Keg_of_Corona, 06 Sep 2017Is there a Chance that this Phone can be Upgraded to Nougat ?Huawei (HiHonor) has not honored their commitment of 2 years of updates stopping at Marshmallow. They have no plans to upgrade this phone to nougat at least in the USA. Requests to HiHonor for info on the subject are responded with by telling us how valuable we are as customers and with links to their Facebook which they use primarily to try and sell you other products.

Some people say you can clean the headphone jack with something, but that would not work for me. I had to use the factory reset to make the sound work again. I had to reinstall my apps after the factory reset, but my pictures were safe on my SD card, and my contacts and apps all came back through Google Play. Good luck, wa alaykumu as salam.

                              Don't go for this phone....it's the worst phone i ever had. I had used this phone about 3 weeks long..the battery drains fast & the phone hangs a lot...there is no screen protection thus the huawei companies are promoting this phone as uncrackable...i had a bike accident.the phone was on my pocket...after i was discharged from the hospital,i checked the phone is probably fine or not..it disappointed me..the phone's screen,front camera&display are damaged..i don't have any other options..the repairing will cost 4k...I can't afford this much for this phone because the phone is only worth 10k....so don't go for this phone...the gaming performance, camera,quality screen,software performance & don't hang up phones are out there at this same price...

Can i am go with it or ... moreIt's been a year I've been using this phone, specifically KIW-L21 model, for starting 2-3 months, the phone worked fine and performed average but after then it started lagging a lot till the 11th month and it was that peak point where I thought I should just give up this phone and get an old iPhone, basically I was dissatisfied with Android, but before taking that decision, I tried an experiment on my phone and thus installed LineageOS 14.1 based on Android 7.1.2, it's been a month now and I've installed 70 apps and 2 movies and few games lag and do not respond but overall the UI is fast and fluent and I'm happy with that. It even supports VR by using the built-in compass and OTG as well, simply I'm loving it.
