People probably don't realize that Huawei is one of the most important tech companies in the world. Every time they launch a flagship product they usually hit top of the rankings in every category (cameras, quality, innovation, etc.). I'm an absolute fan of the brand and its products. Even with the Google ban they continue to stun everyone with their products. An amazing company.
And I bet in a few years, they'll be one of the top makers. As usual, Huawai will replace Western tech and will claim the entire market for the developing world, with that, you won't need the US or EU market.@@davidandrei1601 The days are numbered for the arrogant US bans.
I wonder what would have happened had Huawei not had their issues/ban with the US. They were producing some fantastic devices and were heading for a domination of the market and Samsung would have definitely suffered massively had Huawei been still around in Europe and the US.
the problem is people in china can access the latest tech from huawei but not for non chinese, in fact there are a lot of cool tech gadgets with high specs are only available in china, even american company like tesla and apple made some special features that only for chinese market
@jacksheldon6919 spying on people and selling data, but it's not 100% confirmed and ppl believe that its a scheme from companies like apple to stop them from overtaking their sales
Yes it is actually i compared them both at the phone store, the split screen is waaaay better on the huawei, its less visible, faster and much better overall. But i dont get this ban thing, i mean its still running android and theres the google play store?
@@janawehbe4149If you're referring to OS, Huawei has its own operating system called HarmonyOS. As for google play store, you can't use it, not actually, unless you've done some of the workarounds found in the internet.
Huawei has far exceeded Samsung in terms of quality. If only it weren’t for the Google ban, I think they would’ve taken a good chunk of Samsung’s smartphone share.
I've got the Mate XS when it first come out and absolutely love it! After the years it's still running flawlessly. I'm just waiting for either Photon or Graphene chips to become available in Mobiles. That's when you'll see a quantum leap in performance and a mobile being worthy of an upgrade
No 5G, last years Snapdragon chipset. No Play Store. No Leica lenses either. No mention of GBox where you can run the majority of Google PlayStore apps? How good are those cameras? This or the Honor V2 (if it ever comes over to the UK) Still an amazing looking device and unlike Honor, will be built to a far higher standard.
Well I think I've found my new notification tone at the 1:09 mark. The price is bananas though, don't think I'll be grabbing one of these handsome folding buggers anytime soon.
It's just that the ban is really devastating.. I would love to use one but the hassle of not having all the apps or doing extra to get them installed is such a deal breaker.
If America hadn’t imposed the Google ban, Huawei would have overtaken Samsung and Apple at the top, middle and bottom end of the market to be the number one phone manufacturer. I’d still be buying huawei flagship phones if it wasn’t for the ban. Best phones I ever had.
Such a shame Huawei still got that ban from Google..Make amazing phones ..Best of getting the Honor Magic vs ..700 quid cheaper looks like a decent fold ..
Great review on on a 'niche' device due to lack of Google services and play store out of the box. It's amazing you state this more than once, and I see a comment asking if there is 'play'! That person either didn't watch your video properly or has a short attention span. I personally would not buy this or any other foldable phone. I just got my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra for close to half the Huawei £2000 price.
Oh dear, what strange games .... Butt, that must be the best looking foldables of the year, so is that Huawei's angle " reel people in with the best looking devices" ? I have enjoyed this phone's looks more than its actual capabilities ,👍👍👍👍
Safe . Super safe. More than 3 billion users worldwide . More than 1 billion users in china use mobile banking/ digital wallet/ mobile payments everyday. For everything you can think of. Especially wechat in china. Super powerful and efficient app. It is tooo difficult to describe. Makes life 10x easier. You can search for a place you want to go, calls you a uber, book train , plane, ferry, hotel everything in 5 min. Renew your license, Healthcare, pay all you bills. Rent buy sell house car bikes in 10 min. Super mall (any brand /store/ restaurant you can think of - LV , nike , zara, apple , Walmart, costco, mcdonald , kfc , Samsung , bmw , tesla , home depot...). Find and book appointments with lawyers , accountant, doctors ,mechanics , tutor, hair salon , spa for your dog.
A long time ago, phones were just phones, costing less than 100 bucks... Now here we are, with this pocket-size computer (costing as much as a desktop PC). It looks like the call/texting features have turned into gadgets, while the main features are now gaming, movies and apps. But I guess that this can exist because people are asking and willing to pay for that. Very interesting.
I actually loved the gaming section, it reminded me of early android store days... anything goes! for better and worse. Why not play on the giant interior display though?
I want one so badly, but ugh not much works like it could or should here in the states. Really on the fence between this, the vivo x fold 2, or the honor magic vs
Im glad you pointed it out...Since everyone has given the pixel fold heck for its price, this phone has no 5g service from what i have looked up, no stylus support, and not dustproof certified, and snapdragon 8 gen 1+, not the latest and greatest, and well over $2k...lets see what the reviewers say about this one, but it is a beautiful phone, i wish it wasn't banned from 5g support amongst other things.
This device is far ahead of the pixel hardware wise, there is no comparison. 5g is irrelevant and no foldable is dust resistant. It would be nice to meet stylus support no doub, although it would require a special case which would make it too chunky. Btw , I'm typing this on a mate x3
I'm typing this on an identical mate x3 and wow, it's an amazing phone. Having built in Google apps would be nice but with gbox you can get TH-cam and all other Google apps that I have tried. The main downside is that you can't spit these apps in halfmbit you can run it in a desirable box. Overall awesome device.
@@nickthaskater well for me I find Huawei software better then samsung software, some people just gate Huawei for no reason even the company is under many bans it's managed to produce better hardware then samsung.some companies are just overrated and samsung one of them
Flagship = Processor + Camera Gaming = Processor + Battery Fold = "I'm (expensive) in danger." -Ralph Ps. Gaming phones will have better cameras before flagships have bigger batteries. They will say it's for safety reasons, but they want people replace their phone as soon as posible.
Apple and Samsung are complacent because of the ban. Ban or no ban, Huawei far exceeds anything apple and samsung (or anyone else) has to offer with all billions they spend on R&D. And from experience, huawei has one of the best after sales support out there.
No you don't need to have all your apps on screen in iPhone. You have an app drawer for like 2 years now. I can't stand how it was before. But now you can have all them in an app drawer. I like clean "Desktop" myself. Has all those apps cluttered everywhere. Waiting on my pixel fold as the mates are not available in the U.S. I don't think. Looks amazeballs.
ffs the price for that phone is beyond crazy. Phones of that price are crazy. I use to like Huawei back in the day. But for this, its taking the p..s in IMHO

