Huawei P8 review: thin, powerful and undercuts the competition

Chinese smartphone firm's latest flagship Android puts Huawei on the map with a solid all-metal phone that costs significantly less than competitors

You've probably never heard of Huawei. With a brand name that few recognise and which many who do can't pronounce, the Chinese company has struggled outside developing markets - but that may be about to change.

Its new flagship P8 Android smartphone - thinner than an iPhone 6 - could be about to put Huawei on the map.

Pros: very thin, solid build, decent camera, good battery life and performance

Cons: lack of premium finish to the body, software modifications are a little unpolished and change Android significantly
