Mate 8 EMUI 5.0 - Mate 8 General

Hi guys
i'm an Windows Phone user and i want to move to Android due the lack of support for Windows Phone
i have a good phone with +10 hours SOT and full day and a half
and i want to inform about mate 8
how is the battery life and how much SOT you get when you are using it for some web browsing and chat facebook and taking shots and calls
and will it get EMUI 5.0 update beside the Android N update or it will stick with 6.0.1
and does it have now EMUI 4.1 ?

Mate 8, I am sure you will love it!
Android 7 is also coking soon.

So nova plus over mate 8 :laugh:
thanks

He have only one problem, unlock bootloader is not easy and you and you will have to pay 4 € / $...Unless you do not want to do it, but you will have some Chinese content, otherwise, mate 8 is the only phone which never heats, but then really never, the games on, turn much better than on an s7 edge (or any other android phone except the mate 9 ^ ^ and maybe iphones)
And with this, the battery is crazy, i have 264 user apps and have no lag...crazy...and i have try Emui 5.0, it's more good than 4.1, but i want root to restore my data so i stay on emui 4.1 (Kangvip 368 is the best for me)

I was a big fan of Samsung phones. I got Note 4 which was flagship... and then I got Mate 8. And then I realize that there is no phone. Just Mate. For sure.
This phone is like Black Pearl from Pirates of the Caribean. SO fast, so good. And everyone wants to have it
And samsung flagship is like a fishing boat.
Thats everything i got to say here. BUY OR DIE!

Dude, you'll only gonna find mate 8 fans here. The choice, ultimately is yours. Look at phone specs/cost/performance and you'll know which phone to go for.

Talk band makes even more sense now, in light of the x2.
Nice one,
I have preordered mediapad x2 and talkband b2 for the following reasons:
1. I need dual-SIM since I travel abroad very often.
2. I would like to read PDFs and watch movies when I'm in a train and 7" fits the requirement very well.
3. Keep minimum devices on the way.
4. Don't want to keep a phone in hands when talking.
So my mate 7 will go to my wife, though she has honor 6
And now I can put my kindle DX into my home museum

Yeah! Too bad they didnt review the x1 on android authority. Thats where i saw the review of HAM7. It was nice and not boring to watch. Wish they would review the x2 there this time. Its a real head turner for me. Better than the ipad mini cuz you can make a call and msm.

it is too big... mostly too wide... 1 centimer more wide 3 centimeter higher....
A 5.5 inch mate 7 with even more slimmed body to screen ratio would be perfekct I think!

Ascend name is wiped not used anymore..
Don't know I think P8 Max is replacement of Mate 7 .. But maybe not as they introduced Kirin 940 and 950 still for this year ..
Are we getting the new EMUI 3.1 ? With camera app updates ? :'(
I'd like to have that camera in my Mate 7 ... though to be honest, the Mate 7's camera performs much better than I anticipated, and I'm usually very happy with the results.
The trouble with smartphones is, your new model will *always* be outdated a year after it's come on the market. There will *always* be something newer and better. The Mate 7 is still and will be for at least another year or two a strong performer.
Also ... 6.8" ... really? That's almost the size of the MediaPad X2, and that thing is a monster ... but then again, a couple years ago we thought 5" phones were monsters ...

Prefere mate 7 size, its perfect. Be nice just to have something very similar later this year with just hardware upgrade.

I agree. The size of the HAM7 is almost the sweet spot for a phablet. Not too big, but big enough. A better HAM7 would just have better specs and materials. A more power efficient Processor and GPU. A bigger battery if they can squeeze it in. it would be cool if they can make an active version like Samsung. I don’t care if take out the scanner to do this. Good luck with Huawei to win new buyers!

Am drooling just thinking about this P8 Max as have been waiting for eternity for this screen size. There was rumour of chinese one last year (Hisense) but it was never launched, so waiting eagerly for this. A Z-ultra user.

The camera did get a lot of "****" in reviews of Mate 7, but that was because the camera was simply 1 year behind the competition, but it means also that the camera performs as the top end of phones one year ago... Samsung with its s6 is probably one year behind all other phones on the market now.

