass essay, but from my experience with Samsung phones, and the S10 in particular, I would advise you to hold on to your phone. Their is a learning curve for their UI, but once you get it, you'll love your phone.
Thanks for the replies, what themes are people using? I have tried the app management setting and it did seem to have fixed my notification issue.

Not having any of those problems with mine. In fact I'm ditching my Galaxy S10+ and keeping the P30 Pro. The fingerprint scanner on the Huawei is faster and more reliable than the one on the Samsung, the camera setup is far more versatile, battery life is better and I immediately stick Nova launcher on anyway so I don't have to put up with EMUI or One UI.

I also use Nova Launcher - Since Galaxy S6 - and haven't looked back!
I'm very surprised (and very pleased) to hear that the finger print scanner on the P30 works faster AND more reliable than the one on S10+ - can you please elaborate more?
I noticed that mine works very well, actually extremely well. Always wondered what the ultrasonic reader must be like if the claim of being more accurate is true!!???
Just bought a global version of the nubia red magic 3 and the display has a red tint like the ones on Samsung S8.. It got worse as it was emphasised when I turned on the night light:crying:

Well if it's too bad and you bought from Red Magic Store you do have 12 month warranty. But updates would be nice for sure.

Indeed, literally I circumvent it by turning off Adaptive brightness and leave it on 50%, the game launcher has brightness control built in too so that helps. If you want gestures, I can recommend "Fluid NG" in the playstore, then run the adb command to hide stock navigation and you can turn it off and on when you want. The CN Rom truly is great but the SMS system is not good in US with their WeChat or whatever it's called lol. Plus LTE won't work you can only get 4g on CN.

