Huawei Ascend P8 - smartphone, impressive with itstechnical characteristics, as well as image component. The compact device is perfect for those who appreciate style and design in gadgets, and for those who value iron and multimedia capabilities. Let's evaluate all the advantages and disadvantages of this model.
Huawei Ascend P8 looks pretty expensive andnicely. The material was plastic, but the device received a metallic edging. The body type is monolithic, the back cover is not removable, so the battery can not be changed here. In this regard, the connectors for memory cards and SIM cards are located on the sidewall of the phone. One tray is designed exclusively for SIM cards, the second is a combined one, so it accepts both SIM cards and flash drives. For some it may be a disadvantage, as users will have to choose between using two SIM cards at once or by expanding the memory with a flash drive.
The display, which occupies almost the entire front panel,has a noticeable scope. They turned out not that very large, but still from an aesthetic point of view they do not look particularly nice. The speaker is only one: it is located at the bottom of the smartphone. This decision of the developers can be called successful, since in those cases when the device lies on the plane, the speaker does not cover anything, so the sound of the signal is always clearly heard. At first glance, it seems that there are two speakers in the smartphone, since the hole parallel to the first resembles an additional speaker in parallel. In fact, it's just a microphone - that's such a small bluff.
The design of the Huawei Ascend P8 is great:nothing creaks or lyuftit. The gadget is convenient to use and store it in your pocket, and the attractive strict external appearance will emphasize the status of the device owner.
The overall dimensions of the device 143h70h7,7, weight - 131 grams.
The size of the display is 5 inches at a resolution of 720p.The pixel density is 294 ppi. The screen is developed using the IPS-matrix and looks quite decent. The colors are saturated, the viewing angles are not ideal, but still they can not be called a drawback. In bright light, information is discernible, so that the smartphone is convenient to use even in direct sunlight.
The sensor turned out to be rather bright and excellentresponds to the touch. Scrolling through the menu items is a pleasure: nothing slows down and there are no delays. An interesting feature of the phone: now the screen will be unlocked, carrying out a double tap on the display - no more svaypov and inputs of various combinations.
It is worth noting that 5 inches is enoughA decent display size, which should be set to Full HD. 720p here look decent, but still the picture is not perfect, and it is clear that for such a diagonal of simple HD is not enough. Pixels are almost unnoticeable when used, so you do not have to worry about it, but you want to see a sharper and better image, say, while watching a movie in high definition or playing.
As the platform was chosen Android 5.0 (Lollipop). The model is installed eight-core processor Hisilicon Kirin 620, running at 1.2 GHz. The gadget has 2 GB of RAM and a quad-core graphics accelerator ARM Mali-T628. 16 GB are available for data storage, which are expanded with micro-SD memory cards. Huawei Ascend P8 Lite accepts flash drives up to 128 GB. From the interfaces there are: Wi-Fi 802.11, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, NFC, IrDA and micro-USB.
The processor in Huawei Ascend P8 16Gb is enoughgood, that's just the frequency of the nucleus would be slightly increased for total delight. 2 GB of RAM - a pretty standard figure for phones of this price segment: after all, 3 GB is usually put in more expensive devices. Pleases a generous amount of memory for data storage - 16 GB, - available by default. If they are not enough, the gadget will be able to install a flash drive up to 128 GB, but, as already mentioned above, in this scenario, the use of two sim cards simultaneously becomes impossible.
In AnTuTu Huawei Ascend P8 showed very goodresults, overtaking many competitors. This contributed to the 64-bit architecture, which allows the smartphone to work smartly and without any errors. Most modern applications are comfortably used on this device. Of course, in some cases, a shortage of RAM is quite noticeable, but overall the system does not work out any censures.
Good stuffing allows you to run on HuaweiAscend P8 Lite is a very beautiful and powerful game. Enjoy the gameplay on the device - a pleasure: loaded applications quickly and work fine. Of course, in the most top projects on the maximum settings of graphics without lags will not work, but we recall that with all its merits, the model is still not the flagship, capable of launching anything.
While using games on the Huawei Ascend P8Lite Dual there is a slight flaw: when the phone turns in a horizontal position, the palm of your right hand lies flat on the speaker, somewhat muffling it. Given that most toys are adapted to the horizontal position of the gadgets, there may be some problems with the volume of the melodies. Perhaps, for some, this aspect is not critical at all.
