Huawei P8 Lite

Huawei needs to get its naming conventions in order. While its premium line of “P” phones gets a new number every year (we're now up to P10), the P8 Lite keeps its name despite being an entirely new phone in the Lite range. Even more bonkers is that...

Huawei P8 Lite (2017) review

Lite in name, but not in nature

Sharp screen ; Latest Android Nougat software ; Good battery stamina

Plastic design ; Low internal storage ; No optical image stabilisation

Great to look at and sporting some impressive tech under its hood, the Huawei P8 Lite 2017 is a remarkable phone when you consider the price. The plastic design makes it feel a bit cheap, but then, of course, it is.

Huawei P8 Lite 2017 Smartphone Review

Flagship lite 2.0. Huawei's P8 lite was actually the slimmed down version of Huawei's second-last flagship phone. Nevertheless, it has now been reworked with a new design, Full HD panel, and many other improvements. Our report reveals whether the P8...

high-resolution screen ... ; ... with high contrast and high brightness ; useful battery life ; relatively high performance ; low casing temperatures ; decent primary camera ; accurate GPS module ; websites load quickly ; good configuration incl....

slippery back ; fingerprint susceptible casing ; screen's massive color tint ; front-facing camera's poor image quality ; long charging times

Although the decision to reiterate the slimmed version of the former flagship is unusual, the manufacturer has created more than just a competitive mid-range smartphone with the Huawei P8 lite (2017). Our review sample surpasses its predecessor, the...

Honor 8 Lite Review

Honor is catching up with the leftover empty spaces of the pricing by launching the Honor 8 again in a Lite variant. Honor 8 is, no doubt, one of the best

Looks As Stylish As Honor 8 ; Very Good Battery Life ; Decent Build Quality ; Fingerprint Scanner Is Accurate ; Decent Camera Package ; EMUI 5.0 (Android N) ; Bundled Earphones and Protective Case

Fingerprint Movements Aren’t Really Smooth, Fingerprint Magnet ; No Dual Rear Cameras ; No Fast Charging (Output: 5V, 1A)

We did like the Honor 8 and as far as the design goes, Honor 8 Lite picks up almost everything from its flagship variant. Needless to say, Honor 8 Lite looks very stylish in the hands due to its compact design and glass body. The battery life is the...

Huawei P8 Lite 2017 review

The 2017 edition of the Huawei P8 Lite is one of the best mid-range smartphones. Its stylish superslim design and ultra-bright hi-res display make it a nice phone to handle, and it delivers fast performance from its 8-core processor. Running Android 7,...

We're not keen on the clumsy name of the P8 Lite 2017, but we like the phone itself very much. It's a nice-looking device, with a good feel, and solid all-round performance. There's not much to dislike, although Android purists may find the UI an...

Huawei P8 Lite 2017 review: still a good vintage?

Huawei launched the P8 Lite in 2015, then the P9 Lite in 2016. And at CES this year, the Chinese company recycled an old name for a new phone with the launch of the P8 Lite 2017. Huawei, known for its confusing naming schemes, has also opted to call...

Design ; Build quality ; Price ; Ultra-fast fingerprint reader

Software interface ; Not much internal storage

The Huawei P8 Lite 2017, which was the big surprise from the Chinese manufacturer at CES 2017, is finally a classic. My biggest complaint is that the software lacks optimization, so it spoils the user experience in the end. However, the smartphone...
