Huawei P8 Lite (2017) - User Reviews

  • Still a very very good phone. Love this phone.

  • SE Is Excellent But Screen Is Real Small For 2019, I Used To Use SE Before I Sold Last Year Due To Screen Size, Snappy & Fast But Front Camera Is Same As 5S/6 & IOS 13 Might Be The Last For SE. Most High-End Game Will Be Compatible With This Small High-End Flagship & It Have A High Benchmark Score.

  • so how's iphone SE going? i own this huawei but now thinking of switching to SE

  • Good Device Except For The Low Memory!

  • Go to Huawei service centre. I face same problem but now it is fine.

  • Am in to phone buy n sallin n repairing for like 7ys now, I lie not, This phone is super good I will advice any n everybody to go for it with full assurance, is a nice phone with super battery

  • I have PRA-LX1 8.0.0.384(C02), will it get Pie update, but it's a good midrange phone I'll say

  • Great phone, had it for 2 years and battery is still very good.

  • Huawei doses not provide Service for this device anymore. It's out of their update cycle, it doesn't even gets security updates anymore. It was released as a midrange device in 2017 with Android 7 it got updated to 8 and that's it. (Huawei midrange standard is 1 Android update and 2 years security)

  • Been using the phone for 2 years, it's not really good, the battery drains very fast at 20% after 2 years of use, performance is also not very good, sometimes I would have to force restart the phone because it would randomly freeze or would be very laggy. If you're looking a phone for 170-180 Euro, get the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.

  • not a very good phone, i got an iphone se used for way cheaper and it still beats it with video/design/quality.

  • P8 2017 is nicely phone

  • Very nice phone but also no updates since January 2019. I am from South Africa too. What the hell?

  • P20 lite

  • When will p8 lite 2017 get the EMUI 9.0 update

  • So, in the end do you think this phone will receive Android 9.0 EMUI Pie 9.0 or not? EMUI 9.0 from GSMArena info gives me hope that it will be received

  • I'm also stuck on the January security patch. I'm in ZA btw

  • When will this device get the emui 9 update

  • When will this device get the emui 9 update

  • Same here, I'm actually going to roll back to Android 7 in a few days, I need my proper battery back

  • Did any one knows what is the range length of the proximity sensor

  • After updating to Android Oreo, the battery would drain really fast after 20%, and when it dies, when i put it in charge, it says 10-20%, and it charges very fast like in 2h, sometimes even in 1h from 0% to 80%

  • Yes I have same problem after updating Android to 8... It drains fast and shuts down at 30-40% you put it on charger it says it still has battery... (It also charges fast...) My battery usage graph looks like EKG

  • What is the latest security patch for Huawei P8 lite 2017? Im stuck at January security patch

  • No

  • That's to much when will we receive updates????

  • did anyone there have a problem with the battery life? 100% battery after 15 minutes use, lowbatt again automatic shutdown when you charge again and open its already 90% battery sorry for the grammar

  • No, The P8 Lite (2017) will not receive Android 9.0 (Pie)

  • The fhone is very good. I have been using it for two and a half years. 😀

  • Huawei P8 lite 2017 will it recieve Android 9.0 Pie?

  • Did the gr3 2017 has volte options or no ?

  • I think the phone has such a problem. It has corrupted all SD cards I inserted into it except one. Please any solution??

  • Cheers will deffo be getting one or the other for her

  • P20 Lite,or even P30 Lite

  • Same my last android security patch is for February haven't received March and April

  • My girlfriend has had the p8 lite 2017 phone for the last 2 and a half years she loves it and has not had any problems with it even I've been surprised with it only being a lite phone. But she is now wanting to upgrade possibly another lite version. Does anyone have any suggestions for other lite versions that work as good as or as better than the p8 lite 2017

  • my phone freezes up for like 4 hours, what is wrong with it.

  • reformat your phone. mine is same model with you. i also not getting an update. but when i reformat it, update pops up for android 8. emui8

  • Why is the volume not great even with speaker on

  • Same my last android security patch is for February haven't received March and April

  • It will, I'm also sure around Q3 of this year

  • EMUI 9

  • Exspect what?

  • Expect Q3 2019

  • Did anyone recieve google security patch March or April for Huawei P8 lite 2017?

  • I also text Huawei and they told me that Huawei P8 lite 2017 wont recieve EMUI 9.0

  • How I texted them and they told me the phone won't receive it?

  • Confirmed from Huawei?Good news.Maybe expect beta test soon

  • what world do you live in? comparing iphone with this phone makes me believe that you've been stuck on a dumb phone until now. This phone is superior, if i got android p and q i'd never switch from this phone. got 128gb sd card for it and memory problem has been solved. 2 years and still working like it did on the first day.

  • Apparently it's getting the EMUI 9. Texted Huawei and they said it's compatible

  • Had mine for two years too. I gave it to my mum and switched to the Mate 20 pro; it still runs like new!

  • Had mine for the last two weeks. The battery gets tired fast (if you are in too games or just browsing). The screen is terrible (cant see from diffrent angels - with or without sun) Its ok as a budget phone - though it dont fulfill my needs. I miss my sony's

  • Great budget phone. Has all the basics you would need in a modern phone, and runs smoothly. Had mine for 2 years and not a single problem

  • what the emui9 for, I mean whats the use

  • Im using Huawei P8 lite 2017 PRA-LA1 8.0.0.398(C185). Any software updates for this phone?

  • Actually if you read the specifications section of this phone in gsmarena they have kind of written it's upgradable to emui 9

  • Are you sure that phone will get EMUI 9.0?

  • I have also not yet received any updates for P8 Lite 2017 since January 2019. When I search for system updates, it keep saying "No updates". In the past I have received at least one update per month.

  • You should update, it's mostly probably android security patch

  • Am from kenya

  • i got a system update. should i install PRA-LX2 8.0.0.361 (C636)?

  • There is a GPU Turbo update for this phone

  • From what country are you?

  • Am waiting for the March security update, already got the February one

  • it eats up almost 90% internal storage gb upgrading to oreo

  • Im using Huawei P8 lite 2017 .Still waiting for February and March security patch update. Im from South Africa. Any one els waiting for updates?

  • Chech Huawei share, mirror share, hotspot, share it app (if its installed) and make sure they are off and they dont scan every now and then

  • Same problem.. If its not a high speed sd card it will be damaged then burned sooner or later.. Just buy a high speed one

  • Works fine, pubg, asphalt +music + msngr all together smooth... Nice phone and battery lasts for 5+ pubg games

  • Im using Huawei P8 lite 2017 will there be a update to Emui9?

  • I don't think this is possible.

  • it wont receive android 9... this is a midrange phone and already received one major upgrade still a great phone though

  • I received February security patch today, hope they updated this phone to Android 9 pie

  • Finally just got an oreo update last night.

  • The phone is now upgradable to Android 8.0 Orio through OTA. Check out for it Goto settings > system settings >system update > download latest full package. I recommend u use wifi connection to download it and your battery level should be above 80% Thank you.

  • How can i find guest mode.. Or change users in this phone?

  • Got Oreo update with EMUI 8.0 months ago. Pakistan

  • I got android 8.0 with emui 8 Sri lanka

  • Mine was still at EMUI version 5.0.1, Android version 7.0, Android security patch level 1 May 2018.

  • PRA-LX2 from Pilippines still not having an oreao update. Am I the only one here? Or should I update it manually but I don't know how I'm afraid something bad might happened after.

  • Yeah mine too especially near the speakers

  • Pra-lx2 Malaysia i received the gpu turbo update with December security patch today

  • log in

  • Telkom version 8.0.0 build no. PRA-LA1 8.0.0.394(C185)

  • which network did you get your device from & what version of Android is it running & build number? thanks

  • Me too, received January security patches. Nothing new

  • I have Received January security update PRA-LA1 8.0.0.402(C185), still no android 9.0

  • Using the December security patch in South Africa

  • Pra-lx2 Malaysia can anyone tell me what's the latest security patch? Mine is still at November 2018

  • My Huawei p8 lite 2017 back cover is starting to slowly open somehow I keep pushing it down and it goes up over and over anybody experiencing this problem?

  • Yes it is. I once used it to install updates and no errors were occurring on the device, ran smoothly

  • Philippines hasn't, well at least on my device, still on April's patch (LX2 here) is it safe to download form the firmware finder?

  • Look it isn't that bad in gaming but I would suggest for u honor play.

  • hows gaming performance on this? any first hand experience on this topic?

  • Received December security update PRA-LA1 8.0.0.397(C185), still nogpu turbo

  • In South Africa. Did you get it by now?

  • for those who received the gpu update, how is the performance now when compared to before? does the Huawei firmware finder app still work?

  • I just ordered, I hope I enjoy it

  • Which country you live?

  • Really not a bad smart phone but storage is really small for the power it has, not best camera but it's normal, not best sounding for the price but still it's okay. One problem that I had with this phone is that it burned 2 SD cards, don't know that's phone's problem or the SD cards where bad.

  • I've experienced it when airplane mode is on. Maybe the recent update has something to do with it

  • Why am I the last one to get any update 😂😂

  • True I got my GPU turbo today

  • idk what's going on, but my Bluetooth keeps turning on by itself every couple of hours

  • So we should also be patient

  • I got the GPU turbo update yesterday

  • Pra-la1 version I've had this phone for more than a year and to be honest this phone is amazing and when I received Oreo 5 months ago it performs much better than nougat I hope it recives android pie and GPU turbo.

  • Hi there I bought this phone almost 2 years ago and when I purchased it i had the intention to add second SIM card , well this day came and I decided to add another sim instead of the micro SD but nothing happens literally,As if it does not the second sim. my model is the LX one

  • I am using this phone (PRA-LX2) and I haven't received any updates. Still running on Nougat (Android 7.0), and May security update. Any information regarding updates on my phone guys? Btw I'm from the Ph. Thanks!

  • the android 8.0 oreo released for this phone...Enjoy! :D

  • I've received November update yesterday but it's only security updates and no gpu turbo, PRA-LA1 8.0.0.393(C185)

  • I have received October and November updates. Just relax and you would soon receive yours. Personally, I think this is one of the best devices in terms of updates, if only it has no security implications.

  • I guess we'll have to wait. I'm still stuck on the September security patch. No updates available

  • No I haven't received it yet. But I firmware finder says the next update includes gpu turbo and it also removes limitation in screen recording. I have the November security patch

  • Yes but I haven't gotten mine. Did you or anyone receive the gpu turbo update? My software changelog information is also empty after I reset my phone. wonder if that's normal or will disturb me from getting software updates

  • Well for now it looks like we are getting gpu turbo update

  • Huawei sent me a message. Said they still testing Android 9 to see if it will run smoothly without damaging the device. So we can be patient

  • No i dont think

  • I have got the Android 8.0 oreo update about 2 mounth ago in Iran

  • Haha really Iphone 4s? Weird

  • This phone will get the pie update, just be patient!

  • Last night i have got the android 8.0 oreo update for honor 8 lite in Pakistan. PRA-LA1 (8.0.0.367(C185)-FULL

  • I believe this information is wrong. Phones above mate 10 were given first priority but that doesn't mean phone's below it won't receive the updated.Then again Huawei also happens to be one of the largest Android OEMs, know for updating most of their Android phone even the mid-range phones.

  • I think you should go to the official Huawei website and download it manually.

  • I haven't received oreo update yet, I am from the philippines. I wonder when.

  • WTH?!

  • No i dont think so because even the mate 10 lite wont get the update only phones above mate 10 are getting it (as for confirmations till now by huawei.

  • If i may ask which countries have not yet received Oreo update

  • I really enjoy this phone, however I can't take any photo's as it is constantly blurry, there is no plastic or anything covering the lens and it is clean, can't seem to fix it, any advice?

  • I think yes

  • How did you update?

  • Some countries doesn't have the Oreo Update, maybe just maybe they will update to Pie

  • Will this phone be getting android pie update.

  • Yes it has NFC... Who told you that not? :S

  • Will this phone be getting android pie update.

  • I will buy this phone, it's price and specifications impress me!

