Huawei Mate 8 Review: I Love it

[@Godzilladad]

Glad to see u back doing videos!

[@BooredFemme]

Thanks. Trying to get to one or two videos a week

[@terminator7541]

+BooredFemme little cute eyes

[@smilerespectively4125]

+BooredFemme Hey Femme I would like to make a donation to your KZbin channel. So, tell me how?

[@123静水丨流深]

This is simply the best android phone out there. Before I got this phone, I always thought Samsung is the best android phone, but trust me HUAWEI Mate 8 is incredibly well designed and built. HUAWEI also spends tons of money on developing and engineering there devices annually. HUAWEI has not officially landed on the U.S market for smartphones, but once HUAWEI does, you will see how HUAWEI will outshine Samsung. Keep an eye on HUAWEI, folks.

[@chunlee8827]

im still using iphone 4s and its great, no problems besides battery which i can replace

[@_chjno]

Cisneros 123 which model do i need to ensure i get google play on it?

[@75lhou]

This review was pretty good and straight to the point. One question.. Mate 8 has double screen function?

[@rheasylvia4530]

Hi booredfemme, nice to meet you.... Thanks alot for your review... I justvhave a question about the speaker on the mate 8.. Is the soynd output supposed to come from both the speakers at the bottom or just the one on the right? Please do let me know..... Thanks again.... 😊😊😊

[@GX2re]

One side is for sound only and the other speaker only

[@artoscsaba]

thanks for the vid. isnt it to big in the hands? can it be handled well and enjoy usage? thanks

[@jtcber]

Is it dual speakers on the bottom?

[@Dontknownowido]

The phone looks amazing. Was wondering if this is the international version...and where you ordered yours from

[@FerozeMohamed]

Whats the white dot on the screen throughout the video?

[@pawninwordsandsoon]

[@Beta117]

[@oblivian20]

Is this the international version? Does this phone get 4g LTE on USA carrier networks? Was thinking about getting it. Thanks!

[@jaycleaves]

Do you still have your mate 8. I have T T-Mobile and wanted to know if it works on my network? Would you even sale yours? SERIOUSLY

[@nvdrh]

[@toma324331]

[@botakleong788]

nice review... what your opinion about the EMUI ? can it be customized by other launcher and icon pack?

[@JohnnyZenith]

This is what I want to know.

[@annamn3361]

my homescreen on my mate 8 doesn't rotate :(. Do you know why? Please help. I have it on aut.. screenrotation.

[@dorothyaugustus2462]

Hello! Where is the best place to order?

[@danijelhrastic691]

the phone looks awesone, the space gray colour is pretty nice. what is the quality of the display like? i mean, since it haves "only" about 370 ppi, compared to 400-500 ppi at other flag shipps...

[@AngelDeCruz]

will it work on metro pcs or cricket network?

[@abamlong2934]

your review make me in love huawei mate 8

[@mohammedsajjad8248]

I'm planning to pick this phone, but it is not available in India. Any sites that you prefer where I can buy this from?

[@PAIN0630]

Nexus 6P owner. Great video review. I'm very interested in this phone. Love the screen size and battery. I just hope it comes to the US.

[@azanhk1]

I just got my mate7 and its simply amazing...beautiful screen. The fingerptint scanner is fast and smartly located. mate 8 is my next undoubtedly. :-)

[@aldesalOG]

+Lokopo Same here :) relatively new Mate 7 user and happy with it and the Mate 8 looks !

[@frankieh9233]

is this selling in the US ???

[@NiksNook]

Could you post a video of it with some music playing, just to get an idea of the speakers?

[@nielsjunker1487]

Hi great review should I sell my Samsung galaxy s6 edge plus? and buy Huawei mate 8 instead?

[@khd8667]

no way

[@khd8667]

mate 8 = new Samsung a9

[@nicolagabriele6546]

+KHD wtf are you sayng,mate 8 is the best device on the market at the moment

[@khd8667]

+Nicola Gabriele the best ahahahah joke of the day lol

[@SegevSurfcastingSh]

+Nicola Gabriele my old nexus 4 is beter than this shit.

[@TechMadeSimple]

I hope you do one with the mate 9

[@nalditwisterron]

Wow. A surprisingly good review. One of the most fanboy-free and honest consumer review. Think I'm gonna subscribe...

[@jstnm]

I know it isn't available in the U.S. yet, but are you using it in the U.S.? I'm just curious if it works on the 4G here.

[@majidbajar]

what version it is NXT L29 or L10 please answer

[@bjnjhbo29]

Where did you purchase the phone from?

