When I was still deciding which unit to get given my budget and research, it was whether to choose Huawei or Samsung. I decided to go with Samsung, in particular Samsung A6 (2018).
A6 has a great design and size for my purpose (mainly for calls and emails, no games at all).
Comparable Huawei units at the price of Samsung A6 (which is about USD 271 as of July 2018 for the 32GB variant in the Philippines) for me just don't feel right. My personal preference is that -- should be around 5.5" in screen size, should not indicate brand name at the front, and finger sensor should be at the back. At the mid-range level, this is not possible with Huawei.
-------------------------------------------------
On to Samsung A6, I noticed that it feels slower than my old Huawei GR3 2017 (AKA P8 Lite) which for me has a snappier UI. I just addressed this in my A6 by doing the following steps including among others:
- removing/ disabling Samsung bloatware
- removing widgets at the home page (I think this consumes some memory and battery power)
- minimising the fading effects in transitions by turning on the Developer Options in the Settings, and setting the "Window animation scale" and "Transition animation scale" to 0.5x
After the above (among other streamlining steps), my Samsung A6 now feels snappier/ faster. Nonetheless, I still prefer the Huawei UI in general.

Anonymous, 18 Jun 2018My eyes care.That was a sarcasm, you know in 2018, 300 (or 250) euros and HD+..
Then again, S8, maybe is little older, but that last year flagship have way better resolution than HD+ (if you set) and for similar price. If is a Samsung branding a must have on phone.
Even S9 is 400-450 euros only, now.
This is a good low end device for 2018, just price is maybe to high (150-180 euros is more apeling).

Anonymous, 17 Jun 2018Just wondering what the use of A serious of Samsung since the S7/S7 Plus S8/S8 plus and even S... moreAlthough I would not recommend this phone to anyone, I know the phones you mention are not priced the same across the world, therefore you can't always expect to get let's say an S8 for the same price as an A8 (2018).
In the US this is possible because lots of high end phones are sold through carriers and rebates are still a thing, you can pick mint shape iPhone 7 for 350 USD or a mint shape S8 for around 400.
No way I'd recommend an S7 these days. Most of these phones have a tired battery (unless you purchase a new one, which won't be that cheap after all) and are nearing the end of the road for updates. I'd gladky pick an A5 or A7 from last year or maybe a regular A8 though, those enjoy great SW support from Samsung and are not that expensive anymore. Of course there are lots of value priced options from other brands that are worth looking for
