OIS is a really annoying problem on emui 9.1
I know that the last version of emui is the best in term of battery life and performance. BUT for those who come back to 8 for the OIS problem: is really true?
I try gcam mod to take videos but I really don't know if it's working. I always see tremble in videos.

Hey guys, I'm seriously considering getting a Huawei P9. I'm not a big fan of EMUI [i currently own Huawei GR5 (Honor 5X)], but the P9 pretty much the best device in my budget.
Hows the entire user experience? battery life? Speed?!
Since it's Kirin CPU, I'm guessing we'll not see CM on this device for some time? lol
Also, which model is more popular? In terms of software update availability and stuff? L19? L09? or L29?
From my own experience I came from a LG G4, yeh it has an excellent camera and fluid as hell, but I changed 'cuz the battery life (in G4 it suck , charging almost every day, and stopping data and/or wifi to extend it a little more)... Huawei P9 has an awesome battery.. with 31% you can still have like ~10hr (wifi/data on non stop).. Speed?? 3 GB Ram is more than enough, really good, I don't care about how many apps I opened, the response it's fluid and without lags.
I have both the P9 and galaxy S7 because I can't decide which I like the best. So here are my thoughts:
The P9 is the best allrounder, it beats the S7 on nearly everything except the camera and overall functionality.
The camera in P9 is good but compared to the S7 it blow chunks! It is so big difference you can't ignore it.
The more money u have to pay for the S7 is worth it.
And then there is the Emui, it's more fluid than touchwiz but there is just so many stupid things with Emui, like not all media players work on the lock screen, so far I only got power amp, spotify and Google music to show up on the lock screen.
Despite of all this I still come back to the P9, it's just more fun.

On camera, the weak point of the P9 is video. Pictures are amazing. If you depend on video go for s7. If you just wanna take pictures the P9 is absolutely fine.
Also check out the Nougat beta for the P9 on youtube, from my experience so far Huawei has been very good with updates. And the Nougat rom (EMUI 5.0) will change things a lot in terms of software.
And the hardware is amazing. USB C, full metal body (Glass backs are a no go for me personally) and no camera bump. FP reader is perfect. Everything is fast and smooth, I've seen no slowdowns at all and battery is great too (2 full days minimum for me).
If you like to flash custom roms and stuff and use CM etc, one look in the dev thread will show that custom kernels/roms are just now slowly coming on. Recovery, root and xposed are all working fine though.
I went for the P9 over the S7, because it has way better price/performance ratio and for me better hardware design. It's just a much more interesting phone to me.
The P9 will give you more bang for the buck. Very fluid UI (no freezing, stuttering or random reboots). Everything just works (bluetooth, wifi - I get wifi in the house in places where I didn't get any with my LG G3 and OnePlus 2). Camera is great for still photography. Video quality is still pretty good even though it doesn't do 4K or have OIS. And the fingerprint scanner is just ridiculous... Takes just 3 or 4 taps to set up and works lightning fast every single time. Phone design is very sleek and feels great in hand (no camera hump neither!). Battery life is pretty good with about 4 to 5 hours of SOT. On slow days it can last 1.5 - 2 days.
EMUI takes some getting used to and takes some setting up to get everything working the way you want to, but that just means the initial set-up process is just a wee bit longer than on other phones.
If you don't like the look (like me), just install Nova Launcher and an icon pack of your choice. That'll give you double tap to sleep as well!
As for theming: there's quite an active theming community for EMUI on Google Plus.
With Nova launcher, icons and an EMUI theme running you can get close enough to a stock experience.
just wondering does snapchat work well on your devices, thinking of buying this phone but use snapchat a lot. on my current android phone performance of snapchat is abysmal. is it acceptable on the op3t or unusable?
thanks
Much better than what I got on the Nexus 6, which pretty much forced me to downgrade so the features don't slow down my phone. It's been really smooth for me so far.

Hi. Can you post a few photos taken with sc and with stock camera app?
Also, if you're willing to do so, can u take the pictures in both good and bad lightning conditions?
Wanna compare op3t snapchat performance with my iph6
So the non marked ones are stock camera app and the Snapchat ones are saved via Snapchat. I would take this with a pinch of salt as I'm 110% Snapchat compresses the pictures. Also there is no lo light assist via snap while the stock camera has HQ mode for low light. The last plant shot is a Selfie camera pic which BTW is really good.
Hope this helps!

snapchat will never be good on android until the actual developers work on a better code. All it does at this moment is take a screenshot of your display and thats why for us it looks so bad but I will say with owning a 3T that its the best performance of any android phone I have used the app on
I bought a 3T in the end, and there's no lag using it.. Snapchat performance is good, I think it's only been slow once or twice on me. Definitely not something to worry about .
Unfortunately Snapchat is crappy on Android in general. Laggy, poor performance and leads to battery drain sometimes.
Hi everyone
Since android's version of Android PIE, is slowling rolling out to Mate 10 Pro's, has anyone yet made or found, a review of the changes, specifically for the Mate 10 Pro?
Sure, there's a couple of reviews & Youtube videos of the Beta version and of EMUI 9, but I'm looking specifically for the official PIE update on the Mate 10 Pro.
Anyone found a review yet?
Not really
I'm using it for a week now. It looks better. Battery life was bad over the first 2 days after the update but it's better now ( slightly better than Oreo). Some stutter is happening here and there but not too much. Free ram seems to get lower ,so apparently using more ram. Camera is much better.
Can you specify in what way the camera got better ? picture quality ? video quality ? night mode ? exposure ?
I haven't gotten an update since April last year, so I got EMUI 9 and all the intermediate changes all at once. Camera is insanely better, it doesn't overexpose at all like it used to, back in EMUI 8 the camera overexposed everything all the time. I got 960fps slowmo from only having 240fps one. I got hand-held night shot that works exactly like the P20 Pro, works wonders. The interface is changed I have to get used to that, it's not bad. I can also turn off Master AI now, couldn't do that before...
Huawei has CONSIDERABLY lowered the camera quality over the updates, I'm currently on EMUI 11 and I want to get to 9.1 as fast as possible.
I tried downgrading to 9.1 via HiSuiteProxy but it doesn't work it says Failed to Install when I get to 100%
Am I doing something wrong? What should I try? Downgrading to 10.1 first ? Use dload method?
Please help me I'm going to go crazy
i thought it was me alone.. the camera quality has been horrible as the updates rolled out.. used to be a beast esp the 50x focusing and the night mode. it used to be flawless to capture stars, now it looks like the camera has astigmatism...

Hello guys, and i hope you've been well
I've had the p30 pro for over a year now and it came with android 9 emui 9.1 no issues so far except youtube crashing sometimes or instagram should i upgrade to a more recent version? Is it really better in term of battery and camera? ( that's presumably all i care about).
Thank you for your time.
it's worse in camera so i think you should keep that treasure on android 9.

Are you sure? I don't think anything changed. But I have to admit that I can't remember how it looked like 4 years ago.

A lot of things changed from emui 12
Icons, etc
i had a p30 lite with android 9 that was really fast and did beautiful photos but when I upgraded it to emui 12 camera started to do bad photos and also it was heating up all the time
I don't think I've experienced emui 9 on this phone, but the photos are impressive and battery is great on emui 12. I've changed the battery recently and it became a 8-10h sot phone from the very usable 6h before
