has been a while since i bought a phone from MS or telco, MS phones are opened before right?
Maybe you can ask MS first before buying.

I never buy from them before, only bought from Kasia once. :o

Update on Nova launcher vs Emui stock launcher.

Emui is generally a lot smoother and responsive, no more weird experiences with apps hanging or glitching out.

Also, the tap Home button to lock screen function on Nova is buggy. After you lock, it will wake the screen straight away again and if u have face unlock it unlocks your screen straight again.

No such issue with Emui stock launcher.

Only issue is re arranging all the icons one by one. On Nova can just restore.

But restoring icons might have led to my terrible battery life

Why do u say restoring icons lead to terrible battery life?

I still prefer the physical button for fingerprint sensor rather than the in screen sensor
Not very responsive.....

The M20P is a keeper for me .....hope no bleeding
Will be selling off my P20P, Note 9 and 9+......all used as play phones (backup) only

I like the slim form factor and the green.....
HW has gone a long way and is a serious competitor to IOS

I'm using gesture double tap to lock screen and didn't have this bug you are experiencing.. I don't use Face unlock tho but screen never wake when locking. Also, there are 2 methods for locking phone on Nova, which one you chose?

yup it's pretty disappointing... such a high-spec phone but what a poor screen quality. dunno how they QC before mass production :(

may as well keep my current p20 pro. would have like the ultra-wide lens on the mate 20 pro... super versatile. but guess shouldn't jump in and risk getting a faulty set.

wonder why Huawei hasn't made official announcement yet.

Not sure what's the big deal with screen problem.. if got problem, just go change lor.. they gave you 2 years warranty so why worry. New phone sure got some bugs here and there so you can either wait until newer revision come out or just get and enjoy the phone first and replace if got problems down the road

Not naked. With the free case. 6+ if I’m gaming half of the time. If not will be much longer?

But ms stated on website it a 4gb ram instead of 6gb.

Singapore's Mate 20 series all come in 6GB RAM by default, maybe it's typo error but best to clarify with MS first if intend to buy from them.

In display is new technology so certainly be slower to the more stable regular fingerprint sensor. In the beginning when fingerprint sensor was introduced, it's also not as quick but over time, it has been improved to where we are now. I'm pretty sure in display fingerprint will be better on next generation phones
