    New battery charge percentage, what should it be?

    Thanks for the replies guys. Battery has performed well so far, around 40% left at end of day. Although there have been some inconsistencies such as when leaving it overnight then checking the percentage in the morning it will be the same as it was before I went to bed then it will suddenly drop...

    Mate 10 Pro - screen brightness changes when opening some apps

    I contacted huawei and they advised its an issue with emui 5.1 and 8. They're working on a fix and likely to be released in 8.1, although that's a few months away still. Interesting that you don't notice it on Google Maps or Outlook. It was pretty noticeable on my phone. Have you seen it in any...

    Mate 10 Pro - screen brightness changes when opening some apps

    Hi, I've just brought a Mate 10 Pro and noticed when opening apps like Google Maps, Outlook and Chrome, the screen brightness decreases slightly, not much but it's noticeable. It's not in all apps, just some. I don't have auto brightness on so it's a little annoying. Had anyone else...

    Encrypting and fully wiping data from Mate 9

    I don't know, I did some research today and the information is conflicting. I've asked Huawei for clarification, waiting to hear back from them. It would seem very odd if there was no encryption, especially for a high end phone like the Mate 9 and the fact Google have made it a requirement to...

    If this is the case then that's fine but there seems to be no confirmation of this anywhere

    Encrypting and fully wiping data from Mate 9

    This is what I heard too, but all or most other android phones also have the option to manually encrypt so I'm very surprised and confused as to why Huawei have taken this option away.

    Encrypting and fully wiping data from Mate 9

    Thanks. This is a big concern as I understand from Marshmallow onwards the higher end android smartphones are required to be encrypted.

    Encrypting and fully wiping data from Mate 9

    That's what I understand as well, but when I go to Memory and Storage, and change the default from internal to SD card storage, a pop up message displays saying my phone has been encrypted and to make sure the external storage is as well. But then there appears to be conflicting comments saying...

    Encrypting and fully wiping data from Mate 9

    Hi, I'm returning my Mate 9 and looking to wipe the data from it. I've read in numerous articles that to fully wipe an android phone I should encrypt my phone then factory reset it. However, I can't find the encrypt option on the Mate 9. So I have two questions... 1. Is the Mate 9 encrypted by...

    Touch screen sensitivity issue

    Hi guys, apologies if this has already been discussed elsewhere. I've been using the Mate 9 for a couple of days now and I love the phone. But I've noticed the touch screen sensitivity can sometimes be unresponsive. There has been a number of times where I've been on a browser or app and had to...
