Huawei P8max - user opinions and reviews

4-months report/review from me - got it back in July at Wonda Mobile: http://www.wondamobile.com/best-seller/huawei-p8.html. I paid over £500 for it back then! The phone came unlocked but not rooted with Google Play, Gmail, Contact, Map and Calendar. I kept receiving all updates from Huawei.
The phone is still reasonably fast, not Note-5-fast, but good enough. With Android you have to get used to killing background apps regularly to keep it cool and smooth. I do not play 3D games with it often, but it handled WOT: Blitz well. Screen resolution is fine though you can see that it isn't 2K.
Its camera is the weakest link - I expect more from a mid-2015 premium device. Not impressive under low-light condition.
The metal body still looks new, the side bezel is not as smoothly finished as my iPhone 6S but it is far more scratch-resistance. I even dropped it several times on hardwood floor. The paint has come off a little inside the USB socket. The sim slot has become a little loose, but it still lines up perfectly with the body.
It is not my main phone so the 4000-something mAh battery lasts forever for me. Overall, it is still the best big smartphone or Z Ultra replacement. I may get the Mate 8 around Easter to replace it. Maybe not worth £500 but the current price is great.

Was the cheapest could find.
According to DHL it should arrive tomorrow and if that happens that would mean I received it within 6 days of ordering.
Cheers!!

Got my phone (703 version) for 3 months now:
Pros:
* superb battery life...no need to carry an extra powerbank
* 64g storage...and i have added an extra 64g sd card...easy to watch series or movies while sitting on the train or bus
* double tap to wake up screen (like my good ol nokia) ...got this with a recent update last week
* screen size...so easy to watch my mails or browsing webs
* night mode camera: very useful if you have a steady hand
* robust and solid build: has dropped my phone already 3 times but no issues
* very good screen clarity...although useless in the sun (like many other phones)
* very good reception and fast 4g lte
* no lag...and minimal bloatware
Cons:
* no fingerscan: but i have double tap to wake which is ok with me
* camera is not top range, but still more than decent...night mode is superb
* no nfc: but i have never had a need for it...bluetooth is ok with me...
* phone is slippy: dropped it many times in the beginning but an additonal plastic cover can solve this
All in all my best phone so far, and i would not hesitate to buy another phone if this phone got stolen. I have used samsung (up to note3) in the past.

The only reason why you'd like to buy this phone is its massive battery life.
Multitasking: Doesn't come closer to what you'd get with 'Galaxy Notes'
Software updates: Forget it
Weight: Heavy like hell
Build quality: Great.

Notifications of many apps aren't shown or displayed at all in spite of adjusting the settings correctly. Is anyone having same issue in P8 Max ?! Hopefully you answer my question.
