        I bought one last week and I'd say definitely hot. The thing is super fast with the best battery life of any flagship Phablet. This is the best phone I've ever owned. Get a case though because if you drop it it will ding and dent.

          I would give it a thumb up, I have never heard about someone who films a movie on any Mate 8 o any other SmartPhone, so, I really think this is the best phone on the market right now...

                So why would anyone on this planet buy this Mate 8 when the Nexus 6P exists and is even CHEAPER? You pay more for a worse camera and the horrible EMUI? No thanks

                  On a side note, I really do hope they just shut down comments for news pages altogether, and just leave the ones for the phones themselves. It's just done more harm, misinformation and division than good things.

He argued to someone else's comment who expressed his opinion that this phone is average. And arrogantly, he asked if the other person read the full review. I posted something from the review supporting the other's opinion that indeed the phone is average.
                      So again, it seems, that you did not "study" enough.

                        I don't think this phone is amazing, but there are people who do, and I will respect them for that.

But allow me to send you back to the very important thing; the word "definition". And perhaps you think that you went to college like ... you invented the wheel?
                              So, read better, educate yourself and then comment again.

                                        You say: "the only thing average on this phone is camera and GPU"
                                        The only? Seriously Focus on the word only. How many things does a smartphone has that we focus on?
                                        For your information:
                                        1. Every "amazing" phone in 2016 will have at least CPU A72. Probably better.
                                        2. Every "amazing" phone in 2016 will have at least better GPU.
                                        3. Every "amazing" phone in 2016 will have at least better display. Brightness ony at 470. Sunlight Contrast Ratio: Average

                                        4. Every "amazing" phone in 2016 will be around the same price.

                                        Yet you call this phone amazing.
