  1. I have an Ascend Mate 2 an am thinking of an upgrade to newer, I appreciate the comparisons you have made.
    Have you compare the accessibility features? I am legally blind and need the audibility features. I find Ascend Mate 2 audibility features a bit clumsy. Are the Ascend Mate 8 audibility features any better? Most who deal with phone sales & repair are totally ignorant and clueless about accessibility features. I'm hoping you can help me find this information. For instance, it would be great to have a phone that would announce my caller even if the caller is unknown. If another uses my phone, accessibility features drive seeing people a bit crazy, so an easy on/off switch would be great.

  2. This was super interesting to watch, thank youuu! I have Mate 8 for quite some time now, and before it i had a Huawei Ascend Mate for YEARS. I've become such a fan of Huawei, and Mate 8 did NOT disappoint – this phone is an effin' BEAST. Like, seriously, it's such an amazing device – especially in terms of price, productivity, quality and its monster of a battery.

  3. The camera review clearly needs someone that can better interpret the results. High contrast doesnt mean the pictures are better. In fact it can obscure quite low dynamic range of the iphone hardware and just make the picture pleasing to look at. The mate produces finer detail on most shots with less noise but also a bit more aggressive post processing

  4. i find it funny that iphone camera is just very slightly better than mate 8 camera. in reality, mate 8 cam is far from the best cameraphones today XD i think it only means that the ridiculously expensive phone from apple really have a mediocre camera afterall hahahaha

  5. Good review, but the price difference says it all. How can this Iphone be a serious comparable. It is hugely more expensive, Apples ISO is incompatible with some applications and most apps are copyrighted and chargeable. Google Android being more versatile and without the price control of the over priced iphone. Even just the battery life and the massive price difference make the obvious winner the Huawei mate 8.

  6. Help me out! I want to buy a new phone, but I can't choose between the Huawei P9+ or Ascend Mate 8. I'm ust a student who uses its Phone om a daily bases.

  7. I have both phones , in the beginning I was very happy with Huawei and its battery but after usage I find out that is some games like skyforce there is lag and frames drop at heavy battle also the keyboard is not that good and the camera is decent but overall it's good phone but not to be compared to the iPhone ( at least till now )
