[doki81]

anybody bought the original magsafe back case without the hinge protection?

better get fiber case with hinge protect....once u scratch a bit on your phone body..your warranty is voided!

Hi guys, are there differences in terms of features or OS, between global and CN rom specifically for HMV5?

Honor has their own AI assistant called Yoyo. This is on the China version.
Global ROM version uses Google assistant (or Gemini).

A few more pros and cons:

Global version
+ has eSIM
+ local warranty
- only one config (512GB)

China version
- no eSIM
- no local warranty
+/- more local China apps which may be bloatware for some, but I know a colleague who love those China apps
+ more config. The 1TB version has a bigger battery (6100mah I think)
+ cheaper than Global version if you buy locally in China
? Not sure, but usually China local ROM has more aggressive power management and some notifications (Microsoft Team, Whatsapp) may get delayed response.

by default, China rom don't come installed with GSM, GSM will be available once an overseas simcard inserted that allows you to self installation of GMS, Google Playstore, etc.......

Thanks for this. I'm looking if there's OS features that will only be China exclusive. E.g Yoyo assistant would be one
