  • For a year I used a smartphone with no support for Google Mobile Services. This is everything you need to know about using a Huawei or any smartphone that does not have Google Mobile Services.

    My mate 20 pro is on its last leg and I'm looking for a new phone, but nothing suits me like huawei phones. Sad to see them being left in the dust only because they were selling better than Apple and Samsung.

    This is the video I have been looking for as I had the same issue with banking apps. Huawei phones have always been innovative. As soon as I can safely use my banking app on a Huawei phone I'll switch back. Thank you for the informative video.

    Google is the best for obvious reasons. But that is the problem. We are giving too much power to one company. Especially when that company knows every conceivable detail about our lives.

      That's ok for me, they can use my internet browsing behavior, even my mic if they'd like to - make their products better as long as I'm not aware of it and no one I know has access to that data (which is what every search engine does anyway)

      ​ @sarahojejenu3154 On any given day, it's fine like you said. The problem is more fundamental. With so many users looking to Google for information, the ability to alter what pops up on the first few pages of a Google is a profound and enormous power to wield. The kind of power that can sway elections. Or withhold scandalous information that could benefit the public. They can even manipulate your emotions and how you think (though all media is rapidly employing and refining these techniques daily). The whole country is shifting toward consolidation of power and monopoly companies that have the power to undermine our democracy.

    This, is huawei still good without gms it depends from country to country like here in Croatia all banking apps are here for google apps I use gms and for maps ect I use huawei versions like petal maps which I find better. But in your case where some banking apps are not officialy availabe in appgallery I would not recoemnd huawei phone in that case. Also I didn't find an app on app gallery that tells me that it is not functiing weithou t gms

      @techzimtv i mean for you to prefer something it has to offer some advantage over the others and rn Huawei doesnt seem to have any anymore. I was really hurt by the sanctions imposed on them because they really did offer a competitive alternative to Apple and Samsung. Just not anymore.
