Huawei Mate 8
Although Chinese manufacturer Huawei still can't claim much in the way of brand recognition, it's expanded its reputation in the US and UK with every release. That's down to the eternally appealing equation of more for less: the company offers high-end hardware at affordable prices.
Pros:
- Great fingerprint sensor
- Gorgeous large display
- Strong battery life
Cons:
- Emotion UI overlay
- Fast charging cable not in the box
- Ugly speaker grill

Huawei Mate 8 review
In many ways, the Mate 8 is an excellent smartphone. It has a big, high-quality screen and is well made. It isn't the most stylish of phones, but it's fast (unless you're talking about games) and has decent battery life.

The Huawei Mate 8 left a very good impression during our review with its noble chassis and the high performance. It is quite a big device with its 6-inch display, but the handling is still comfortable thanks to the thin frame.
Pros:
- great case
- bright display
- excellent performance
- very good battery runtime
- dual-SIM
- memory expansion via microSD
- fingerprint scanner
- no bloatware
Cons:
- high color deviations of the display
- bad front camera
- high price
- mediocre GPS
- slight throttling under sustained load

The Mate 8 is the first smartphone to use Huawei's 16nm HiSilicon Kirin 950 octa-core chipset, which uses a quad-core 2.3GHz Cortex A72 and a quad-core 1.8GHz Cortex A53. The GPU is a 900MHz Mali-T880MP4m, which is the same GPU found in Samsung's new Exynos 8890-equipped Galaxy S7.
Pros:
- 6-inch display in a 5.5-inch form factor
- Elegant all-metal construction
- Superb battery life
- Good value for a flagship phablet
Cons:
- EMUI 4.0 may not be for everyone
- Benchmark performance may not be able to compete with 2016 models
- No support for 4K video recording

Time-saver edition
Great as it may be, Huawei's high-end phablet is not perfect, and you'd better be aware of its flaws, even if you choose to ignore them. The camera could use plenty of improvement, and the Android overlay is a love-it-or-hate-it affair.
