So tempted to get one after I tried the demo in Huawei KLCC. I'm not tried much, how's the battery life? And is it burning up when you play a game or browsing a lot on 3G/4G?

from Note 3 to Mate 8
- i'm heavy on data connection,wifi,lots of whatapp/wechat/email and video
- noticeable faster system respond based on same add on apps (no game, all is for my working purposes)
- same time unplug charger(around 7am), note 3 till 4pm or less, mate 8 till 8pm

That's great though. I wonder why Nexus 6P can't be this great. Maybe no battery saver from Huawei itself?
Thank you for the info

From note 5, in terms of device temp, I have not feel it on mate 8 after usage of one full day. Batt 100% from 8am, now 53% heavy usage on whatsapp, moderate calls, browsing & Facebook . If note 5, I may need to charge the fone now.

As for camera , may be  am not particular but still is not bad as what others complained.

The finger print feature is fast but I wish it comes with tap to wake.

Definitely great then on battery life. Tap to wake like Nexus 6P eh? I thought they implement to their latest phone.
Overall is a wow factor for what I can see to this device. Before I test the demo I thought it is the same as Huawei P8, even the demo is overheating. Boy I was wrong. Unlucky for me I missed the chance for the first 88 to get the free Talkband laugh.gif

Because Nexus 6P is using Snapdragon 810, it's not as power efficient as the Kirin 950 on the Mate 8.

The Mate 8 would've been a godphone if it had Mali T880 MP12 GPU instead of the weaker MP4 GPU.

So that's why.
I heard a lot about differences between SD with other processor, and lost to Exynos too.

How does it compare between Kirin and Exynos?

Since I just got the Nexus 6P today, I'm looking for trade with my LG V10 to get this phone.
I saw at garage sale selling for RM2050 but will receive in 1-2 weeks. Good deal though.

I will get this phone on Friday at Blue Cube if they give very attractive promotion. I hope they have the 4GB RAM version.