  • You will first need to root your Android OS. Download a build.prop editor or use a root file explorer. Locate /system/build.prop, open it, and add this line: ro.host_usb=true. Save your changes reboot, then install a USB OTG device. Your device will now recognize the OTG. I've personally done this on a Huawei Y6, Y6 II, and a P8 Lite, and have confirmed it working. So, to answer your question fully, I know of no way to enable OTG without root.

  • this phone supports USB OTG

  • Huawei P8 Lite(2017) design is better ,but performance is better in Samsung galaxy S5

  • excellent phone

  • iPhone is rubbish

  • Oh no I'd rather have a iPhone 4s than this (which I have and I also hate it)

  • Nice smartphone, cheap & strong specifications.

  • Experienced it after I got the July security patch. It became blazingly fast again after I installed the September patch.

  • I have never experienced any fingerprint problem and it's working very well

  • It's already has

  • Yes, after oreo update there is hard recognizing. I don't know what to do

  • Camera is better in Samsung, but p8 is faster because of cpu and 3GB RAM.

  • any thoughts between this and samsung s5? which is better?

  • Does anyone facing fingerprint not recognizing issue or hard time recognizing fingerprint?

  • will it get the oreo update or something?

  • Camera app loads in just a second for me. It used to take more time. But Oreo made it faster

  • I have being using P8 Lite 2017 for the past 8 month - what I want to know is the call+ is it applicable on this model or not.

  • They didn't lie, the feature is market dependent.

  • I am using this phone 6 months ago... I had to say it's awesome, I couldn't believe it first because of it's low price .... Nice performance, nice display, suitable size....if you wanna buy go for it.

  • This phone not have nfc it is big problem because the company pretend he have nfc but unfortunately not have NFC

  • Dun buy this phone as it is under performing. It is super lag and you need to wait 10-20 secs for the camera ready mode. Terrible!

  • I have had this phone 6 months, flat out terrible. Intermittent performance, freezes on simple things. Just a buggy god awful phone. My first Huawei, never again.

  • Display quality is very good.

  • Hello guys! I am asking about the display quality of this smartphone...is it good or bad?

  • I am using this mobile since 6 months...I have to say it's awesome....nice display, nice performance overall.

  • Serious

  • Any one got oreo for pra-lx1c440b180?

  • Bad model memory low 16Gb 6gb hidden

  • This is my previous comment plus more info: So hi! I got the Android 8.0 update yesterday, and so far it's kinda good! My device is Huawei GR3 2017, model PRA-LA1, Build Number PRA-LA1 8.0.0.361(C185), i'm from Lebanon and i didn't have that high hopes to recieve the update but i did, so have faith and courage, don't give up! The software can be buggy or laggy sometimes, but it's pretty gppd and stable in my opinion! Make sure to back up your photos with Google Photos or Drive and backup your personal data just in case though to not lose your data, it didn't happen to me though The update is 2.49 gbs i think so be sure to free up some storage before updating. After updating Lords Mobile and another app were installed without me doing anything, but you can uninstall them, also an app called Tips is added! The update brings all the Oreo features i think, and this yime the Oreo easter egg aka the oreo octopus is playable and working and accessible! Picture In Picture, or PIP, is working, but it does not work woth Youtube, even if accessed with Chrome, i think it can only work with Youtube Red and in the USA i think. It works though if you play videos on vimeo aka on sites other then Youtube, just go full screen and press the home button after playing the video and it should appear at the bottom off the screen, you can even open another app or even two apps in split-screen plus the PIP vid! (ex: watching a vid on Lifehacker.com, then going full-screen, pressing the home button, then opening g-mail, the going split-screen and opening settings, all the while the vid is still playing in the bottom!!!! Otherwise The new navigation dock is also good, and there's an option to hid the navigation bar in the bottom for more space, you can make it reappear by seiping up from the big bottom bezel chin from the huawei logo to the screen, pr even navigate with just the new navigation dock with no navigation bar for increased screen space at all times! Althought it might get some used to along with your typing cz the keyboard will be lower, but i think you can readjust the keyboard's high in the settings!

  • So hi! I got the Android 8.0 update yesterday, and so far it's kinda good! My device is Huawei GR3 2017, model PRA-LA1, Build Number PRA-

  • Just got oreo.soo fast.it beat my iphone 7 plus easily

  • Got oreo in eastern europe, pretty good

  • Just updated to 8.0. Didnt received notification to update but when a made the manual search, it was available.

  • Making this phone charging in 3 hours is a nightmare...Daamn! I'd rather prefera phone with froyo charging in less time than having a phone with oreo charging in 3 hours..come on Huawei..Really!!!!!

  • I received the Oreo update just a few hours ago, so awesome!

  • I finally received Android 8.0, I am very pleased with it! PS: I am from România!

  • Anyone received Oreo update pra-la1 in Egypt?

  • I've Huawei GR3(2017) Yesterday I have found my phone updated to Android 8.0.0 Model:PRA-LA1 8.0.0.1.361(c185)

  • Any one get Oreo for pra-lx1c440 in Serbia?

  • I am from Moldova ang i have Oreo

  • I am in Egypt and still no pra-la1 update:-[

  • Yes I get OREO yesterday PRA-LA1 (Caucasian region) It was 2.44 GB 8.0.0.360(C10)

  • Anyone received pra-la1 OREO

  • Everyone will get it. It's sent by random IMEI numbers so it may take a while to get it though OTA. I have 2 phones and they took it at different time. The one got it on 2 July and the other one on 9 July.

  • it actually is available and the build number is 360.and Huawei support told me it s being sent randomly and in patches .I'm usually the last person who gets these updates and don't wanna wait and gonna download the rom and install it

  • Still waiting for the for the update ota

  • Oreo is on Firmware finder/ approved for download, yay.

  • Any one get oreo for pra-lx1c440b180?

  • i got 8.0 oreo update today

  • Yeeeees I get oreooooo 2.44 GB PRA-LA1

  • If its not available through OTA then its not available in your region. I also checked through HiSuite on my pc and still haven't received the update. Hoping it comes sooner.

  • No, PiP doesnt work (for me at least). Do not confuse it with the split screen, they are 2 different things. The PiP is available on Android Oreo only, the split screen is available on Nougat.

  • Got update b363, on c432 device, PIP works (although it seemed to work with emui 5.0.3 either), font change works, new fonts could be added with 3d-party apps, app shortcuts works too.

  • I have PRA-LA1 C10B180 (Huawei P8 Lite 2017 16/3 Caucasian region) It will get OREO?

  • I have c185b220 too. And Oreo rom is available for our region and can be downloaded but I don't know why it isn't available through ota yet

  • pra-la1c185b220

  • I got the Oreo update yasterday in egypt

  • Currently downloading the PRA-LX1 8.0.0.360(C432) update with Oreo 8.0. I'm from Southern Europe region.

  • What is your code name for your phone? My is pra-lx1c440b180

  • Any one got oreo for pra-lx1c440

  • App shortcuts exist :). About the picture-in-picture mode it exists too but it doesnt seem to work...

  • If you can't get any update (up to b210) go to update menu in settings and after the initial update check, click on the three dotted menu in the upper right corner, tap "get latest full release" (or whatever it is called in english) and you should get the latest fullota release available (for me it remains still b210).

  • I checked on FF app. One of the new apps is confirmed and approved for installation but still it doesn't show up in my system updates. Guess I gotta wait a couple more weeks

  • Apps does load bit faster.. Good color quality.. Noticeable in images.. Videos.. Even on home screen.. New theme gives a pro device look.. Floating dock is great with new navigation features

  • Got oreo update today in South asia

  • What about apps shortcut and notification dot and picture in picture mode

  • Is there someone who got oreo for pralx1c440?

  • There aren't big changes, the settings have completely changed, some icons, there are VoLTE and VoWiFi. About the camera the interface changed but it's still the normal type of photos.

  • Does any one knows what is the difference between pralx1c440 and pralx1c432? I have pralx1c440.

  • thanks a lot Spyro,how is your experience with oreo and emui 8 so far?does the camera support raw(dng)format?any big changes in general?

  • The update is being pushed by random IMEIs so it may take a while to get it, but be sure that it will arrive soon. :)

  • Spyros i have the vodafone version gr (c02) and i am on b163.do you know why is that happening?thank you φιλε

  • Oh.. im on May 2018. The June 2018 comes with Android Oreo so im still waiting for the other phone to get it... We have monthly updates here...

  • I am now on february update, i have the phone since september last year.

  • Really? I receive monthly security updates here in Greece. I own it from July 2017 and I had at least 1 update every month.

  • I contacted Huawei UK and they told me that the roll out will start in July. Seems that it has already started because I received the update in Greece. The update come based on your IMEI. It will arrive soon. I have 2 phones. One is from Vodafone Greece (PRA-LX1C02) and one from a retail store (PRA-LX1C432). The update came to the Vodafone variant, I'm still waiting on the other one.

  • Since i get this phone i receved i several updates. But so far nothing for Oreo.

  • UK EE owned two Huawei phones, Huawei P8 Lite (2017) lastest,never received a single OTA update for either phone. Going Nokia for my next phone.

  • The update comes in patches and the order is totally random . You LL get it soon mate

  • I also have phone for Uk market from EE network, but i didin't get any Oreo update. Do you use Pra-lx1c44o?

  • Simple update. From settings, update.

  • Did you get in with simple update or with firmware finder apk?

  • Did any one get oreo for PRA-LX1C440? Phone is from EE Uk network.

  • It says PRA-LX1 8.0.0.361(C02)

  • Great. What is the build number now?

  • Great news! I just got the official stable Oreo update on my PRA-LX1 (P9 lite 2017) in Greece. It is from Vodafone GR.

  • Hot Topic!!! As much as I can't find fault with the Nokia 5,, properly ok phone throughout the day,,I can't help be interested in the info and status of the p8 2017 lite,, Help people with a similar problem or issue,, even though the 5 has open camera to get away from the system basic,, NIGHTMARE.!!! The basic camera ruined a picture in a lifetime.. Post a message pls

  • Try fixing it with the phone manager to figure out what app uses the most battery and fixing it, use power saving mode when not charging and delete apps that use a lot of power, try not to have a ton of apps

  • Well i recieved some updattes and i am now on theMay 2018 security patch, the updates are fine, they bring security feautues and one brings a recycle bin for your photos in Gallery so you can recover photos after yo delete them if you want. Now, i suggest bavking up your photos to Google Photos or another service before updating, as i lost some photos and i dunno if it's because of the update, but i found them intact in Google Photos. As for bugs there's no big or nothing significant, from time to time YouTube crashes but that happens even before updates i think and i'm a heavy YouTube user Other then that it's all good!

  • DON'T go to nokia! A bunch of problems! It's the second Nokia 5 i have (first made my life miserable for 2 months!) and the new one has camera problems (some firmwares are affected and there is no solution from HMD). Look at NOKIA foruns:

  • Hey, Has anyone done a system update for this phone, and if yes please share with me your experience whether to update or no.

  • nokia 6.1 is probably a better option, if not the Huawei p smart is quite cheap with better hardware. the honor 9 lite is quite cheap for its value too with good specs for its price. None of them are waterproof though

  • I last got the p8lite in 2016. my contract is due for upgrade now and was wondering if i should take the p8lite 2017 and keep it, or sell it and get a nokia 3 or 5?

  • Hello. I had the old p8lite, got it in 2016. I lost it this year at the beach so im very hesitant to get the new p8lite 2017. its the only decent phone available to renew my contract. any opionions if i should get this or sellt it and get the nokia 3 or 5?

  • Yeah' it's normal. Actually, if it reach 90% onwards the led light turns to color green. It doesn't mean that, because it turns to color green it's already full charged (100%). Hope this help. TY.

  • Guys does anyone have battery draining problem

  • yes it supports volte

  • does the phone have VOLTE

  • Accurate!

  • Build 220 still no sign of Oreo. Guess huawei gives the update after android 10 is out

  • Guys i need help, i have B180 but am only able to use sim 1,sim 2 is locked. It has no IMEI number meaning a sim card cant word. Any advice on how to get it unlocked?

  • I got the build 821 and i'm in Lebanon, it's the April 2018 and May 2018 security patches,althought Huawei isn't alwyas always really honest....

