I emailed Huawei USA about device, they said they had no info, ask international

I emailed Huawei USA last week asking about availability and pricing and they wrote back that they had no information and that I needed to contact the international division. So, I did, still waiting to hear back. Looks like this is not coming to the US though based on that interaction.
Do Huawei phones ever come to the US?

You can buy the Ascend Mate 2 directly from GetHuawei.com and it will work on AT&T and T-Mobile although I don't have details about full LTE speeds or not. Since Huawei supposedly created that site for american consumers to buy the Mate 2, I am hoping they will quickly make the Mate 7 available via that site and that it will support full LTE speeds - not Cat 6 since I think it is barely supported in the US (if at all) so far.

I don't see the Mate7, in the USA, being sold for the same price point as the Mate2.
Also, having owned the Mate2 for a couple months, I see the light! High class specs,
in "real world" operation, are for the birds. Yes, the Mate2 has a slower processor,
lower density screen, older android build, but, I use up two 2000 minutes, 2gb of data,
couple hundred text, emails and it works like a champ, fast, bright clear screen. For
my preferences, these "mid spec" devices work perfectly, and save me a LOT of money.

2- Which Website Can I Place My Order. And Buy The Mate 7.
3- Does The Ascend Mate 7 Comes With The Google Play Store Install.
¡¡ THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!
From Huawei Mobile:
Thank you for your mail.
We support shipping to United States,
Huawei Ascend Mate7 will be released at the end of September,
We will email you at the first time when the Huawei Ascend Mate7 smartphone be available,
you need to download the Google Play Store in the APPS center.
Looks like a couple more weeks until it's officially released. But on the bright side, it looks like it will be available direct from Huawei for shipping to the US.

Not compatible with the T-Mobile 4G LTE network, better check about AT&T to be sure

[QUESTION] Honor 8 FRD-DL00

Hi guys,
I have a few questions about my device as I was unable to find any information about my model after two hours of googling.
I bought my Honor 8 about week ago, I love the device, it is really beautiful piece of hardware.
Anyway I am located in Central Europe in Czech Republic. After two days or so I realized that my phone is not using LTE at all.
Also I updated my phone on the first day I bought it. There is Czech localization available on the phone in EMUI 5, however a lot of stuff is in Chinese (update's changelog, stock apps from Huawei, I am also unable to change HiVoice to Google assistant, etc.) and I had to install Google Play additionally as it wasn't there at all.
I was wondering if this is really a model for the Europe as the shop where I bought the phone says, or they are scammers?
My current firmware version is FRD-DL00C00B368.
I would like to know if there is a way how to switch to the Europe version of the firmware?
Many thanks you guys, love XDA, hopefully someone will have the answers.
Michal

Hi there,
What a weirdo situation. Your current model (FRD DL00 if i'm not mistaken) was taken off the shelf not a long time ago here where I live (France), even tho you can find most editions here (Including chinese and indian if you look hard enough ). Europe's standard model is actually FRD-L09
My suggestion is that you waltz back to the store and exchange your current unit for a FRD-L09. You're perfectly entitled to a refund, as european laws grant you a two-weeks arbitrary refund, and a two-year warranty. More info here : http://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/consumers/shopping/guarantees-returns/index_en.htm

Will I be able to use the Huawei Mate 40 pro if imported to India from Dubai

Hello guys, I have been looking through multiple forums & discussions if phones imported from other country work.
So I was looking for the Mate 40 pro to be imported from Dubai to use it in India, will this have any issues in the usability.
Do share your thoughts

I think you can use it without problems, as long as that model is not one for China.
