Huawei P8lite ALE-L04 - User Reviews

  • it works great. Great phone all the features you want. No complaints

  • Europe version only

  • Very great phone. But if you have had a Samsung or any other 1080p and up display you don't want to use it. I had a Samsung galaxy A5 2017 and i gave it back to the carrier. I had to use it. I was very unhappy becuse the display looked so bad. But now i have the S8 and im in love with it. (Sorry im from latvia and my english will have some problems)

  • not otg ?

  • Sorry to break it to you but this has happened to me as well and I'm pretty sure we're not the only ones. This has happened to a lot of these types of phones. It's a problem with the motherboard and the repair cost is more then the phone itself which is crazy. Sorry to hear this happened to your phone.

  • Love this phone :) fast, smooth and very affordable.

  • theres a chip on mother board for wifi and bluetooth that got damaged. ive the same issue. this phone is a totally gross. and loss of money bcz of this issue. repairing cost 8300 with no guarantee

  • I've been using my phone for 2 months only but suddenly, its WiFi and bluetooth is not turning on. What would I do to enable it? I've been turning my phone on and off many times. Please help me :(

  • How do I connect to WiFi with this fon? Having major trouble doing that now

  • Here are my pros and cons Pros -First 6 months was great -Love the 30s low battery warning -Themes / UI is great but thats like that for most androids (Although the themes are kinda limited but they have some great ones) -Nice design on the back -LED Notification light, I have like 3 different lights flashing to let me know whats going on (messages wise) Cons -Price (you'll understand why) -Phone gets hot easily -Camera is REALLY bad. Pictures are blurry even when I steady my shots -Camera is slow and takes awhile to snap, once you snap you got to hold it there for a few seconds but even so its a bit blurry -Video recording issues. I had to constantly keep reinstalling so the video recording works on apps -After 6 months of useage, > Low storage, Android took up almost 30% of the storage even though I disabled quite a bit of the apps (Disabling all the big apps will bring your quality to a huge downgrade...) >Ram issues, I was able to have a very low amount of apps running otherwise if I don't close them nothing else will load >Battery issues, 20-30 hours of inactivity will shut phone off. I had roughly under 4 hours of surfing the net on low brightness (roughly 25-30% brightness) phone dies >Phone randomly freezes (with no apps running / storage cleared up) >Pulling phone out of the pocket or trying to change the volume the "default" push volume button brought up camera and snapped instantly... ---> I have done A LOT of trouble shooting to try fix some these errors including factory resets and not much changes still same issue/errors Don't get me wrong I love Huawei but this phone p8lite ale-l04 is really not worth it and one of the worst phone I have ever bought. I am now using the p10 which is AMAZING

  • Great phone but not enough memory, and heating up and battery not lasting so much. the p9 lite with 3gb ram is a lot better and the price is very good too. p8 lite is very good for people using only for taking pictures phone calls and text messaging. if you use web, emails and videos, it get a bit slow.

  • its awesome cell phone...am using it since last feb...no lag...no heat up........best camera selfie mode...thru front cam....my cell phone will complete 1 year next month...best choice of my life...

  • Yes, Use the SIM tool comes with your phone to open the SIM slot, the empty slot is your sim2.

  • i do get 4 g signal , and it is fast with downloads , also this phone had duel sim function how do i put second sim inn , in memory card slot ? and how

  • let us know whether phone is suitable for 4g

  • I have had one of these phones for a few months now. Very pleased although it is nothing special in terms of design. Awesome battery life, good reception, and all around great device. The only issue I have had is lack of proper fitting good cases, and the hole on top can often me mistaken for the sim card tray removal.

  • pls dont hesitate. this is the best phone model we ever had.

  • give your phone to the dealer asap. they will fix

  • 100/100 agreed. actually better than samsung phones. Pros: 2 gb ram gives perfect speed, no lagging, battery is superb, ambient sensor works well, lovely slim design never slip and drop from hand, after upgrading to 6.0 its gives perfect function than before. Less heat when playing games and browsing. Cons : internal memory not enough to games players, 2 nd sim slot is hybrid so when u use a memory chip cant use the second sim, vice versa.

  • I am using Huawei P8 lite mobile phone. It is very user friendly phone. It is better than samsung galaxy J7. I like it.

  • Yes u r right i have many dots and one big damn crack on back however the best u get in small bucka

  • I think only this pbm is with u . Everything is perfect according to my view !

  • I used to be a sony xperia fan before, until I started using huawei, love it

  • best phone ever.....everything is just amazing about the phone

  • best phone ever

  • this is the best phone i ever used very good speed and awesome technology...

  • There is NO update for the USA ALE-L04 Version... Phone is poor quality. Wifi wont connect half the time, calls drop, and the thing locks up constantly..

  • Hi After updating to Android 6, no browser , no inbuilt touch lock and some other inbuilt apps are missing .... pls HELP !!!!!!!!!!!

  • best phone i ever ownd is the huawei p8lite

  • One of the best phones I've ever had in my life This phone is even best than the Samsung S6. I would highly recommend it to anyone who likes best performance technology. Best camera ever and best lenses because they are like the Sony's. The only bad thing about the phone is the hot battery

  • best phone for the money, strong glass, Gorilla 3, dropped few times not a dint, best photos and videos, lots of memory and slot for extra, for $200 on amazon, unblocked, hooked up to H2O server, good to go

  • Do not buy this piece of sh!t. Especially in Canada and especially with KitKat build ending in B131. You're going to be stuck on KitKat forever.

