Huawei did not promise too much: The P10 Lite is a real alternative to the expensive, almost 600-Euro (~$636), P10 . As with its high-end relative, the mid-range convinces with an excellent build, which makes it look significantly more expensive than one would imagine considering its current street...

high-quality build; Dual-SIM; LTE and NFC; very fast 5 GHz WLAN; high-quality camera; good display; decent battery runtimes; low heat development; no throttling

no USB Type-C port; only hybrid dual-SIM; App2SD not possible; bloated firmware; not every game runs fluidly

Recently Huawei launched this year's "P" model, the high-end P10 with its Leica-branded dual cameras and a sleek metal design. However, as a high-end phone it will be outside the budget of some consumers. Therefore Huawei has also launched a cheaper version of the P10 called the P10 lite.

Huawei's Lites are not unlike Samsung's Minis. They have little in common with the flagship, save for the name prefix that is, and more with riding the hype bandwagon. Oh well, flagships are always expected to pull more than just their own weight.

Everything works fine on this phone. It's Android 7, and I just feel like they've really worked out all the little dislikes. The MicroSD card is useful for storing applications and integrated pretyy painlessly as a default storage area.

The Huawei P10 Lite is a budget version of the main Huawei P10 flagship smartphone. It shares some of the same specifications of its sibling, but it is available to buy at a cheaper price. We'll be taking a look at how the Huawei P10 Lite's camera performs.

Usually it is Huawei that supplies my review samples of its handsets, but this time Vodafone provided the model.

This phone has a serious Bluetooth flaw, streaming music from it sounds awful. I tried different apps (Deezer, Spotify) and different speakers, always with the same results - overcompressed crackling sound.

Huawei P10 Lite review: While the Huawei P10 features a metal body, Leica-branded dual cameras and a fingerprint sensor-laden home button, the much cheaper ￡299 Huawei P10 Lite has none of these traits.

Well built; Beautiful screen; Smart user experience; Decent battery life

Love this phone! Easy to use. Lots of good features. My only negative; Bought the phone because of the camera specs for the money. But I must say it's not easy to take a clear photo in non natural light. The camera settings are a bit technical for me.

Hardly a significant upgrade from the P9 Lite, but if you're sitting on an old phone and need something that's of great value then you'll want to consider this.

Fast CPU; Great value
