Advantages: Speed of everything, design in blue and black colors, fingerprint scanner, display picture
Disadvantages: Camera sound
Comment: I was waiting for the release of this model, before it was only used by Koreans, Samsung, Oldzhi)) I was pleased with the phone with the colorful screen and speed, really smart device, but it doesn’t get warm, the battery holds up enough for a day, but with a sound yes for 30 pieces could have done better, the camera is average, pale while trying to adjust both contrast and saturation, but still not what I expected from the quality of photos, the assembly is at a height without backlash, squeaks, etc., etc., I really hope that the device will not let me down not for one year.

Advantages: Design, camera, screen, speed, autonomy, price, blue sapphire is gorgeous, warranty on glass
Disadvantages: Cover required
Comment: Very smart phone, there was an opportunity to buy an iPhone 7, but decided to take it because of the great design, and of course the difference in price is just huge. Of course, the iPhone Seven will be faster for a split second, but there is no need for that. As for the sound in the headphones, I did not notice any special differences with other smartphones. In general, the phone came out pretty well, I advise you to take it.

Advantages: design, stuffing, nfc, cameras
Disadvantages: in the Russian version there is no record of the conversation, brand
Comment: This phone was purchased in return for the Huawei P9 lite. In June, it was possible to buy a regular P9, but ... I need an NFC sensor, and in P9 it is only in single-value, which was not on sale then. I'm in love with Honor, he's awesome.Stylish design, good hardware, great cameras. In principle, I wanted him even from the moment of his announcement))) He knows absolutely everything, only in the Russian version is the possibility of recording conversations. Very comfortable in the hand, does not slow down. And, a nice bonus, the simultaneous operation of two sim cards. It looks very nice in the glass, but at the same time it is marquee, which is decided by buying aks. Excellent battery that lives hell long. I definitely recommend to buy

Advantages: Productive. The battery holds for a long time. Nice. Good camera. A complete set of interfaces including IR port.
Disadvantages: Slippery. The design is clearly with iPhone lapped.
Comment: With my mode of use, the battery keeps 2 days: 10 days a day for talking, 2 hours on the Internet, 2 hours of music.
There are all interfaces: the TV can now be switched from the phone. And pay by phone in stores.
The blue color of the case looks great.
The dual camera did not hit the incredible shots, but they are better than colleagues on the 6th iPhone.
Slippery. Slips out of his pants pocket as soon as I sit down on the sofa. Already fell from the hands. Have to hide all the beauty in the case.
The video in my opinion rather mediocre shoots for a camera of this level.
The interface is neat and quality. Without lags and freezes.

Comment: I bought a phone for my wife as a gift.
Well, he is really unreal beautiful :)
On applications flies, a bunch of free RAM (about 2.4 GB).
Of course, you just need to buy a silicone bumper, otherwise it's scary to touch.
The camera has an interesting function of changing the aperture, due to which you can focus on different objects and after shooting you can play with the photo.
It is not yet clear why the Megaphone connection disappears. I put in both slots - the situation does not change. Need to understand.
The battery runs a little more than a day with moderate use. But it charges fast.
My wife is very pleased with the phone! And this is the main thing :)

Comment: For all my life I changed about 30 devices. Among them, most were on the android. But not one of them caused me such delight. I took this Honor 8 to replace Xiaomi Mi 5. The difference, in my opinion, is simply huge. Despite the fact that Xiaomi Snapdragon 820, and he is gaining significantly more points in Antutu, Honor's speed is much higher. The camera is just gorgeous. I compare with the Galaxy S6 Edge, the pictures are much clearer and brighter. I have never seen such a high speed of file sharing in any device (from a flash drive to internal memory and back, with a laptop via USB, with a laptop via wifi). The battery lives very long, enough for 2 days of active use. Also a very rich selection of power saving modes. There is even such a feature "to lower the screen resolution to 1280: 720". Really saves battery. No device I have not lived for so long. Design is a pleasure. I wanted to take in blue, but it was only 32 gigabytes, unfortunately. He took the gold, did not regret it at all. The location of the fingerprint on the back is a very controversial decision, but the print itself works perfectly. A very useful thing is the "smart button" (on which the fingerprint is located). When you click on it, you can choose which application to launch.(I chose a short press to start the camera, a long press to start the flashlight, double-click to launch the Shazam). LTE catches even in the country. Prior to that, 4G there caught only on another Huawei from a friend. The EMUI shell is very like, almost no different from MIUI. Missing all Chinese pre-slag. After the purchase, on the first day, I unlocked the bootloader, got the root, installed Xposed. Demolished all unnecessary Google software. The process of unlocking the bootloader is very complicated, in the sense that the work of Chinese sites leaves much to be desired. I just did not like the sound: both in headphones and in dynamics. What it hurts quiet and not voluminous. But in general, I am incredibly happy to use this phone and I consider it the best in its price category.

Comment: A lot of phones were intact: iPhones, androids, and blackberry. And frankly I feel puppy delight from o-laaniya this phone. He's just super, android dopilen, the shell is not bad. A similar delight at one time was from iphone 6plus. Now, sincerely I do not understand why to pay more for Samsung and iPhones, when there is something like that

4. High-quality body and performance

6. 2 sim cards in simultaneous mode
7. High-quality software (firmware first). Everything is translated correctly, thoughtfully, there are various intellectual functions in the settings.

2. A couple of times bluetooth fell off when connected to the car. but always easily restored
3. No wireless charging

Comment: In general, a very good machine, excellent price / quality ratio and no worse than the flagships, especially in the category no more than 5.2 inches diagonal. Even with the opportunity to take the phone for 50 thousand I decided to take this honor 8 and did not lose.
Later, I will complement the review, if there is something significant from the experience of exploitation

Advantages: Design. Cameras. Speed of work Screen. Autonomy. Fingerprint sensor
Disadvantages: Tight SIM slot and memory card Tight charging slot. The sound is somehow incomprehensible (loud music, quiet calls, 100% that the matter is in the software, I think in the future will finish)
Comment: The phone left the best impression. Very good Beautiful design. The build quality and how it lies in the hand + screen cover and sensor (compare with the Korean flagship S6 that died after 7 months, just turned off everything) Screen Pts. high-quality and beautiful (about as in an iPhone or 6S), I liked it more than the praised amolead (which, at the slightest deviation, gave out a rainbow and spoiled the whole impression, in S6 only black was liked). The speed of work is just a bomb, no brakes or lags (S6 really did not slow down the identity, in this part everything was fine).The fingerprint scanner is also a button (with S6 is no comparison at all, I consider S6 / S7 sensors to be the most terrible even if you take which thread is cheap China, by the way, most of all infuriated in S6, when you can’t unlock stupidly and from the 10th time stupid to call) the camera is at least as good as the S6, and the focusing speed and everything else on the camera in Honor is much better (the video is true because of the lack of stabilization loses S6, well, 4 doesn’t write to the identity, but S6 writes in 4k no more than 5min it heats up like an iron). By sound true Honor Pts. S6 is very inferior, the external speaker (which I consider to be one of the best in S6 / S7) is strange here, you immediately get the impression of software or codec flaws, because the music through a third-party player loses well, but that’s the melody of the call ( very quiet), that in the built-in player, none at all, i.e. just playing, neither top, nor bottom, just sound and everything. By autonomy, again, the praised Amoleda was barely enough for me from 8-00 and until 16-00 when watching YouTube and listening to music in Honor, with the same use at 16-00, 40-55% remains. In short, buying Pts. satisfied.
