According to Huawei, AOD only supports OLED screens and Kirin 990 chip models. However, Wang Chenglu revealed that old models will also use the AOD function. He said that in Q1 2020, a total of 8 OLED screens will get this feature. The 8 old Huawei phones include Huawei P30, P30 Pro, Mate 20 Pro, Mate 20 Porsche Design, Mate 20 X (4G), Mate 20 X (5G), Nova 5 Pro and Honor Magic 2 will be the first to adapt to the colorful AOD function.
AOD — Always on Display is a feature that ensures that you don’t have to activate the entire display. You can partially lit the screen. The screen can display some important features. This feature is known as “off-screen display” on Huawei phones.
What about p20 pro?
P10 plus… Send me two AOD… Waiting
That’s the thing i dont like about Huawei. In some countries Mate 20, Mate 30 & P20 are still relatively new & less than a year with most users. Huawei calls them old phones and soon support will cease. I bought the Nova 2i when first launched & in 7-8 months no more upgrades from Huawei. I ditched the phone & switch over to Xiaomi after that as the company still supports phone models that are 4-5 years old with OS upgrades.
