  • Somehow doesn't feel like a 6-inch device

  • Granular cell and WiFi data management
  • Out of this world battery life
  • Excellent directional audio recording
  • One of the best LCD displays out there
  • Android 6.0...
Cons:
  • Camera is sub-par for the price
  • EmotionUI can really get in the way at times
  • Memory management is terrible by default
  • too many apps close as soon as the screen goes off

  • Missing some huge...

The Huawei Mate 8 Android Phone

I'm cute, but I'm not this cute. Check out my flawless skin, courtesy of the Huawei Mate 8 camera. Dan : For me the Mate 8 is probably the best Android phone I have tried. I agree it's just a bit too wide for my taste, but if you want a powerhouse phablet you can't go wrong with this phone.
Pros:
  • Fantastic build quality
  • Camera is pretty good in all light
  • The phone is exceptionally fast (minus the Kindle app for some reason)
  • Amazing battery life
  • Huge 6″ screen with option to get quite a few apps or folders on launcher
  • Lots of built-in Huawei tricks like double knuckle tap to take screen...
Cons:
  • Just a tad too wide (personal preference
  • of course

  • Superb battery life
  • Well constructed body
Cons:
  • Thinness makes it difficult to handle
  • Would benefit from a stylus

Huawei Mate 8

Every time a new Huawei phone is released, there's the same question asked: Can we have this design, but without the awful software Last year, with the , that request was finally answered. No one is really asking for a Nexus 6P with awful software and in many ways that's exactly what the Mate 8 is.
Pros:
  • Lovely design
  • Great battery life
  • So
  • so speedy
Cons:
  • Shocking software
  • Inconsistent camera
  • Colours issues with the display
  • Broken Google notifications

In all, we like the Huawei Mate 8. It's beautifully designed and, for a phone this size, a pleasure to use. The sluggish performance of past Huawei flagships has been banished, and the Mate 8's battery life is very good too.
