This ginormous 6-inch phone is just too unwieldy for smaller hands. It has a dim screen and a low resolution compared with other phones
Abstract: Huawei ‘s Mate 8 is a tricky device to recommend. It's difficult to justify purchasing this smartphone over any of the other 2016 flagships that have and are soon to be arriving on our shores.But, here's the thing, you don't have to do that because the Hu...
Abstract: Huawei has been making a lot of noise since the launch of the Mate 8, a phablet that screams performance targeted at the business users. The official retail unit of the Mate 8 Premium has reached our labs and its time to do a really special unboxing and I...
6-inch display in a 5.5-inch form factor, Elegant all-metal construction, Superb battery life, Good value for a flagship phablet
EMUI 4.0 may not be for everyone, Benchmark performance may not be able to compete with 2016 models, No support for 4K video recording
The Mate 8's huge 6-inch display but relatively compact dimensions should appeal to anyone who wants a larger than average screen without trading off one-handed usability. Its Full HD display and 4,000mAh battery give it outstanding battery life, and ther...
'Only' 1080p, Will be too big for some, Polarising software
The Mate 8 is pretty similar to the Mate 7. However, it still feels bold in the way it differs from the big phones from other makers. Instead of ramping-up screen resolution, it chooses great battery life instead. And it works. If stamina means a lot to y...
In short, the Huawei Mate 8 is almost similar as the Mate S but comes with a large 6 inches display. The only difference on the design of Mate S and Mate 8 is the brushed metallic design in the top and bottom panel which provides different visual experien...
Abstract: Every time a new Huawei phone is released, there's the same question asked: Can we have this design, but without the awful software? Last year, with the Nexus 6P, that request was finally answered.No one is really asking for a Nexus 6P with awful softw...
There is no such thing as a perfect phone for everyone but there can be a perfect phone for someone who is in the look for a good-looking but well performing smartphone that will match your two kinds of lifestyle – work mode and play mode. High praises fo...

With its 6-inch display, the Mate 8 is definitely sitting on the phablet category which is not for everyone. Still, the enormous display is justified by a small footprint making it smaller than most handset in this size. The home-baked powerful Kirin 950...

On paper Huawei's Mate 8 is a very good phablet. While its camera performance is a little disappointing, its beastly Kirin 950 processor, gobs of RAM and pretty face make it a phablet to be reckoned with. There is a rub however – the Mate 8 doesn't exist...
