Huawei P8 lite review

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

Huawei P8 Lite (unlocked) review

Without a carrier to subsidize their prices, unlocked phones can get expensive. Not so with the Huawei P8 Lite, however. At $250, £180 or AU$300, it's incredibly affordable -- it costs about the same as some high-end devices with a contract. In the US,...

The Huawei P8 Lite has a low price, a lightweight design, a sharp camera and dual-SIM capabilities.

The handset runs the rather dated Android KitKat OS, and its camera settings don't rotate when the phone is held in landscape mode.

The Huawei P8 Lite's affordable unlocked price is compelling, but the Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3 is a much better deal.

Huawei P8 Lite (Unlocked)

The Huawei P8 Lite is a classy, well-equipped Android smartphone and an outstanding value, but competition on the unlocked market is fierce.

Thin, light, and solid build. Attractive. Affordable.

Heavy-handed Android skin. Disappointing camera performance.

Camera and Conclusions Though both the P8 Lite and the Idol 3 tout 13-megapixel cameras, image quality is quite different between the two. The Idol 3's shots showed uniform sharpness and low image noise in a variety of settings. Shots taken with the...

The Huawei P8 Lite Review

Although many consumers are not familiar with Huawei, they are a company that has been selling smartphones for quite some time now. In the earliest days of the smaller Canadian carriers Huawei was one of the few companies that had smartphones available...

Ultimately, there are no bad phones, just bad prices. The P8 Lite wouldn't be a bad recommendation if it was priced a bit lower and received an update to Lollipop. While I don't know if it would be possible for Huawei to reach a price of $150, I would...

Huawei P8 lite Smartphone Review

Lite-product? 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. The device could,...

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

Buyers of the P8 lite get a solid device that convinces with a smooth operation, good voice quality and a decent screen in practice. The chassis leaves a good and pretty sophisticated impression in general as well, even though the build quality reveals...

Huawei P8 Lite Review: A Budget Phone With Some Non-Budget Features

Huawei isn't necessarily a household name in the US smartphone environment quite yet. They've been making a stronger push to get into the US market recently, but they've been a leader in the Global market for some time, as their #3 global ranking in...

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

For $250 you're really getting a good price to features ratio. The Huawei P8 Lite definitely isn't a flagship-type device, but for a budget friendly phone it will be more than enough for most people.

Huawei P8 Lite Review

The war in the 'premium' mid-range segment is ongoing and constantly heating up, as more and more companies are pushing out devices that seem to be vying for notoriety in this new, competitive space. Asus and Alcatel have been victorious in what...

Reasonable value at $249.99 outright ; All-plastic construction feels sturdy ; Camera can produce some nice looking photos ; Good call quality

Poor battery life ; Sluggish performance with even the simple stuff ; Lackluster 1080p video recording quality ; Shrill sounding internal speaker ; Poorly calibrated display

Huawei has been in the US market for quite some time now, slowly infiltrating the space with its line of entry to mid-range phones.

Huawei P8 Lite review

The Huawei P8 Lite is a cheaper version of the P8. It's still an attractive phone, but with a plastic case instead of aluminium. It has a lower specification than the P8, with a 5-inch 294ppi display, a more modest 1.2GHz 8-core processor, and a...

The Huawei P8 phone got a 5-star rating from us here at S21, but the cheaper P8 Lite doesn't offer quite the same winning combination of low cost and high spec. It's less of a style icon, with a plastic finish, and thicker than the P8, although still...
