The Huawei Mate 8 also boasts great photography. Its 16 Megapixel main camera usesSony’s IMX298 image sensor – same as theXiaomi Mi 5. It reduces motion for videos and prevents blurry photos with Optical Image Stabilization. Meanwhile, selfies are taken care of an 8 Megapixel front camera.
It comes with 64GB of built-in storage and a slot for microSD cards of up to 128GB capacity. This uses the second SIM card slot though.
Its 4000mAh battery isn’t removable but Huawei says it can last up to two (2) days on a single charge! It also supports fast charging at 2 Amperes resulting into 37% battery life after 30 minutes of charging.
