EMUI vs Stock Android vs MIUI - Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion

After trying some custom roms I came to the point that emui is better in ram management,battery efficiency, features.Im getting 2.2gb of free ram when not using any app,in redmi note 4 ram usage is so high that 1.8gb only remains available in 4gb variant and in stock android rom like lineage os im getting 1.6 gb free only therefore no point of using custom rom in my honor 6x, battery drain is also high in custom roms

Well, yes at this point the stock software, that's actually been created by paid developers who are working for a multimillion-company is better than the custom ROMs that the talented developers of this community are building. Have a bit more patience and try to encourage them. Stock Android is less bloated and often way smoother and efficient once it is in a non-alpha state of development:good:

Xiaomi flagship vs Honor flagship.
Dear Xda guys.
Of all phones i have used(xperia ion,honor 6,moto x,Oneplus3 and now LG G6), i still feel the os Emui is way more polished than others and also snappy.
Now for this post is i am going to sell G6 (just months old but not satisfied) and going to take either Honor flagship phone or Mi flagship phone that is Honor 10 vs Mi7.
I know it's lot earlier to guess and decide but please share your views about premium in hand feel experience, the display quality, the OS smoothness and stability, The Audio quality. Camera i don't use much.
Honor 9 vs Mi 6 will do. Not much comparison out there in web

But there is no much difference in EMUI 8 in terms of UI part. Feature wise, there could be few addition but UI wise, it will look almost the same as that of EMUI 5.

MIUI rocks EMUI sucks
It's simple, there is no better Rom than MIUI. From battery, less bloatware, speed and features perspective! It has also better and larger community base in comparison to any other UI. Huawei is only trying to make its bad clone (even name sounds similar). I had Samsung, Huawei, Asus and Xiaomi in my hands and MIUI is far best from them. Of course if you own Honor you will always say it's best (even though you know it's not).

Emui provide fingerprint gestures support,f2fs file system,project treble, WiFi bridge,fast fingerprint,uses less ram,huawei makes its own processor so they are more optimized, and I like pure android over miui, and using a lineage os based rom now,miui is too heavy it consume more than half ram,

Well technically speaking, HONOR is Huawei's Sub-Brand aimed at millennials. It's quite a large spectrum of devices though even as its own brand.
It uses EMUI, it has its own dedicated processor, its also going to be more Different with EMUI 8. it's pretty good. MIUI is too cartoony and... Simple?

Anyone as came from the Oneplus 5 to Honor 8 Pro?

Anyone as come from the Oneplus 5 to Honor 8 Pro?
After having returned my OP5 i'm seriously considering H8Pro
Is it a good alternative performance wise? Better? Worst?
As an Amoled lover ... will I be disappointed with the LCD H9Pro screen as to it's deep blacks and vibrant colors?
Will the 2K display compensate for not being Amoled like the one in OP5?
Thanks :good:

I've used both the devices. I'm using the Honor 8 pro at this moment. Both the phones are very snappy but 1+5 surely has an edge plus Indian variant of Honor 8 pro gets warm at the back side with light usage too which is no the case with OnePlus 5 with the same exact usage! Display? I'll prefer the one on Honor 8 pro for the 2k res & it's very good looking too (it's very marginal difference, nothing noticeable)

My opinon- Reviewers received the Global variant (maybe, just maybe) which had UFS! But yes that's not fair as I see many people asking about the same and they are also worried about the heating issue (not uncomfortable though) as they bought the device by watching those "early reviews"

All the reviewers have ufs variant and that's why they are getting better performance on their units. All others have emmc and thus, degraded performance.

Had the Honor 8Pro before the OP5 and OP5 is way better. '(Germany - Got the Honor from Netherlands)
Storage was EMMC - Which really enerved me + at that point in time (1 month after release) no root in sight little XDA coverage etc-
Sent it back within the 14 day period.
Both are nice phones but the op5 is IMHO better.
Joerg
If it would be about the phone only, I'd go with Honor 8 pro but, given the fact I value the development strength when ever I get the chance to get a phone, I'll go with OP5 (if I can buy it :silly: )

Is Honor 8 Pro a good upgrade from one plus 3?

Hello Guys,
I have a one plus 3 now and a iPhone 7 Plus 128gb. I was thinking on moving from one plus 3 ( I Never had any issues with it ).
One plus 3 is Running on AquariOS with ElementalX Kernel on 7.1.2.. The reasons I wanted to take honor 8 pro is
1. Bigger Battery .
2. Better Screen.
3. More Space.
4. Low price Compared to one plus 5.
5. Maybe a new experience..
Suggest me pleaseeee? Pro's and Con's and if there are any better alternatives at lower price. Please let me know....thank you

The only con you'll face is EMUI (compared to Oneplus's OxygenOS), everything is better on honor 8 pro.
And about EMUI, don't worry, the devs are working on Cutsom ROMs, and soon they'll be fully stable.
As for better alternatives at lower prices, I guess there's honor 9

Xiaomi MI6 or Huawei P10?

