Earlier reports from China that users were getting eMMC 5.1 memory speeds on their Huawei P10 devices were confirmed by a Huawei executive. Huawei Business Group CEO Richard Yu admitted that they used a mix of eMMC and UFS memory chips inside the P10. This is mainly due to a shortage in supply of the faster UFS 2.0 chips.
UFS is the new type of storage being used in smartphones and they are significantly faster than the older and cheaper eMMC chips. eMMC storage typically only gets about 250MB/s sequential read speeds while UFS 2.0 can go from 500MB/s to 750MB/s. So if you’re transferring a ton of photos and 4K videos in your phone, this could be noticeable.
To find out if you’re one of the lucky owners of the P10 with the faster UFS 2.0 storage, just download and install AndroBench in the Google Play Store and run the benchmarks. You should get results just like the one below.
If you get scores north of 500MB/s second, then you’re in luck.
Our unit of the P10 got a score of 730MB/s. That’s fast!
Mine got 784
Opss p10

Got mine last Saturday in Globe Store SM Aura. Read it for 608.
Got the p10 from globe. Got a 553 read. Why is it that you got 700?
it depends per shipment/batch i guess.

How about the P10 Plus?
P10 inang galawan yan oh. Why shortchange people buying a flagship phone?
Hi sirAbe, ung po ba sa Globe Plans Huawei P10 eMMC or UFS? ManyTnx
Up pls. would also like to know if Globe has the eMMC units.
Cannot be sure pa but it is likely UFS yung sa Pinas.
Up po on this topic pls. hopefully globe has the UFS 2.1 chips.
i’ll try to check on it though. thanks, sir Abe.
Let me know what you find out. :)
talked to one of Globe’s employees but they know nothing about the issue and (they) could not check the innards by downloading and using the app since the handset’s packaging is “sealed”. Unless someone takes the risk and maybe I will since I like this handset,
update: YES, Globe’s Huawei P10 Sequential read @ 712.56 MB/s.
Cool!
good thing i took the risk (y)
Got mine from globe and its ufs
huwaw! simpleng panloloko nang huawei ah. haha! ayos talaga.
Talk about quality control and shortchanging your customers.
Anyways, a flagship smartphone and Leica for a camera should be waterproof at least. A standard at this day and age.
Huawei failed again.
lucky yo abe!
so huawei was hoping people will not notice it.
