I bought the US version and have used it in countries outside US (India, Middle East) without problems. So I am not sure if it matters
Warranty differences. Nothing else.
What about wall chager plug? Does US version come with US type or standart EU type wall charger?
Best,
US version has US plug ( of course.....)
But who cares about that... adapters are $1....
Okay that adapter works
How about watch faces. For example should I use most common moto 360 luxury brand faces like R. Submariner, O.Semaster, T.Heuer etc.
Do these faces also compatible with Huawei watch?
If you guys who have these faces with Huawei would share some images, I will be glad.
Best,
Hello guys...
This is Huawei answer in Amazon:-
"Hello Stephen Munroe, I'd love to answer your question! Certain software updates on the U.S. and international versions of the Huawei Watch are different. For example, the Huawei Watch, featured in China, doesn't have the software update for the speaker that the U.S. Huawei Watch version has. Also, the U.S. watch comes with a 1 year U.S. manufacturers warranty while the international watch does not. (ED)"
Any experience with using the US-version in Europe?

Good question, I've just ordered the US version, I can't see why it wouldn't work here in Europe/UK though ?
I heard the US version is not IP67 certified and may not be as water resistant as the International version? Read that from a review on Amazon.
I'm using Huawei Watch US version in Asia (Pakistan) for a month now. It shouldn't be an issue because the watch doesn't have any network bands which you fear might mess up. I ordered the US version because of that speaker update which, according to Amazon Q&A, didn't land on international version. As for the IP67 certification goes, I didn't expose it to even a drop of water because I don't care if the watch is IP67 or not, speaker definitely isn't and since I'm away from US, I don't have the warranty so I can't risk it.
I was a proud owner of original Moto 360 for a year and half before this. This watch is leaps and bounds better than Moto. You're gonna love it using it and you're gonna love it when people are continuously going to compliment you because this watch is an exquisite piece of technology.

The difference in the Huawei Watch 2 international version & US is this.
Huawei did not release it's stand alone LTE version in the US, the US version lacks a sim card slot & LTE capability, it only runs on Bluetooth & WiFi & NFC.
The international version ha LTE capability, it has a sim card slot & can be used as a stand alone LTE device with it's on phone number so it doesn't need to be connected to a phone, it can run off LTE & WiFi & Bluetooth & NFC.
You're responding with comment about HW 2 to an almost 2 year old post which was about HW 1....??
So Huawei announced the Huawei Mate 20 X, but in what countries is it going to be released? They are not very clear about that. Seeing the video's it appears to be a global release because all Google apps are already installed.
If you found a webshop please let us know here
Pre-order on Amazon UK, £899.99.
Edit: Sorry, I'm a 'tard, £899.99 for the plain Mate 20 Pro.

Are you sure? Because i don't see the Mate 20 X there.
Aw **** man, I thought Mate 20 X meant this forum covered Mate 20, Mate 20 Pro. I totally missed the Mate 20 X in the launch... Sorry.

Depending on where you can buy from in the UK, you could probably buy from there. If that fails definitely contact WondaMobile, as i'm sure he can get from you, when its out.
pdaplaza.ca (a Canadian company) has the 6/128 Global variant and 8/256 China variant for sale with shipping the first week of November. Can someone confirm there will be a Global version of the 8/256 model? With the Xiaomi Mi Max 3 the 8/256 was China only, while they also offer a Global version of their 6/128 model. Does Huawei follow a similar sales strategy of reserving their high end model for the Chinese mainland market?
Tweeted Huawei UK and they have said no release in UK (as of yet!!). Prices is listed in Euros so there is a Euro / Global version being released but have no idea in what regions. I also asked this but no reply yet.
Once again the UK is getting screwed ! Off to the black market to pay inflated prices and import tax (again ...) !!
Hi guys,
Any update on availability in the UK or Europe?
I am also looking for the Mate 20 X this phone it is amazing .
my daily phone is at the moment Samsung s5 it so terrible to use this phone and UI.
Huawei is so lazy, they announce the phone in London with euro price but doesn't list the release countries. Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro pre-orders are everywhere. I also asked many Huawei countries on Twitter, but no single response.

can the china variant be used on our canadian bands for 4g lte?
can the bootloader be unlocked on the china variant?
is it true that the 8gb version will ship with a free flip case and m-pen?
So I had a response from Huawei, which said:
"Thank you for contacting Huawei Support UK.
At the moment the Mate 20X is not available in Europe, we do not have official information regarding an ETA for the release, furthermore we cannot confirm with certainty that this model will even be released for the European market.
Please return to us, in the near future for additional information on the Mate 20 X model.
Meanwhile, of course, should you have any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us."
Best regards,
Huawei Support - Customer Care UK

