86.1% Huawei P50 Pocket review: The folding smartphone brings some positive and negative surprises | Notebookcheck
In many aspects, the Huawei P50 Pocket is an equal to a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3, and in one point, the Huawei smartphone even surprises with an unexpected quality for a foldable. Find out in this review what strengths and weaknesses we determined for the foldable P50 smartphone.
70% Huawei P50 Pocket Review: All That Glitters…
Source: Htxt Africa English
Serving as Huawei’s first official foldable phone in South Africa, the P50 Pocket is indeed an impressive debut outing, with its eye catching design, solid folding mechanism and overall performance all worthy of being a flagship phone. There still remains some issues though, with the lack of 5G support and slightly older processor compared to what is on the market currently raising some questions. Add to this the divisive HMS and App Gallery experience and the Huawei P50 Pocket looks great, but may not be able to fully deliver the premium foldable experience that consumers are hoping for. It is another example, much like the Mate 40 Pro, of Huawei having to deal with elements that are outside of its control, but ultimately impact the quality of the device that ends up in customer’s hands.

Huawei P50 Pocket review - A stylish flagship foldable phone that fits in your pocket!
Source: Tech Nave English
As a foldable phone, the Huawei P50 Pocket can be considered a device that caters to the ladies and the high-end market. In particular, the design is sure to capture the hearts of many in Malaysia. As a flagship phone, it also delivers the performance that a flagship phone should have but bear in mind that you will be using mostly HMS. Of course, you can't quite compare this phone to a regular one. At RM5999, the Huawei P50 Pocket was made for fashionistas and those who want the best-looking smartphones. Its only competitors include the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 5G, which is more affordable at RM3999 but isn't as gilded in gold-coloured metal. Well, the choice is yours. So is the Huawei P50 Pocket worth buying? If you have the budget and love its design, go for it! Anyway, do you agree with the points in our review? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave!

80% Huawei P50 Pocket review: The fashion-forward flip phone
Source: Android Central English
The Huawei P50 Pocket is one of the most striking phones I've used, with a phenomenal design, better battery life than the competition, a capable camera system, and excellent ecosystem features for owners of other Huawei devices. Considering the quality of the hardware and the strengths of Huawei's design, the P50 Pocket feels like a more reasonable proposition at its (admittedly high) starting price. But it falls victim to many of the same pitfalls as its flatter cousin, the P50 Pro: It uses a year-old chip without 5G connectivity, and software headaches persist if you use Google services — or indeed any Android apps that rely on Google's Android software layer. The Z Flip 3 remains the 'default' flip phone purchase, but the P50 Pocket is worth a look. It isn't going to replace the Galaxy Z Flip 3 as the "default" purchase in this particular category, particularly considering the price premium you'll pay compared to the Samsung device. But for the right person — someone who cares about design, wants a big display in a small size, and isn't bought into the Google ecosystem...

Huawei P50 Pocket Review: How does Huawei’s new foldable flagship unfold?
Source: The Tech Revolutionist English
For a phone that retails at a whopping $2398, you’d be slightly disappointed that the Huawei P50 Pocket does not support 5G connectivity. You’d also have to look past the fact that you’ll have to give up Google Mobile Services. That said, it is undeniable that the phone has a great main display, excellent camera and a very well-executed folding mechanism. Essentially, the P50 Pocket is a great phone but it will most definitely only appeal to a niche segment of the market.

80% Huawei P50 Pocket Review: A Fashion-Forward Galaxy Z Flip 3 Competitor
Source: Android Headlines English
The Huawei P50 Pocket is an excellent smartphone. Granted, it’s quite an expensive one as well, but it’s a great competitor to the Galaxy Z Flip 3. Huawei cannot really do anything to revert the US ban, so Google apps are out of reach, but everything else is fair game. Once you set up this phone app, you’ll really be able to enjoy it. It feels really polished, in both software and hardware portions, and it looks truly great. Gold is really not my color, but I actually like the way this phone looks, that’s for sure. It feels premium, while it has a great display, and an excellent camera setup that is side-by-side with the Huawei P50 Pro in terms of performance. The bottom line is, Huawei did a great job, and if you’re in the market for a clamshell foldable smartphone, and don’t need Google apps, this phone is worth considering.

