The name of the old and the new. Review Of The Huawei P8 Lite 2017

Everything new is well forgotten old. In the case of Huawei yet not quite, and not all forgotten. The company was inspired by the success of his first P8 Lite announced in 2015.

Was inspired and decided to try the light version of the flagship. Though not invented a new name for her. See, forgot or did not want. Anyway, please welcome the bestseller of the reincarnation of 2017 – Huawei P8 Lite 2017.

Design and ergonomics

New looks nice, and despite its low price in 6,5 thousand hryvnias. It simultaneously reminds Huawei Honor 6 and Honor 8.

Front and rear panel of the Huawei P8 Lite 2017 protected by glass with rounded edges. The side frame is plastic, but stylized metal.

Huawei P8 Lite 2017 has a few rounded corners. Camera phones not the sticks. And compact it is to 147.2 x 72,9 x 7.6 mm and weighs 147 grams. Camera thanks perfectly in the hand. And it is very easy to operate with one hand, even the girl.

If we talk about the ergonomics of the device, it is standard. On the right side of the body are physical keys, on the left – hybrid SIM tray. The bottom holds the microUSB connector, speaker and main microphone, while the top – 3.5 mm audio Jack.

The front panel of the smartphone is a 5.2-inch screen. On-screen keys, their order, and number can be customized.

Above the screen is frontalka and the indicator missed events.

On the rear panel of the smartphone, except for the eye camera with flash, has a fingerprint scanner and the manufacturer’s logo.

Looks like new in black color.

Screen

IPS smartphone screen covered with protective glass with rounded edges (2.5 D effect), a relatively small – 5.2-inch. We can say that this is the Golden middle: whereas 5.0 inch – a little, and the 5.7 – lot.

Resolution reaches 1920 x 1080 pixels (423 ppi), which is also the average for such diagonal. 4K is for the flagships. However, if the manufacturer has presented such an elegant solution Huawei P8 Lite 2017, would suffer autonomy. Because Full HD is a perfectly reasonable choice. This is the best option.

Viewing angles are wide, color reproduction is correct. It’s not AMOLED technology with acid colors. If desired, you can adjust the color temperature in the settings. However, in the extreme points the image goes blue. But it is not critical.

The screen is bright. There is a stock of brightness.

A nice bonus – a special mode of protection of sight. It needs to appear in other devices of the manufacturer after upgrading to Android 7.0.

One disadvantage of the screen – there is no oleophobic coating. Will survive?

Fingerprint scanner the Huawei P8 Lite 2017

The fingerprint scanner in the smartphone is on the back. The finger lies on him intuitively. That’s a plus.

Fingerprint scanner got the Huawei P8 Lite 2017 inherited from the flagship. So do not hesitate in his quick and accurate work. Not a problem for him and wet his fingers.

Pleased branded chip that allows you to control the device, SWIPA on the scanner. For example, it is convenient to view the gallery or pictures without touching the screen, open the notification curtain.

Sound

In smartphone integrated DAC brand, providing excellent sound quality. Therefore, the Huawei P8 Lite 2017 will appeal to any music lovers.

In addition, there is a software driver for improved sound – for awesome sound picky users. To play: piece adds the sound volume, without it, it is a little rather flat.

Built-in player model plays the Flac files. External and conversational dynamics is quite normal.

Call you are unlikely to miss, but for music listening I advise you to use headphones, for example Xiaomi Hybrid.

Hardware platform and performance

The performance of the Huawei P8 Lite 2017 provided by OCTA core Kirin processor 655, which, according to the manufacturer, works stronger and faster than its predecessors. For example, in comparison with Kirin 620 it is faster by 60%.

In addition, the smartphone brings on Board co-processor Sensor Hub i5. He is responsible for background tasks: from the work of the player from the lock device to the light sensor. The presence Sensor Hub+i5 should extend the battery life of the device.

The volume of operative memory of the smartphone is 3 GB (DDR3), internal – 16 GB which can be expanded through a microSD card. It’s predictable as the fact that the slot for her hybrid. You will have to sacrifice dvuhtonnoy. Well, whether or not to sacrifice. It all depends on your priorities.

As for the speed camera, more than good. Comfortable surfing the Internet and running multiple apps, all without any lag or stuttering. So “iron” the smartphone is justified. Moreover, this affordable device not even expect so nimble behavior.

However, the graphics core in the device is weak. Therefore, we will not recommend gamers. For mobile toys best to look for some kind of flagship.

And if you still want to play games on the Huawei P8 Lite 2017, just choose medium or low settings for the normal number of frames per second.

The Android operating system 7.0 and the interface EMUI 5.0

Smartphone with Android 7.0 got a new proprietary shell EMUI 5.0. And this, by the way, the first device on the “seven” on the Ukrainian market, except for the flagships.

The most notable innovation left in the smartphone from the “bare” Android is the ability to reply to messages from the notification bar. Note and updated as notifications for software support 7.0 Nougat.

But Huawei is more important than what is possible with their interface. Among the main changes in EMUI 5.0:

• – fresh design;
• – standard menu multitasking Android;
• – the possibility of having separate apps menu (not to place all programs on the desktop).

Shell adapts to the user. No, it’s not artificial intelligence, just machine learning. The device will instantly launch frequently used applications.

As for the design, most embedded applications repainted in a blue and white scheme. Nice colors, do not irritate, and even original.

Note also the appearance of the keys of fast action oval shape, is located at the bottom of the on-screen system keys. And it is also a convenient innovation. The manufacturer is sure that many actions are now performed in a couple of clicks, and the interface EMUI 5.0 is one of the most beautiful and comfortable. Can agree with him.

Camera smartphone

The main camera has 12 MP, autofocus, LED flash and aperture of f/2,2. The front camera of the smartphone is of 8 MP. Aperture is also f/2.0 and pixel size of 1.4 µm.

On the main screen the user can change the camera to switch from photo to video, adjust the flash, choose filter, and enter the gallery.

Brand FOR Huawei to work with the camera clear and simple. There is a manual shooting mode for those who don’t like automation.

Moreover, the software of the camera it is possible to find mode improvements cebasek. In this apparatus stores personal settings, making in auto mode, the user’s face is always beautiful. Post a few selfies in your favorite social network is not difficult.

With an eye on the price of the smartphone shoots quite well.

And even in the dark he is capable of good results.

Night mode on the rear camera

Smartphone video writes in Full HD quality at 30 frames per second. About 4K, favorite flagships, of speech, of course not, but Full HD is quite decent.

Battery and work offline smartphone

The battery has 3000 mAh (non-removable). This is sufficient for two days operation at a typical load.

On average, the device lasts 5-7 hours of active screen. Just a pity that he was not lucky with support for fast charging. But as to charge the smartphone it is necessary not so often (like Android background), it is possible not to get upset.
