Excellent design, Spectacular camera, Very capable display
'Knuckle Sense' sometimes interferes with touch controls, Could be a little cheaper
With a very reasonable pricetag and a rather excellent camera, the Huawei P8 is a pretty compelling mid-range handset. It's not perfect, but if you're looking for quality on a budget, you could do a lot worse...
Abstract: Building on the success of last year's award-winning Ascend P7, Huawei's P8 smartphone delivers improved camera performance and surprisingly high-end craftsmanship that gives this affordable device a truly sophisticated appearance. Inside the elegant alum...
Abstract: The P8 is classy from the moment you open it – the packaging almost out-Apples Apple, but in black. It's a really high-end, out-of-box experience. Silly that it should matter maybe, but it does. However, its main attraction for me, and I would imagine for...
Abstract: James reviewed the handset in May but I wanted to add my own throughts because, at the end of the day, this is a phone which costs less than £350 SIM free. You can get it for less than that on Amazon and you can pay buttons per month if you get it on cont...
While the Huawei P8 is stylish and elegant, it is competing in a market where all the devices are now stylish and elegant.In some respects it feels like it is pandering to the fashion crowd, while in other respects it is a business phone that belongs with...
Non, standard Android interface, Hit and miss speech control, No fingerprint reader
Shop around and you can pick up a 16GB P8 for about £360 which is cheaper than the competition from Samsung and Apple. If you want a contract Carphone Warehouse is currently offering it for £21.50 a month on its own iD network. Price is really the only ad...

Attractive design, Night mode is superb, Affordable price
Light painting mode is frustrating, Software looks garish, Average performance
An attractive device that gives you top-of-the-range specs and a fantastic camera for half the price of the Samsung Galaxy S6 or iPhone. The performance isn’t as slick as its major rivals, but that isn’t a deal breaker. Especially when the phone costs ha...

Huawei has not yet converted the good try it scored with the Mate 7, but delivers a polished handset, with high-performance software and one of the best screens on the market. It's a shame about the photos; though Huawei raved about them and they do have...
Vibrant colours, Supports hi-res audio, Strong camera, Good build,
Picture needs stronger contrast, Sound needs more refinement,
For the money, the Huawei P8 is a success. You get looks, features and a performance that is just about comparable with some of the big names.It's not perfect but if you're looking for a good multimedia device that can save you some cash, it's worth inves...

The Huawei P8 represents the classiest and most capable Android from a Chinese manufacturer yet, and a strong advance from last year's P7. The hardware design is superb and it has a terrific camera. The biggest differentiator is actually quite useful: the...
