I heard other tech-tubers opinion, that Mate 20 X can be safely used with 40W super charger from Mate 20 Pro. What do you think about that?

hey bro. Great video as always love your style of making a videos eh! I need to buy this phone real bad yo but can't seem to find a right place or safe and reliable online seller for the international variant! don't wanna get ripped off eh! Can you tell me please that where can I get the mate 20x 8gb/256 or 6gb/128gb official Global version or HK version via online? Can you make a suggestion about that since it ain't launched yet in my country I'm gonna have to import it! suggest me some reliable seller in HK or e-commerce platform! Reply would be appreciated! Great work keep it up!
The Mate 20 and the Mate 20 X has support for the 3.5mm audio jack and has IP53 water resistance.The Mate 20 Pro,on the other hand,does not have the jack but comes with a better IP68 water resistance. The Mate 20 X is a special case though as it features a liquid multi-dimensional cooling system with Vapour Chamber (VC) and Graphene Film. So if you’re a hardcore mobile gamer and want the best thermals,the Mate 20X is for you.
This was a GREAT FAQ. Please keep doing these in a similar format, especially covering Band support. When I first heard about the Mate 20X, I thought it was the best value for money. You may not get wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, the 3D Face Unlock of the Mate 20 Pro, but you get the same camera, more screen real estate, a headphone jack and a bigger battery. I've narrowed my next phone down to this or the Note 9. It's gonna come down to pricing.
The mate 20x is truly a stellar phone, if you can handle the size.😍👍👍. Great review Frankie, I loved the FAQ question round 😀💛👌. Awaiting your comparison of the mate 20x with the magic 2. P.s thank you for mentioning that Kimovil site, it sounds really helpful. I will check it out.

Thanks FT for the update. For me this phone is the best one I have purchased. On my previous phones I would have to turn up the volume and display 100 percent. With this one down to 60 percent and still loud and bright. The only trouble I have is when I'm on website in landscape mode, I'll swipe up and instead of the page scrolling up it will go to the home screen. Also looks like you'll be able to rebrand the AL00 pretty soon. Guys at XDA are hot and heavy on it. If you're coming from Apple or Samsung you're going to be extremely impressed with the battery life of all the Mates.
totally agree with u Sir =THE BEST BIG PHONE EVER!
Its almost 2 years ago u made this review video. I bought a month ago the note 20 ultra and still use the mate 20x. This is beauty.
I love this two week review format. Covers everything anyone needs to know. Also, thanks for that Kimovil website, very useful. I ordered mine earlier this week and it's supposed to arrive tomorrow....super excited.

Do you experience any quick battery discharge after update the new version of EMUI to the Huawei mate20 X
Great video Frankie! I actually now own a Chinese version Mate 20 x 8gb 256gb, and even though it took me half a day to figure out how to install all the Google services, it was well worth it. I am in love with this phone, as it has everything I put on my check list. I moved from a ZTE AXON 7 to the Mate 20 x. One of the most crucial features I was looking for was great dual speakers, and it does not disappoint! And the rest of the features are a bonus, plus the Kirin 980! What a monster chip, paired with the 8gb ram. I am happy to report that this phone works perfect with T-Mobile network! Again, thank you Frankie, as your reviews of this phone really lead me to purchase the Mate 20 x!

Have you tested the cooling system? As most phones will get heated up say 45mins of gaming or non stop talking for 30mins... Is it any better compared to xx brand phone. Thanks.
Again another excellent video, very helpful.
Such a great job answering many of the questions I had. Thank you Frankie. I'm dying to get my hands on this phone in the US! I'm rocking the Mate 10 Pro right now and love it. Mate 20X looks like a great next phone. I'm a new subscriber and I am very impressed with your work. Thanks dude!

You say it does not have LED notification yet KiMovil says that it does, which is it? I'm leaning towards you as I don't see where it would be placed and they may have just overlooked it on the site update since almost all phones have this. If it has none what does it do just a graphic notice on the always on screen? Believe it or not this might be a dealbreaker for me and I really wanted it for the 7.2" screen after my 7" Mediapad x2 died. I'm guessing with the 19:9 ratio it isn't even as big as the 7" 16:9 mediapad. Might have to live with my 6.4" xiaomi mi mix. If you can respond confirming the LED question that would help me a lot.

Respectfully disagree. I am an avid Note user, have been since its 3rd iteration and have owned each model year including my 512/8 Gig Note 9. I don't believe I am in the minority. However, I do believe in your point and the direct correlation between Samsung's Plus variants to address those looking for Note like large screen but no stylus input. Cheers.

