While we haven't heard much from Huawei was released Mate 9 last year, a new report has revealed that the all-new P8 lite (2017) is coming to the market in 2017. Oddly enough, the company has decided to give it the same name as its predecessor that was released two years ago, with the only difference being "2017".
It's worth noting that the new P8 lite (2017) is far better than the P9 lite, the slightly downgraded version of the company's previous flagship.
Let's take a look at the specifications of the new smartphone.
It will initially run on Android 7.0 Nougat software and will be powered by an octa-core Kirin 655 processor paired with a Mali-T830 MP2 GPU. Inside, we find 3GB of RAM along with 16GB of storage that can be further expanded via microSD card (up to 128GB). It also features a 5.2-inch display with (1080p) full HD resolution.
Although it doesn't have a dual-camera setup, the 12-megapixel rear camera promises to take stunning photos. This is thanks to an LED flash, f/2.0 aperture, and PDAF (phase detection autofocus). There's also a secondary camera on the front for taking selfies and making video calls.
According to Huawei, the new P8 lite (2017) will be powered by a removable 3,000 mAh battery, but its use has not yet been approved.
Authoritative sources claim that the new smartphone will premiere on the European market by the end of January and you can purchase it at the price of 239 euros. Therefore, those interested, be patient, there are only a few days left to wait.