Huawei P50 Pocket Review: Out Of Pocket
Source: MrMobile English
If you haven’t noticed, foldables are finally happening. The past year has seen Samsung’s dominant Galaxy Fold family challenged by Huawei; Xiaomi; Honor and Oppo. Even Microsoft has recently gained ground with its Surface Duo 2, whose updates have rendered it much more palatable as a dual-screen device. But maybe you noticed the pattern there: all those are full-format book-style foldables. For those who also enjoy the more petite flavor – the clamshell flip phone – well, it’s mostly been The Samsung Show. Motorola has fallen behind since kicking off the category in 2019, and a would-be clamshell competitor from TCL was canceled before reaching production. So: the P50 Pocket was destined to make a splash no matter which manufacturer made it. And as it happens, it hails from a company whose beleaguered business condition has done nothing to blunt its hardware engineering prowess. I’m Michael Fisher and I’ve spent two weeks with the first flip phone from Huawei: the P50 Pocket!

User Experience Review – Huawei P50 Pocket
Source: NLT English
As of now, it just feels like Huawei focused all on the hardware and didn’t take advantage of this form factor from the software side. Remember – these are unrelated to Huawei’s lack of Google Mobile Services too. So, should you go out and buy the Huawei P50 Pocket? Eh, definitely not. At the starting price of RM5,999, I really don’t know why you want to buy this instead of the Galaxy Z Flip3 that costs 1/3 lower than the P50 Pocket, has Google Mobile Services, and comes with a proper set of features to elevate the user experience, and the Z Flip3 is also IPX8-rated.

85% Huawei P50 Pocket review: a folding camera phone
Source: Phone Arena English
The Huawei P50 Pocket: a gorgeous clamshell foldable phone with Huawei's camera prowess, promising the perfect combination between form and function. With stunning quality of images and a verstatile camera system, this phone can easily make it into the best camera phones category. Coupled with the eye-catching design and interesting camera bump and cover screen, the phone is instantly recognizable. Unfortunately though, the lack of Google Services might be a deal breaker for some. However, if you think you can manage without Google Maps and YouTube (there are alternatives on the App Gallery) and you want a clamshell foldable with great camera, you will like this phone.

80% Huawei P50 Pocket review
Source: GSM Arena English
Can you live without Google Maps and Netflix on mobile? Pocket doesn't have them. Do you game a lot? A SD888 would always run hot, but it's particularly troubled inside the Pocket. Do foldables make you uneasy because they'll break when you so much as look at them? The lack of an IP rating on the Pocket isn't going to help. You insist on having 5G (for whatever reason)? Not in your Pocket, no. There are plenty of reasons why the Pocket is a bad idea, but there's a Pros list too. Fascinating in principle, foldables can be somewhat utilitarian (like Samsung's) or sexy (like this one). And both current Samsungs seem to compromise this or that so as to fit a budget and not to cannibalize other models in the lineup - Huawei doesn't seem to be overly worried about either with the Pocket. The concessions Samsung had to make for the Flip to happen, we think, are camera and design. Those are precisely the two aspects in which Huawei has made the superior Flip - the Pocket is the better-looking of the two and also the better cameraphone.

The Huawei P50 Pocket is their first mainstream foldable smartphone that melds a luscious 120Hz OLED, solid performance and a good primary camera into a compact form factor that has been lavished with premium build quality and an exceptionally posh looking design. If you can live with the omission of 5G and a few extra hoops to jump through for access to Google, the P50 Pocket is a powerful, compact offering that marks a return to form for Huawei.

85% Huawei P50 Pocket Review — Just Sheer Extravagance
Source: Pokde English
The HUAWEI P50 Pocket is probably one of the most aesthetically pleasing devices I have looked at, with its beautiful 3D crosshatch pattern that helps set it apart from other flagships in the market. The main display is great as well, with a very mild crease. Speaking of which, the hinge seems to only wants to open flat or close shut, with it not exactly wanting to stay open in the popular 90° open angle. For RM5999, the HUAWEI P50 Pocket is well in the “very expensive” category of gadgets, all things considered. For two-thirds of the money, you could get a comparable foldable. While it may not have the gapless hinge design, sweet symmetrical holes on the lid and also the rather impressive camera setup of the HUAWEI P50 Pocket, for that much less money, I think it’s pretty obvious what people will go with… I personally prefer larger foldables like the HUAWEI Mate X series, but hey, if you want something more pocketable than your current smartphone or just something fancier, I guess the HUAWEI P50 Pocket is the device to look at.

