      It has everything that p10 plus has, the only difference is the camera

              But my point is that Huawei doesn't have one word. When you give a quote, be it. If they'll never put 6GB of RAM, then they must never put 6GB of RAM on their phones.

                        Children behave yourself. This is a really super offering from Honor and I would say it is better than the Mate 9 which is more expensive and as good as the p10 plus which is also more expensive. Are Huawei eating their own lunch? Who cares about the S8, G6, 3T or any other phone? If you want one buy one, if you don't then don't. It is not a competition to have the "best" phone.

                        As for this being expensive, well yes it is priced higher than any previous Honor but it is also the highest spec and best built Honor. If you want Honor at a lower price point buy the 6X.

I owned S7 edge and Xperia XZ and compared it along with my colleague's Xiaomi Mi note 2. Mi note 2 is fastest (granted because of SD821 and 6GB RAM), tested on antutu, neocore, and linpack, S7 edge is always behind on all three phones despite Sony Xperia XZ only having 3GB RAM. Why? Because touchwiz that's why. lol

                              Horrible 1 camera lens? S7 has one of the best cameras out there and thats going up against other companies that have dual cameras. So if the S7 edge camera can go toe to toe with them and even exceed them that says something.

                              Heck even Google pixel doesn't have a dual camera set up and its rated as the best smartphone camera, not a Huawei device or Honor.

                                  Yes definitely, Huawei is really doing a great job. But not just Huawei, but almost all Chinese companies are doing their part, companies such as Xiaomi, OnePlus, ZTE, etc. The game is gradually changing.

                                        Fingerprint reader position is deal breaker for me. Also something in the design is not right, according to my taste. Personal opinion.