I'm looking to buy new phone, now I have Redmi note 4 global edition, but I want smaller size phone. Headphone jack is not important for me.
I can get Xiaomi for about 436 $ and Huawei p10 for 500 $
I don't know what to buy.
check gsmarena for comparison hardware-wise. but i would get the p10 since they are nicer with kernel sources and its a better looking phone imo. i have the mi6 now...
consider the complain between these 2, P10 is better.
Ps. i have Mi6 , not so bad but not feel like top phone
Did anyone of you used P10 ? I'm little scared only for battery life, because miui is nicely optimised for battery consumption.

because p10 has better options for custom roms, you can flash a well-made one. You also avoid bloatware

Huawei recently released their source for kernel.
So roms should be on their way!
https://www.xda-developers.com/kernel-sources-released-for-the-huawei-mate-9-and-huawei-p10/
While we havent heard anything from Xiaomi and it has been about 6months since the release of the mi 6
Huawei released the kernel sources 4 months ago, still not an single aosp/linage rom...
Way better on the Mi6 even without the kernel sources.
Looking back at the time frame of previous kernel sources drops: we should expect an release in October.

+1
all depends on the dev support, just look at honor 8 and 9.
Mi6 is better. I had P9 and huawei release kernel sources and what? One dev make lineage os which works worser than the worst custom rom on mi5. But EMUI is ok, like miui.
Had P10,overheating,bad battery life due to old CPU as well as GPU performance & throttling make Mi6 a clear winner here. Also there was no oleophobic coating and u risk getting a model with anciennt memory speeds(it's a lottery,i ended up with slow one).

Still, kirin phones don't have much dev love and popularity around developers as Snapdragon does. Xiaomi mi 6 will have by far better and more roms than any huawei phone.
The Honor 9 might be another option, since it's slightly cheaper than the P10, depending on where you are.
I have the Mi6 and love it. It's the best phone I've owned. It has the fastest SD processor, a great display, great sound, a great camera, fast charging, and a notification LED.
Since I was curious, I recently purchased a OnePlus 5. Even using the Google camera app, the OP5's photos weren't as good as the Mi6's. The Mi6's colours were far more natural and true to life, especially the skin tones and colours on trees. The OP5 felt huge, too.
The Honor 9 (and probably the P10) seems very similar to the Mi6, but it seems slightly inferior in every category. If you compare GSM Arena's reviews, the Honor's processor is slightly slower, battery charging takes longer, the battery is smaller, there's less RAM in the cheapest variant, there's no Gorilla Glass and the 1080P videos are inferior. MIUI seems to receive more updates than EMUI, too.
Yeah MIUI got more updates. Just one problem i have with MIUI, expandable notifications on lockscreen and in list, you can do it with two fingers but that's. Hope they will implement that in the future updates.

Face ID and Animoji needs special camera tech on front side.
The face unlock that will come in future with an update will be the same as Oneplus has.
Although, that NPU could make it more accurate and faster.

personally, i still prefer honor 8 Pro because (mainly personal preferences):
* fingerprint sensor at the back
* 2K screen... not that i can tell, but at least nice to be able to gloat about it
* price point -- when it was launched, it was priced affordably. the honor view 10 is actually higher priced
* bigger battery
i feel that honor should have continued to place the fingerprint sensor at the back and make the front really "all screen". that would have been really nice. when one makes home button too tiny and close to the edge of the screen, single handed unlock becomes difficult.
also, when taking selfie, the fact that you can use the fingerprint sensor to take photos (shutter button) is also very practical.
btw, is there laser autofocus on view 10? there is for honor 8 Pro, right?

Why Custom Rom development is totally off??

Almost all custom Roms are not even updated since last year. The custom Rom or Android development for Honor 8 Pro is totally off? Why is that?
Even after oreo release, feels like no one interested.
update: Honor released kernel source for honor 8 pro
https://www.xda-developers.com/honor-8-pro-honor-9-android-oreo-kernel-source/
personally, i feel that this is due to the fact that:
* many are happy for stock ROM
* stock ROM has got a lot of features and options for all sorts of ppl
* in terms of optmisation and efficiency, modern day version of Android don't really drain that much.
* battery tech has improved and we see phones packing bigger battery. so, ppl no longer than concerned abt battery life
* limited user-base -- so ROM developers are better off spending their time on phones with larger user-base, thus getting better feedback and attention

