Low benchmarks compared to Mate 9

I was looking through the reviews and benchmarks on phonearena here and noticed the Honor 8 Pro scores quite a bit less than the Mate 9, also running the Kirin 960. Would that simply be down to the QHD screen on the 8 Pro?
I'm wondering how that would affect things like emulation with Dolphin, where single core performance is quite important. Would it not matter so much as you choose the resolution to render the game at anyway? So it wouldn't be QHD in dolphin or is it a driver setting which would need to be changed like on the Galaxy S8?

Yes, I'd put it down to QHD vs FHD.
As an aside my Honor 8 Pro has UFS 2.1 memory, while my Mate 9 has eMMC - so I'm even happier to be using the Honor as my daily driver. The Mate 9 is great in many ways, but the Honor screen is so much nicer!

I'm still weighing both of these up. I can't seem to find any Honor 8 Pros in stock, vmall has been out of stock since launch but Mate 9 is readily available.
Have you tried Dolphin Emulator on your 8 Pro? I'm not sure if the QHD screen will have any detriment! Is there an option to turn QHD to FHD in the settings like Samsung have?

The phone is not available on vMall or Amazon now, which is frustrating as people I've recommended the phone to can't buy - and sooner or later they'll buy something else instead.
I've not tried Dolphin Emulator but there is an option to drop the resolution for power saving, but unlike on the P9 where it toggled between 1080p and 720p, I've not managed to get it to actually do anything. The same for the Mate 9, P10 etc. Perhaps it only does it when running certain apps?

Thanks for your replies Jon, yeah it's a shame that it's not available now. I may end up just getting a Mate 9 because of it. I'm not overly keen on those black borders around the screen but I want a big screen/powerful CPU and I hate the S8+ aspect ratio (I'd prefer the Snapdragon anyway and that isn't available in Europe).
Maybe the QHD/FD toggle thing will happen in an update somewhere down the line. I'd only ever want QHD on if using VR, so a switch would have been handy. Hopefully you don't have to tie that in with turning the performance of the CPU down as well.

Hello, it is exclusively available from O2 Telefonica Store. And mine has emmc not ufs 2.1. Seems like a lucky box again...
https://www.o2online.de/e-shop/handys-ohne-tarif/honor/honor-8-pro-details

My black 8 pro has also the emmc

Any other testimonies on the storage type of your Honor 8 Pro?
I think Vmall specification pages indicate storage type as UFS, Anandtech also confirmed UFS 2.1 in their Preview.
Is it again a lottery between UFS/eMMC like with the P10 series?

I have bought honor 8 pro on a reseller website in France and it has eMMC memory too, i have called today vmall Europe (Huawei-Honor) customer and technical services, i reported the problem about memory type, they said they will make an investigation about it and will contact me...It is really a winning lottery and for some, a whining lottery

I don't think they will do something... And I don't find any information about the memory type on the European and Chinese vmall website.

I ended up getting a mate 9 instead. I prefer a bigger screen and you could only get the blue Honor 8 Pro from vmall, I wanted a black phone.

Good choice man. About the storage lottery, I really hate Huawei for that.

Well the RAM is waiting for commands from other components, and they will throttle before the "slow" 6Gb of emmc will, wouldn't worry about it that much.

To buy or not...

It looks like the mi 9 SE will be released global on the 28th of March. I want to "measure" how big the xda community will be for this phone, and also just curious...
If the mi 9 SE will be released globally, will you consider buying this phone (answer in poll)?

Well it's just as easy to modify as most of Xiaomi phones so I guess soon there will be here some custom rom choices. Especially if the only other smaller size competitor is Samsung 10e, for over twice the price.
I have 9se for about three weeks so far and must admit it's a great piece of hardware, but only if you like compact devices. Otherwise I'd rather choose Redmi Note 7 (limited budget) or Mi 9 or keep waiting for Poco F2.

Yes, absolutely. I'm looking forward to purchase the 128gb varient. I LOVE compact phones, especially the ones with flagship spec i.e. Sony. But I'm definitely getting the Mi 9 SE.

Actually, its form factor seem to be the best. I would consider buying the P30 or S10e, but the price is way better on the Mi 9 SE.
Just wondering if it worth waiting for the Mi A3 lite, which would be about the same smartphone except for the snapdragon (660 and not 712) but with Android One and b28....

It depends on what is important for you. I am planning to buy too, after I have seen some reviews and possibly if I see some development activity here.
The reasons I would buy this phone are: small size, amoled screen, quite decent chipset and nfc.
I would personally not buy the galaxy s10e because of the high price and the lack of developement I have seen with their previous phones.

Ho that's interesting, can you explain why? (I guess the amoled screen won't be on the Mi A3 and that's why i'll buy the 9 SE, but still I'm curious)

I just watched a couple of reviews and forum posts so mine is not a "direct" opinion, anyway
About photos, they are very good. They are not great, as well as big brother Mi 9, probably that's due to the software: AI and drivers are still not perfectly calibrated on Sony IMX586. It looks like worst than Mi 8, even if on paper Mi9/Mi9SE should have a better sensor.
About battery, it's enough! If you use dark theme, you can reach 6 hours of display on. Recently Xiaomi released DC function for Mi 9 , maybe we will see the same for Mi 9 SE because both have AMOLED display, which can benefit of this DC function.
If battery sometime isn't enough, QC @ 18W can pump in a few minutes the energy you need to reach late night.

