i update nougat and it was working well but after some days another update release about battery enhancing and some other battery performance . but its result was totally opposite , cause after update new update it become heating up continuously, again i formate it and analyse all application one by one and i found that its own application name is phone manager was using its battery . when i delet the data of this application it become normal again . but it is not a solution because i do this on daily or after two days for better performance

I upgraded to nougut but my mate 8 wasn't charging after updating to nougut. So i had to roll back to marshmallow. Now it is working fine. Charging properly. I think it is a bug.
I googled this issue but found nothing.
I don't know why this happened to mine.

As I have used it for about couple of weeks. Set is good in almost all departments. Good battery life. No lags. Super fast performance.
Bad thing is battery wore out in 1 and half year. Service center won't just replace battery. They asked to change panel which cost much more than battery of course.
I got it replaced with local repair shop though.
My suggestion if you are looking for a long life phone. This is not for you.
If you use any phone for 6 months then get it changed then it is a superb phone.
Smooth gaming experience. Super camera.

I bought Mate 8 recently as an emergency replacement for my LG G3, with not much expectation except for the longer battery life (already know it have 4000mah battery) considering the price is quite cheap here in Malaysia- at that time I didn't know the phone released earlier in 2016, one half of a year ago but has been heavily discounted.

My, how this phone exceeded my expectation. Not only the battery last longer than I expected with around 5 hours screen on time (with 2-3 hours spent on playing Mobile Legend), I can take it off the charger in the morning and still have around 40-50% left when I go home at night after some moderate to heavy usage.

It also put similarly priced phone to shame in term of performance. Launching and switching between apps are really quick, at least for every core apps such as phone dialer and messages while heavier app such as camera will take a few seconds but once it load, switching between camera and other app is fast. Oh, it can handle popular mobile games smoothly too. My recent favorite Mobile Legend doesn't encounter any noticeable graphics slowdown issue even after playing for more than 2 hours.

Overall if you're in the market for USD300 (or equivalent) budget phone, this is the one to get. But depends on where you live, it may be hard to find now.

It turned out my battery was defective. When i contacted Huawei service center they said battery can't be replace. Whole panel needs to be replace and for that they asked 90 dollars. What the f***.
Anyway, i got it replaced with a local repair shop in 10 dollars.
Now i am thinking to replace my phone with OnePlus 3T. Wad u say?