60% Huawei P50 Pocket review: Bringing the fight to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3
Source: Expert Reviews English
All things considered, Huawei’s first clamshell foldable is a tragic story of mixed results. There’s no arguing that the P50 Pocket is a bit of a design statement, with a great screen and a wonderful set of cameras. But, on the flip side, glaring oversights such as the lack of 5G and poor battery efficiency – not to mention the usual software woes – make for an increasingly difficult smartphone to recommend. After all, the Galaxy Z Flip 3 not only costs less, but it performs better, comes with full-fat Android and connects to the 5G network. If you’ve got this much money to spend and you have your heart set on a folding smartphone, Samsung’s foldy flagship is still the one to get.

Hands on: Huawei P50 Pocket Review
Source: Trusted Reviews English
Without Google Mobile Services or 5G, it’s always going to be difficult to recommend this phone, especially with such a high starting price. That said, the folding format is well-executed here — although a larger outer screen would add plenty of utility — and the screen and camera are very good too.

70% Huawei P50 Pocket review
Source: Tech Advisor English
The P50 Pocket tells a familiar story. Huawei has put together some fantastic hardware here, with a hinge mechanism that’s beyond Samsung’s best efforts, solid battery life, and a powerful camera setup. There are minor niggles – I don’t love the shiny finishes and it’s a shame that Huawei couldn’t match the Z Flip 3’s waterproofing and wireless charging – but ultimately the big problem remains that there’s no 5G connectivity and no support for core Google apps and services. At a cut-throat price it might make sense to sacrifice those, but when the closest competitor is cheaper and more fully-featured, the P50 Pocket is a very hard sell. More than anything else, that’s a shame. Huawei has knocked it out of the park here, and it’s only forces outside the company’s control that hold the P50 Pocket back.

Huawei P50 Pocket initial review: So shiny!
Source: Pocket Lint English
From a design perspective, the P50 Pocket is quite different in approach to what we've seen so far - particularly when compared to Samsung's Z Flip 3. The round screen on the cover, and the textured, patterned finish make it very unique-looking. But what we can't get away from is the price. Where Samsung has been able to bring its flip phone down to a palatable price - no different to most flagship phones - the Huawei P50 Pocket is incredibly expensive still. And for those of us in western markets - the lack of Google Play Services means it may not be all that practical for most people.

Huawei P50 Pocket Review: Excellent screen and main camera on a foldable, but still a niche
Source: XDA Developers English
Of course, most of what I said in this review will be moot points without two main considerations: the price, and the GMS situation. The reality is, Huawei’s €1,299 ($1,466) pricing, plus not having access to Google Mobile Services really limit the P50 Pocket’s mainstream appeal. It’s worth wondering why Huawei didn’t price this phone lower, especially with the Galaxy Z Flip 3 available right now with 5G connectivity, unrestricted software, and a lower price tag. If I have to take a guess, it’s that Huawei’s consumer group isn’t willing to let go of its premium brand status just because of sanctions that are beyond the group’s control. In mainland China, Malaysia, and parts of Hong Kong, Huawei is seen as a luxury brand whose gadgets are a notch above other Chinese manufacturers. “Huawei is considered the Rolex of mobile phones by Chinese people,” a popular phone importer in Hong Kong told me few months ago, when I expressed surprise that all his China model P50 Pros were sold out on day one. Some people will buy Huawei products even if it’s more expensive, even if it doesn’t have Google.

Huawei P50 Pocket Review

The Huawei P50 Pocket is the best clamshell foldable phone that money can buy. Considering the specs inside and the experience that you get from this foldable device, justified the price, and many would love to buy. But the OS situation may also be something that you should think about before you spend your money. But if you don’t mind the different software experience, then this is a solid phone indeed. But if the software experience is something that you care about, then you may go for the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 or Oppo Find N. So, the end decision is up to you, and your buying decision depends on what you want out of this phone.

Huawei P50 Pocket Review
Source: Yugatech English
The Huawei P50 Pocket is not Huawei’s first folding smartphone, although this is its first foldable smartphone to sport a clamshell design. If you dig this design, then you now have another alternative to the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3. It has a beautiful design and good cameras. It has a nice display too, but we’re yet to see how it handles creasing over time. What will probably keep interested buyers from getting this is the lack of 5G and Google apps. The latter concern can be solved with a workaround, but it might be cumbersome to those who just want Google to work right away. As for the price, as of writing, Huawei is yet to release that info, but if they get to aggressively price this against the competition, then we might see that there’s a lot to love about this device.

