Huawei P10 Lite review: Travel light

1 June 2017
Huawei’s Lites are not unlike Samsung’s Minis. They have little in common with the flagship, save for the name prefix that is, and more with riding the hype bandwagon. Oh well, flagships are always expected to pull more than just their own weight. That said, the Huawei P10 Lite does travel light and we don’t just mean it carries one camera less. But it sure arrives in style.

I have to choose between the Huawei P10 Lite and the Google Nexus 6P 64 GB. I just want a larger than normal phone that has a quick CPU and takes good photos. I also want my contacts and diary with me at all times. Not concerned about any music. Help me please.

                  I personally wouldn't touch Huawei. Having dealt with them for the past week, they have stated that the p9 lite update they have released overseas they have no intention to release in New Zealand. They have stated that a security flaw with the finger print sensor they released a patch for in December overseas will not be released in NZ. They have a lot of growing up to do before they should be taken serious. Today stating that they aren't interested in releasing new versions of android to their phones because they are good enough without them. No, no they are not especially when you don;t release patches to fix the bugs.

                          LoL yet another phone I see having much better low light capability than poor XZP, at less than half price.

                                    Akinaro, 02 Jun 2017I never get my head around idea of selling such devices... ... moreIndeed, It's even funny that gsmarena didn't even mention the regular Honor 8. Which has a much more powerfull Cortex-A72 combo and has Nougat with Emui 5.0. Today this device is ridiculous cheap. And it has Gorilla glass at both front and back.

                                      Dang, just bought the wife a P10 lite 3 weeks ago after her A5(2015) decided to die just for the hell of it :-(
                                      Could have saved myself £100 :-/ with the P8 Lite (2017)
                                      However it was £80 cheaper than a replacement A5(2017)
                                      But 4gb ram should make it last a little longer if they are good for getting OTA updates.
                                      To be fair she loves the phone as as we all know a happy wife - happy life :-D
                                      Might have been worth the extra £100 after all
                                      It does look a lot more expensive than the money we paid.
                                      Well done to CPW for a good deal as its went up in price since then.

                                        I never get my head around idea of selling such devices... Because for the same price you can get new last gen flagship, like P9. You get better device with better hardware and price difference that I saw last time in shop was maybe 30-50Euro. If you get it online you can find it even cheaper.
