WiFi strength, range, and throughput

[XDA_RealLifeReview]

Rate this thread to express how you think the Huawei Mate 10's Wifi performs. A higher rating indicates that it has excellent range, throughput, and signal strength. Like when you're taking a dump in the bedroom upstairs, do your videos have to buffer or do they come through without interruption?

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

I have had issues with my BLA L29 with wifi. Not very consistent in downloads, as some times i need to reconnect to the wifi to have my full download speed. Otherwise, on noremla carrier 4g very good reception overall.

The only gripe is no AC MIMO. Otherwise, it's perfectly fine.

WiFi is the one issue for me. I have other android phones side by side trying to get the same content on the same WiFi network and the Huawei struggles and does not load or does so slowly. I think there is a fundamental issue with the connectivity of this phone.

me too,
you have been able to solve it?

It's a great phone but this is a big bug that I hope will resolve.

I work a lot with a nas and the huawei leaves a lot to be desired.

my wife's s8 goes a thousand times better than mate 10

No. I sent it back and back to HTC U11+. which has better camera and stable Wi-Fi.

the Wifi throttle the DL speed badly when 5g is enabled

my ISP allows almost 1gb connection over 5ghz wifi signal however all my mate 10 pro can do is 380mbps DL and 450mbps UP , on the other hand my wife's Galaxy s8 can do 600mbps over 5ghz wifi signal !!!

I find WiFi poor with this phone. Shame, I love it so much.

How is the battery of HTC U11 Plus compared to Mate 10? Is it better?

Not quite as good. But still very good.

How many hrs of SoT could you get? And how about the screen brightness, I heard that it's dimmer than other phones but is it still usable under sunlight? Thanks!

I can get between 5 and 7 SOT. Its the best battery life I've had aside from the mate. But that was far too buggy for me.

The HTC is a solid enjoyable reliable phone.

Screen brightness is good enough for me. Never noticed any problems in sunlight. Although living in the UK I don't get much sunlight to test unfortunately!!

Yes thanks so much, Im going to change my Mate 9 to U11+ but I have no idea it's worth upgrading or not. My Mate 9 currently is a beast for me. Hope I make a right choice.

I have the 10 lite and I have 5g router but I can't find the signal. Do we have 5g wifi?

Mate 10 Lite does not support dual band WiFi, so 802.11n 5 GHz is not supported.

thanks !!