  • I m on build 220

  • i want to ask if this phone supports jio reliance

  • i want to ask if this phone supports jio reliance

  • My brother's camera phone is 120FBS and the resolution is 640×480 (VGA), just to record video and slow-motion.

  • Which country are you in?

  • I'm on B221

  • It is normal on Huawei phones. Same with the 5C Honor I have ever used.

  • This is normal. And, btw, you shouldn't go to 100% too often.

  • It s totally normal. It becomes green after 90 percentage

  • Buy this phone 2 day ago,on all other phones when chargiing diode is red when come 100% battery become green.I put on charging this phone,and when diode after 2 hours become green i unpluged it from charger thinked it is 100% but when see on screen it was 90%.I put phone om changer again and again was green but phone is normaly charged till 100. Is it normal that diode become green after 90% or it is something wrong with my phone???

  • We're on the B219 update bud.

  • I get update PRA-LA1C10B180 - 543MB No yet oreo :(

  • Which Nokia 6? The 6 or the 6.1?

  • Nokia 6 or P8 Lite?

  • How about data size?

  • nothing special

  • Whats new on oreo update that you got?

  • It has 4gb ram and 64 storage

  • I think Indian variants of honor 8 lite has 4/64 of Ron and ram

  • congratulation it was 2GB? which version is your p8 lite? 3/16 or 3/32 or?

  • Great news!

  • Today I got Oreo update in India

  • Been using the P8 lite 2017 for a few weeks now and it's a great phone. It's fast, responsive, light weight and easy to use. Main and front cameras are very good at this price range. Huawei have also configured the storage in a clever way. If you select the SD card as the default storage then the phone's software integrates the SD card into the internal phone's 16gb memory and voila you get expanded internal storage. On terms of price and specs this phone punches above it's weight. I would highly recommend this phone.

  • I bought this as soon as it came out and still using it today. Of all the value for money smartphones (not Samsung) I've used over the years it was the biggest disappointment. Had to do a hard reset already and to clean it with the phone manager every day in order not to be laggy. And still is sometimes. Restarts by itself, gets overheated and gets stuck randomly. The screen is good and the camera as well when the settings are tweaked but it's very slow for this amount of RAM (I have it 83% full with the latest update). Plus no option to move apps to SD in order to make more space. I will be upgrading soon.

  • No.

  • Sd card damaged, anybody experienced the same issue?

  • Why is that Huawei has always problem with Bluetooth.. I have a Huawei GR3 2017 before, now I am a user of Honor 9 Lite.. Everytime I am using my bluetooth speaker, as I open my data the bluetooth always got interrupted. I experienced this in both devices. I tried resetting several times but still not fixed. This sucks!

  • They said to me that Oreo will be available in August for Europe. Right now it's only for testers

  • It will be released between June and September

  • allo Huaweiii where is our Oreo? Its unseriozly just

  • Got an update this night. Still no Oreo

  • Blue

  • This is not for me !!

  • Is anyone else's P8 Lite 2017 phones have problems using apps like Snapchat? On mine, it's so painfully slow that it constantly stalls to the point where it's unusable. Help or advice on how to fix that?

  • Now It's clear, beta test will be finished at the end of May, so mid of June or end of June oreo will come, I guess

  • Great phone, just note that it does *not* have WIFI ac - only b/g/n !

  • I have the phone and it's becoming a nightmare. It damaged 3 sdcards... And it can't get network on while on auto.... I only US GSM now.... But what bothers me a lot is damaging of sdcards

  • Huawei p8lite 2017 is defective. I just lost 3 sdcards because this phone damaged all of them... How.... I don't know... It also has a problem with 3g signal... I like the phone but I'm starting to regret buying it...

  • 12MP, 3GB RAM, 3000mAh, Android 7... also getting updated... and is 170EUR.. bish please.. i would buy this even for 180-185EUR... the specs is TOO GOOD for the price..

  • So, Huawei support answered me and they know nothing, just told me they didn't know when exactly this phone will get the update. Who has to know? The phone is great, news that this almost budget device will get oreo are exciting, but Huawei support makes me sad.

  • I asked Huawei UK and they told me that the European version of P8 lite 2017 (P9 lite 2017) will get the Android Oreo, they didnt tell me an exact day because it is still under development.

  • Well, I've asked Huawei about this phone but right now no answer.

  • Have you talked with Ukraine support . Cause as far as I know Oreo for European devices comes in two or three months

  • Where you got this information? Users say that p8 lite 2017(pra-lx1) has already got android oreo, my pra-la1(I'm from Ukraine) still on nougat. I assume that we will get oreo in may 20-30 not in september. If you have confirmed info from Huawei pls share

  • great phone, the update is coming on september 2018

  • yeah me too, i got the update

  • How did you get the update? I got the 2GB update but it wasnt the oreo update...

  • How did you do that? I still haven't recieved the Oreo update. Im also from South Africa

  • How did you do it?

  • Is update available through ota .or you downloaded it with firmware finder

  • any oreo update for philippines? pra-lx2 (gr3 2017) - bahog bilat

  • I updated my p8 lite 2017 to Oreo here in South Africa,, great stuff indeed

  • July, August? Beta oreo is now available, so end of May our date

  • As I know oreo comes july-august I have PRA-LA1

  • Same here, the camera is rubish after a small fall...

  • Oreo update is available on firmware finder app but not yet approved for installation here in South Africa. Im still on the B208 update.

  • Best mid range in 2017 and 2018,, I love this phone

  • The Huawei P8 lite 2017 has better CPU,GPU,more RAM, FullHD screen. The J5 2017 has a better camera. You choose ;)

  • In firmware finder app .Oreo for middle East is now available which is a good news

  • P8 lite in my opinion. It has fhd screen. More powerful processor and and better rear camera as I tested with my friends j5 pro 2017

  • p8 lite 2017 or j5 2017

  • Security patch, got the same update a week ago

  • This phone was bought on Monday 16th April ,it lacks a auto answer function which is required but was never mentioned by Vodacom ,Mall of the South ,Huawei South Africa does not respond to e emails sent to them ,this type of service is typical of a bunch of loosers .

  • Same like me in malaysia still not get any update

  • I have that model and i live in Greece (Europe). How do I sing up for beta?

  • Good for you guys. We haven't got any beta in middle East yet.i think Huawei forgot us

  • EMUI 8 Beta (Android Oreo) is now available to install in European countries of Huawei P8 Lite 2017 (PRA-LX1 C432) Did anyone installed and tried here?

  • The update has been released as beta for pra -al00. In India and China.others have to wait for few months I guess

  • I downloaded Firmware finder for Huawei and it lists all the updates for this phone. There is an Oreo update but we have to wait until it's approved for installation. So yes, we are getting it.

  • The worst mobile phone I ever bought, after a simple fall was blocked and the online support service of Huawei does not work

  • Hey guys I just got an update msg of data of 2.27gb is it an oreo or just patch It's a PRA-LA1C185B167 to PRA-LA1C185B208 I'm in South Africa

  • Well if we re not going to get it.wht the hell did they release beta for honor 8 lite

  • No yet... we are still waiting oreo ... Its unserious step from Huawei... Its my last mobile phone huawei

  • Anyone have news on Oreo update?

  • Good for u. I m still waiting 😀

  • Yeah bro update is available on my honor 8 lite

  • Security update recieved for march. No new feauters.

  • Has anyone received march security patch update

  • I turned it off and it made no difference at all

  • check whehter yout have turned on power saving mode

  • Anyone have an issue with notification for anything (texts, Facebook, other apps, etc.) I'm not getting any notifications for any messages and don't know about them until I log onto the apps themselves. How do I fix this? It's so irritating

  • The last build you got was only a security patch or it contained new features

  • Are u sure Huawei said that Oreo is rolled out in march? Honor global replied to my comment and said Oreo will be rolling out soon

  • I got 72000 ... when comes oreo :@ Huawei said oreo comes in march

  • Where is your location

  • I got 74000 score in antutu benchmark

  • Guys. Honor global on insta replied to my comment and said Oreo for Honor 8 lite will be rolling out soon.stsy tuned

  • how to put load the sim

  • Have you received any updates?

  • My friend received new update hours ago build 211 Pra-la1 c185b211 And this build had some need features like trash in gallery Smart split screen or sth And Mars security patch

  • yes pra-la1c1ob176

  • I've had this phone since October 2017, so far it's an excellent phone, I get 2 days battery use (a few calls/texts, photos most days, browsing over WiFi). Mine is blue (in the UK) from Carphone warehouse, so blue is not just for India as your review implies.Camera is way better than expected, HDR mode works very well, not 'over cooked' as is often the case.

  • Is that march security patch.build number?

  • In this moment I get 156mb security patch

  • I see.well they said they re working on it. If what telecom Italy said is true it would be around June . I expect much security patch in few weeks;)

  • I wasn't expecting Oreo to weigh 500mb. i guess what i was saying is "it would have been nice if i did not get the security patch but instead the Oreo patch." not dumb nuf to expect having an upgrade for OS with 500mb lol.

  • I bought this phone and it only uses one sim... What can I do to make it dual?

  • I hope Huawei will pack Kirin 670 and 64gb ROM in this beauty.

  • Of course if it s getting Oreo it would be getting emui 8 as well

  • It's android oreo update only or get both update like oreo and emui8?

  • TIM Italia confirmed a couple hours ago on twitter, that around June, P8 Lite 2017 will receive the Oreo update. That's obviously for the TIM branded P8s.

  • Why did you buy it if you didnt like the camera, the design etc.?

  • Guys guys.huawei China is releasing Oreo for honor 8 lite but only 64gb and 32gb what the hell. 16gb should also receive this updatr

  • You can go to settings/memory & storge/ default location then tap on sd card it will restart and enjoy any games data like asphalt 8 or fifa can be stored in the same distination on sd card ,enjoy

  • It probably will get oreo.it was confirmed by Europe Huawei support.i don't know about ur first question tho

  • How to remove app or games data from internal to sd card? Are this phone will get oreo update?

  • this phone has a plastic frame, the back glass of the phone has a plastic feeling to it even, the phone has no NFC and its 16 GB Storage has only around 6GB Free and you can't move apps to sd card its impossible. the camera of the phone produce untrue life color , as the color always comes out in over contrast color, the images are all soft and blurry and it takes time to focus , the auto focus in this phone is always lost while recording the video and when zooming the the image becomes soft and blurry , the front camera quality is decent. its soft and blurry and can't take good picture in a dark place or at night. the battery of the phone takes around 3 hours to recharge and its only stays around 5 hours on screen time and while its not in usage the battery consumption is high due to back ground app. for a price of this phone I would recommend Nokia 6 or Samsung J5 pro 2017 .

  • It's a good phone and perfect for me, it serves me well, it's fast, good battery life, both cameras are superb, it has great features too. I've owned it for 8 months now and the phone is still in perfect shape... ☺️

  • Damn you autocorrect.if it was Oreo. It would be around......😀

  • Oreo.if it was preoccupied it would probably be around 2.5 gb not 500 mb

  • Security patch that weighs 521mb, would have been nice if they improved something and aded features withit. :/ Yet here i was thinking it was OREO. It was the first thing that came to mind when i got the notif. Tsk

  • Its a security patch.. No feature update

  • Europe support said it's 100% confirmed for this device

  • What opinion can u give to the latest PRA-LX2C636B175 patch update ? Does it good?

  • I v contacted Europe support and india.they told me it s comfirmed for honor 8 lite.

  • My sister just had this phone for about 3 months....the phone becomes too hot when charging without usage...

  • I want to know if it's going to have the oreo update

  • Not a great deal of information about your slagging phone. I think you should tell people all that you claim bad about before going on with such a tantrum

  • One of the things that I don't like about Huawei devices is that the option 5*5 home layout is only available for huge screen devices like mate 10.why shouldn't a phone with 5.2 imch display have this option

  • I m in middle East And have build pra_la1c185b199

  • PRA-LA1C10B175 316Mb (Change log) This update improves system security with google security patches. (Optimisations) Integrates Google security patches for improved system security.

  • I never got that update yet?

  • Build number?

