Oct 12 2016 By Ketaki BhojnagarwalaHuawei has done a lot of things right with the Honor 8, and among these is the design, which is among the best we’ve seen on a phone in the mid-range segment. The fingerprint sensor Smart Key implementation is also a clever implementation, and we found it quite useful to quickly access apps and actions like a screenshot. The performance of the smartphone is smooth for the most part, barring the heating up while gaming, and the battery life is very good too. There are a few key areas wher

I enjoyed the photos clarity and cpu performance of phone. I bought at 15k Cons: *Display brightness low at day time *Average battery life *I received faulty product ( GPS not at all working) * No inbuilt video calling features via jio volte * GPU performance is average *No speed charger provided in box, normal 5v/2A charging Pros: *CPU performance is super like Snapdragon 821 or 835 *Phone design is sexy but need to carefull with glasses *Rear Camera is best under 25k, Selfie is best clarity * Finger print sensor is fast and have best button features *Display is like amoled, like deep black and perfect colour suturation. It is better than amoled and LCD display under 25k but need to sacrifice with brightness department at outdoor. * I like Emui Very much because it as many inbuilt features which is useful for me ( no 3rd party app required) waiting for Oreo update * Battery saving mood is handy . I got best SOT 5 to 6 hr. Buy according to your priority. Why I bought Honor 8 ? 1) Display. 2) Camera both rear and selfie 3) Super CPU performance like flagship level phone ( best performance under 50k phone) User interface Please give me a like, dis is 1st long review for me. Thanks