  • it supports OTG

  • worst UX i have experienced. they should hire professional to give them UX solutions. they saying 13MP camere, and its worst then 5MP. previously i was using LG Fino it had 8MP camera and its far far better then this. now i m trying to sell this piece junk product my Suggestion to everyone --- DO NOT BUY

  • ar u kidden me?huawei 5x

  • Good day everyone. I have a choice between this Honor 5x and P8-Lite. Which would you choose and why?

  • Just got this phone but having trouble when I go 2 unlock it or answer a call it goes 2 another screen with a picture of the phone and all it says is don't block the top of the screen. All I have is a clear plastic screen protector attached to the screen.

  • Superb mobile.connectivity is very fast.very cool.buy it

  • Its a Dual sim but if you want to use external memory you cant use the second sim card.....because the sim 2 and the sd card share the same space

  • I am going to buy this mobile...any tell me wt about this battery life and camera quality

  • Yes , nice & easy

  • negative : The worst keyboard ever as you have to type the word more than two times just to make it correct , very week soft body as every time you drop the mobil it will leave a bad mark . Positive : good processor & speed performance, clear cam , lite

  • Hi, can one download/open adobe documents easily?

  • I need help I'm confused not to buy if the 5X phone or Huawei Honor P8 lite please help ..... !!!

  • Huawei p8lite or honor 5x best which I buy

  • Just got this phone .phone came with Android 5.1 already installed. Also has a screen protector on it very nice. Phone is great for the price. Not as fast as my galaxy s6 or iPhone 6 but still pretty fast. Wish the screen was brighter even at full brigtness the screen i s alittle to dim when outdoors but still usable. Hopefully huawei updates the US version to marshmallow .

  • Very very good. Fast on internet and fast moving for apps. Easy to use. Good camera. Realy nice experience when listening music on it. This is my second Huawei phone and now I am fan Huawei. My next phone will be of course, a Huawei.

  • Best Phone Ever I have use in my life I have use lots of Mobiles before using this mobile but My P8 Lite is simply owsmmmmmm No heating issue Long Battery time sound is owsmmmm. Love you Huawei... :)

  • This is what I've been looking for i got 2 month in my hands wow with the 4G it let me get anything i want in time, with Datas is less consuming unlike Samsung I really recommend it all over #SA

  • You can purchase it from Wal-Mart as ell

  • Im using this phone..compare to all phone at the same price...this is much better.. camera,performance,do a good job..battery life not bad if use lower brightness and use battery saving mood.. im not regret bought this phone...

  • This is a great phone in general. Bought it for my wife when she lost her previous phone. Purchased it for about $200 in June 2015 from Frys in Illinois. It worked great, but my wife dropped it and cracked the glass heavily. LCD is still fine. Spent months trying to get it fixed but no one could order a new screen. Just recently found replacement screens for $25 on eBay, so I'm going to purchase and fix and then carry it as a backup to my Samsung Galaxy S6 Active.

  • I am using this phone for 5 months.this is good as a whole.bad side is charge capacity. i have faced one problem also. after using for few days i am now don't get access to the computer or laptop as the phone does not get the connecting options. may be its a software problem. camera or video quality is awesome.

  • This phone is basically a smaller version of the phone that I used in July 2015, that I kept in my pocket for the month of May 2015. The phone was great as it fit my pockets and it only has minimal sacrifices. I would recommend this phone entirely.

  • it's 4G enabled. store rep told me that it was from UK

  • Is this phone support video call without using 3rd party apps like skyp emo etc.?

  • Bought this version from best buy, was 4glte and os upgraded to 5.1 so winner

  • Are you in US? Is this version ALE-L04 really an US version? Can you get 4G LTE because a friend told me that phones from China only receive only 3G.

  • L21 has hikirin cpu and mali gpu but L04 has snapdragon cpu and adreno gpu which I thing is better one..

  • Is there Light Painting feauture on this?

  • I can not find anything, anywhere, stating that this model has NFC [Near Field Communication], other models do. The people saying "yes" might need to check their sources. This model does have WiFi Direct & Hotspot functions, as well as Bluetooth, which are similar in purpose (communication between devices) but not the same in function or feature. Strictly speaking, NFC is very limited, contact or near contact distance, fine for payment systems, not so good for sending a file across the room, or linking two devices to co-op in a game. Between WiFi Direct & Bluetooth, almost all your needs should be covered. If you truly need NFC, this phone does not have it, in any specification I can find.

  • I was able to buy this phone Dec 5th, at Best Buy for $169.99 with a price match on a Target website sale (no longer running as of Dec 7th). It shipped with Android 5.1 & EU 3.1 already installed, no updates available. The phone has been activated with Tracfone without issue, using a $4.50 Sim kit (also Best Buy) on an existing account. I have installed, and the phone recognizes a 64GB microSD card. I was able to delete the OK Google bar, without issue. You cannot remove certain apps from the screen and there is not a button to bring up all the apps. You can make a folder, and place all unwanted apps icons in that folder, and rename it Apps. So Far, so good. Nice screen, custom power / access settings per app, and general. Coming from an 8GB phone (moto e 2nd Gen) there is plenty of space for apps. Phone is very responsive, with 2GB and [Dual Quad core CPUs] has some minor interactive issues (icons & rotation), but that might be fixed in an update someday. For my needs, 16GB, Good Cameras (13MP & 5MP) 5" Screen, It is a excellent upgrade that will last me a couple years. I can get through the day with about half a battery left, mainly messaging & translation apps (all day), some app downloads, and playing with the camera. A little tweaking and the new toy luster wearing off a bit, it should be a two day phone. At the deal I got it for, no-brainer, but I would have, and almost did bite at $200, and would not have felt cheated at that price. Close enough to spec with $400 phones, to feel good.