  • now comes new update 316 mb (google security )

  • Youll have to manage storage(if you gonna use dual sim) and sometimes battery too(depends on your countries signal strength) Otherwise good phone... Sound quality is also good.. Iam a huge music listner

  • The camera is very good. It can record videos at a very good quality even at night

  • Tell me something about sound.Is it good?

  • I'm planning to buy this month here in Joburg what's the matter with it, because most of phone reviewers speaks highly of it.

  • Thanks Spyros, im ditching the xperia xa and i will buy the samsung j5 2017 or this huawei. Im very disapointed with my xa, lots of bloatware and the mtk processor is horrible. The poor quality of the recorded sound was the last drop.

  • Still waiting for oreo

  • It records in FHD. About the mic, I don't know how it will sound in a concert but I have been told that when I'm on a call they don't hear anything else except my voice, so it should have a good microphone.

  • Is the camera good for recording videos in concerts? I have a xperia xa and the recorded sound is awful, lots of distortion the and the base lines ard rubbish.

  • Poor quality phone/s Huawei they are out there to rob people under their so called warranty(bias).I'll make sure I discourage anyone who's planning to buy Huawei in shops, my friends and anyone.Ill also make sure I preach about how bad Huawei is.Your brand will not grow watch the space....

  • I had lost my honor 8 lite phone... how can i find my phone??? please help me!!!!

  • You can try hard reset

  • My phone has been great for the past 5 months but everything is now slow. Please what could be the problem?? Any help?? Thank you

  • I think the last update was as security patch (December) and my build number is pra_la1c185b187

  • This phone have any new updates ??

  • What is 12mp rear camera aperture ?

  • If you want to use Strava give them P8lite a miss. It is terrible and unreliable. For everything else it is a good phone.

  • Is the latest update build 199 or 187

  • Yes you can. The only thing you cant do is transfer apps to the sd card.

  • Yes.you can change the storage in camera setting from internal to SD card.and it saves them in sd

  • 1. When the clock widget is touched, it opens weather, not clock. 2. Calendar isn't available in month view when in landscape mode. 3. Swipe actions on the lock screen is no longer available. 4. Calendar alarms are only available in a few unnecessary presets. 5. Time input in alarms is done with a tedious scroll instead of direct input. 6. Photos have to be deleted twice in order to remove them permanently. 7. Vibration is permanent. 8. Alarm swipe action is too small.

  • what about pictures and videos. can you tranfer or stored it on your sd card?

  • Was the last update build 187? Because I ve heard there s new 199 out

  • If he does that the phone will be locked with his google account. He will be able to unlock it only with his currently linked google account. Perfom the hard reset ONLY if u know the google account u were singed in.

  • is the screen durabale? Are the glass in the front ang back durable enough to withstand usual drops? Im considering buying this phone so ur reply will help a lot. Thanks!!!

  • The only thing to do when you forgot yoir password or pattern is to do factory reset. You can do this when phone is off, you long press the power and volume down key simultaneously until the phone powers up and scroll down to factory reset. Depending on the phone though, it could also be the power and the volume up buttons simultaneously. Hood luck

  • get the redmi, i have had one for a year, they're superbly durable (i dropped it 10+ times, no cracks) and long battery

  • yes it will get oreo update soon hopefully

  • Its a good phone for its price. The only problem is u cant transfer apps to sd card. If there is a way pls tell me and will it get android 8.0?

  • GR3 2017 or Zenfone 4 Max or Xiaomi redmi 4x? What should i buy? Thanks!

  • This device is so much good without any issues and octacore cpu 64bit provides best performance am recommending every other to buy this phone

  • Clean the camera?

  • it is noticeable in indoor condition..try outdoor photos...i think it makes outdoor pics great

  • We will wait, my brother,greeting.,👍

  • i just want to know if when you take a photo of somthing why does to look like your looking thought a greese crisp bag i have gone thought all the settings and there is northing about it .do i go back to the shop to see if they can do something about it .

  • 176 update is just a security patch

  • Is it compatable with fitbit flex 2..have problem syncing my flex 2 an my phone

  • My phone p8 lite 2017 is locked,I lost the password,help please???

  • I have one question if this device will update to orio software. thanks

  • Still 5.0.1

  • does it support volte?

  • I asked one of the Huawei representatives, they said that the glass is made of aluminosilicate

  • does it have glass protection? i have concerns about its back glass.does it is of good quality nand durable? how is it gyro performance . plz guide me those who have used it .thnks in advance

  • is it emui 8

  • No problem here, just needed to make space

  • Has someone updated this phone to 185 update? Is everything okay with it?

  • Does anyone tried using 2 sim and micro sd card at the same time using sim extender? I want to know if it can work or not

  • Nice, we r country neighbours so we will get the update too since its the same model (PRA-LX1). :D

  • Iam from R.Macedonia-Skopje. and Huawei support tell me that will be update, but later.

  • Which colour is eye catching? Black or blue?

  • Maybe your second sim is go to settings > Dual SIM manager and check if if's on that might be your problem

  • Some service providers block the second sim and only allow sim1 to work. You will need to flash a compatible dual sim ROM from another country/provider. There might also be something wrong with the sim or placement of it, though.

  • I have the same phone, but my question is that it has a slot for two simcards and on the other slot it depends if you want to insert a memory card or a simcard. My problem is that when i insert two simcards the other simcard doesn't show and i only see one network name even when i have put two simcards. I tried to find the solution in the settings i didn't find it.

  • Yes but the SD cannot be accessed to store Apps or anything else come to that. This is a major shortcoming when the available internal memory is only 7GB. Nice phone works fast but in essence no memory. Why on earth have they got a SD slot that can't be accessed? This is a bit fraudulent. Taking it back to the shop tomorrow.

  • I have the same PRA-LX1 but when I contacted Huawei Greece they told me that there wont be any OS update for this phone... In which country you live?

  • I have Huawei p9 lite 2017 (PRA-LX1) and i get answer from Huawei email that will be Oreo update about summer 2018!! Otherwise I am very satisfied with this phone, music, camera, battery.... everything is ok.

  • The Honor 8 Lite will definetely get it, it is confirmed by Honor India. Huawei Greece told me the P9 Lite 2017 will not get it... It depends on the region...

  • Can't get mobile data/Internet to work with sky mobile. The Sky people can't work it out, I have replaced similar, manually entered info for mobile but got no Internet. WiFi is working. I have two P8 lite 2017, both new neither does mobile Internet with the sky dim. Any ideas before I return them for a refund?

  • My previous phone is Xperia Z2 and this for the price, the phone is great! Great IPS display, fingerprint scanner is blazing fast, hybrid dual sim (even though I'm not going to use the dual sim but the micro sd). Camera is okay. The best thing is there is no OVERHEATING when playing game! Anyway, I'm wondering why does Huawei need different name for 1 phone. Huawei phone naming is just so confusing.

  • I just wonder... Is there a better phone for 200 euros? If yes please, do tell.

  • Honor 6x is a better device than honor 8 lite and more people have bought this Honor 6x more worldwide so they should bring Oreo update for this device rather than the Honor 8 lite, better still can bring Oreo to all. We are waiting.

  • Mind linking a photo of the mail?

  • There's no oreo update, jst received the email from huawei which is too bad only p10 n plus and mate 10/9 m sorry guys m disappointed as well jst gt this phone previous week hoping for oreo nop guys try to look for new oreo devices or go for nokia since its pure Android n future updates proven, bt imean hw can huawei do this this phone run on latest specs and can out perfom the like of nokia 6 easly even j7 is no match in terms of performance, so if you dont mind updates stick with the beast.

  • This is the article

  • I just read an article that says that the Honor 8 lite will get the android 8 oreo soon. It says that Huawei confirms the update for Huawei Honor 8 Pro, Honor 8 Lite, 9i and 7X. The Honor 8 Lite is also known as Huawei P9 Lite (2017), Huawei P8 Lite (2017), Huawei Nova Lite, Huawei GR3 (2017).

  • Huawei has said this phone will not be getting android Oreo,I did delete the email showing this :(

  • Guys stop lying and bad mouthing the company I bought this phone a second hand screen broken and back is broken but truth be told I love it and I'm going to fix the screen and back. Battery life is so decent and I'm a gamer processor ram all perfect camera also good and for the price why complain if you want high end quality go for mate 10 pro

  • when comes oreo?

  • Why?

  • Claim the warranty asap

  • Watch out, there is a single sim variant of this. It still has a slot for a second sim but the firmware doesn't see second sim. Check if there are to imei's on the box.

  • Help! I've just bought this phone today and I've discovered that the company disabled the option of moving apps to sd card ,also I've downloaded a camera app and the filters won't appear! I'm really frustrated and helpless

  • I just got 1.. The scrolling got too much lag.. Happened in most of the apps.. The camera is ok but focusing not fast.. Very dissapointed with Huawei 😢😢

  • The Huawei P8 Lite is one of the best budget smartphones out there, I'll be honest, I see no reason to get the newest Samsung Galaxy S, or the newest IPhone, when you can get a budget phone with 1080p, a fingerprint scanner, a decent camera, glass back, and a stylish design for under €200, I got one for €150, but a mate of mine got it for as cheap as €130, the only slight flaw I have is that I do tend to cover the speakers (at the bottom, like an iPhone) with my hand while watching videos in horizontal, the interface is smooth thanks to its processor and the 16GB of Memory can be expanded to over 128GB via a micro SD card,

  • when nova lite update to oreo....plz....

  • I tried the developers options just now (about the storage thing) it also slides back. But it registered to my previous sd card. Dunnu whats happening here. But i already setup my new sd card as the default storage. And for those guys who wanted to transfer files. You can do the manual transfer on file manager. The cut and paste style. But youl have to know where the file is stored. For example PHOTOS some photos are saved on DCIM which is camera i believe (am not a techy person) and somhow can be located on file/localstorage or storage0/dcim/camera or photos. When you found where the pictures are you can just cut and paste the folder to the storage 1 or sd card or watever. Its what i always do on my previous lenovo a369i.

  • Hi,is it possible for me to change the font on this device without being rooted ?

  • yes it will

  • Hi guys. Does anyone have an idea if this P8 Lite 2017 will receive Android 8 or not? Thank you.

  • I charge it once a day and I use it a lot!

  • how about the battery.

  • Honor 8 Lite or Nokia 6?

  • Battery drain faster.

  • Yes, the P8 Lite 2017 has a RGB notification LED. You will need to download a LED notification app from the Play Store, i.e. Light Manager in order to set the colours for the different notifications you want. I have done this and it works fine.

  • it has a led,but no default customizing option to change color

  • Can someone tell if it has Led Notification , without any app or smth, how is it like , Im looking for something similar to the Samsung S series !

  • Good performance. Camera need improvement Fingerprint scanner is very fast. Battery average. OK good one from huawei.

  • Honor 8 lite is best phone Its battery timing and multitasking is speechless display is also awesome and super fast processing . . Nice camera and sexiest phone of 2017 Don't waste your money in samsung bro which is too expensive with many limitations

  • The phone is really fast and good but the only problem is the battery drains when playing games is that software problem or battery.

  • Is that phone better or Samsung j5 pro

  • Can t find that option.. How to make slow motion videos

  • Did you notice any changes from the update

  • Today one update came in middle east. It is a small one.

  • This one or Vodafone Smart V8? I'm confused

  • oreo is the next update for p8 lite 2017 when they decide to release it....

  • Not yet

  • are there any software updates for the handset??

  • The best phone I've ever had, great work , the camera is super, quick, nice, and practical. I am pleased.

  • While playing the video in the camera app, select the desired slow-mo part with the timeline shown, then press the menu button(three dot) and touch "Save slow-mo file". BTW, this is a great phone!!!!

  • are there any sw updates for the handset??

  • P8 Lite's primary camera has autofocus. P10 Lite's both primary and secondary camera have autofocus.

  • does this have auto foucus..or do we have to tap the screen to foucus the capture??

  • this fon has slow motion mode..but if i share the slow mo video to whatsapp or instagram ,the video become a usuall not be slow mo..anybody can give explanation to how this happen?and how to overcome this matter????

  • this one is muuuuuuch better!!

  • which is better? this or oppo a71? please help, I'm confused. They have the same price.

  • You can buy the P10 Lite, it's kinda the same but a bit better.