Im living in Europe Denmark my self.
I have the L29 636 4G version.
U can see the difference between the phones ur self.
For me the 2 most important thing with a phone is, huge display and huge battery and on the 3th place normal specs.
If u are the type having a phone 1-2 years i will go for the 4G version.
But if u have a phone more then 2 years i would take the 5G version for sure. Because the 5g net is not normal the next 2 years i think.
Good luck, its a hell of a phone... I love it big time, best one ever.
Neither, wait for note 10 or mate30 series.
Mate20x is an old device unless you can get it for a very special price.
My policy is not never buy a device after 3 months of release unless its so much cheaper or its an emergency situation.
I have been waiting to get my hands on the Mate 20X 5G model for a while. It is now becoming more widely available around the world (Kuwait, UAE, Finland, Switzerland and China and the UK by the end of July as the T-ban has been partially lifted, Lol). Here are all the key differences between the ORIGINAL version and the 5G variant and some are very disappointing. I think I will skip this version and wait for the Mate 30X or the Mate X.
In the meantime, if anyone has bought the new 5G model, you can update the thread with more information.
Model Number: EVR-N29 International Version/EVR-N00 Asia Version
THE GOOD NEWS:
Networks: 2G-4G on original vs 2G-5G SA/NSA on the 5G model
RAM: 8GB identical to the memory size of the China version with 8GB/256GB
ROM: 256GB identical to the memory size of the China version with 256GB/8GB
GooglePlayStore: Included on the original International model vs also included on the 5g model (except the Asia variant which does not include GooglePlayStore)
Charging: 40W Super Charge vs 22W Super Charge on the original.
Wireless Charging: Included (according to unboxing videos online, but not 100% confirmed) vs Not Included on any of the Original variants
Colour: Emerald Green vs 2 colours on the original (Good for some and possibly bad for some)
NOW THE BAD, THE REALLY BAD NEWS:
Battery: 4200mAh vs 5000mAh on the original
Headphone Jack: No Headphone Jack vs the Original with the Headphone Jack and 3.5mm headphones (5g model comes with Type C headphones)
Speakers: Single Stereo Speaker only (top speaker has been removed) vs Dual Stereo Speakers on the original variants
Damn so many downgrades.
Wont be surprised if the the reason is to put 5g antennas.
I wouldn't change the Mate 20 X for the 5g variant for only one reason : Stereo Speakers... Dangg, this phone is loud ! ?
Here is the official spec sheet:

Both the original and the 5g model has stereo sound but on the 5g model they have reduced the number of speakers from 2 to 1 (top speaker missing).

Rumors about Mate 30 X?
An Global 8GB/256GB was kinda nice, but damn i didn't know about the single speaker and no headphone jack. No 5G model for me than. This is indeed more an downgrade.
Please suggestion: buy that no 5g or wait for 30 X?

I'd wait for 30 X (hopefully there will be one). 5G will take at least a year or two to become universal.
High price in Germany, it will be €1000. Also ''NOW THE BAD, THE REALLY BAD NEWS''
https://www.pcgameshardware.de/Panorama-Thema-233992/News/Huawei-Mate-20-X-5G-Release-1293604/
any news if it can be rooted - flashed ? tnx
is the 5G varient going to be any faster than the EVR-AL00 model with 8/256, when it comes to daily use, or is it going to be the same speed but. just be faster when it comes to surfing the web/ downloading content and streaming? Cause if my daily useage is getting improved then I may step up but, if im not seeing an improved when it comes to using the phone other than that then ill just stick to the OG version.

Totally agree. With these spec reductions and the crazy price tag, we are better off waiting for (hopefully) a Mate 30X with Android or ArkOS or whatever it may be called(BTW, I like the new camera setup on the Mate 30 Pro that has been shown on some renders this week)
If Mate 30X is not released in time, I will just wait for Microsoft to (hopefully) release the Surface phone in January with Android compatibility and the Hybrid Windows 10 OS for mobiles. That I think would be the ultimate phone setup. This I think would be the most credible chance for Microsoft to remain relevant in the mobile space again and offer a good alternative to IOS and Android systems.

Daily use (speed etc…) should be the same as the only addition is a 5G modem (simply for accessing 5g SA/NSA bands) and the removal of some really important features such as the 3.5mm jack, reduction in battery size and the removal of the top speaker. If you can live with these then I would say then you can step up but I would say if 5g is not really important then wait until Mate 30x or another alternative comes. Don't forget IFA 2019 is just around the corner and other brands that are aware of Huawei's success with the original Mate 20x may want to tap into its success model. I must say I had my hopes high for the Mate 20X 5g but now my only option is to either go for Mate X as my first 5G phone or wait for Mate 30x which should have integrated CPU with 5G in-built unlike the 2 chips that are separately positioned on the new Mate 20X 5G. Due to the space management, Huawei appears to have made some serious compromises.
Personally, with 5g rolling out, I would want my next phone to be 5g so that I don't have to think about changing my phone for the next 2-3 years at least. Then hopefully 5g and folding phones will be more common.

The biggest problem in the end could be if this variant will result to be impossible to root or flash with lineageOS IMHO...
Is the china al00 5g or not 5g
Also: will there be soon a separate thread in the forum or will it be in common with the non 5G Mate X 20?

The Only 5G Models are:
EVR-N29 International Version 5G Comes with GooglePlayStore/Google Services Preloaded
EVR-N00 Asia Version 5G No GooglePlayStore/Google Services
The above models are only offered in 8GB/256GB RAM/ROM combinations and only offered in Emerald Green Colour and has 5G printed on the back cover.
All other models/variants are NOT 5G. For example; EVR-L29 is the 6GB/128GB for international markets, EVR-AL00 is the China Version with no GooglePlayStore and is offered in 6GB/128GB and 8GB/256GB variants.
Wondering if the us version on ebay would work in canada with Bell/Telus?
