This phone is average at best. Said to be an attempt to compete with the top makers, it under achieves greatly. It can do many things similarly to more wellknown brands like Apple and Samsung, but it overheats rediculously easily and the battery life doesn't last even half f what promised if you have a few apps running on background. Also, if you leave anywhere where the temperature might go below -5ºC (23ºF) because this phone is useless in cold weather. The power might be at 50% or more when the phone suddenly shuts down and won't charge even with an external battery.

Of course being a Huawei phone, it's cheaper than the top selling names, buy you had better be prepared to pay for that price difference in the usability. As I stated before, the battery is the worst part of the phone, and I am not a fan of the idea of not getting my hands on it when I like, because the back doesn't come off without extreme violence.

To me, this phone is just a spare phone to use when my better phone breaks and I don't have money to get a new one yet. Definitely nothing more.

        This mobile bends on its own after upgrading to Marshmallow.
        I bought two Huawei p8 lite mobiles from Media Market in Sweden, in a scheme/offer, both of them bent on their own, no falling or pressing.
        There is a manufacturing defect, but company do not accept it.
        Seriously recommend, do not buy this mobile, even its cheap, because money shall be wasted.
        Bot of them bent on first day. I would never buy it again.

                    Okay let me tell you the truth about this phone every thing works fine HOWEVER it's A octacore phone but only 4 cores work but why you're asking well the other cores are just sleeping no matter how much the first 4 cores work the other 4 will never work so I'm assuming that the other 4 cores are FAKE yes I've contacted Huawei but. They tell me third party apps are lying but they ain't Huawei is a lair in my opinion if I would rate this phone 10/10 all cores should work.

                      It's a decent phone I'll give it that but my bluetooth does not work and because its such a crappy no name brand phone no one has ever heard of it and no one could help me fix it. I go to the settings and turn on bluetooth and 1...2....3...4...5... turns off 1...2...3... turns back on and so on, it never has enough time to connect and the huawei website isnt any help!

                        It's worth noting, after UK OTA upgrade to Android 6.0 I had fast battery drain.

                        Factory resetting my P8 Lite UK as fixed the battery drain in Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

                        Much better than lollipop peeps.

                          Have had the phone since September 2016, I've had no problems with it so far. It's smooth, but I would suggest using another launcher on the phone, instead of the Huawei home. It's a little slow.

                          However, it's been probably the best phone I've had so far.

                                  I don't recommend it at all.Please be cautious. This phone has a well-known wifi+bluetooth chip- HI1101 - problem. Huawei never addressed the problem!

                                        Got this phone the 24th December for R189 on Flexi 200 contract with some extra cammera lenses included as extra. I have read somewere guys saying the battery drains on idle, but this is not the case anymore. (currently on Lolipop 5.1.1.) They must have fixed it as i get 2 days on a charge and have not notice draining on Idle. This is one of the better supported Huawei phones with Andriod 6 also downloadable. Good for casual games and can even play Asphalt 8, although playing gfx intense games drains the battery much faster, and would not recommend long sessions. Overall I am very satisfied with the purchase. Screen is nice, still a pretty phone, perfomance is good. 10 out of 10 at this price point.