  • I have bought one recently and am very happy with it, so far cannot find any downside to this phone. The battery life is really great

  • My only disappointment is the 16gb internal storage which honestly isn't enough, and that's really it, I mean for that price you are getting a lot, awesome camera, although the shutter speed and autofocus are a tad slow, awesome build quality, great battery and display, and great performance. This phone has everything you'd want

  • I recently paid 120eur for a 3 months old device, practically new and it's been working like a charm. Great, sleek design, pretty nice baterry and decent camera. Recommended :)

  • Saw this is Argos SIM Free Huawei p8 lite 2017, Seriously £130. Full HD screen and 3000 battery "OMG what a BARGAIN" God I love me bargains... Guys is there any catch with this mobile before I buy?

  • Only 110euros? YES it does worth it!

  • Is this phone worth 110 EUR new? There really isn't anything that competes with it at that price, especially in terms of build quality and camera I don't think.

  • It cannot accept that. I tried but always failed .plz tell me how to do it

  • Its doesnt workshop...Dont let me to do...

  • Considering how much you paid for it, you should be jumping for joy. I personally can't believe how good this camera performs given the price range of the device. Huawei certainly did an excellent job, balancing between price and performance here.

  • Hahaha, maybe delete all your FPs and register them again.

  • it worked once on mine but I cant try it again, memory card got ruined. damn, ill try and check again. (-_-) your's are weird tho. maybe it needs more access.

  • I just did the hybrid sim slot hack and that freakin ruin my sd card. lost all my images, luckily I have all apps installed on internal, could have been so irritating if it wasn't. I would recommend that no one does this also since I have tried to check some results for the hybrid sim slot hack and many have failed, [sim slot got stuck] so I regret I did this. ugh. -_- [tis my fault tho. anyway --- new issue about the FP sensor. I have this child [someone I know] that took my phone without my consent and had access with the whole phone using the FP sensor, *note I only had 3 finger print registered. my right and left index finger and my sisters right index finger. now I tried it to other people's finger, and it worked to like 1 out of 5 people. for security? thumbs down Huawei.

  • This is my phone. Its great however my it didn't meet my expectation when it comes to camera.

  • The switch button doesnt work for me. It starts sliding but it goes back... :'(

  • Hey guys. If you want to save applications on your external drive/sd card you go to Developers option. Step 1 enable dev option. -settings/about phone/ *click spam build number. *Once enabled go back to settings -step 2 check dev opt. - settings/developer option *Swipe finger until bottom page see //apps --- force allow apps on external storage. Hope that helps :*

  • if that so, the price will not be the same.

  • Been using the Honor 8 Lite for 6 months now and all are excellent.

  • Been using this phone for 4 months now. Get slow/hang when u took longer (1 hour or more) chatting on skype. Get hot easy even u r only playing candy crush . Disappointed!

  • Think twice before buy Samsung J series ... If you damage display, you can buy new phone with that display cost ....

  • Buy Galaxy J5 2017(Pro)

  • I tried to find those settings but they're not there. Must be because of the UI on the P8 Lite 2017. Maybe an update will solve it in the future.

  • I don't play games,i charge my phone every other day,battery is good.

  • They are the same.

  • what is the difference between this phone and nova lite?

  • I've been is so many Huawei seminars (the last one was 3 weeks ago) and this is not possible for my model at least. Dont speak if you dont know.

  • How much screen on time on this phone?

  • Go for the p8 lite 2017 I was in ur place and its about a year now I've no regrets

  • Actually both of u can U just need to say that u don't know cuz ur too lazy to read the manual or read the help

  • Settings, memory & storage, storage settings, default location

  • Im using this phone for almost a year as a primary phone On 4G network it lasts for 18-24 hrs And charges from 6 to fully charged in less than 3 hrs

  • How much screen on time (active usage when screen is on) can I get of this phone?

  • How's the battery? Please, can someone post an average sot (screen on time)? I don't play any games and I'm expecting about 8-9hours active usage of this phone. Will i get this?

  • Yes, it is also known as Huawei P9 Lite (2017), Huawei Honor 8 Lite, Huawei Nova Lite, Huawei GR3 (2017).

  • Is this the same phone as P9 lite 2017?

  • You cant. Keep the apps on the device and photos/videos/music in the SD card.

  • just go to setting then apps then click the move

  • Anyone know how to move apps to SD card?

  • Very Disappoinment , why not 32 Gb Rom in this phone

  • I have just purchased this phone. However I am unable to use it to scan 1D barcodes (eg CODE39, CODE128, EAN128 etc..). It will scan 2D barcodes (eg QRCODE) perfectly but not 1D. Has anyone come across this issue ? There are a lot of camera settings, is it possible that the default settings can be changed to allow scanning barcodes? Pat

  • I must say that for this phone at this pricepoint it is actually good,but the problem that I found out was does the top of phone heats up preett quickly and the battery seems to drop to be significantly fast are there anyone out there that have the same problems?. (sorry for the grammar)

  • Hey can anyone help me on what phone to get, I'm stuck between the honor 6x - 195€, the p9 lite(16gb, 3gb) - 170€, honor 8 lite 16gb, 3gb (P8 lite 2017) - 195€, samsung j3 2017 - 170€, samsung j5 2017 - 200€, honor 5c - 180€, Y7(Not Prime) - 170€ and yeah I don't know any more suggestions for around that price range or quality range plz say

  • There are some pretty great deals for this phone here as The 3GB variant is selling for just $165 here in Pakistan (On Yayvo), which is just a tad more than the price of Nokia 3! This phone's original launch price was $240 so it's a total steal at this price! About the only problem with this phone is that it'll likely never get an update to Oreo and they way EMUI strangle notifications and kill apps in the background is another major drawback.

  • NFC Yes (market dependent What about this ?!!!!!

  • After update, My compass is not working properly. Before its ok.

  • i want to choose between this phone And Y7 pro

  • Who Knows what if miracle happens what if honor 6x will also get oreo update because you know it's so unfair for the people who buy this phone like me that expect oreo update and emui 8

  • Im not saying that it wont get the update, there is a 99% posibillity that it will get it but it will get it after the P10 series receive it. Honor 6X has the same processor with the P9 lite 2017 and it has already got 1 OS update (from MM to Nougat). Is Kirin 655 eligible for the new android 8?

  • The new system update feels smooth and great. It has increased the available internal memory. I'm just waiting for Oreo and emui 8 updates.

  • That's an unfair game..p8 lite comes out with nougat out of the box so it must have oreo and the new emui 8 update and if it doesn't belong to any series so what, every device have an update..it should have at least one update..p8 lite 2017 i the lower but newer version of the honor 6x and the newer version of p9 lite why it doesn't belong to any series.. yes this is midrange but almost all midranges out there have updates sometimes they provide it two updates (sometimes) not only huawei has that kind of tactic almost all brands nowaday.. so there's no way this will be stock in nougat and emui 8

  • Because Huawei releases one Lite smartphone every year. This year Huawei has the P10 series. The P10 Lite will get it for sure, the P8 Lite 2017 doesnt belong in any series for this year, but there is a high possibility that it will get the new android because it is a mid range phone and that is the tactic of Huawei about mid range phones (1 OS update) but not sure if it will be the same version with the P10 Lite (EMUI 8 or something else).

  • But phones manufacturer provides 1 update for a device and android one provides 2 android updates why this phone will not get any updates

  • application from phone to sd card cant be transfer. so u better installed important apps on phone only. and others to sd card. better buy 32 or 64 gb sd card. that the only problem oh gr3.

  • U may have the P9 Lite 2016 not the 2017 version.

  • why my phon ( p9 lite) read ram 2gb not 3gb my internal storage 16 gb

  • Please help me decide if I should buy this or honor 6x? please state your reasons aswell :) thank you in advance

  • Had anyone try to put the applications to the external memory card cause i want to do it cause my phone basic memory is full and i don't know how to do it if possible!!!!??????

  • which update?

  • no news..even from Huawei website

  • This phone isn't in the android one program. If it gets it it will just get the android 8 with emui (not sure if emui 8). Possible next spring.

  • Soon by nextmonth or possible by next year Huawei P8 Lite (2017) will get an update to android one or android 8.0 with Emotion UI 8.0 also that will be good

  • Is Huawei P8 Lite (2017) compatible with FLIR ONE PRO thermal imaging camera attachment?

  • The firmware uses about 6.44 gb out of the 16 gb so u can enjoy the rest and don't forget that the device does support external memory card so u'll be fine adding media to this external card and leaving internal storage for apps and gaming

  • Yeah after 5 days Works fine and like 500mb lighter than the old version

  • Hello, does someone know if this cellphone will get the new android 8.1? Thx

  • only complaint about the phone is about the fingerprint scanner, it doesn't really get my fingerprint, I have to press it not only twice, but sometimes have to enter my pin instead. now I can hardly use it because I kind of had a cut on my finger and it's not recognizing it, I can add another fingerprint but it just says the print is already registered. about the usage, phone gets 10 hours sot from light use and 4 hours gaming/heavy use. I usually play MOBA games on it and it lasts just about +-4 hrs. phone works fast for me. maybe some lag when switching themes? but not on games. I don't have issues with WIFI but my GPS auto turns on and off (just sometimes though).

  • I also have dropped the phone hip high, actually did not know it was dropped. I left it on top of our washing machine and it damn well vibrated, slid down and bang broke the top part of the phone near the front cam, it's just small and unnoticeable and thankfully it did not hurt my camera. I believe that this phone doesn't have gorilla glass, but the glass is sturdy enough for it's price.

  • yes i do but it is the one of the worst update ever..my device is just getting hanged up and does'nt work for 2,3 minutes

  • is there anyone try the new update for this device....?

  • Price is almost the same but Honor 6x is better than this one. Bigger screen, better camera, battery...

  • Im afraid of the P10 lite that is the P lite for the 2017 but they also announced the P8 Lite 2017. The P10 lite will definitely get it but the P8 is also a mid range phone. Im not sure what they will do...Its likely to get it for its specs and bcs its a best seller smartphone (maybe next spring-summer).

  • It has about 7GB to use

  • Hope this dec have an update to oreo with emui 8.0 for P8 Lite (2017)

  • May I know if we buy this phone, did we get accurate 16gb of internal storage like the specs told us or less ? because my old phone is HTC(I forget what models) only get 1gb internal storage but the specs say 4gb...add-ons, I want to know other brands of phone which it specs similar with this one..need the answer ASAP..tq

  • is this good phone? - Yes, with its price tag, a very good smartphone, design and usability. how is the battery life and camera quality? battery will always be dependent on how you used it. But surprisingly, am connected 24/7 to wifi, social media, chatting, at random times playing games, (nba 2k17 and clash of clans), and battery is decent enough to last full day. is there any heating issues? none at all what is the best one when we comparing nokia 6 and Huawei P8 Lite (2017)? I think, Nokia 6 is a great phone too, but I don't like the hardware design, but the specs are amazingly great on paper (i never tried it though). But for all we know, Nokia is Nokia.

  • well, that's your opinion, and maybe you just had a bad day... :)

  • If we get lucky, P8 2017 will get Oreo...

  • let's get real, even if a smartphone have a gorilla glass 4 or whatever, we do still install a screen protection :) LOL

  • my honor 8 lite (P8 2017) is working perfectly, all day and all night connected to wifi and I charge it once a day at 20%

  • Before taking it*

  • Try reseting the phone and enforce taking it to the service center. Back up your data first.

  • I dont know why but the battery life on my p8 lite 2017 is so shitty it cant last me a day with normal use But all people talk about how great this battery is i'm so confused

  • I dont know why but my new p8 lite 2017 have shitty battery life sometimes i need to charge it twise a day but i see all people talk about how geat battery life so what's the issue

  • The screen doesnt have any protection but it comes with a screen protector in the box.

  • This phone have any screen protection? This screen will be scratched?

  • Just Go for P8 Lite (2017) for sure you will be amazed of this unit.

  • I have the P8 Lite 2017 for 3 and a half months and it has never lagged, the battery last for at least a day with heavy use or 2 days with normal use and there are no heating issues. The difference between the Nokia 6 and the P8 is that Nokia has more storage, corning glass 3, Dolby atmos, fast charging and bigger screen but the P8 has a faster processor. I am VERY satisfied with my P8 but you choose. +The Nokia 6 will get the 2 next Android operating systems, O Oreo and P. The the P8 may get only the Oreo.

