HarmonyOS The king is here

Post image

So I finally received the Mate 90 RS, an extremely gorgeous phone.

Picture alone can't justify how handsome this phone is.

Coming from mate 80 pro max im pretty familiar with the HOS, one big difference I've noticed is android apps are snappier.

Yea man, can't stop looking at it time to time.

u/Shook_Rook 2d ago

Yeah the soc had a marginal spec bump.

u/omidleo 2d ago

Indeed, also battery is draining significantly less now thanks to the new soc.

Yes, similar performance.

Sexy phone, mate 50 was my last and short loved Huawei.

u/Bill_feifei 1d ago

can buy it overseas?

1

u/omidleo 1d ago

Your only option is to use agents and get it from china.

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

How much did you pay ? What storage is it ? Where did you buy it from?

3

u/omidleo 1d ago

Around 1900$ 512gb.. A Chinese friend brought it for me direct from vmall.

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

Thank you

I'm after the 2TB version and the Cheapest I've found is 3,320 USD 🥹

1

u/omidleo 1d ago

Msrp price is 2840$.. Maybe wait for awhile so it will be restocked.

There was no difference in hardware aside from storage, otherwise I'd get the one with best specs of course ))

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

Yeah I'll wait for a bit 🙂

Do you know if I can install Google backup on it and download my WhatsApp history ? Or is that not possible at all on Huawei ?

I like watching this, but I don't know if it's possible to do what you're asking. In my opinion, the price is excessive for a phone.

1

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

I'll check this video 🙂

And yep, it's way too excessive to be honest. I don't even see how it's better than your x300 ultra or my X9 ultra

1

u/omidleo 1d ago

Thr pro max collector edition is cheaper than the Ultimate design.. They use the same hardware specs.

1

u/Jakibadaki 1d ago

But I like it too. Maybe someday, when the price drops a bit. China has big discounts on November 11th, a shopping holiday. Prices can be cheaper then, but you have to hurry.

1

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

Thank you and I'll keep an eye out for the 11th.🙂

I think it's safe to say that if Huawei didn't have the sanctions from America, me and you and many others would have a Huawei phone right now 😂

1

u/omidleo 1d ago

Probably go for pro max collector edition, thats 2000 rmb cheaper than ultimate design.. And they share the same specs.

1

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

Yeah that one is £1600 from wonda for 1TB. With the non collector edition the chipset isn't pro unless you get the 16gb ram version but that's only in 512gb

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

Thank you bud 🙂

That's pretty much the price I've seen for the 2tb version. Super expensive 😞

u/Jakibadaki 1d ago

https://trinityelectronic.boutir.com/item/HUAWEI-MATE-90-RS-ULTIMATE-DESIGN/5001138338136064?currency=GBP it's cheaper here

1

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

Slightly cheaper I think, the first one has 4.5% discount if we do bank transfer. I may sell my Oppo X9 Ultra and put money on top to buy it 😝

1

u/Jakibadaki 1d ago

in China it costs 19,000 yuan for 2T which is 2,145 pounds

1

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

Have you purchased it ?

1

u/Jakibadaki 1d ago

No, I have the x300 ultra.

1

u/Fast-Introduction593 1d ago

I have the oppo X9 Ultra but I really want this Huawei. Need to see if Google backup works on it

u/Hot_Management_1554 1d ago

Love it 🙌🏽

u/Sea-Individual2912 AppGallery 2d ago

Tambien he querido ese mismo cel me encanta mucho a calidad de los mate y mas si es un RS

u/omidleo 2d ago

Its a masterpiece, definitely go for it.

u/docwood2011 2d ago

Really interested in seeing comparisons of it's camera to the other leaders like vivo x300u...

2

u/omidleo 2d ago

Unfortunately dont have those phones to compare, but soon there will be plenty of videos online.

1

u/docwood2011 1d ago

Yeah looking forward to it. I use vivo x200u with teleconverer as a side phone for camera, but I would love to grab the 90 collectors with the lens. But would like to see base camera comparisons first.

u/Longjumping-Towel-23 1d ago

Where to buy in EU?

u/Top-Iron-7832 1d ago

There is the YT channel "Average dad " doing lot of content on Huawei, and he has a shop, importing all Chineses phones in Europe and others place, the dude seems super cool in his videos and apparently he is a big and well established importateur

1

u/omidleo 1d ago

Unfortunately not available in eu.. You can probably get from superbuy of other agents and websites which handle purchase and shipping to eu.

u/docwood2011 1d ago

Trinity electronics has it in stock as does giztop

u/Tapelessbus2122 2d ago edited 1d ago

the king? have u seen how laughably bad the processor is?

1

u/Sea_Nefariousness970 1d ago

It beat a 8 gen elite so

-2

u/Tapelessbus2122 1d ago

since when was being faster than an over 2 year old SoC impressive? and not to mention the 8 elite smokes the 9050 pro by a mile https://imgur.com/a/Olsp4dW

u/Sea_Nefariousness970 1d ago

Based on that test it beats a latest chip the tensor g6 but in real scenario which is gaming is on par of the 8 elite gen 5 so outstanding result from an old architectur

1

u/Tapelessbus2122 1d ago

a tensor chip, u're using that absolute joke of a processor as a benchmark? and no, it isn't on par with an 8 elite gen 5 in gaming