[@davoidd]

I got a Huawei mate 8 a few weeks ago. I do like the screen size and slim bezel. I can use it one handed but a phone not as wide like the 6p might be easier to work in one hand. I do like the expandable memory and dual sim support as I've been using it with two sims. The only down side would have to be lack of customization and custom roms as it's not as popular as the nexus. It has been the first phone I haven't worried about rooting as it has app permissions built in android 6, battery percentage in the icon, and the ability to display bandwidth usage which I love and was about all u used a custom rom for. Google play is a bit limited and didn't come with all the services.

[@davidcung9032]

do you get LTE connection with it in america

[@apt1972beefy]

What does Sim 2 drop down to?

[@imprintz]

If you move the camera button wouldn't your hand cover the lens most times?

[@mdtaylor2274]

I really love your videos. Keep up the good work. I currently use the iPhone 6 and only opted for it because of the stability and ease of use. However, I keep going into the Huawei store here in Lisbon Portugal and drooling over this phone. Only deal breaker for me is the price. I'd imagine it'd be a definite iPhone killer if they'd lower the price by around 50-75 euros.

[@MrFloryn88]

Damm it soooo hard to chose betwen Mate 8 or Nexus 6P ... Incredible hard . Any suggestions ?

[@00000000zaful]

+Florin Liviu 6P bro. better flagship & stock android!

[@MrFloryn88]

Fritzgi Dessources thanks for the reply

[@Jhann92]

+Florin Liviu I think i'll go with the Mate 8 its battery is just amazing!

[@ob2266]

+Florin Liviu go for white mate8

[@MrFloryn88]

Jhannier Marulanda yes I was also thinking about the superb battery but I don't know how Huawei is with updates also it has an IPS screen I like Super Amoled

[@iyerviking]

2:07 Decemble? Or Disassemble? :) Good review, by the way.

[@adeehassan7812]

[@lazopaola]

[@rara_s7578]

You helped me grow, you set me free, you always saw the best in me.

[@RedMushroom23]

is it worth still buying for in 2018?

[@atifghafoor6258]

could you make a mi5 review or compare this to the mi5

[@mikldude9376]

BooredFemme , still loving your mate 8 ?

[@ismailsametcil6482]

what is the colour of this phone ?

[@JasnoGT]

I thought there was a messed up pixel in the middle left of the screen. Maybe its just some lint.

[@xiliu7785]

what colour this phone?

[@Kevin-ck6bu]

does this phone work with T-Mobile 4GLTE bands?

[@colingroves335]

Yes

[@Zangetzu33]

Am i right or the Grey (black) is only available as 32Gb-3G Ram ? Meaning if you want the 4Gb Ram you can only get champagne gold or mocha gold ?

[@竹子-m6e]

+ Zangetzu33 yes

[@mackfar27]

This phone is a iPhone killer.

[@Jassari96q8]

the iPhone is already dead, specs wise of course, cause there are still tons of people out there that are ignorant about technology and still use the iPhone

[@mackfar27]

+Jassari96 That is for sure. I am currently using the BLU Pure XL phone. I am absolutely loving it. This phone surprised the hell out of me. Build quality is great, features are great, and its affordable.

[@pawninwordsandsoon]

+Jassari96 iPhone is dead specs wise? Is that why android and windows phones don't even come close to iPhone's benchmark results? You know, specs are not only GHz on a processor and amount of RAM, if you look at the specs in depth you'd see this shit is powerful even for a lap top or even PC standards. The 6s is still the best performer you could get

[@mackfar27]

pawninwordsandsoon iPhone is overrated. I respect Apple. But seeing how more phones that are coming out to be just as powerful, if not better, and not to mention being cost competitive, I say pretty soon people will begin to walk away from iPhone.

[@gutsy-beard14]

lol my whilyfox is iPhone killer

[@SKPP]

Does it support AT&T 4G LTE?

[@jyneiqua2931]

is it in the US

[@qazifaisal5]

I'm actually impressed by This device

[@newera1400]

idk if I should wait for my iphone 7 or just get this one or the xperia

[@danimoosakhan]

did u have any connectivity issue since it's not a carrier phone?

[@BooredFemme]

not at all. I had an AT&T sim, and it installed just fine

[@mikldude9376]

+BooredFemme Hi there , how are you enjoying the mate 8 , is the experience still good .... no problems ?

[@wranefis]

can i please know where did you buy it?

[@Amir_Iraqi]

its here in Baghdad 530$ 64gb gold color

[@djrodriguez4740]

Very nice review, would love to see more about this device.

