To be honest, it's the best phablet.
Great design with high quality
Big battery, RAY and ROM
High quality audio output
FM radio
Dual SIM
Fast and smooth
Excellent finger scanner
What do some people want more than it?
I am waiting for it to be launched here in Afghanistan.
Chen, 28 Jan 2016- low quality (not all Chinese products are low quality, you need to get out more) - unknown ... moreDo you know famous motolora,nortel,lucent?they are killed by huawei in the telecommunication market, that is simple that huawei eat up their cake.
AnonD-87500, 29 Jan 2016it's funny how by having full HD on 6" display considered low-res these days :DWell do the math...6 inch and 1080p makes how much ppi?
it's funny how by having full HD on 6" display considered low-res these days :D
Huawei Mate 8, an unmatched high-end vibe.
Design, even more refined.
Battery, the best in flagship, In a single word - splendidly.
Browsing time, none of the major competitors comes even close.
CPU, OOMPH!!!
GPU, can play every game.
Display, above "Retina" resolution and better than any regular IPS LCD,
excellent contrast ratio.
Loudspeaker, better than iphone 6s+.
Audio quality, Amazing.
Camera, fixable in software, as the camera improved after an OTA update arrived the day after, but still better than iphone 6s+

Everything human ever complain over the phone for 2015 ARE HERE
Now i know why google choose them for Nexus, well job done company that come from average to the TOP
Im not a fan of Huawei yet (simply because of removable battery) but i must admit and give proper credit to this company.
good job Huawei!!!
Anonymous, 28 Jan 2016It's what 70-80% of people want, including meI respect your personal opinion about big phones.But please dont imply that 80% of the people likes them.Big screened phones are widely aviable just ~2 years on the market,and since most of the people dont swap their phones every 6 months or so,big portions of the sell went to early adopters and people who just wanted to try something new.I personaly dont believe in this trend,as i know few people who are literaly stuck with their overly big phones (because of contract or unwilingnes to burn money on that),but they always admit that their phone is "just to big" for them,and next time will get something smaller.
P.S.i've just read the rumors for the new ip6c,so there is clearly a strong demand for 4" phones despite what all "market researchers" said ; )

good quality, well known brand, non android, price bellow 99.
what's up with the FM Radio, almost all of huawei smartphone got it, yet it is barely used.

6.33 inches and many many great specs. It's a Mate 7/8 with USB C, a camera that's probably equally not impressive (but with 4k recording), a QHD screen, and arguably a battery life not as amazing.
its perfect
Anonymous, 28 Jan 2016Because there are people willing to buy a "big" phone. Not everyone wants a 4-inch mini version.*cough* iPhone 6C *cough*
Hey team GSMArena, no mention of whether it heats with heavy Apps and Games or not?

My mate7 is perfect as it is, but im itching for that 6.5in (held the p8max and almost fainted due to how big it is) since i do a lot of my work on my phone as well.
bobby21, 28 Jan 2016Why do they built so big phones?It's what 70-80% of people want, including me
i was an owner of the mate 7 , s6 and s6 edge z5 premium and on the other side i have te 6s plus but the best android was the mate 7 . and the mate 8 is better i will buy it 100%
Anonymous, 28 Jan 2016software is meh. Hardware is good.nothing wrong with the software. it packs more features than touchwiz and stock Android. it feels even better than cyanogen OS in control over the system. it is much easier to use. I am a honor user and never felt anything wrong with the way apps are organised. actually it feels better.

No thanks!i own a huawei device and it is of good quality and durability. I get regular software updates for Android in my honor 7. even low pricer honor 4x is getting regular updates.
I hope your other arguments were just troll or jock. most of the USB sticks branded as companies like Vodafone is actually huawei. most telecom companies in the world buy huawei equipments to bring signal to you. those specs and the good reputation of huawei on quality and durability to everyone other than pure rasists justifies the price

dasman, 28 Jan 2016Great Hardware on the CPU Side...but only decent GPU. Although I think the Kirin 960 will be j... moreConsidering that they've developed everything in-house and was able to catch up (just not quite there yet) to samsung and qualcomm only after a few years, it's a pretty big feat. Goes to show how much samsung and qualcomm are sandbagging their own chips, either that or Huawei's putting in a lot of overtime to play catch up.
