Huawei Mate 20

Patiently still waiting for Huawei to contact me about my watch

The time is running...

It will most likely be dual afaik. Only vodacon and emptyN disable the dual sim functionality.

Hope so as I just ordered one. Need to send my emerald green back to Hong Kong for refund.... Green screen just getting worse and worse.

I see Takealot has got the black color on sale for R16 999.

Does anyone know if this is dual Sim version or not?

As i cannot trust their listing due to it stating that the processor is the Kirin 710

You should ask them, not all models are dual sim, some are single sim only and some dual sim

Confirmed as dual sim. Just got my 2nd one today. But it's an LG screen so I guess time will tell if I have to send it back.

Yup, tried them already. But that's also single sim. Have to have dual with FNB and rain sims.

The singe sim one I got has the BOE screen at least

Anyone have issues connecting with 802.1x authentication Wifi networks?
Connects fine to open and WPA2 networks, but 802.1x seems to be a hit and miss, only after 20 minutes it connects, once it disconnects it's 20 minutes before it connects again.
This happens on my home wifi and work wifi network with 802.1x authentication


Edit: Seems it's a Android Pie/Huawei issue, still no fix it seems

Yeah, the second one I just got from Takealot is an LG screen too. I just can't can't do single sim. So will need to carry on swapping them out till who knows when....

Got a call from the call center earlier asking some questions re the watch and delivery details.

I see the November Security update is rolling out for a couple of other OEMs, hope we will see it sooner rather than later on the Mate 20 Pro.

Really looking forward to the front facing 3D scanner going live.

Had it on my Mate 9 for a while already

 

[rubber_otter]

When did you pre order?

On huaweipromo.co.za on 4 November already. It is taking quite long for some reason.

 

[Zenbaas]

But you Registered on the site before 30Oct? Because if you didn't you don't qualify.