RM3, 8/128GB, Red, NA variant.
Just got the phone. First impressions here first. I'll probably write a full review with pictures in a separate thread.
There's no particular order of importance of these following points.
1) The phone is gorgeous - it's a stunner. Also, huge. Makes my old OP6 look small. Side note: there's only swiping down from notification portion of the screen - meaning that you have to reach to the very top with the first swipe. But overall one-handed operation is not that much different from OP6 - in other words, tough.
2) Less slippery than all glass OP6. Feels really good holding it.
3) The display quality is on par with OP6. Not quite as picturesque as a GS9 display, but very nice looking. Haven't tested it in full sunlight yet. Also, the display is huge. Literally feels much bigger than OP6. The bezels are noticeable, but are definitely not a problem because most apps hide them.
4) Display 90Hz - you notice it right away and then you forget about it. But when I went to OP6 (the fastest phone I've used before,) it felt a bit choppy. 90Hz is real. Also, the phone itself feels significantly faster than OP6 - boot up, how quickly widgets update after a reboot, etc.
5) The battery is... fantastic - I'm so far projecting about 11 hours SOT.
6) The camera is MEH. I'll have to test it more, but so far it looks like a weaker version of OP6, which was already meh. I'm sure it's gonna provide excellent pictures in good light (haven't tried), but in low light - not so good. For example, 48mp mode is completely useless in low light. You have to switch to 12mp to get a decent shot (it combines 4 pixels into one to get more light.) I tried a few Google Cam apks, but haven't found one that worked.
7) There are bugs:
a) My sim card won't allow to set up call forwarding with AT&T. It works fine with OP6. Gonna get a new sim card tomorrow.
b) Swype keyboard (old apk) just doesn't stick. I tried like a million of different ones, none stick - phone always reverts to GBoard. Maybe it's an Android Pie issue. Very annoying.
c) Chromecast and Smart TV work perfectly except for one thing - screen mirroring doesn't work with Chromecast. You can stream, cast, mirror with TV etc, but that one single thing just doesn't work - it says Connecting...
Overall, I'm very happy with the phone, provides I can resolve some of the issues above.
Just bought the eco-sport case... It's worth the price, but if you are planning to use or buy the controller, just by the the case suitable to it...
UPDATE on the Red one:
1) Chromecast now works with screen mirroring just fine - must have needed to be rebooted.
2) I think the issue with the sim card and not being able to configure call forwarding is almost clear now - the card reports the Slot 1 IMEI as CDMA (14 digits). But even the Slot 2 IMEI (15 digits) gives an error "Network or Sim Card error." Called ATT and they recommended a new sim card, free of charge. When I get a new sim card tomorrow I will report back.
3) I have a serious issue with either the phone or the power button position. My phone rebooted 3 times in 5 minutes today. It may have been me inadvertently pressing the power button w/o realizing it. It it may be a defective phone. I rebooted the phone, cleared cache in recovery, and there were no more problems. However, the power button is in a perfect position for my thumbs, both hands, to press that button without realizing it. Maybe I'm holding it wrong.
UPDATE #2:
1) I'm still struggling with some issues but I am also getting some resolved. The power button thing came back once - I still cannot tell what the problem is.
2) On the bright side - this camera is amazing in bright light and medium light conditions.
I took some photos in good and dim lights. The results were spectacular.
Example - a room was illuminated by a single weak lamp and a distant window full of sunlight. The 12mp picture was as good if not better than a Galaxy S9 picture.
This was significantly better than OP6.
I think if someone made a Google Cam port for this camera, it would be flagship level quality.
Guys, FYI, some of our questions might be answered through this link: https://bbs.nubia.cn/thread-1472848-1-1.html
[The system of XDA won't allow me to share this as a new thread so I'll just post this a reply]
It's in Mandarin but google will translate the texts..
For those who worry about the security of the thread, here are its contents:
(P.S. They refer to the Red Magic 3 as Red Devil 3)
Since the launch of the Red Devils 3, due to its strong performance, super heat dissipation, cool appearance, and long-lasting battery life, it has attracted many magic beans to place orders at the first time. The first 90Hz screen, 4D shock and five-finger control are well received.
After the listing of the Red Devils 3, we also received feedback from some enthusiastic magic beans, and compiled this quick question for some of the more feedback problems, hoping to help everyone get started smoothly~
PS: It is expected that a new version will be pushed at the end of May (actually likely to be advanced) to focus on some of the more feedbacks.
Please have the magic beans in need to leave IMEI in this questionnaire, we will give priority to push. Https://wj.qq.com/s2/3664012/b082/
Red Devils 3 Q & A APP Banner.jpg
1, the screen has a distinct graininess, the resolution is not so high. It doesn't look too delicate, can you feel the granularity?
A: Previously, on some models, to save memory usage, the resolution of the built-in wallpaper was reduced.
Subsequent we will increase the resolution of our own wallpaper. Please download the HD wallpaper yourself to experience the clarity of the screen.
2, the screen color is a bit rich, the color temperature is a bit yellow when the eye protection mode is not opened, is it yellower than the first generation?
A: The Red Devil 3 is an AMOLED material, which is more beautiful than the LCD display. It is a normal phenomenon.
Regarding the color temperature, the factory is adjusted according to the style of the public, and also supports customization.
You can go to the Settings - Display - Screen Color Display and adjust to your favorite color temperature on the palette according to your own habits.
3. I feel that the top speaker sound is smaller than the bottom sound speaker. It sounds like no texture, no bass effect?
A: In order to give users a better gaming experience, the Red Devils 3 uses a dual-speaker and dual-tone intelligent power amplifier solution to increase the volume.
In the audio design, in order to ensure the balance of volume and tone, the upper speaker is mainly used to output the medium-high frequency band. The lower speaker outputs a full-band solution for an excellent listening experience.
In the actual experience, the external stereo is very obvious, please feel free to use.
