Mate 8

Reason?

Everything as good as N6P except lack plain vanilla n quick firmware updates
Its major advantages ext sdcard n much better battery life
I had decided to sell my 128gb N6P already - 3 months old tiptop very good condition

benny888 Any suggestion from my idea if you havent buy it yet?

Planned to get my friend to buy 128gb from china or hk, anyone has info about prices in hk ? Thanks in advance

I already bought mine ( China set) n had been using it past 2 weeks
Since Msia launching 8 March just wait for it
Am sure sites such as Lazada, 11th street will offer lower prices than official retail. Unlikely directd or satugadget can match their prices

TechnoBuffalo review of the Mate 8



Some personal comments of Huawei UI :

Some users will not like the HW UI as it lacks an app drawer. I had been on the default UI for about 10 days already and seriously I do quite like it. I had given up using 3rd party launchers such as Nova, Action 3 as I found the refresh of widgets was just too miserably slow on reboot. Probably is the UI 4.0 bug or related to Marshmallow. I had never faced such issues on previous HW phones up to Kitkat/Jellybean. I had not try other 3rd party launchers besides these two
Using the default UI allows one to change to any of the large variety of themes available

The new UI 4.0 has made very great improvements vs earlier releases. Now is freaking easy to add apps into any created folder. Just select one's app and tap those app you need in one go unlike dragging each app in previous versions

I had disabled practically all the irritating notifications eg battery warning certain apps are using more power, apps using higher memory than usual etc. I feel all these are wasting system resources.
The battery life of the Mate 8 is already very very good and I easily get 9-10 hours SOT on a mix of wifi/LTE on mainly internet based stuffs

I'm come
