Hi Friends, Hello from Dubai.

I have been using Mate 8 64 GB since 1 month and very much happy & enthralled by its stellar performance. However, since yesterday Im having a weird issue with my Mate 8 camera. It seems the Autofocus is not working, as if it is stuck to a certain focus point. and sadly the Tap to Focus feature also not responding. Im frustrated with this problem, as im not able to take any good photos with the phone ( It used to be a amazing camera before) . Can you guys help me to resolve this problem. Thanks in advance.

Note: I have updated to the latest firmware available in Dubai.

                  [deleted post]Huawei emotion UI got a lot of bugs and problems.

                  My previous Huawei phone also like that. After lock the applications, I can receive the notifications at the beginning when the screen is locked.

                  But after that, totally no notifications at all. I need to open the application to get the notifications.

                  After using for less than two months, the phone suddenly restart automatically.

                  So I strongly recommend all of you not to buy any Huawei phones.
