Everyone knows how many millions of phones Apple and Samsung ship every year - they're easily the two largest smartphone manufacturers in the world. In Australia, the world's number three smartphone giant - Huawei - doesn't get as much love as it should; we're all seduced and distracted by Sony and...

Cheaper than flagship competitors; High screen-to-body ratio; thin bezels; Surprisingly good battery life

No fast charge or wireless charging; EmotionUI skin significantly alters Android; Average GPU performance

Shortly after the flagship device from Huawei, the P8, we now get the smaller sibling with the addition "lite," which sounds like a slimmed-down version. Not only is the price reduced but also the battery runtime.

Dual-SIM feature with LTE; very good voice quality; microSD slot; NFC and Bluetooth; strong WLAN performance; smooth operation; design and quality impression; decent display; good pictures; but..

video compression too high; inaccurate GPS; below-average battery runtime; display could be brighter; headset sound is average; only 2.4 GHz WiFi; battery integrated

The first thing that pulls you in is the design, which could easily have been a concept in tomorrow's world. Both the front and flip sides are perfectly flat and this 7.7mm thick smartphone has been balanced for the palm of your hand.

Recently, Huawei launched the budget friendly P8 Lite in Nepal for Rs.28,999. As the name suggests, Huawei P8 Lite is a mid-range version of the flagship P8. The P8 Lite has some astounding specs But how does the phone perform in the real world Let us find out in this review.

Huawei's Emotion UI isn't obtrusive, provides some nice customization options for an older version of Android; Good price; Nice camera options

I had some issues with reception; and a bump up in display on this phone would be great

The Huawei P8 Lite is a good phone for the price but the screen is 720p that what i do not like about it. The processor is good

The P8 Lite's surprisingly good camera doesn't quite make up for average performance and a disappointing display.

Good camera; Useful software additions

Poor display; Middling performance

Huawei's P8 is a brilliant piece of hardware that's let down by its software. The raw specs and camera skills make for a captivating handset that looks the business and doesn't cost the earth at €499 (£357), but Huawei's Emotion UI lets it down in many ways.

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

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
