I think Huawei stopped giving updates to SG, Other regions already got May security patches and new camera updates.

But in SG we are still stuck with April patch and old camera.

Its time on to move away from Huawei.

No Boot-loader unlock or Firmware update.... :(
My Mate 20 already update to May security patch about 2 wk ago but my Mate 20x not yet. Some of the local Mate 20x had just received the May security patch recently but still not my turn yet cos they go by batches.

I am still on April security patch too. On one hand, the recent google fiasco is making me consider dropping huawei phones in future, but on the other hand, their battery life and fast charging and specs are quite unrivalled. So shall see what other options we have 2 years down the road.

Had that this morning too, first time a phone maker actually put ads in users phones. I monitored it and realised it only disappeared when huawei informed major sites that they have removed it. Huawei is really trying hard to make my mate 20 pro my last phone with them. Sigh.

Can the mate 20 battery last for more than one day? My mum needs a new phone. She doesn't like the narrow aspect ratios available, think Mate 20 is one of the few with a wider aspect ratio. Tried to psycho her to get 20X but she said too big and heavy :p

Have used mate 20 before switching to mate 20x. Yes mate 20 is good. The only mate 20 that has FM radio. Battery is great too. But hard to get brand new.