Here's another article that just came out this morning...
Rumor: Huawei Mate 9 With Kirin 960 To Land Later This Year
Seems a bit too soon to me, but a lot of manufacturers seem to want to jump on the VR bandwagon, and I'd imagine Huawei wants in to, so they may want to get a higher speced phone with the latest chipset out quickly.
And after the words of the Huawei CEO Yu Chengdong very probably the future Mate 9 will have a 2k display for a better virtual reality experience.

I'm curious to see how the Mali T880MP4 will perform with a QHD display.
I agree that the Mali T880MP4 GPU is good enough for normal use but not the top for extreme gaming, maybe the next Mate 9 GPU will fill (at least partially) the gap with the competitors.

Yep, I'm selling mine as well, just got the Nexus 6P.

Mate 8 is my new Mate... Farwell Note 4...

Hi guys,
i'm brand new here and I just wanna say that I got brand new Huawei Mate 8 (3 GB RAM, 32 ROM). I've sold my Note 4 (910F) and so far... I'm so happy! I was scared at first but now... WOW!
Huawei is that what I was looking for. It is blazing fast, astonishing phone with multiple options that I wanted.
First of all EMUI is WAY MUCH prettier than ugly TouchWiz. I got everything what I wanted - for example Theme support. My note 4 is sooo old that samsung wont provide theme engine for my touchwiz. Thank you samsung for that btw...
Second of all - its blazing fast ! Way much faster than TW from Samsung. Less ram leak, apps are loading faster. I really like this speed... Afret flashing clean rom on samsung it was never that fast. Dunno why, its just this.
And battery life - 92% from this morning. Not bad for 6"0 inch screen. Maybe its less colour, maybe its not EPICULTRAHD resolution, but who cares... its a phone, not a TV.
Im glad that I've become a Huawei family member. It was a good chocie.
So - hello guys. I'll try to do my best to help you with your phone problems and I hope you will help me.
Good morning Huawei!
Coming from the galaxy s5 i can kind of say i know the spot you were in. Samsung phones are extremely expensive but you get very little for such a high price. Compared to the galaxy s7, the huawei mate 8 beats it in everything but camera. Honestly though, its a phone not a Nikon. The speed is due to the CPU of the phone being an in house item. Huawei made the CPU themselves so they can make the necessary optimizations to run android how they want it to run. I suggest picking up a case for the phone. Screen protector is optional. It comes with one but it has Gorilla Glass 4 on it so scratching the device would be quite difficult unless one was doing so on purpose. I suggest rooting this device and swapping the kernel governor to something other than the stock interactive governor. I use ondemand because it really gets that CPU where you want it to be and saves battery at all costs. Other than that if you have rooting trouble or unlocking trouble there are some nice threads to do a bit of looking around. Enjoy the phone!
Thanks bro for the reply. Im not sure if I will loose my warranty... I did it with samsung and my glass broke on it (famous screen delamination, i got same **** in note 2, now note 4) and they told me to FU because of 0x1 knox...
My phone came with a plastic protection on the back (they attached it) and glass protector on the front. <3 them for this.
Can i root my huawei and not loose warranty?
I used for a few weeks MIUI system, and I miss some options - for example creating my own profile for battery (turn off 4G/LTE, battery saver profile etc running from 12am-6am)
Love my mate 8. If the honor note 8 is anything close I'm buying. Need my 2k res back.
Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-L29 using Tapatalk
I am running both the Note 4 and Mate 8. Love my Mate 8 though. Battery life for the Mate is an easy 3 days for me. Note 4 is only 2 days generally.
After 3 days of using (normal use for me, sometimes internet, sometimes making some calls and texting some messages) i got 16% and i cant discharge it ! I gave up and plugged it into a charger. IT AMAIZING how long can it live!
Note 4 was dead after day and a half. Max !
I would make some changes in this phone, but still - i love it!
indeed, the only changes id want to make were software-based and thats easily taken care of with custom roms and mods

Here is where we stand
Look here
Replacement for my Mate2
My Huawei Ascend Mate2, little over 2 years old....LOVE IT still. Still getting 2 days battery life.
Using STOCK 5.1, Nova Launcher Prime, buttery smooth, but I think it's about time for an update.
Now that the Mate8 has dropped to a reasonable price. Might be time to pull the trigger and upgrade?
Stable, long battery life and good camera quality is what I usually go for.
I know the Mate8 will be stable & long battery life. How's the camera quality?
I don't use the stock camera app, just Camera FV-5 full version.