[@AnesjyAJ]

I need a 6 inch better device than this...Any recommendations?

[@chinammadath]

very good phone but in the Hisuit there is no music downloading option to import songs from computer to this Mate 8

[@omarhassan5385]

there is a small white spot in the middle of the screen how did it happen ?

[@lusiagita]

It's a reflection of the cameras

[@matthewwhitted9179]

Lusia Gita do this phone works with Android Pay ?

[@DashDrones]

Why don't they do the 64GB 4GB RAM version in Space Grey? It looks so nice

[@mohammedmansoor285]

Been using the Mate 7 Gold for the past year. Was thinking quite a bit on the Mate 8. Seems quite similar but I guess the camera and other extra features got me sold. Next stop, phone shop! Thanks for the review @booredfemme

[@ryancarpenter1678]

where can I purchase so it's not in Chinese language.

[@adam.gizlin]

Don't you think that had the shutter side changed you would actually block the camera with your hand?

[@sabeehsaqib]

Lol

[@sepehrazizi1491]

damn , you are right dude!

[@philliphenderson5474]

When you got this phone, how did you set it up? Was it in Chinese?

[@stephanieyong-pratt5312]

Nope it automatically gave the usual language options at setup

[@philliphenderson5474]

Ok. Thank you.

[@josemanuelromerovillalba6744]

s7 edge , iphone 6s or huawei mate 8? Which one i must choose? I want durability , fluency and uploads . Thanks !!

[@Alb3rtOrO]

Mate 8 100%

[@kinglord8646]

Get p9 plus or wait for mate 9

[@jheyzeldonato9446]

is huawai work in the phillipine????

[@abdallahgibril4836]

[@白吃白喝苦也甜]

[@michaelupchurch5955]

[@jacure123]

[@shovasharmin2275]

Plz help me..how to I started ok emy ...I will try but I can't

[@davidcain7569]

That color is gorgeous!! 😍 I'd like to have one. 😭

[@waelelattar979]

I have a rose gold one and that is the one the I am typing on.

[@dlysele]

Glad to see Huawei joined the game. I have high expectation from them.

[@pascalerb]

Great channel dude!

[@alasemral]

mate 8 /z5 premium ??

[@RickyH2O]

is that a LTE device ? Wonder if it will picks up 4G LTE on ATT USA?

[@BooredFemme]

yes it does. I was using an ATT sim

[@RickyH2O]

Thanks

[@Ricky-ms4fu]

BooredFemme how's everything going will it work with metro pcs or T mobile service

[@kennethbepps]

Yes..I get 4G with T-Mobile

[@kennethbepps]

It gets T-Mobile 4G

[@owlic227]

one thing I wanna add. lol. thats not your recently used apps that it "refreshes" for you. its just that Huwawei's android skin has no app drawer

[@owlic227]

Huawei*

[@sabeehsaqib]

Man, she meant that when she got the phone. All her apps that she had in her previous phone were there on Huawei Mate 8. that's probably because of Google's Marshmallow service. that happened when I installed marshmallow on my Huawei P8 Lite

[@vielsideken6139]

Does it has multi windows features like Samsung Galaxy note 5?

[@abdulln1439]

+Vielside ken yes it does, but for limited number of apps, mostly Huawei apps

[@SakuroAlex]

I'm getting this instead of Iphone 7 plus

[@4jup4ter4]

Or wait until the Mate 9 is announce in November sometime. :)

[@kinglord8646]

Wait until mate 9. Mate 8 is close to iPhone performance but iPhone wins. Mate 8 is like 9 months old. Mate 9 will have the 960 which will make it the most powerful phone in the world. Nothing beats it's chipset and mate 9 will be first phone with it and will most likely have dual 16 mega pixel camera a big improvement from the terrible camera it has. Please wait

[@SakuroAlex]

I actually got Samsung Galaxy S7 edge...

[@kinglord8646]

Ohh dang, sorry to hear that.

[@SakuroAlex]

why so?

[@Kayfabe-226]

Will this phone run on Tmobile 4g in the U.S.?

