Not like for like, the 40euro a month is 10GB of data. The 20euro payg only gives you 6GB of data. Vodafone are by far the best network, and are surprisingly expensive for additional data.

Vodafone X on payg, gives you 20gb data per pm month for 20 euro.

They upped it to 25gb fantastic deal. I'm on the unlimited weekends. Well worth it.

Opinions on this phone? Is there still a concern about Chinese monitoring or something?

Heres an anecdote some might find interesting.

Approximately 17 days ago, 2 days before my 12 day vacation to china I lost my beloved Lenovo P2. I went to a Vodafone shop and they said i was due an upgrade and gave me a P20 pro if i renewed my contract. In return for a signature I got it. Very nice phone. Different to my last and a couple of small annoyances. I had bought a nikon coolpix for my trip but hardly used it because the camera on the P20 is incredible. Its a dslr in your pocket. The depth and clarity is fantastic. My only criticism really is the battery. It lasts about a day, even with power optimization on.

Tuesday morning in Shanghai i get a text from my house keeper, "i found your phone, it was beneath the sofa". I got home friday night and there is my lenovo p2. With 7% battery. Its been on this entire time and still functioning.

I think ill keep my lenovo as my phone and use the p20 pro as a camera.

Does anyone want to buy a nikon coolpix?

I'm on Vodafone also and no update yet. The last update I seemed to get 1 week after the first reports here, so is seems like its a staged release with these updates.

I don't know if this is based on IMIE numbers and if Vodafone or Huawei control, or maybe the software is release to the mobile base stations and only when you connected to a base station that has it activated it updates?

I got the 9.1 update on my P20 lite a good few weeks back with Vodafone.

If you go into the HiCare app it generally appears there first and can be manually started before automatically arriving via normal updates.

I'm with Vodafone and still on 9.0

Just got the update there. Annoyingly, all my Google apps and Facebook apps don't show the app picture, just a symbol akin to the play store symbol. What's that all about. I can't bloody find anything

Got update this morning , Just waiting on new Android Auto to update for me now....

Bill pay for Vodafone = 199 upfront and 40 per month for 24 months = 1160.
Pre pay = 480 upfront. 2 years @ 20 per month = 960.

Depends what way you want to finance it

I know it’s 3.5 months since these prices but I just got the P20 Pro for £399 (€450 ) on John Lewis website. I’m SIM only with Three for €30 per month unlimited . Happy Days, I love it !


Asked in Carphone warehouse about buying this on a contract just this week and I was told €240 upfront and 2 month contract for €45 per month (unlimited data) €1080 plus €240 =€1320 !!! (Three)

Hopefully it will sort it self out. I be annoyed. And temped not to throw the phone out the window. Lol.

Well I own the phone now.
I’d be paying for usage anyway . €30 over 24 months =€720. Happy with that.

My last phone was 7 years old and I was off contract for ages so it was going to have to be replaced anyway. I’m happy to have bought this outright .
What I don’t like is paying for a phone over a 24 month period along with your usage. There,s no option to move providers for better offers or if your phone gets lost or broken or is acting up before 2 years is up (like a lot of iPhones) . I’m never going back on contract. I like the freedom now.

Turns out it was the particular theme I was using. Must have been an old one or something. Though I still haven't found one that I like yet!

Now that you say that, just reminds me that I got a warning when update complete that my current old theme may not be compatably and would I like to update to new theme.

I'm sure this is a world of good too you now:rolleyes:

Got my update on my phone

I got the update last night (Vodafone) and My battery has been awful today. I'd usually finish the day with 40-50% battery remaining but today I've had to recharge it twice. Raging.

Slattsy

Got mine the other day. Battery much the same.

What's different?

I don't know what's causing it. I used it pretty much how I would any other day and didn't change any settings. I'll see how tomorrow goes after another full charge.

dinevalesco

Got the update and I like the cosmetic changes, aswell as some under the hood ones.

Favourite thing about it though is that it plays nicely with Google Photos again - no stutter while scrolling etc.
