Launched last June 2 in Singapore, the Huawei P8 is the latest flagship together with the phablet counterpart, the P8 Max. Check out our full review of the Huawei P8 after the break.

Price, stylish and options

Stylish; everything is good

There is no Scratch card

very good seller without thinking it twice I would go back to buy very serious and very efficient, very happy with my purchase and highly recommended for future purchases.

Huawei is getting serious with the P8, delivering some high-end specifications at a mid-range price. Breaking away from its Ascend series, Huawei has gone for a plainer moniker with the P8 but the design is anything but.

Beautiful screen; powerful processor; fine build quality; good camera; fingerprint sensor; 4G; decent battery life

Camera autofocus could be a little quicker

It's been a curious year for flagship smartphones so far: from the impressive highs of the Samsung Galaxy range revamp, with the company's S6 and S6 edge, to the oh-it's-the-same-again HTC One in its M9 form .

Affordable; majority of design is on point; tiny bezel design; microSD card expansion; camera is impressive

EMUI interface annoyances; battery life ought to be better; processor has heat and power consumption issues

Chinese technology heavyweight Huawei has been attempting to replicate its success in telecoms hardware in the smartphone market for several years. The firm started this offensive by releasing a wave of ultra-affordable smartphones with specifications traditionally seen only on handsets close to...

Premium design; decent display; good camera; moderate price

Emotion UI makes needless and confusing changes to Android

If you want an iPhone 6 without the exorbitant pricetag, the Huawei P8 is absolutely the phone for you; squint, and you might not even know the difference. It's not quite the best, but there's a lot to love, and it's safe to say that Android might just have a new member in the Big Boys Club with...

Excellent design; Spectacular camera; Very capable display

'Knuckle Sense' sometimes interferes with touch controls; Could be a little cheaper

You may not have heard of Huawei (that's ‘hwah-way', not Hawaii), but you've probably crossed paths before. The Chinese firm is actually the world's largest telecommunications company, having overtaken Sweden's Ericsson in 2012.

Vibrant colours; Supports hi-res audio; Strong camera; Good build

Picture needs stronger contrast; Sound needs more refinement

From the iPhone to a $20 Nokia, every smartphone is made in China. Motorola attempted to bring manufacturing back to the US with the launch of the original Moto X, but that ended up only lasting a year.

The Huawei P8 is this year's top-flight handset from the Chinese manufacturer, packing in a premium design that can rival the iPhone 6 but all for a relatively affordable price. Can it keep up with the rest of the flagship pack though? We fired one up to find out.

Huawei has been in the tech game for a long while, but it's only recently started to really focus on high-end smartphones; Last year's Ascend P7 was a pleasant surprise that packed in solid hardware, but was let down by its software, and that seems to be the case again.

Huawei's loaded the P8 with Android 5.0 Lollipop along with its own Emotion UI tweaks; and while the base layer of Android sometimes shimmers through; it's difficult to really get on with Huawei's tweaks.
