              Hi, all! I'm so glad to be able to read reviews from REAL users of this device. I have 2 questions: Which cell phone provider do I need to be with here in the USA in order for this phone to work at its optimal range in data, voice, speed, texting and whatever else it does? Where's the best place to buy one? I am not an Android pro by any means so if there's a version of this phone that's easiest to use right out of the box I would buy it from whoever sells that version. Thanks for your time!

                      Been using the Max for 2 weeks now and am totally in love with this phone or tablet or phablet..
                      Everything functions very well. Ota updates came flawlessly and there is no lag or bugs in the software. The camera is super good, also in low light thanks to the OIS. The screen is wonderful, no pixels or dots visible, although "only" FHD. It's really bright as well and easy to use in sunlight. I also like the auto brightness mode, it works much better than in Samsung devices, where the auto mode has to be switched off in dim light. Naturally, the best thing is the size :)
                      The look and feel is premium, full Metal body, no bend gates and there is a nano coating which protects against accidental splashes etc. Max is also clearly less slippery than iPhone 6. The size is perfect, it fits to my pockets and still offers a tabletlike experience, great!
                      I can totally recommend Max to all phablet lovers, this is the real hybrid, combining the phone and a tablet and replacing both. If it only had a fingerprint scanner, it would be perfect. But even as it is, it's the best. And half of the price of iPhone 6+, Samsung Note 5, etc...

Now I can't wait to have this phone. Those who have a problem with the size should stop complaining and just get smaller phones. Why would you complain about a Range Rover or VX Land Cruiser when you are use to Rav 4, Tiguan or BMW X3? The Specs of P8 Max are just mouth-watering. Thanks to HUAWEI!

                            I forgot to mention in my review that the OTA upgrade to Android 5.1.1 went flawlessly.

                            Also the "Where Are You?" installed app worked fine in a quiet room, although I changed the default to "Howway Hinnie, Where are you?"

                              Excellent device.
                              Screen bright and sharp at 1080p...I thought that I would miss QHD, but not so.
                              Movies play without stutter and superb sound level albeit only mono.
                              Videos and camera shots are first-rate with very good low light.
                              I bought this 6.8" to replace my 8.4" tablet and 5.5" phone.
                              My only gripe, self-imposed, was to buy the Chinese version but default stuff replaced with Smart Launcher Pro, Dolphin browser and Aquamail.

                              So far the best service that I have ever bought, although not cheap at 350 quid.

I like the concept of gadgets are helping me to focus and perform better in my day-to-day tasks as well. But some new phones are packed with lots of functions that are not entirely helpful for day-to-day needs. However, Huawei and HTC are doing fine analysing these needs so far. =)

                                  Unfortunately not, as my business account is Office365-based, not Exchange-based. The P8max works great with my Office365 account, including downloading and using the full suite of Office365 applications . . .

Google Contacts and Calendar downloaded from the regular Google Play do not sync properly on the P8 Max.
