How to use a ringtone video on Huawei

Far away are those times of "polytones" in which having a popular song that sounds on the radio as a ringtone seemed the best. Over time, we can use any song we have on our smartphone, and even a video that plays when someone calls us.

We are going to teach you how to do it if you have a mobile Huawei.

Put a video as a ringtone on your Huawei

general ringtone

If you want that every time someone calls you, it always plays the same video, the steps you must follow are these:

  1. Go to Settings> Sounds
  2. Select the option Ringtone> Video as ringtone
  3. Choose the video you want from those you have stored on your mobile
  4. You can see a preview of how the video looks
  5. Click OK

Ringtone

If the video has been recorded vertically, you will be able to see how when they call you it will appear occupying the entire screen. On the other hand, if the video is recorded horizontally, they will appear at the top and bottom two black stripes so that the video is not distorted.

Assign a video to a contact

There is also the possibility that you do not want to use a video as a ringtone always, but only when a specific person calls you. To do this, you only have to assign said tone to the contact you want, which you can do through the following steps:

  1. Go to the Contacts app
  2. Find the contact you want to add the video to
  3. Enter the Default Tone section
  4. Choose Video as Ringtone
  5. Select the video what you wish

In this way, the tone that we have chosen will be available only for the contact that we have selected. When any other person calls us, the tone will be the one we have assigned as default.

What if my mobile is not Huawei?

The operating system used by Huawei mobiles is Emui, which is based on Android but has a customization layer. Therefore, it has some options that we may not find on other devices. Some other brand may have a similar option for you to use a video as a ringtone, but the process may be a little different. It must be remembered that this is not an Android function, but something specific to the Chinese brand.

Are there any downsides to using a video as a ringtone?

The only problem you may run into if you want to use a video as a ringtone is that, as it plays every time you're called, it may consume a bit more battery.

But it is something that can only be a problem if you receive calls very frequently. If this is not the case, in principle you should not have any major difficulties.