  • The P8 Lite 2017 is faster than the Nokia 5, has FHD screen and more Ram.

  • Huawei P8 Lite (2017) or the new Nokia 5. Which one's the better choice??

  • So I will recommend to you to buy Huawei P8 Lite (2017)

  • I've been using this phone for more than 6 months and there is no issue in heating and battery backup can lanst for 2 days, camera quality is good with time lapse and slo-mo video recording

  • no.

  • is this good phone? how is the battery life and camera quality? is there any heating issues? what is the best one when we comparing nokia 6 and Huawei P8 Lite (2017)?

  • Id say Nokia 3310

  • Yes it was a good phone very smooth and good battery backup last for long day

  • I think this is a great phone

  • Good news! As it seems we r going to get the Android 7.1.2 soon. I found it being tested on the geekbench. Here is the link.

  • P8 lite 2017 has Soda Lime glass and NOT gorilla glass.

  • There isnt any official information about the Android 8 Oreo update, but i guess it will be available next year since the phone is mid-range.

  • Ohh..Idk maybe it fell at a sensitive position.. It doesnt have gorilla glass. My phone has fell many times but i have a silicone case so it absorbs the jolt...About the battery and the speed i still think u have a faulty device.

  • Is this unit can upgrade to android 8.0?

  • Let me rephrase, I bought a glass screen protector and applied it (Not the one that came with the phone). It cracked with the glass screen protector installed. This leads me to believe the screen is not gorilla and basic glass, I have had multiple phones in my life and dropped each of them at some stage, none of them has ever cracked (with a glass screen protector installed), this is the first phone that actually cracked (and it did not fall far)

  • It's not glass its just a plastic screen protector, mine had it too when I bought it.

  • I do not have a faulty device, bringing out this phone was the only fault going around here. And if you read what if have said, you will notice I did say it does have glass protector installed, hence me complaining.

  • Huawei Nova 2i

  • U have a faulty device. I can dissagree to all of what u r saying. I have this phone for 3 and a half months and the battery lasts at least a day with heavy use and ~2days on normal use and its NOT SLOW. The screen protector is for scratches and dust. If u want to protect the screen from cracks u have to buy a glass protector.

  • Which phone do u suggest under 15k

  • I specially registered to leave a comment. I had this phone now just over a month and its 1 of the worst phones i have ever owned. First off, it has a cover and a glass screen protector, last week i accidentally droped it from my bed (not a long drop, +-1m), the screen is now cracked. Now i cannot blame Huawei for this, but it really is a poor screen if it takes 1 drop with an installed screen protector and still manages to crack. Besides for this, The phone is extremely slow, when you work on the phone to fast, like opening multiple app the phone becomes completely unresponsive, you cannot even do a hard reset and have to wait for the phone eventually become responsive again. The touch sensitivity on the phone is also bad. Sometimes i have to press on the same thing multiple times before it registers. Sometimes when you try to turn on the Bluetooth it just refuses, also even-though i turn off the WiFi it still connects to WiFi, i don't even know how that is possible. Then the fingerprint scanner, what a piece of junk. I don't know if its the phone that's just slow as hell, but not a day passes whereby i don't have to push the button multiple times before the phone recognizes my finger. The battery is also nothing to write home about. I get +- 10 hours on light use. On heave use (browsing facebook, and watching facebook vids), i get +- 4 hours at best. All and all, rubbish phone. Before this I had a normal P9, the normal P9 is in another league compared to this piece of junk.

  • P8 lite 2017 is better at everything

  • Which is good for gaming samsung j7 core or huawei P8 lite...p

  • Does this phone has a scratch resistant screen?

  • haha! no one know until some one will try to drop-test the phone

  • don't forget the pre-installed apps so you will get just about less than 5gb

  • Honor 8 Lite and 6x are almost the same. if you want to have the experience of having a dual-camera then go for 6x

  • sad to say, 16gb is lame and the standard should be 32gb. Anyhow, by default, system is taking away almost 7gb system files, pre-installed apps around 4gb, now, the user storage less than 5gb

  • visit youtube, select your song, copy the link. search in google youtube to mp3, then paste the link, then convert and download. : )

  • Honor 8 Lite fantastic smartphone!

  • P8 Lite 2017 or Honor 8 Lite fantastic smartphone at its price!

  • Thank you

  • I don't know the other phone so I can't compare them. I don't know that infinix brand

  • Pls which can i go for....Huawei p8 lite or infinix note 4 pro with xpen.....i need a phone that has a good camera. Thank you

  • It has a Led flashlight next to the back camera. The photos are good. The front camera has screen flash. The screen becomes white in maximum brightness so u have light for your selfies

  • Hey, does the model in PH (g3 2017?) support B28 700mhz LTE Frequency? Thanks

  • this device is excellent you have to try it

  • Does it have flash light when taking photos at nite

  • Tq for your suggestions.....my be i would like to change amoled screen phone in the future....

  • The phone has eye comfort setting,use it.

  • I fill my eyes so tired n little bit of sick when i used this phone for 5 hours directly....before that i m samsung j7 user...its not happen when i used so long time ...can anyone else have a same like me

  • Can anyone tell me why my eyes so tired n can,t serve my honor 8 lite 2017 long time....before i used it...i m samsung j7 user n i dont have this matters

  • I think it does have.

  • Yes u can see. Idk why it doesn't says that it has but VR is working perfectly.

  • Can watch vr videos with this phone? Seems it doesnt has gyro

  • It has gorilla glass? I called to to huawei customer service and asked them, they said it has gorilla glass...then why not showing any website?

  • CPU-Z detects a gyroscope and it is working perfectly with VR videos/games. I have VR glasses and it works as it should.

  • Anyone knows does it has Gyroscope sensor and it it work with VR perfectly.. please comment users only,,Thank You

  • P8 lite 2017 or redmi note 4?which one is better?

  • Thanks for replay

  • Excellent at day medium at night. But you can adjust camera settings (pro camera) and shot amazing pictures even at night.

  • yes , that is true.

  • How is cemara?

  • Why no updates for this phone in the UK???

  • P8 lite 2017 is faster than the LG and has better camera.

  • Do I buy a Huawei p8 lite 2017 or an Lg Stylus 3

  • Although it doesn't says it I think K it really does. CPUZ detects one. Plus all the VR videos/games work perfectly.

  • i think there is a gyroscop sensor too.

  • This happened to my phone also exactly 2 months after I bought it, what I did is, WAIT. I did nothing but to wait, and now, it's back to its normal battery life :) Don't ovethink, just WAIT!

  • Honor 8 lite and y7 prime

  • it has 2 sim card slot but sim slot 2 is hybrid - that means you can either use another sim or a memory card.

  • Xperia XA has slightly better selfie camera but they are all like the same when it comes about camera.

  • My friends come up with these five upcoming phones. honor 8 lite nokia 5 huawei y7 prime xiaomi redmi 4x sony xperia xa selfie camera is important to me   And processor

  • There is DUAL model, he may just have bought the single one like i did (bought by Vodafone)...They didnt tell me its single but nvm its the best smartphone u can get at this price.

  • Camera is thee best :)

  • you can only put one sim card

  • Honor 8 Lite has FullHD screen when the Y7 Prime has HD smaller screen but more internal storage and bigger battery. About the P8 Lite 2015 model its not worth it comparing with the 2 above.

  • Which P8 lite? The 2015 version or this one the 2017 version? The 2017 model is the same with Honor 8 Lite.

  • Check if you have 2 IMEIs on your settings. U can find it in the last tab "About ohone". If it says 1 IMEI then your device doesn't support a 2nd Sim card but if it says 2 IMEIs then check if your Sim card is working on an other phone.

  • Plz Suggest which phone is beter Huawei P8 lite or Honor 8 lite or Y7 prime which one is best?

  • Please help i put a nano sim in slot 2 but its not reading the second sim. Is there anything that i need to do.

  • Music can be downloaded from PC to be sure there won't be any issues with your device since many applications on the playstore or the web may slow down your phone or even worse install a virus since downloading music is illegal. About the SD card there should be an option on the store manager.

  • hey spyros! I tried some stuff with the storage option. I managed to put sd card as primary storage for downloading stuff, then I downloaded music, but then it doesn't show that it is on sd card.. my sd card is still available and has no data on it. maybe I can download stuff on computer instead just plug the memory card on a reader and connect it to PC? do you know an application that can help me download music on the phone? Sad about the issue with storage. tried spotify, but spotify needs access or membership so... I need something free. (T_T)

  • thanks, let me try.

  • If you have an update available then do it, it may fix the battery problem. If it doesnt then the steps are (Hard reset will delete EVERYTHING from your phone, back up your data first) go to settings - advanced settings - back up and reset - factory data reset - RESET PHONE.

  • ok how do i resert because i close everythng u mentioned bt no change, wanna try reset, i even tryed system update but its taking time to download.

  • Close the unnecessary things like wifi, Bluetooth, cellular data etc. If this doesn't work something in the system may have lagged. Make a hard reset an tell us if it worked.

  • Same problem as you.

  • my phone is 2 month old, i have a problem with battery it runs out so fast i have to charge everyday. at night if i put it with 60% i will wake up at 40% bt i was nt using it the whole night.

  • thank you for answering

  • They are the same based on what gsmarena says.

  • Hello guys just asking if the rear camera of this phone is same as P10 lite I notice the mp, um and sensor size is same like their camera samples

  • I just asked Huawei if it supports VoLTE or VoWifi and they said no ☹️

  • Here in PH some users can format sdcard and allocate it as internal memory but you shouls not remove it otherwise your mem. Card will be corrupted/can't use

  • does it support VoLTE

  • I'm sorry that I can't help you.. I don't have an SD card to find where that option is...

  • settings -> apps -> choose application to transfer - sadly there is no option to move to sd card. ill try other steps, was hoping I could do it on file manager instead. :/ but im quiet afraid of transferring files to sd card manually over file manager, I might just lose data with some certain app.

  • I think it depends on which country you live. There are no differences. Im not that sure tho.

  • I though Model number is where are you country from. Due to change on country the release date of update is the only thing different at all

  • sorry, i meant pra-la1 and pra-lx2 not pra-cx

  • I don't know. I have the PRA-LX1

  • Please PRA-LA and PRA-CX, what's the difference and which one is better??

  • I bought my mother one the other day and helped her set it up let me also say im a note 8 user myself i was very impressed with the performance of this device and the selfie cam seems to be better than on my note 8 if u on a tight budget i would highly recomend this phone

  • First of all its EMUI not MIUI(Xiaomi) :P and secondly u can move your apps to the SD card through settings->apps->(select the app you want to move to the SD card)->1st option(storage or something)->there should be the Move to SD card option there. Tell me if you did it. These should be the steps, since i dont have an SD card im not 100% sure if these steps are correct. As far as i know Huawei doesn't have any game booster app.

  • I updated my phone and got the miui 5.0.1 :D i have questions though. Huawei doesn't have game booster app? and how do you store stuff to sd card? -_- i spent like 1 hour trying to fiddle my phone on the settings. ps, i love the miui themes, XD

  • Solid phone for the price! Great battery and good screen. Just don't expect it to perform like a flagship. But it does hold its own. Overall satisfied customer.

  • If there is any update for your phone then do it, if not download the apps and wait for the next update. Sometimes it needs time for the update to come to your phone since its new. Mine got its first update after 3 weeks and the 2nd one 2 days ago.

  • Defenitely gonna buy this phone just need more savings hehehe I am just a student I want to see further updates for performance,battery efficiency and memory optimization did huawei official annouce to have this Android Oreo?

  • Recently in PH it have an update of size 615mb+ changelog says "Google security Patch" how come to a security patch that have a large update? Anyways who among you guys update already? What is changes?

  • haven't had gone through amazing stuff with it yet but I checked the lowlight capability and it was very noisy. but if you punch in light or flash it was at least nice. have not downloaded stuff yet. i'm still trying to learn the UI. anyway, I wanted to check if there were updates, I believe, would it be better if I upgrade the phone before I download apps?