[@BooredFemme]

Joseph Carrino yes it will

[@justme3894]

this phone is absolutely amazing....I personally used a huawei for a year, I think it was the P7, and it was really nice. Only part I don't like is the lack of app drawer, simply can't get over it. My first option on my new device is Samsung, either Note 5, S7 Edge, or maybe note 6(probably won't have the money), a second option now would be this huawei, LG V10, and maybe htc 10(but didn't like it). LG5 what a disappointment, feels and looks cheap. Probably will never use an iphone again(since iphone 3GS), I think iphones are overpriced and offer very little to be more expensive than all other devices. very nice review, thumbs up

[@faheemthedream2007]

what's the deal with the messed up pixel on the phone?! never getting this phone

[@faheemthedream2007]

+Christopher Adams look at 2:28 there's a white pixel missing on the phone. I have Nexus 6p. no missing pixels ever. best fluid phone I have ever owned.

[@riteshnayak80]

Its her dandruff not dead pixel u moron

[@samuelgroome3387]

When she turns the screen off the 'pixel' is still there. It's dandruff or fluff or whatever. :|

[@LMAO-ef3ip]

I looked into this phone and it seems to me to be on par with the note 3 (released in 2013) I still have mine and I love it. Unless the mate 9 0r 10 makes significant improvements then I doubt I will take much interest in this device. Good for people who dont want to pay that much though

[@befapam007]

Does huaweii matte 8 could be better even than the iPhone 6 and the Samsung Galaxy edge s7 ?

[@amanbaloch335]

Pamela Gomez 00923200280680 i can tell you everything about the mobile

[@xtianmechanix864]

enjoying this beast for 10months without heat issue, lag issue, 101% satisfied.

[@rustomshah7078]

I m still using mate 8 and it's still going good Nov 2020

[@dzjanczidi4749]

Great review, but there's a grain of dust (or maybe fiber idk) on the screen during the whole video, and that really irritated me.

[@belmont620]

I just got one from China that I bought on Ebay for $430 shipping included. I love it. I had the Mate 2 for nearly a year and liked it, but this phone is so much faster and so convenient to use. I put an SD card in it instead of the 2nd SIM but it's not being recognized (too slow message I believe?) I'm going to Staples to see if they can advise me. When I received the phone it was all in Chinese--even after going into the settings and choosing English. I tried downloading Chrome with no luck. I contacted the seller to ask for a refund. They were apologetic but not helpful. After figuring out how to circumvent the language barrier I finally got Chrome in English installed, then deleted all the Chinese apps that I could and all was fine!

[@bryanao18]

what is the price? i will get 9 edition

[@akltom]

Jose Palacios i just bought a mate9 online, 3388, about $500

[@michaelupchurch5955]

Great review as always

[@madukaasantha1180]

I brought Apple iPhone 6 .but now i think about samsung galaxy s6.is it worth

[@JohnnyZenith]

Can anybody tell me if I can at least get it to look like stock android?

[@magnedalaren]

Does anyone here know if there would be a problem with getting the chinese version for somebody like me who lives in sweden? I know where to buy one, it's actually cheaper than the swedish versions and all. I know all the LTE/3G/4G bands are supported but, can you get the same apps? and is it a problem to make the phone english from chinese? I greatly appreciate if somebody could help me! Thanks ^^

[@mengjunlu8695]

The Chinese version does have English language in it, you can switch to English phone easily, just head to the "设置" and the tap the "语言和键盘" and then select "English", then enjoy it😊

[@mengjunlu8695]

It will be a little difficult for you to download app from play store, for the chinese version doesn't install the google service and play store initially, you should head to xda developers to find the tutorial and install them by yourself, so think twice before buying the chinese version mate 8

[@JohnnyZenith]

Can someone tell me if I can put stock Android in this?

[@info328]

what about the warranty

[@randomlyboring8358]

mine came with 2years warranty

[@airupthurml2390]

Wow Huawei stepping up ther game huh 6inch display!! They rekon BIGGER is better but damn 6 inches of screen thts impressive.I just brought the Note 5 and the new Samsung S7 is coming out soon its crazy! Nice video hun @BooredFemme

[@adminadmin8811]

One heck of a phone!! I am an all out Samsung guy and I never thought I could trade Samsung for anything else in the market and surely not a Cheesiness brand!! Yet Oh boy this phone took me by surprise and as I was going through it searching for faults here in there I could find none especially the design and the tech specs in terms of RAM and processor speed. After buying I could honestly say this is not only an IPhone killer but a Samsung killer as well. They have done everything Samsung should've done in terms of screen size and processor speed and yes folks it is much faster than my other Note 5 which I also have and much more fluid and way better looking which to me is a massive surprise the only bad thing is the default built in launcher but that is no real problem because im using Nova Launcher anyways even on my Samsung Note 5!!

[@masonmunoz8720]

Can I get this phone from you

[@dynastyp5230]

just bought this device,oh my gosh very powerful machine