4, my mobile phone protective film is smashed, watching how some bubbles are going on?
A: I am very sorry to bring you a bad experience. Please call the after-sales customer service 400-700-6600 for this question. For the flaw on the film, we will give you a new film for free.
5, sometimes the phone will automatically restart, how is this going?
A: We have located the reason and will resolve this issue in the next release, please update to the latest version to experience.
6, playing games sometimes encounter breaks?
A: The new version has been optimized for touch. Please update to the latest version after V2.14 and later. We will continue to follow this feedback in the future.
7, a key change machine connection timeout, Sony mobile phones and Xiaomi 8 can not connect.
A: Please upgrade your phone to the latest version first. We will also perform internal verification simultaneously, and will fix it as soon as possible if it is confirmed that there is a problem. If the new version is still not resolved, you can contact the after-sales service for testing.
8. Feel that the right side of the capacitor button is not sensitive.
A: Since the scene of the right capacitor button was found to be inadvertently touched during the test, some adjustments were made later.
We have feedback optimization for such issues. If it is more influential, please contact the after-sales service for testing.
9, playing the king's glory encounters the problem of crashing and crashing.
A: Please update your mobile phone to the latest version and experience it. If there is still a recurrence, you can contact the after-sales service.
10. Can't connect to WiFi? It will not work after restarting and restoring the factory settings.
A: Since Android 9.0 has improved security permissions, the switch to add a hidden network is turned off by default.
To add a hidden network, open Settings - WLAN, slide to the bottom, click "Add Network", then click "Hide Network", select "Yes", and then enter the name of the hotspot you want to add to add it.
If the WiFi network that is normally displayed directly cannot be connected, please provide the brand and model of the router. We will transfer it to R&D for analysis, and we suggest that you contact the after-sales detection process directly.
11. The fever is a bit big when playing games.
A: Turning on the "Red Devils Time" will result in a slight increase in power consumption and heat. You can try to close it first. The specific path is: enter the game space, click on the avatar in the upper right corner, click on “Time Setting”, and click on the first item “Red Devil Time” to close. At the same time, click “fan adjustment” to turn on the cooling fan and adjust the fan speed to “quick cooling”.
12. The triangle on the right side of the back cover logo light is found to be out of color, and the top left of the camera is also. I thought it was the oil on my hand. I cleaned it with a wet tissue and found it to fade.
Answer: The logo on the back cover LOGO lamp and the camera is laser engraved, which belongs to physical etching. In theory, it will not “color fade”. This may be caused by dirt on the surface. Please wipe it with a dry cloth or a corner of the clothes to return to normal.
13, using Huawei, Xiaomi and other friends charger and data cable can not be charged, unplug the charger still shows charging?
A: Since the chargers and data lines of different manufacturers have their own optimization and limitations, it is recommended to charge the mobile phone only with the original standard charger and data cable.
14, stimulating the battlefield game is prone to the right perspective can not move?
A: This problem is generally caused by the position of the palm of the right hand pressing to the edge of the screen when the horizontal screen is held, causing the finger to move. It is recommended to adjust the holding posture appropriately. Subsequent versions will also be optimized for such scenarios.
15. After setting the screen refresh rate to 90FPS in the game space, is there a feeling of spurring the battlefield?
A: At present, only some games support the 90FPS refresh rate. Since the stimulus battlefield does not support 90FPS display temporarily, it is recommended to set the screen refresh rate to 60FPS or “Auto”. The recommended setting is “Auto”, and the game works better when the game settings match the screen refresh rate.
16. What is the effective rate of the 240Hz touch screen reporting rate?
A: Add the app to the game space application list. The application in the game space list can support the 240Hz touch screen report rate regardless of whether it is open in the game space.
17. When the hands are held horizontally (especially in the game state), the WiFi signal is affected?
A: The Red Devils esports game phone uses a dual antenna design. The WiFi antenna is located on both sides of the top of the phone. It is recommended that you do not hold the top of the phone with your palm when playing games or watching movies on the horizontal screen. Use your fingers to support your phone to prevent the phone's wifi signal from being blocked.
18. Will the fan get into the water and get into the ash?
A: The fan body can achieve IP55 waterproof and dustproof, and all of them have passed relevant tests. Please feel free to use them. It is recommended that you use them with care to avoid any troubles to your experience.
19. Can't connect to the computer?
A: The latest bidirectional Type-C data cable is included in the package, not the traditional data cable with USB interface.
If your computer is relatively new, with a Type-C interface (smaller, similar to the charging interface on the bottom of the phone), the original data cable included in the package can be directly connected.
If your computer comes with a normal USB interface (traditional, larger USB interface), use a traditional Type-C data cable with a USB interface. In most cases, the data cable can be used universally.
But be careful not to use the Huawei brand data cable, you may encounter compatibility issues.
After plugging in the computer, you need to unlock the phone first, and click the top line from the drop-down status bar to say "Android system is charging this device via USB", click on the menu, and then select "Transfer File", then you can get from the computer. I saw the connection information. If you still have problems, please contact the after-sales detection process.
20, the system is too inhuman, and add some daily application functions. WeChat Alipay payment code sweep, shortcut keys to open flashlights and so on.
A: The above said that there is already, please pull down the notification bar, swipe to the right, click "+", which is "custom".
Go to the bottom of the page to list more switches, click to add the switch you need, long press the added switch, you can freely adjust the position of the shortcut switch.

Interesting.
