The editors didn't like
Camera and camcorder are less than stellar (and there is no 2160p 4K video recording)
Abstract: Huawei has released a handful of flagship phones recently, from the Mate S in September during IFA 2015, to the Mate 8 in China at the end of November. While it was exclusive to the Chinese market for a while, Huawei used the CES 2016 show in Las Vegas 2...

Feature-rich user experience, Solid screen, Premium design, Outstanding battery life
Missing fingerprint gestures, Weak split-screen multitasking, Heavy UI, Weak video recording capabilities
There's no denying that the Huawei Mate 8 is an extremely well rounded and well put together Android smartphone. The user experience is distinctive and although it isn't perfect, it works well, feels fluid and boasts enough handy and helpful features to j...
Abstract: The Huawei Mate 8 (or NXT-L29 as it is also known) asks you to make a fundamental choice about what you are looking for in a phone. Or rather, it makes that decision for you by way of its generous form factor. The Mate 8 certainly puts the 'phab' in phabl...
Outstanding battery life, Market-leading performance, Super fast fingerprint sensor, Great design, Exceptional build quality
Average speakers, Mediocre camera, Software needs a lot of work
Huawei delivers great hardware yet again and the Kirin 950 sets the benchmark for performance in 2016 but a poorly conceived user experience and mediocre camera detract from what could have been a great smartphone...
Other flagships have sharper displays, Photos could be sharper, Heavy EMUI overlay may deter Android purists
Huawei’s new flagship is a winning combination of good looks, great guts and epic endurance. I was blown away by the phone’s performance and incredible battery life, and loved the convenience provided by its fingerprint sensor. The Mate 8's display is not...

Bestinclass battery life, Solid camera with strong feature set, Clean, tight industrial design, Innovative voiceinput features
Derivative, clunky software, UI gimmicks detract from legitimate features, Pricey
It goes without saying that you can get plenty of Android smartphones for a lot less than Huawei's asking for the Mate 8. Good ones too, like Huawei's own Nexus 6P ($499+) or Motorola's Moto X ($399+). Given their streamlined software and wider availab...

Abstract: ES 2016 allowed me the chance to get my hands on the Huawei Mate 8 Android smartphone to review. It really is a beautiful device, with brushed metal edges and backing of the Unibody design give it a wonderfully uniform feel, and fairly slip-proof. As long...

Abstract: Huawei recently pierced the North American market after being selected by Google as the manufacturing partner for the Nexus 6P . Looking to capitalize on this significant design win, Huawei is shipping another flagship phablet, the Mate 8, across the Paci...