They would be the most powerful smartphone company in the world if it wasn't for the ban 💯
Ngl that was huawei in 2019. Since the huawei ban they had trash phones

@@davidandrei1601Trashed by the "we lie, we cheat, we steal" US government, yes. Trash phones ? No.

I wonder what would have happened had Huawei not had their issues/ban with the US. They were producing some fantastic devices and were heading for a domination of the market and Samsung would have definitely suffered massively had Huawei been still around in Europe and the US.
It's because they're a threat to Apple, and they don't want to kill Apple.
But they still haven't banned Honor, which is weird.
Goodbye Apple then
@@Annihilus2000 Not so sure about that just yet.
the problem is people in china can access the latest tech from huawei but not for non chinese, in fact there are a lot of cool tech gadgets with high specs are only available in china, even american company like tesla and apple made some special features that only for chinese market
They would've overtaken Samsung as leader of smartphone shipments worldwide.
This is the foldable king, period.
I wish the ban is lifted. Huawei actually makes great phones.
And great smart watches etc. It's stupid as Xiaomi or Honor are as influenced by the CCP as Huawei.
It’s true. They make great stuff, period.
True. Especially the design.
Why are they banned
@jacksheldon6919 spying on people and selling data, but it's not 100% confirmed and ppl believe that its a scheme from companies like apple to stop them from overtaking their sales
Man, if am being honest, this phone is better than the Z Fold 4 in terms of the cover display, hinge and thicknesses 🎉
Yes it is actually i compared them both at the phone store, the split screen is waaaay better on the huawei, its less visible, faster and much better overall. But i dont get this ban thing, i mean its still running android and theres the google play store?
I've had both phones and the Fold 4 was much better for everyday use. In saying that I know have the fold 5 and nothing beats it for foldables
@@janawehbe4149If you're referring to OS, Huawei has its own operating system called HarmonyOS. As for google play store, you can't use it, not actually, unless you've done some of the workarounds found in the internet.
@@williamg7138how is it better for everyday use??
Huawei actually made the best looking foldable in the xs2. That design was so innovative
Huawei has far exceeded Samsung in terms of quality. If only it weren’t for the Google ban, I think they would’ve taken a good chunk of Samsung’s smartphone share.
i wish the ban was lifted 😢
Yup i could have overthrown apple too tbh, one year before ban it outsold both apple n Samsung
@xain4822 true. The 3 of them were on top. It's the ban that made them fall sooooo bad.
Their software is still poor by comparison
@@nickthaskater yeah, i dont think they try hard to develop their software since they are not at the top tier of mobile phones anymore.

There is a play store ive seen it what are you talking about?
No matter the stupid bans huawei will stay forever, and will support its products always, go on Huawei electronics go global
Dude that's one hell of a device. Traded in my Galaxy S24 ultra for a brand new one... I'm loving it to bits!
Well I think I've found my new notification tone at the 1:09 mark.
The price is bananas though, don't think I'll be grabbing one of these handsome folding buggers anytime soon.
Such great hardware from Huawei as ALWAYS, big love, kindest regards, Richard U.K
Some of the best hardware still. Big love, kindest regards, Richard U.K

You mean if Trump had not placed a ban of the phone..
You can get the app drawer back from settings, it has to be turned on in home screen style
GOD!!!
You gotto love those wallpapers

Best phone hardware in the game 💯
A very good Wednesday afternoon to you sir from Wellington Somerset
I love your wallpapers man
Huawei is the GOAT.
Can you get this on contract in the uk?