The main camera Huawei Ascend P8 Dual has inits asset is 13 megapixel, autofocus and LED flash. With sufficient lighting, for example, during a day shooting outdoors, the optics produces a very decent image quality: there is almost no noise, the details of the objects are good, the color rendition is normal. With artificial lighting, the camera behaves no worse. We note excellent detail when shooting near objects. But the less light, the more the quality of photos falls. The detailing begins to hamper, noise appears in the image (this is especially noticeable on black and dark objects) and other negative factors appear. The flash, although not bad, but not outstanding, so you should not wait for good quality in poor lighting conditions or when shooting at night.
About the functional cameras do not have much to say,The present set of options is quite typical for most devices. There are various filters, panorama, HDR option, which perfectly copes with its work, and other ordinary functions. Also worth noting that the gadget is able to shoot video with a resolution of 1080p. The developers obviously did not stress the rich effects of the camera effects.
Front camera Huawei Ascend P8 Black excellentsuitable for self-images. Optics makes a photo with a maximum resolution of 5 megapixels. This is enough to get a good image and put it on a social network or just add it to your gallery. The front camera has one very interesting feature - a mirror. Not only that, when this option is activated, the smartphone will be used as a full-fledged mirror, this function also has various additional effects. For example, if we click on the screen, artificial cracks will disperse on the mirror, and when we blow into the location of the microphone, the screen will fog like a real glass, and with the help of svayp it will be wiped, like a sweated bathroom mirror or a window on a frosty day .
Although there is only one speaker here, it gives out the soundIt's amazing, especially in movies and games. However, previously we discussed the location of the sound hole: in one case it is a plus - the speaker is not clamped when the phone is in a reclining position, and in the other - a minus, because during the game, the hole for sound covers the palm. When watching a movie, a smartphone can easily be taken in such a way that the hand does not cover the speaker, and so you can enjoy the melodies of your favorite movies with amazing effects. Speaking of loudness, we note that it is above average.
The smartphone can be used as an mp3 playerand listen to the songs through the headset. The standard headphones included in the kit clearly leave much to be desired, so for a better effect it is recommended to purchase a more expensive headset, preferably a vacuum one, then the quality of the gadget's music will pleasantly surprise.
The Huawei Ascend P8 Dual Sim is not fixedbattery capacity of 2200 mAh. In the talk mode, the battery will last up to 20 hours, in standby mode - up to 500. Very decent performance, given the relatively small battery capacity. A great influence on the long work had, of course, the resolution, which here is the usual HD. With a moderate use of the device may well suffice for 1.5-2 days of offline use. With active listening to tracks, using the Internet and watching movies, this figure will decrease by one and a half, and even twice.
Before us is a good device with an attractiveand a high-quality casing, a good screen, an eight-core processor and a loud speaker. We note the lack of Full HD resolution, the small frequency of each processor core and, perhaps, the price that starts from the mark of 13,990 rubles - the bar is clearly somewhat overstated. Nothing truly astonishing phone has not demonstrated and showed itself, rather, as a middle peasant, rather than a device close to the flagships. Of course, we can not but rejoice about the presence of 4G and NFC, a large display, compact size and other advantages of the device, but in some places the developers, frankly speaking, were too short.
Use Huawei Ascend P8 Lite Dual Whiteit is convenient to almost everyone: its ease and practicality are noted. Those who are uncomfortable to use the device with both hands, use the option of one hand, somewhat simplifying the work. The design of the model is all praised: the owners believe that here the Chinese coped well with their work.
The screen in most received enoughpositive feedback, but there were some shortcomings. The viewing angles strongly distort the color rendering, also the resolution is only 720p, and for many it is a critical drawback. Advantages consist in bright and sated colors, good work of multitouch and a nice interface of the device. Problems with the use of the sensor among users were not found.
The camera was mostly criticized, rather thanpraise. The quality of shooting does not justify the expectations, the functionality is not rich, and at night the flash illuminates badly the objects being photographed. It is also noted that the pictures taken in poor light conditions have a lot of noise and some blurriness. Found, however, and those users who were satisfied with the optics of the device and celebrate a decent macro and autofocus work.
As it turned out, most owners, whoalready has a smartphone Huawei Ascend P8, lacks those technical characteristics that the developer offers. There is a quick and high-quality work of the system: nothing buggy and does not hang, and the smartphone does a great job with games and applications.
The battery, according to buyers, is one of the mostsignificant disadvantages of the device. Sometimes the charge is not even enough for a day. Especially the battery quickly "melts" in the mode of operation of LTE-networks. Switching to a 2G network somewhat corrects the situation, but not much.
Sound owners of the device rated excellent and repeatedly praised the volume and clarity of the speaker. Also worthy quality of music in headphones was noted, thanks to which the device was replaced by the player.
