It doesn't has app drawer like many other China source phones - iphone like!
Anyway app into folder in Emui is now easier - just tap app you wish from list into folder you need. Simplest n fastest implementation I had seen so far
Anyway Google had plan to do away with app drawer in Android N too!
You can also use any other 3rd party launcher eg Nova , ACTION3 - I had tested only these 2
Using 3rd party launcher will disallow you to choose the many HW themes available
The default software allows you to set permissions n notification options for all app an unseen feature in other androids I had used. Just explore it to tweak to your satisfaction

The most attractive feature of this phone is its insane battery life ...I brought this phone with me to Taipei but never use it. In 3 days battery level only drop 4% with wifi left on n phone unused. My mail n whatsapp n other
app notifications continue to work in background.
Normal daily usage I could easily get 9-10 hours SOT with a mix of LTE/wifi. In Taipei I am using my V10 as my daily phone

Note 5 for SPen if one need it
Mate 8 is my current second favorite after LG V10. In third place is Nexus 6P which I plan to sell off. Will judge how the S7 edge will fare against these 3 phones when I get it on 17 Mar

I considering mate 8 and note 5 for my wife.

The SPen is useless for us, my wife using Note 2 now but the SPen never pull out.
I using LG G3, not prefer LG V10 at this moment because worry of it battery consumption

and the LG G3 camera have to wait 1 to 3 second to continue capture in low light. This problem not exist in Samsung and Iphone.

Compare to my previous Oppo r7plus.
Huawei don't have double tap to wake screen,
don't have double fingers to adjust volume,
the short cut drag down functions simply too little.
Charging speed slower than Oppo.
Bluetooth music output sound dull and flat.

By the way, there is a search function if drag down from home screen, just how to activate this ?

Mate 8 does has double tap wake function, it just hidden by huawei. You need to root to enable it