  • Huawei P9 Lite 2017 is easy to use thanks to the Android Nougat 7.0 and with its screen in HD 5.2 "is easy to manipulate physically.I recommend those that need a physically light equipment, fast processor and good camera resolution. Be the Average Range. Beat the Samsung Galaxy J7.

  • Charging time doesn't matter to me either but the battery lasts at least a day with heavy use.

  • I am going to buy this phone now. :D but I think I will try it on the store first, and then go for it if I like it. better have the hands on first before I jump to the purchase. I am hoping Huawei will give me good experience with this phone :3 anyway im also from PH and I really don't care about the 3 hours of charging because I can play dota2 while waiting for the charge XD. GGWP

  • Yeah, i liked it alot and gonna upgrade to p10 lite if i got bored although the feeling of satisfaction the lasts for more than 4 months especially when it comes to battery life and the time it takes for fully charging

  • Same feeling of an iphone 16gb storage U have to clear the cache of every app and transfer media files to the pc once a week or 2 and the phone shall work smoothly

  • Up to 8 hrs on 4g medium to high data usage

  • There's an option that enables u to take a photo without unlocking the phone nor sliding the camera button... U can hold the volume button right after the phone gets its way out of your pocket without even the camera app starts... Just enable that option

  • Im from the middle east It takes less than 2.5 hrs to fully charge the battery from 3%

  • Just updated on B151. EMUI 5.0.1 still android 7 but security patch 5 Sept 17. My storage is bigger after the update. Thats what i noticed.

  • I'm from Greece and it take about 2.5 hours to fully charge, maybe 3 if it's at 0%.

  • I cant belive many users of this phone from PH says 3H is the charging time from 0%/- 100% is that becauas 800mah is the local charger on our country?

  • I get it u bought it for a limited time. But for 200€ u could say it's more than enough. Totally worth it.

  • U didn't mention that the device is temporary but u still compared the UI experience, ram and speed with this one. I'm OK with that. The iPhone 7 and the P8 Lite 2017 can't be compared because they r at different categories. Mid range phone with a premium one. For 200€ it's more than enough.

  • I've already used a p10 plus and liked it, but I wanted a cheap Android just for texting and email. The phone will no doubt get busted at work so no point in wasting money like I do on Apple , which I've already killed way too many

  • And I only got an Android again until I replace my iPhone , I like the huawei , that's why I chose it when I was looking for a new Android standby device , I didn't want to blow lots of money on a device so limited myself to £200 or lower , as most of my money is going toward trips and stupid Xmas :-) then I'm back to iPhone once a better version of the x or newer arrives

  • I wasn't comparing I was replying

  • I just don't get it XD people pay for $649 Iphone 7 and compare to this budget $200 Gr3 2017. Try to buy Honor 9 almost price of Iphone 7 but save a few bucks. It is true that you will get what you pay for .. Compare Iphone 4s to this device that price around 200$ and compare it

  • So to make the story short. It doesn't heat a lot when in minimum brightness? I prefer low brightness screen because my eyes hurt if only at 25%

  • Don't compare this one with apple. Compare the P10 or the Mate 10 and I think u will change your mind.

  • I moved from iphone 7 to this hauwei p8 lite 2017, it is no way close to the iphone in terms of performance, ram effiency , ui fluidity but the screen resolution the p8 lite is higher for sure. I was getting an average of between 8 and 9 hrs 40 mins screen usage on my standard size iphone 7 , emails, net usage, texting, etc (no gaming) huawei is good for the money but not even close to apple

  • most phones will increase in heat after a while if the brightness is turned up, brighter screen uses more energy usually , energy usage causes heat even in small degrees

  • This phone is only good for some functions , taking photos is frustrating camera speed is very slow, pictures are bad, the camera app takes ages, you will lose the photo moment , and the phone is overall strangely slow for its specs in normal operation ,anything that has to do with rotation of the screen and you will see sluggish performance

  • I visit the local store and I admit the display is crisp and sharp but the phone increase alot heat when I turn display at 50% is it normal?

  • Honor 8 lite or honor 6X??? which one is better?

  • That happens with all Android phones. If u buy an 8GB phone 4gb will be the os, if u buy a 16gb the 7-8gb will be the os and it goes on and on...

  • I never turn off the wifi and when I go out I always turn on data and with medium to high use I charge the phone once a day.

  • The internal memory is disappointing, 6.5G for firmware, why?? Only 7.5 is available for users

  • Battery timing with net use?.

  • I watch a youtube channel named Jerry rig everything when comes to durability Huawei honor 6x lacks of screws to hold on metal frame and I love compact phones I can't reach the top of phone to slide down notif if the phone is 5.5 uo

  • Honor 6X has dual camera and same specs like the P8 Lite. The price is like the same.

  • I bought this phone yesterday and it's a great phone I don't wanna lie, it looks and feels like an iPhone. great ram, but internal storage is disappointing. camera is a 9/10

  • Should I buy this phone? Please reply this comment!

  • How much free ram had this on first use?

  • Is this good to buy for a rear camera? There are many phones introducing dual cam setup and I love the depth of field change + dual camera setup have some effects such wide angle and sharper in monochrome setup

  • It worth every cent. I'm totally satisfied.

  • Its a good phone for everyday activites in gaming you need to medium-low the graphics if you want a 30fps decent battery backup

  • Is this phone capable of everyday activities, does it lag or slow down? Please help! I need to update soon and I'm not sure which phone to get...

  • It's 200€ and 270€. Idk how that weird A came out.

  • Here in Greece P8 Lite 2017 costs 200€ and the P10 Lite costs 270€.

  • Is A3 2017 is better?

  • Front and back glass easily breakable? Becoz i dont want use protector and back cover

  • Huawei p10 lite or P8 lite 2017? I know p8 lite 2017 is affordable for the price but p10 lite is kirin 658 with fast charging is it worth of penny? Do p10 lite is much more power hunggry than p8 lite 2017?

  • How much is price gap of P8 lite 2017 in P10 lite?

  • Guys... I'm using p10lite... So u think i'm against of this device......... Nothing like that...... Because.... I love huawei....... My first mobile is p8lite 2015 edition.......... Prince 2015.........but u must consider about this product because it has more lags and issues.... In performance wise because........this mobile u can't get fast charging.... If u want to get full battery charger u must wait.... Minimum 3 hours for 100% percentage..... 16gb internel storage...... Huawei allocated 4gb for firmware usage.... And.... Other apps.. U will get only..... 11gb or something...... If this will able to update android O.... They will suck more storage for that..........this mobile don't have metal body.......... Plz care about u r money.... Most of the people..... Not a rich ones........so if u wanna buy a mobile..... First u must check reviews....... From best reviewers..... Comparisons.... Price range... Commpetions.... For this price.............. If u are a mid range lover....style meets performance....true words from Huawei . Try to buy p10lite.......... Or honor 8.......just

  • Redmond 4x has better battery and faster 4G. The P8 lite 2017 is better at everything else.

  • xiaomi redmi 4x or this phone? help

  • See this comparison . Maybe the SD 625 is a bit faster but Kirin are optimised with EMUI, just like apple with iOS.

  • If kirin and SD have the same result/performance. can you give me examples for comparison? like sd 625 = kirin 6xx? and sd 835= kirin 9xx?

  • P10 has the next kirin processor 658, has faster 4G network and supports fast charge. If these sounds good for you then go for it.

  • Whichone should i buy? P10 LITE or P8 LITE (2017)? More ram and memory not matter for me. Better performance matter.

  • Kirin chipsets are optimized for Huawei devices with the EMUI or Emotion UI. SD and Kirin are very close to the same result.

  • Blue is available in the UK as well.

  • Xiaomi Redmi 5/5 Prime(Rumors for now) or this P8 Lite 2017? I admit the design is beautiful but I can't pick if sd625 or Kirin655

  • Choose this phone Nokia 5 is good but if you want camera amd battery life pick this

  • The P8 Lite has more ram, full hd screen but Nokia 5 will get 2 Android updates (Oreo and P). The P8 Lite may get the Oreo but not the P since it's not a flagship. If u want to have the latest updates go for Nokia 5 but if u want to have good specs the P8 Lite is a bit better.

  • what do you prefer p8 lite 2017 or nokia 5

  • Definitely not. Once a drop of water fell at the speaker and it didn't work for 5 mins. I turn it off and let it dry and then it worked again.

  • is this device water resistance??

  • Can I suggest that you clean the fingerprint off the lens of the camera!

  • The first solution before going the phone to the service center is a hard reset. If this doesn't work then u have to go to the Huawei service center. Before doing the hard reset back up your data.

  • Please I have been using Huawei Gr3 2017 PRA-LA1 for about three weeks now, it used to capture pictures with acceptable quality . But now every picture captured is blur (dim). I have restored the camera settings to default yet still the picture quality is poor, unacceptable. I'm down, please help me out. Even pictures taken during broad day light are also dim. Thank you 

  • Has anybody experiencing the phone PRA-LX2 suddenly reboot by itself and and the default storage location is reset to internal? This had happen to me twice in the last 3 month. Its not like it affects my usage but i wonder if something's wrong with my phone

  • No, the honor 8 has darker and shinier blue color.

  • Must be something with your phone, cam and video works flawlessly in my phone

  • Nope. Lite versions run Emotion UI. This one will have the Emotion 5.0 UI. Maybe it gets the Android oreo with Emotion 6 UI but that's not sure.

  • P8 lite 2017 blue color are same as honor 8 blue?

  • Will it get emui 5.1 update?

  • I willing to purchase this. what are the technical issue that u are mention here

  • Huawei hasn't announced yet which smartphones will get the Android oreo.

  • Click bait.

  • Huawei P8 Lite PRA-LX2(2017) official Oreo update??

  • Only available in India tho.

  • BLUE

  • Which color should i buy? Blue? Gold or White?

  • pra-la1

  • which model is good? PRA-LA1 or PRA-LX1

  • If someone who are willing to make scratch test of this device on Youtube. I am gonna subscribe to it

  • It should be pretty scratch resistant. I phoned Huawei UK & asked them what kind of glass it has & they told me it is aluminium tempered glass & their equivalent to Gorilla glass.

  • uhhhhmmmm what are you using finger or nails?

  • How easily does the screen scratch?

  • Huawei P8 Lite (2017) Official Android 8.0 Oreo Update

  • In official page they say 2.0 and in their advertisement

  • review this one not that cheap chinese toys

  • Is the camera f2.0 or f2.2?

  • does this support a fast charger 2.0?

  • Best fon good price best batry timeing and long wifi connection

  • Try a hard reset. Back up your data first

  • Using this phone for a couple of months. Good specs and nice on the hand but camera reallllyyyyyy lagging and very slow to start (can take up to 40 seconds) after 2 months of use. Anyone with a solution

  • Really? Did you buy one? I seen on lazada some tempered glass that says curved fit but when I ask the seller they say it is cutted

  • No dude. He means Cloning apps like in other device sample is facebook

  • Today the phones are so much alike, i say it is a matter of taste (and wallet;)

  • Thats a good question

  • It has multiple colors, escpecially when it is charging, the ligth is changing continously, -- green when fully charged

  • Of course

  • My works ok, check your connection, and your router

  • You propably mean dual sims? and, yes it has, i got it myself

  • Just get a case, and you will be safe, many of todays cellphones are made with glass on the back

  • In almost any shop that sells mobile phones, this is still a popular model, many online stores, just Google your phones name

  • Why is the phone bad with WIFI???

  • Which one color is more stylish? Blue ? White or gold?

  • Where can I buy a curved tempered glass for this phone?

  • Thatś true! just got mine, with a good case, its ok, i bought a reinforced case with extra thick corners, and a panzerglass protective displayshield, so i think i am good - greetings from Sweden

  • Just buy a silicone case and u will be 100% sure the glass wont break. Mine has fall many times and its like new. Just get a case.

  • I've heard about this phone that backside made of glass , its so weak that it breaks when falls from distance 10cm is that true

  • i herad about this phone that the backside made of glass and that glass so weak that falls from 10cm it causes broken is that true?

  • Hye...this phone have a dual apps function?

  • Guys j5 2017 or Gr3 2017? Which one u advice?