Could the notch be hidden on a Mate 20 x? I know it's possible with the mate 20 and 20 pro, but what about that guy? Thanks.
Do a detailed camera review of the front and rear cameras of the Mate20X showcasing the night mode, slo mo and stabilization of both the front/rear cameras! This was a really helpful video, Frankie. Cheers!
Great video, thank you very much! I have a very specific but important question regarding charging, and charging time. Both the Pro and X modela s have fast charging. But the fast charging on the Pro model, uses a stronger charger and the phone will charge much quicker than the X. So my question is, if using the Pro charger on the X (or another charger that is stronger than the one that comes in the box of the X), will the aX actually charge faster?
Does somebody know when comes in Europe? I heard about a problem with the notifications
Hi Frankie Tech, thanks for your video. You said version L29 is global version, and better, but do you know if the 8GB/256 (EVR-L00) version is possible to use in France (or europe) ? Can we remove chinese applications and install google apps, can you explain what are the real problem please ? Impossible for me to find infos :/
Well, which one should I buy The Honor Magic 2 or the Mate 20X
Hi! Is there any phone as big and as good as huawei mate 20 X?
Is there any light bleeding? Check using infrared camera or thermal?
Hi there,is there still the wird forced display dimming?
Hi Frankie! I visit Kimovil everyday and it seems they have no available L29 (global version). I just want to ask where do you get your 5,849 HK USD mate 20 X. I will really appreciate your reply. Thanks!
Does it support native video call direct from phone dialer?
hello Mr frankie tech, i would love to ask u about the screen..i own the huawei mate 20x one thing i noticed whenever i stare directly at the screen straght theres kinda yellowish filter somehow (even i already set the display to be cold temp mode) but when i stare the phone on the side like moving to the side...the yellowish gone..but moving back straight there yellowish tint reappear..it kinda bugs me a bit..so i am wondering if ur unit is the same or is it my unit got some issues or is it typical for oled screed to be like that?

Brilliant info frankie,i love ur vids!!! Keep up the grt wrk!😆👍🏻 I live in u.k & am going to treat myself to a new phone in the new year, but cant decide between the "MATE 20X & MATE 20PRO." At the mo,i hav the huawei/honor note 8 which ive loved but sadly dropped hence why i need a new phone.Im a big fan of huge phones so am loving this mate 20X. But i also love 'high resolution/high clarity' phones cos i take alot of photos,play games & watch movies. Some1 told me the mate 20pro is better resolution than the mate 20X, is this true? If so, which do u think is the better phone for screen size aswell as resolution/clarity? I'd really appreciate your advice. Big thanks,Faye😃👍🏻
Dude i love this phone but too bad i already own a mimax3..loving this 3camera concept though,will a mate20 suffice as my second phone?

How is your battery life? What is your settings?
Frankie, what's the difference between global and Chinese version of these phones? Also is root still possible on both versions?
Which phone takes better pictures? Mi Max 3 or Mate 20x? If I already have a Mi Max3, is it worth the upgrade?
Hi... If i will buy chinese version with google play i will have any problem with all google services?
Hey Frankie. I have the same model as you and I can't get my Google feed page (set up to come when you swipe left) even after going to settings, the options to choose Google feed isn't even there. Also when I tether the device it gives internet to my other device but then I find the internet in the source device (the X) limited. It's probably the most frustrating thing about this device Also battery life is great, but when you have private space set it drains your battery power somewhat. Animation isn't as smooth , the gesture functions hasn't been perfected and the user experience in terms of system navigation isn't as fluid or intuitive as the one Plus or the pixel.
Does L29 model have different LTE bands?
After much debating with myself I finally decided to purchase the Mate 20 X, it is a lot of money I will admit, however Frankie I hope you will think the phone will cover the 3 main things I look for in a phone these days. 1. Good Battery 2. Good Camera 3. Good Sound to listen to Music while On the go. What do you reckon Frankie? Do you reckon this will be a good choice? It will be replacing the Pocophone F1 which to me has done a very good job over the last 5-6 months, however I just need that extra Oomph even if it means I'm paying top Pound for it.
Hi! Prices over here in the USA are ridiculous for this phone. Could you provide a link where i can purchase this same model for a good price? Also, will google stop working when updates are due on this phone? Thanks

Hey Frankie. I like this format of review ☺ great FAQs ☺ I've read in some reviews and videos that the "Gluegate" issue that was on the Mate20pro was because of the AMOLED provided. If you get a Mate20pro with an Amoled from LG, chances are youre gonna get gluegate. If you get the Amoled from Samsung youre all good ☺ at least thats what i heard
Is there any improvement to the video? I'm planning on buying it so I want to know if it's worth buying over the Note 9 or s9 plus.
I suppose it is possible to add wireless charging to the Mate 20X by plugging a wireless charging sticker on the USB port?