You got a point, we shouldn't even be calling them phones anymore.
I actually loved the gaming section, it reminded me of early android store days... anything goes! for better and worse. Why not play on the giant interior display though?
If Huawei makes global release with google services, it will definitely beat samsung..
I want one so badly, but ugh not much works like it could or should here in the states. Really on the fence between this, the vivo x fold 2, or the honor magic vs
Which one better this or z fold 5?
@Tech Spurt you use alot of Northern English/Scottish words . You got an awesome voice and chat/vids !! I only watch you know for tech. love ya
I think most Huawei fones have App drawer. U just have to dig into settings to unravel the app drawer goodness
Can not wait until honor V2 come to the uk
I’ve noticed that major tech TH-camrs but this guy have not dared review Huawei products since the ban
love your vids
thanks for the likes
I never comment but I miss Huawei. My mate20 Pro phone finally dropped dead after 4.5yrs 😢
This is a very good phone .
Wimbledon, is it? I always had you for a darts or cheese rolling kind of a bloke. What's next? Ascot?
Hei Chris, why did you stopped using Stathamometer for toughness?
I'm a huge fan of the mate x series
Huawei P Series = Game changer.

And so began ... The Chip Wars!
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 the Huawei Mate X3 Killer
love Huawei products
watching using my huawei nova ❤❤❤
Could you suggest some budget-friendly earbuds for 2023 like you did in 3 years ago, please 😍
Worth every penny 😊
Did you do an unboxing of the new Moto Razr please?
U did a disservice on the game test part,they are ways to install games, as u said apk pure is one of them
The best phones ever..
Oppo oneplus has the best ui ux implementation of the fold
I wonder if video recording better than p60 pro or just the same quality?
Im glad you pointed it out...Since everyone has given the pixel fold heck for its price, this phone has no 5g service from what i have looked up, no stylus support, and not dustproof certified, and snapdragon 8 gen 1+, not the latest and greatest, and well over $2k...lets see what the reviewers say about this one, but it is a beautiful phone, i wish it wasn't banned from 5g support amongst other things.

@@Dare2Blink I do wish being in the US that it was somewhat easier to get these devices here locally and get support for them also here.
Getting sloshed at Wimbledon must be expensive!
Where do you get these? Are they just in-store in Europe. I mostly ask cause im not sure how to get a nice foldable into the us not samsungs
on my mate xs you can side load nova lu and it works
I must have that device and a cradle for my Lambo.
I wanted to know if the Mate x3 is waterproof, please answer me
This is the best form factor. What a shame that Samsung no longer have to compete with this 😢
What is the watch you use?
I just bought the fold 4. Is it still worth to switch to this mate x3?
Yes it is, the crease is much less visible and is way faster, the cam is much better
But, I need to use the Google store to install bank app and so forth. Would it be a problem?
maan, i love your wallpaper can i get it?
Best foldable phone in the market now
Unless you care about software. Multitasking is poor compared to Samsung. Not to mention last gen SOC.

Does it have play Services?
is this capable of running microG?

just order online and use an alternative shipping service in case you need to. That's easy.

I watched this but heard nothing, I was still stunned when you mentioned 2k at the start.....We are talking about a telephone right.
It’s hard screen protection in it ?!
How would you compare it to a Pixel Fold?
i think oppenheimer can be watched in this device as christoper nolan prescribed rtio 1.431:1 cinematic aspect ratio
Judging by his anime wallpapers i can safely assume my dude watches Hanime
I wish they would include band 28 so it works in Australia!
We are such a small market, most don't see us as mattering.
8:56 I watched ads of that game on shorts. It's absolutely cursed.
Also, no Genshin?! I wanted to see how it worked and looked on the big screen.
Huawei is so underrated, but it doesn't have google Play 😔
Day 13 of asking you to plz review the VIVO Y16 budget phone
Not important but on iPhones you are able to remove the icons from the desktops unlike what you said.
Anyone used it in the US on Att??
This phone is like 3 grand
Apple and Samsung are complacent because of the ban.
Ban or no ban, Huawei far exceeds anything apple and samsung (or anyone else) has to offer with all billions they spend on R&D. And from experience, huawei has one of the best after sales support out there.

About time
I wish they would have Google store back
I use a case because I can't afford a new phone once every few weeks. My phone absolutely can't have any scratches.
Love it but £2K? don't think so.
Link buy ?
No google? If they'd have made it compatible I might consider it.
they were banned by the US hence they cannot use google services anymore. Hopefully they get a ban lift
you can't download google apks on it?
Can both camera be used at the same time ? Like in the oppo reno 5 .?? It's good option for vlogging. Could please anyone confirm
The only reason I don't buy Huawei phones is because of play store
great for work