Photos during daylight are great, just as you wish them to be. Every lens is doing it's job well - you can get a nice close up photo with zoom, wide angle lens proved to be useful as well, bokeh is nice (but it used to be so even on Mi 6). I am a little disappointed with night mode though - before I was playing with it on Mix 3 and there the results looked like magic, here are mediocre. It looks like the algorithm is only increasing the general brightness of the photo without recognizing the difference between stuff which should be visible and that is supposed to remain dark. The effect is obviously worse than on Mi 9 (basing on the reviews).
The battery is sufficient. Mi 9 SE as a smaller size phone is not bought for gaming therefore for any other activity can be used quite long. E.g. I've got over 14 hours of continuous movie play (MX Player HW+) and 25 hours when left as a clock (Big Clock app on Google Play). When you're not using the phone the battery drain is about 1% per hour with Ambient Display on.

Xiaomi is notoriously slow with updates. Like now, it's the end of March still no March patch, some people didn't even get Feb patch yet. And the biggest f*** up that Xiaomi did is after android pie update. Wifi Mac has changed, some people got their phone bricked, wifi keeps disconnecting, battery life is super poor (4-5h sot), a lot of bugs I encounter every day, still using 3.18 kernel instead of 4.9 etc. etc.

Nah, the only reason why switched to custom for a while is because the wifi problem, everyone is facing this issue. It's disconnects won't won't connect back, and 5ghz wifi speed is very poor.

I want the mi 9 se as a replacement device. I finally want a premium (cut down) flagship phone, and hopefully will last for about 4 years or more.

Looks like I was following a false track. The release from 28th only contained mi 9 and redmi note 7.
There have been a few others sources hinting towards a global launch. For now we just have to wait.

It is also listed on geekbuying for buying, not only for preorder.
6/64 edition for about 330€ after using coupons seems to be quite a good deal.

Pros:
- 6" screen is still enough.
- Amoled screen and non-intrusive notch.
- Size. The device itself is tiny and lightweight.
- Hardware is below flagship, but much better than mid-range.
- Treble enabled, kernel source already released.
Cons:
- MIUI environment is not so friendly.
- dev scene (I hope I am wrong).
- OEM updates.

Miui and oem updates aren't the issue for me.

Ok, so to summerize:
- Small from factor
- Amoled screen
- Indisplay fingerprint
- 4G b20 and b28
- Widevine L1
- 6Gb RAM
A part for the CPU power, it is even more interesting for me than s10e, and for half the price.
So I definetly swap my OnePlus 6 for this device. The last question is where should we buy it to be sure we have the global version?
I saw that honorbuy.com send the right one with even european charger, but a bit expansive...
Fantacy seller on aliexpress? Anyone ever tried?
Thanks.

I would reccomend honorbuy because of european stock and no VAT on delivery (if you are based in Europe).
Devices are shipped with european socket charger.
If you buy on Aliexpress you must check any custom duty that would be added to the shipment in your country.

Question S21U exynos to 9 Pro?

Hello
I have a S21U exynos for nearly a year and it's beginning to boring me, I don't dare to root it because of knox
Also I don't like that sometimes I have to double swipe because the screen needs a longer swipe area than OP phone or the s21u screen are just not as responsive. Same goes for the double tap to open anything because Samsung UI doesn't accept to open an app or menu/settings if any even very slight scrolling is still on screen.
Here's why I am tempted by the 9 Pro:
-Snapdragon vs exynos
-The battery is finally nearly the same thanks to A12, no ?
-ROOT freedom, when I am getting bired of the OS I can simple change the custom rom wmabd all that without being afraid of knox
-OP 10 pro unveiled today looks nothing better than 9 Pro besides the cpu/gpu, the mi 12 pro tele lens is catastrophic given the actual reviews, the s22u will be a copy/paste of the s21u but with an spen... Well 2022 is not a wow year
What I am afraid to miss the most though is the 10x telescopic zoom, but over 11 months I only used like 10 times mostly to impress my gf with moon shots lol
So what do you think? Am I crazy?
Anyone had an s21u and got the 9 Pro?

I had the 9 Pro and got the S21U in august
Battery is better BY FAR, my Op9 was laggy and buggy and i couldnt figure out why. OxygenOS is basically dead and that was always the main reason to buy the OP

Exynos. Haven't had A12, but as I said, without OxygenOS OnePlus is dead. ColorOS (what A12 basically is on OP9) is trash

I have the 9 Pro for 5-6 month now. Switched from Pixel 4Xl to iPhone 11 Pro Max to Note 20 Ultra cheated with Xperie 1ii and back to iPhone 12 Pro Max, then i bought the 9 Pro. So i switched a lot last year. I'm not a fanboy of any brand.
My ranking from best to worse -> 9Pro, 11 Pro Max, Xperia 1ii, Pixel 4XL, 12 Pro Max, Note 20 Ultra (exynos).
9 Pro it's not laggy at all by the way. It's the most fluid/smooth phone i've used. Screen is fantastic and by far the best i've used.
Performance is superb. Camera (got major updat) is brilliant. Battery (A11) is great.
Fast Charging 30 Min ...
All the crying about Oxygen vs Color OS... Don't know, kind of childish. With OxygenOS 12 (Color OS with Oxy Skin) you won't feel a difference. It does not matter. It's still a very clean near stock experience.
If you wabt to switch, just try it, i can highly recommend the 9 Pro

Do you think the passage from 6.8" to 6.7" will be obvious or it's pretty much the same size?

