Pros: -

- Excellent built quality
- Very fast fingerprint reader
- Good battery life
- Smooth and lag-free (disclaimer: During my usage I didn't play graphic intensive games)

Cons: -

- Official updates are slow
- EMUI - you either love it or can't stand it
- Camera is average, especially in low light conditions

Anyways, it's a good buy. I bought the phone at RM1,599 minus 12% discount at an online retailer couple of months ago, so that's about RM 1,408. So for 1.3k, I'd probably consider topping up a bit and getting a new one instead.

Buy online can get around 1.4k+ NEW set for 32GB.

Performance wise between the two (4GB version of Mate 8) is almost the same. They share the same hardware though. But, i think Mate 8 is somehow better. Plus the metal build. Sublime.

Buy Honor 8 if:

1. Want better camera. On par with P9. While Mate 8 camera is not bad at all. I think its great.
2. Small sized phone
3. Love the design.

Buy Mate 8 if:

1. Want better battery life. Obvious.
2. Large sized phone, easy for you to read. productivity, etc.
3. Don't want phone become fingerprint magnet. Metal build sturdy af.

For my money? ---> Mate 8.

no difference between the two UNLESS you do heavy gaming and if you are the type that open lots of apps at the same time. Even so, the difference that I experienced was the 4GB variation doesn't need to restart apps when u switch from the background. While, the 3GB does. Definitely will ease the overall experience though.
