You can win this P8 lite phone from Huawei its easy.

Just received the P8 Max ( 3G ram, 64 GB ) this morning. It is slight smaller than my previous X1
User left space is about 54 GB
Phone comes with a factory fitted SP ( like Mate7) and a dark beige flip case
Now in midst of installing stuffs on it

Hi uncle benny, where you get the p8 max ? thank you

The design is so much better thn mate 7.

Lelong.com for RM 2160

YES the build quality is much nicer than Mate 7 and phone is very slim too

If it is paired with a fingerprint scanner,it will become more beastly.
btw its 64gb rite?

Yes is 64 GB. No Fingerprint and no NFC too. Both these UNIMPORTANT to me . Never ever used NFC in all my phones and Fingerprint just test for fun only
Comes with Android 5.1.1 by default and was recommended to upgrade to higher version when switched on

64gb internal alone makes me drool. While mate 7 still stuck at kit kat.
The size similar to Z ultra? since the bezel is kinda small.

It is infact quite similar in size to XZU except length and width is very slightly bigger only
XZU : 179.4 x 92.2 x 6.5 mm
P8 Max : 182.7 x 93 x 6.8 mm

When is these two phones gonna launch in Malaysia?
Waiting to buy mediapad x2.

P8 Max : All reviews were wrong - the main sim card is MICRO-SIM and NOT nano sim as so commonly reported. The phone easily support my Samsung Evo 128 GB Class 10 card ( exFAT format)
Only the second slot which can support an external SDcard supports a NANO simcard

Some initial benchmarks



I had been testing the phone past 4+ hours and I must say my ex Mate7 ( on KitKatt) seems to be slicker and smoother
There were initially some minor issues with certain apps - launching was slow and failed to execute properly. Restarting the phone solve these issues - it could be due to possible incompatibilities with the bigger display and Lollipop issues ??
Apps were Feedly, GReader Pro and Spot News. Well these 3 apps now run fine without problems
Multi Windows I found not supported on Nova launcher and only works on default Emoticon UI launcher
Battery life appears excellent and I recorded 3.5 hours with about 25 % battery usage - will do a more detailed testing over next few days as battery was not fully charged yet
Audio quality is sufficiently good and loud and I am very happy with it. Camera is obviously snappier than Mate 7 and the shots I consider quite good quality too

The set does NOT come with all Google stuff. Example it doesn't have Calendar and Contacts sync in the Google account. I installed Google Calendar to sync all my calendar entries with my GMail account. For Contacts initially I installed Contacts+ to sync with my Gmail contacts. However i found installing a GoogleContactsSync APK finally had the contacts in Google account settings