Nah TINY bit smaller, 0,1" is nothing... you know what they say about size

Well, i say is not really ultra. Because is Exynos...
My 9 pro works very well. ColorOs 12 stable C.39 is very good. Except some notification i don't have problems.
Oxygen is full of Google BS. That it makes it Bad.
I use bluetooth = smart watch & music 8 h/day at work. For me. battery is very good.
I never have lag or any other screen problems.
xPan mode color/black & white is gorgeous for photos.
You don't feel that 0,1" difference. 100%.
But why don't you wait a little & buy 10 pro?

10 pro is deceiving, at least for me, same telephoto camera while I hoped for a 5x or 10x, super wide camera is worse than 9 pro, same exact screen in terms of size and brightness...
And the price of new OP flagships here in my country is always overpriced, the 9 Pro 12/256 started at 1150$ now it's at 770$!!
I can sell my 10 months old s21u for 770$ today and pay 0$ for a brand new 9 Pro. When the 10 Pro will be out, the s22u would have been out for 2 months so I couldn't sell the s21u more than 600$
As for the 9 Pro I guess it won't drop too much anymore here, perhaps max 50$

That's the question.. is the 10 pro worth it. Same camera mainsensor, worse ultrawide sensor 1/2.56 (guess it was) on the 10 Pro and 1/1.5x on 9 Pro is a huge size difference. Only thing will be (cam) software.
And better CPU/GPU chip.
If you get the 9Pro with a discount...

I hear you as I feel the same about my S21+ exynos except that I plan to switch to Xiaomi 12 because Oneplus is faaar away from the spirit which made its success years ago. It was nearly half the price of the best flagship and with better performance, development was very active with high interactivity with the growing users community, big big choice of custom roms and kernels, ...etc
Lately Oneplus seemed lagging behind in all these aspects and becoming exactly what they were laughing at (they said Never Settle ) and now they are getting Oppofied, uh no thank you.
So what's left for me to get away from samsung and their latest try to punish me for rooting the phone I bought with my money by disabling shealth, blocking connection with my gw4, ...etc plus some other annoyances which persist since day 1? Xiaomi 12 seems to me the best option. I made my mind and I just wait for it to go global in the coming weeks.

Question Does the Google Pixel 6 Pro support super slow-mo recording (960 fps) like the Samsungs?

Hey everyone,
There is currently a good deal on the Google 6 Pro if I trade in my Note 20. But among other concerns I was wondering if there is a Super Slo-Mo mode on the Google Pixel 6 Pro.
Any other thoughts on the phone would be welcome to. Is it worth the change from my Note 20?
Thanks!

I did a quick test of the slow-motion feature at its slowest setting, 1/8x, and it looks like it only goes up to 240FPS.

Thank you! That's what gsmarena specs say but I figured I'd ask. how has the phone been for you so far?

It is crackers that it doesn't do 480fps or slower even the OP 7t could manage 960fps (albeit very, very briefly)

nah, iphone is never meant to take great shots...it's like buying branded bags.
remember 20/80 rule, 80% of the users are retarded.

Currently, I am in possession of the Mi 11 Ultra and I'm having trouble deciding between the S23 Ultra and the Mi 13 Pro as a replacement. In India, the S23 Ultra costs 1.25 lakhs, while the Mi 13 Pro costs 0.8 lakhs. Is it worthwhile to replace my 6-month-old Mi 11 Ultra with the Mi 13 Pro? Have the camera quality and other features improved significantly? I would appreciate some guidance on this matter.

The Mi 11 ultra is an excellent device, the camera is on par with the s23 ultra.
For the 13 pro a little expensive compared to these characteristics.

if your 11 ultra is healthy then no point to upgrade. get the modded google cam with XML loaded and enable HDRnet shooting.
OR get the modified stock xiaomi cam with all the tweaks + leica filter.
i have 11 ultra too

Thanks a lot. Can u share the working modded Google cam and modified stock Xiaomi cam links as discussed above, please. I think that presently there is no working version of stock xiaomi cam + Leica for mi 11 ultra.. My ultra has MIUI Global 13.0.5. Stable (SKAINXM) firmware presently (INDIA).

What if I tell you IP shoots only in 4:3 ratio. 16:9 option is fake, just cropped 4:3 picture. I made that mistake because of dxomark ranking (6-th in global ranking). Great mistake...and after one week struggling to cope with IP I surrender and went to Xiaomi 13 pro. No place to compare both phones, IP is decade behind.
