Huawei unveils the Honor 8 with dual rear camera, 4GB of RAM

11 July, 2016
The camera setup is eerily similar to that of the much more expensive P9, but the chipset is a step down.

          RAY, 12 Jul 2016i feel disspointed with huwawei. i brought the p9 last week... moreThats been the case for the past 3 generations tbh.
          The p8 was expensive, the honor7 was about the same for half the money.

            There is one more thing, that blows competition away in honor 6 and 7 models, thats is dual sim dual active feature, a hope model 8 will have it also. Im still using honor 6 and its perfect for my needs, there is no oder lineup i could change it.

                Am I the only one here or someone else also agrees this phone just feels more balanced than Huawei P9, for the price and overall build quality?

Go and look at the benchmark tests again, Mate 8 doesn't even come close to S7. Huawei fanboy. I don't what you're smoking but it's obvious that you can't even think properly.

                          oh man! don't worry about the copying of the dual camera because sooner or later all the mobile phone companies will copy dual cameras including the greatest like samsung and iphone ha ha ha!!!

                                Weak gpu...until "Hawaii" steps up their game and give us Kirin's with performance on par with snapdragons, i won't buy one.

                                  Wyyy no 2k screen IPS shame :(

                                    GPU performance of the Kirin 950 might be weaker than Exynos 8890 or Snapdragon 820, but works just fine for 1080p gaming. But I think Kirin chipsets (and Mediatek too) should balance CPU and GPU performance, because a strong CPU and a weak(ish) GPU could mislead customers.

                                      This is one of the fastest devices if not the fastest out there. At least it was faster than a Galaxy S7 Edge with Exynos chip in my personal speedtest.
                                      The GPU is weaker but overall should be fine, too.
                                      Do some research before talking trash.