Huawei P50 Pocket Review: Perfect Combination of Hardware Algorithms
Source: Igeekphone English
The addition of a touchable external screen solves the problem of frequently opening the main screen when there are notifications daily. The functions that can be used on the external screen can be used after opening the main screen. It can be said that the external screen is an extension of the main screen. In terms of gaming experience, the 21:9 screen of the Huawei P50 Pocket can be said to have its physical plug-in. The long and narrow screen brings a wider game vision. This advantage can be used in current mainstream games. It can be said to be very liked. If the Huawei Mate X series is more business-oriented, the P50 Pocket is a trendy luxury product Huawei has prepared for young people. If you are looking for fashion and individuality, you must not miss this Huawei P50 Pocket.

Huawei P50 Pocket Specifications, Pros and Cons
Source: OI Spice Tech News English
Huawei P50 Pocket is the foldable version of the Huawei P50 that was released in December 2021, and the expected price of this foldable phone is around $1,412 (Rs 1,05,499 in India) approx. Although, there aren’t any competitive edge seen in this phone since compare to the Samsung foldable smartphone. But, the foldable 6.9-inches OLED panel provides immersive colors and 120 Hz refresh support, while colors and saturation are pretty decent. The phone also features a side-mounted fingerprint. In terms of the processing powers, the phone relies on the Snapdragon 888 4G chipset. Yes, Huawei P50 Pocket didn’t support the 5G band. Hopefully, the HarmonyOS 2.0 gives a fresh breeze compared to the regular Android OS. As for the camera section, you are getting a triple camera setup including the 40MP primary, 13MP ultrawide, and 32MP secondary camera that can easily provide 4K video recording. At the same time, the 10.7 MP selfie camera also renders decent photos and videos.

Model:

Huawei P50 Pocket is Huawei's first vertical folding screen mobile phone. It represents Huawei’s technological innovation strength. Previously folding screen smartphones are on the Mate series, but this time it has come to the P series. The Huawei P50 Pocket adopts a new generation of water drop hinges, which provides a nearly seamless visual effect when folded, and achieves a slim body thickness. The thickness is 7.2mm when unfolded, and only 15.2mm after folding. At the same time, the impact resistance is increased by 62%, and the extrusion resistance is increased by 33%. As for colour options, Huawei P50 Pocket is available in crystal diamond white and obsidian black. Crystal Diamond White uses the industry's first double-sided three-dimensional micro-engraving process to present a unique artistic sense. The unique mirror craftsmanship of obsidian black makes the back of the phone shine like a mirror.

For display, Huawei P50 Pocket is equipped with a 6.9-inch, 21:9 ratio foldable flexible inner screen with a resolution of 2790 x 1188 pixels, supports 120Hz high refresh rate, 300Hz touch sampling rate as well as adopts P3 global colour management. The small screen on the back of Huawei P50 Pocket is called the "Smart External Screen", which supports a variety of customized themes, supports HarmonyOS universal cards, and provides rich applications. There is no need to flip the cover, and various convenient experiences such as answering calls, quick selfies, and smart payment are all at your fingertips. In terms of performance, Huawei P50 Pocket is equipped with Qualcomm's flagship Snapdragon 888 processor, a built-in 4000mAh battery, supports 40W super fast charge, supports WiFi 6, dual-card, four-network coordination, and three-network concurrency.

In terms of imaging, Huawei P50 Pocket is equipped with a new hyperspectral imaging system, the first XD Fusion Pro to introduce hyperspectral imaging technology, and three rear cameras, which are a 40-megapixel primary colour camera, a 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 32-megapixel hyperspectral camera. The new machine also inherits the primary color engine and computational optics of the P50 series. The Huawei P50 Pocket integrates the flagship imaging capabilities of the P50 series' primary colour engine and computational optics. In terms of imaging effects, it also tends to be realistic rather than deliberately smearing the picture to please users. When shooting macro, there is no need to manually adjust the picture parameters. Just move the phone close enough to the object to be shot, and the Huawei P50 Pocket can automatically adjust to macro mode. Overall, Huawei P50 Pocket may be the strongest folding screen image flagship currently. The P50 Pocket is a trendy luxury product Huawei has prepared for young people. Users who are looking for fashion and individuality can consider this model to upgrade.