You are right, Thanks.
Just After honor ditch us, no chance of Getting future android experience ?
Honor left honor 8 pro.
Honor is fully focused on AI based honor view 10, the selected developer were given free honor view 10 handsets for its support and development of rom's in future. Honor has ditched the honor 8 pro.
The developers started working on honor view 10 and developed treble lineage os 15.1 rom based on Oreo 8.1 for kirin 970 devices.
Even the magisk and substrantum support is given for honor view 10.
I think this is my last honor device ??.

personally, i dun expect much since honor 8 Pro is a one year old device (using China's V9 as the actual launch). honor already launched a replacement device and if they actually continue to promote older device, then there's something not right with their strategy. so, it's only right that they get support for newer device instead, which is the View 10.
and the Q is... do i need custom rom? nope. i dun think i need it. and do i think it's needed for even View 10? nope... dun think it's needed.
many reasons why i dun think custom rom needed is in my first reply above.

I heard yesterday, Honor had removed Kernal sources for Honor 8 pro(or V9)[after its launched] that's a big problem also for custom roms.
Even in their own website the stock firmware is not available, no even it's name.
Stock rom might ne good, but Many people seeks for Future taste of Android. Honor already ditch us, The only way we could have taste Android p or Android Q using custom roms and now that also not possible.
Where as they are making sure Honor view 10 get erd party development supports.

i bought the honor 8 Pro because it is a good phone. great specs at affordable price. i din get it so i could get the latest version of Android. to me, so long as it works and it's patched (and while it's inconsistent but the updates have been coming from Honor), i'm fine with it.
and based on the above, honor 8 Pro is still a good phone. i don't really care about the latest Android version. what is more important is that i'm using the smartphone for what it can do -- connecting me. and it's doing a great job at that.

U r right, It will still be a very good phone with good specs nod doubt.
Everyone has their own view.
Some people's like custom development.
And Huawei doing open source for view 10 and removing 8pro(v9)'s kernal sources is really disappointing.
When honor8pro was launched, Huawei/Honor out up a show like this is device is going to get all the required attention and care. Instead they struggled with patches itself. Not even updates, fhey couldn't make working patches.
They looked for market and found one. That's it. US market is unreachable at least for an year or two, so a new strategy is to push as many devices as they can in current markets while lobbying for US market.
Honor tried or picturized a Xiaomi like strategy but went Samsung ish. Hardware wise 8pro is matchless in its tier but then there isn't much you can boast about it on realtime usage. They nerfed battery when some issues started its that bad.
It's a compromise device that has been further compromised. I feel honor is a sinking ship. They're severely dependent on marketing than letting phones prove themselves. They have paid Android authority and even Xda well to keep featuring posts or reviews about their phones. So that neo nerds or spec hungry guys can devour these devices and guys like these are usually the ones that are looked up or called up by less nerdy or less tech literates for their next best phone.
Such fake image doesn't hold long and easily shatters. Just like one plus which promised big things and promised support and longevity unlike google... and then just ditched all that, Honor too promised devices with better specs and better support but well... at this rate honor 10view will bite the dust soon as well, or if things keep going bad for honor/Huawei they might loop back.
Only time will tell. But for now it sure is bleak for Honor8pro. There isn't a way to jump to custom roms either. So when **** hits the cieling this phone will be a glorified remote control.
In Nutshell, most of us in india got this device with buyback from flipkart, 1st week march that awaited period start. Time to switch back to some soft-support team with decent hardware, ASAP. My bid is back to moto. whats others planning ?

I didn't took buyback guarantee ?:crying:
Honor 8 pro is the most neglected so called "Flagship killer" of 2017/18.
Shortly after the release of 8 pro, they had taken down all official firmware sources.
View 10 is view 10 all over the globe. 8 pro is just a 128 GB variant of V9. So it has been completely neglected.
When Honor was questioned as to why firmware sources were removed, they gave a dumb reply saying it was HQ decision and they have least control over it.
This is like being in Apple ecosystem. Very sad to see such a potential device being neglected completely.
Honor has suddenly started focusing on lower budget segment in India after 8 pro's launch. Devices like 9 lite are starting to see updates for Face Unlock and yester year Flagship 8 pro is still with buggy Oreo update which they cannot fix.

Honor is a dumb ass!! ?
Go to honor view 10 thread and flash RR OS. Works flawlessly on honor 8 pro. Just some glitches here and there. What custom ROM support do you guys want more?

lol. why port an already working ROM. it works like a charm with only few issues:
1. some animations are choppy(doesn't concern me much)
2. no volte(i don't need it)
3. no stock camera(will be added soon)
4. minor graphical glitches. (doesn't affect the overall interface)

VOLTE is a big concern for me. Atleast in India.
Ok, lets not call it port----, fixing those glitches.
And jst turn of animation scale?, no problem of transitions.