  • You're so right, the J5 prime's camera is wack

  • I have it about 2 weeks and I am very happy with my choice. I play many hours and I have to recharge about 2 times a day, only with the game and the news feed open. But I am playing many hours. Without gaming the battery I believe it can make it about 2 days.. Music you can hear many endless hours. The graphics are awesome and also the sound. The pictures front and back camera are good and I insert a 32gb memory and I am OK. Best choice for that price.

  • Do P10 lite had blue color? What is in this two phone is much longer battery?

  • P8 lite 2017 for me. Full glass and round fingerprint.

  • Which one is more stylish? P10 Lite or P8 lite (2017) in blue color?

  • wi fi?

  • Nah i play aspalt airborne and needforspeed no limits while listening to SoundCloud and works fine It gets a little bit hot only when i switch it off then connect it to the charger, otherwise no heating issues at all just charge the phone whene its switched on

  • I have the black one and most of my friends think its an iphone 6

  • I completely disagree with you it works well and even on far signals

  • I have the p8lite and friend has j5 prime and both the front and rear cameras of the p8 lite are waaay betteeer than the j5 prime my friend hates his phone

  • A lot better buddy 1/5" sensor size 1.25um pixel size bsi and cmos -Based from advertisement

  • there's probably more apps it supported but facebook notif is blue and viber message notif is violet in my phone

  • is the gr3 camera better than Samsung j5's ?

  • Ok....thanks

  • For what purpose of blue and purple?

  • As I remember it has green, red, orange, blue and purple.

  • Do this phone ha 2 led colors?

  • Perfect phone for its price. Can really be compared to any mid range smartphone out there. No heating issues whatsoever when playing high end games. Charging is fast and the battery seems to go on and on despite being 3000mah. Only downside is 16gb abit too low memory for some users but worry not as it supports up to 256gb external memory without any problems. Another downside is the external body is very fragile as the back feels like its made of glass so users need to be extra careful.

  • If you've got the Chinese version with no Google Play Services. I've found Yalp Store works well instead of Play Store and NewPipe works instead of YouTube.

  • When I got mine the FM radio wasn't working (Chinese Version). I did a reset and after that it worked fine. Another option is the app NextRadio.

  • Do this phone ha 2 led colors?

  • I join gr3 group in facebook and i remember som 1 post that p8lite2017/gr3 will hav oreo update,but i dontknow when,maybe nxt year.

  • worst mobile for wifi.

  • I loved this phone I like blue colour

  • how did you disable it?

  • What color do you prefer? I know color blue is amazing but I think its limited only

  • Not true. It worked fine for me. Just a bunch of under the hood tweaks.

  • I have tgis phone, its almost a month with me and I had no problems with my phone. I already disabled my navigation keys and it added beauty since it is already on full screen. I used the floating dock by the way. It is over all very good phone...

  • F.m radio problem....

  • gr3 2017 = p8 lite 2017......same phone but it has 2 names

  • over all its good fone...performance, battery life, camera are good. no heating issue detected.. the only thing which bothers you is its low memory issue in 16 gb rom's set..... you have only 7 gb useable left....otherwise its a good fone...

  • P8 lite 2017 or j5 2017?

  • Pls do u know anything about huawwi gr3 2017.....

  • The update mess with your phone, currently i experienced that on cant change screen-time out, you can't change sync button on account to on/off, functionality of noutgat is taken off(example one of holding your setting icon for 5-10sec that activates hidden features). So i would be thats a No.

  • why this handset is not available in Nepal?

  • Bought it week ago. All-round good mobile. Iam so happy with the performance of this. Middle range phone. For me only thing missing is no water resistant and dustproof. But speed, camera, no heating, makes me feel great with comparing other ones i used b4 like J5, Xperia aqua M4.

  • Is the option in battery setting that lower screen resolution is working? It seems nothing changed

  • How sound quality of set? And is there any two quality available of p8 lite 2017? One is cheaper? (Specially in India-Pakistan) ?

  • Me too. Big upgrade.

  • P8 Lite 2017. Happy with it! Had J5...

  • Don't worry about it... I play Asphalt 8 : Airborne and no heating what so ever!

  • I am really concern about the heating of this device If i play high end games

  • P8 lite 2017 vs j5 prime?

  • You have to buy a Otg Cable

  • 128GB Memory Card or 256GB? Like will the 256GB affect performance or won't it be a problem? Your suggestions please and thank you in advance

  • System update think it's for EMUI 5.0 "Current version PRA-LX2C185B120" "New version PRA-LX2C185B160" What does it update and should I? Please answer, thanks in advance

  • Can we get Android 8.0 Oreo version P8 Lite 2017 ??

  • It supports OTG but you have to buy the OTG cable. Its not expensive tho.

  • USB OTG out of the box or do I have to buy a OTG Cable or something first? Please answer and thank you in advance

  • Thankyou Alex

  • Go for this phone. Snapdragon 430 is hardly operating if the screen resolution is Full HD. It had some lag if the reso is 1080x1920 but this kirin 655 can support a full HD with no lag and long battery life

  • What about its camera flash light.. Is it enough to make a perfect capture at night...? Is it just like the j7 camera flash..? Plz share ur experience..

  • Guys what is the best phone huawei p8 lite or asus zenfone 3max?

  • What version do u have that supports VoLTE? Im on B149...Vodafone delays everything...

  • This phone has a new update installed with VoLTE.. 2 patch in around 1.06GB. Its great cus they add new thing

  • Just buy a silicone case and u r safe. No need to worry

  • To those who ad this phone . Do the glass back won't break easily like Iphone 4?

  • Its silently amazing ..and im one the user and it is a sack of features... I love it . ..slim and sexy i use black colour . And its outstanding for me

  • Hei bro new p8 litw is amazing not like your old one ... Do examin the new with old bro .. im using it and im a fan of it try it .. its a sack of features...

  • I was agreeing with him, Efap. The phone is amazing.

  • I think yes but let's wait them to announce

  • Do u think it will take Android 8 Oreo?

  • dont tryto buy nokia for now still a lot of issue even the nokia 8

  • how much?

  • Yes it is supporting Usb OTG*

  • Is it good to buy than Nokia 5?

  • For to add it takes good photos back and front camera's (selfie lovers don't have to worry).

  • Tried so many phones my courier and their delivery company probably got sick of me already... Had iPhone 5s (iOS limitations denied me) had Samsung Galaxy J5, P8 Lite 2015, Nokia 3, Cell C (Local courier phone) and maybe 1 or 2 more, can't remember now... All lagged when on apps like Facebook, Instagram etc, poor battery life, lack design (except for the iPhone 5s. Okay, iPhone 5s has poor battery life, but if it wasn't for the iOS restrictions for me I would have kept it, I'm not going to lie). And just the general interaction with the other phones wasn't nice (for me). Finally I got the Huawei... P8 Lite 2017, been using it since yesterday and so far it's just amazing and for it's price range. No lag, strong battery, beautiful design, looks like quality nice in the hand. Apps like Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram and etc works like it should... Haven't experienced heating issues yet as read in reviews, doubt it will in future. I'm not sure what quality the screen protector it came out of the box is, but it looks fine, few smudges as on any other phone. Depending on how you handle it. Can't expect premium results as it's a budget phone... It comes damn close through. Great job Huawei!

  • Don't understand a word of that drivel

  • I have the old version p8lite ALE-LE21 it becomes very hang and about no charge at a normal speed.it have 2 or 3 hours have to full charge the phone and outta becomes dead as faster than it charging.so any one don't buy the phone it is a waste in my experience

  • Greetings does this phone have USB OMG?

  • Well the cpu-z finds a gyroscope

  • just bought myself one.....love it. Do i need to prepare myself for any problems that this phone might give me in future? pl

  • Many P8 Lite 2015 users had "Bending Problem" because of the battery

  • I have an older version of the P8 LITE - 2015 since when it first came out. No problems like any of any other phones I have ever had. It still works perfectly fine. I am upgrading soon and wanted to know anyone who has purchased the P8 lite what are the differences between the first one launched compared to this one (2017). I am looking at the PERFORMANCE, the memory, charging, speed, photo quality of the phone and not so much the fancy features.. I know it isnt one of the top favourites, but which one could it be matched to (of the top 10 for 2017).

  • hi i have a huawei p8 lite phone,but i don't know what's a version of my model

  • hi i have a huawei p8 lite phone,but i don't know what's a version of my model

  • P8 Lite 2017. Definitely

  • i need advice please, Which one shall i go for J5 2017, Huawei y7 prime or Huawei P8 Lite 2017?

  • This is one of the smallest portable functional smartphone ever. The functionalities are straight forward one does not need to be a rocket scientist to operate it. Bravo Huawei P8 Lite

  • Qwantum was agreeing with him. The phrase "I couldn't agree with you more" means that he agrees with the original comment so much that he doesn't have any more agreements to spare. ;-)

  • Is it better han honor 6x.?

  • This phone works fine. I'm in Germany and bought it as a contract phone. It depends on where you buy. It might be fake!

  • Oppo A57

  • I want to know they had similarities right? Acceloremeter is for Portrait or Landscape and Gyroscope is for more accurate precising

  • It does have a gyroscope. I ran several benchmark apps and they all lists gyro in the sensors section. It's always best to check this kind of information yourself, as those specifications can vary event on the official website.

  • Don't confuse gyro with accelerometer, this phone those not have a gyroscope.

  • Can you use it in that heat? Wow

  • What if I reduce the resolution of this phone(on settings>battery>reduce resolution). Did it reduce the heat of the phone?

  • When you purchase the phone brand new, it does come with a screen protector and a phone casin included in the box. It might be different for other country, so is best if you check with the seller.

  • This phone does not have any protection

  • Does the phone have a screen protector front and back preinstalled???? Because I'm planning to buy this phone. Hoping to get a reply as soon as possible.

  • Vivo v5 Honor 8 lite Moto g5 plus Among these three mobiles,can anyone tell me which one i best in allround performance.. Kindly comment.its urgent

  • Gr3 2017 or Nokia 6..... which should i buy??

  • I couldn't agree with you more.

  • Please anyone tell me that gr3/p8 lite 2017 byry peformance? How much last it with average use

  • After tow months use it's getting hot at top

  • Yeah, but when playing games in landscape you should hold it in both hands

  • which one should I buy huawei p8 lite 2017 or samsung galaxy j3 2017 or a3 2016

  • Yeah it heats on the back top. I'm not holding my phone from the top lol.

  • Can you use it in that heat? Wow

  • Official Huawei site for Greece says there isnt gyroscope but mine has.

  • Mine under the sun and while using can go up to 50 C,maybe more.

  • Yes this phone is equipped with a gyroscope

  • I have been using this phone for about a week now . And I have to say I have not experienced any problems with this phone build quality is good, battery life awesome, performance is good gaming experience is top of the deck for most games, and cameras are optimum not bad at all.. For a mid range phone this beast is excellent.

  • The phone comes equipped with a screen protector already on its screen. Huawei does it with all its phones. At least, in recent years.

  • Glass front and back with metal frame. The phone has a very premium quality feeling, although it is very slippery on smooth surfaces. It WILL glide down towards the floor on any smooth table/desk surfaces that are on an incline. That's why I bought a nice transparent soft case that grips surfaces very well.

  • Glass in front and back

  • it's plastic, glass back

  • What is its model number???

  • Nope.I'm from Sri Lanka.tnx for yr info.

  • Is Gr3 2017 is metal? Or plastic? Can't identify in pictures if it is a plastic/glass or metal/glass

  • are you from the philippines? gr3 2017 (model no pra-lx2) has gyroscope but no nfc

  • does anyone else experienced hanging on this phone? my phone hanged on apps like facebook and messenger, any idea why?

  • yes he has

  • It looks like it has a screen protector as standard is it?

  • Hey is there a gyroscope sensor in gr 3 2017?(p8 lite 2017).Huawei's official site says there is.Is it true?plzz URGENT!!!

  • Hi, really wanted twin app! This has EMUi 5 so what can't I find the app??? Help.. Really happy with the phone!

  • How does it heat? I watched some heating test in ytube and it is 42°C which I can't bear on hands

  • Thanks :3 For your answer
