Its called Retina Flash, as we have a front flash, which may result in one side shadow images, thats why that white colour glows up in full brightness so that the flash comes on the full face

                                  Just updated to Marshmallow (J700F), So far no bugs or issues faced thought battery seems to deplete faster, but battery standby is still good in the phone.

                                  New features: cosmetic colour changes, animation changes, screen minimization for one handed input, turn to silence, vibrate in pick up, permission changes.

                                  Overall system UI is much faster and smoother. But settings functions switching have been pushed deeper making the changes complicated. UI elements are much flatter and not to my liking.

                                  Verdict : worth the update since system speed is very good.

And you are calling me stup*d ? Do you even realize how many months are there between April and July ?
                                      Also , you are really lucky with the OS update , most other Huawei models are still hanging out there in the wild, stuck on Lollipop.
