Huawei P8 Lite (unlocked) review: Though cheap, it lags behind competitors

The Huawei P8 Lite's affordable unlocked price is compelling, but the Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3 is a much better deal. Without a carrier to subsidize their prices, unlocked phones can get expensive. Not so with the Huawei P8 Lite, however. At $250, £180 or AU$300, it's incredibly affordable -- it costs about the same as some high-end devices with a contract. In the US, you can purchase it directly from Huawei's online store or other retailers like Amazon.

Without a carrier to subsidize their prices, unlocked phones can get expensive. Not so with the Huawei P8 Lite, however. At $250, ￡180 or AU$300, it's incredibly affordable -- it costs about the same as some high-end devices with a contract.

Priced at just $250, the Huawei P8 Lite is a good entrant in the budget-friendly smartphone space, but it does fall short in some key areas when compared to its competition.

Huawei P8 Lite (Unlocked)

The P8 Lite is to the Huawei P8 what Apple's iPhone 5c was to the iPhone 5s . The core experiences are largely comparable, with some performance concessions and design tweaks in the name of affordability. Unlike its fancier sibling, the P8 Lite is fully banded for U.S.

Hands on: The Huawei P8 lite -- unlocked, inexpensive, and not bad

The P8 lite is not the most inexpensive phone on the market today. For example, Motorola's Moto G also offers a 5-in. LCD display but with a slower processor, less memory and without LTE capabilities for $180. So it all depends on what you're looking for. In this case, Huawei's foray into the U.S.

Huawei P8 Lite (Unlocked) Review

The Huawei P8 Lite is a classy, well-equipped Android smartphone and an outstanding value, but competition on the unlocked market is fierce. The P8 Lite is to the Huawei P8 what Apple's iPhone 5c was to the iPhone 5s ( at Amazon) . The core experiences are largely comparable, with some performance concessions and design tweaks in the name of affordability. Unlike its fancier sibling, the P8 Lite is fully banded for U.S. use, and it's available for just $249.99 unlocked. It's a tremendous smartphone value and an especially alluring option for Android fans that prefer the iOS aesthetic. But competition on the unlocked phone  market is fierce, and the Alcatel One Touch Idol 3 ($249.99 at Amazon)  remains our Editors' Choice thanks to its beautiful display and better camera output. Design, Features, and Call Quality Without reference, you'd be hard-pressed to tell the P8 Lite apart from the P8 ( at Amazon) . It ditches the metal and glass accents for an all-plastic construction, but the faux-brushed aluminum look is quite convincing at first blush.
