The best phone ever the best performance!
I first had a look and a bit of a play with this phone. One of our retailers had this out on display and after 10 minutes with it I walked away thinking this, to me, is one of the very best phones in terms of design, build quality, feel in the hand and performance, the camera also looked good to me. I thought it felt easier to handle than the iPhone 7 plus, almost the same physical size but with a 6" screen over the iPhones 5.5". Fantastic job Huawei.
But the price on our local retailer is high so I bought online from Sunsky, I received it within 6 days and I also got a free phone case. Thanks Sunsky, I love it too much.