I've had a Mate2, SD400, 13mp camera. With the default camera app, it's "not bad", but with Camera FV-5, it's pretty good.

I just bought the phone, don't have it yet.
As for screen protectors/cases etc, I've never used a screen protector or case
in the last 10-15 years. I use a belt pouch, and bluetooth, so there isn't any need
for protection. Let you know Wed-Thur how it goes.
i understand, but u surely know which color, storage and ram config you bought?

Mate 9 isn't up for the release so soon
See

Huawei Mate 9 leaks in high resolution images 2 days in advance of release.

The Huawei Mate 9, which will be officially announced this month, has appeared in high resolution leaked photos showing the final unit with Leica-engineered dual-camera setup.
The leaked photos are consistent with material that's surfaced previously, showcasing a big metal smartphone with a dual-camera setup, accompanied by a dual-LED flash and laser autofocus module.
The handset is rumored to have a 5.9-inch display with 1080p resolution and is to be powered by the Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 960 flagship-tier processor, paired with up to 6GB of RAM and up to 128GB of storage. The Huawei Mate 9 allegedly runs Android 7.0 Nougat skinned with the manufacturer's EMUI 5.0 interface.

Plus, the Kirin 960 isn't much faster as well (for non-gamers that is as the GPU-side however is massively quicker (but current games run just fine on the 950 as well, imho)) and pretty expensive so will hold onto the Mate 8 for the time being :good:
it is all about the price about this one, I am also disspointed with the camerabump and camera modul, it looks not very stylish and not up to huawies recent standards.
I am a gamer so for personally k960 is very much neeeded. The picture abouve I still see black borders against the screen this is disappointing, I think otherwise Nubia Z9 has done very good with this and I wish all other manufactures would do the same to create borderless screen
The leaks seem to be getting confirmed (or thrown out) as the 4th approaches. On a Note 4 (but running Note 7 softwate) and have a ROM'd MediaPad X2 (which was a PITA to update) . So I like rooted Huawei devices with new ROMs so looking at 3 very different devices:
In the spirit of the thread, my first pick
- Mate 9 mostly for the great devs here. Nougat would be a bonus, and hopefully chainfires work can be brought over. Not global (or including 4g then off the list.
- LeEco LePro 3 with flash rebate it is absurdly affordable and reasonably reviewed as a whole. Only 5.5 is a real deal thinker. 5.9 on the Mate much better by leaps and jumps ahead.
- Lenovo Phab Pro 2 out (for ordering) now, but holding for the Huawei intro press conference on the 4th. Bigger (like the 6.4), much less performance wise.
Two pictures from the phone.
Does anyone know the URL to watch the live feed today?

Nice phone with nice price lol
Assuming this will be available in the US on the Huawei website as an unlocked version you can use in the US?
Opinion on it being my next phone over my Nexus 6p?
Two sensors (20MP+12MP) 4K video + OIS, new CPU, new GPU, Android 7.0, IR blaster, USB Type-C. Good update over Mate 8.
"Porsche Design" will be not for everyone. Especially design quite like Samsung - front main button ... and price of course.

What was that about making EMUI 5 more like a stock? LOL
Won't complain though. The light filter is the only thing I miss (no root). Let's hope we will get it too.
i like the tighter spacing in the quick settings, finally we can cram more settings in there and use the available space properly
Sent from my Huawei Mate 8 NXT-AL10

I love my Nexus 6p but I'm starting to get the itch. I'm hoping this comes out soon tho, what do you think of the Pixel XL?
How do you have your 6p set up? ... I wanted to put on the 7.1 Pure Nexus but I'm not really wanting to do a fresh reset on my phone.
You got out of Akron you lucky dog haha

Yes, can't wait to see the Mate 9! The Pixel xl is under specs and over priced for me. I'm on Nitrogen OS N 7.1 after a clean install & all is good!
I revisit family in akron every few years, but only in the summer!

Yeah, that's how I feel about the Pixel, but it being a new phone I'm like "man, I want a new phone" haha. This 6p has me loving Huawei. Best phone I've ever had ... I may try the 7.1 Pure Nexus tonight and just bite the bullet of a clean install.
