Huawei has just released the newest handset in their mid-range G-series line-up, the Huawei G8. However, unlike previous generations, the Huawei G8 has gone to the more premium end of the spectrum, sporting a full-metal unibody design with curved-edge glass front panel. In a way, the Huawei G8 is creeping into the territory of the Honor series with its premium build and price point (Php17,990 in stores). The G series used to be positioned as a low to mid-range handset with mostly polycarbonate materials and decent specs. The full HD display is clean and crisp with a screen-to-body ratio of 71.7% that's almost similar to the Huawei P8 The over-all look and feel slightly of the G8 reminded us of the HTC One M9 sans the front speakers. The Huawei G8 is also the first of its series to sport a FingerPrint ID scanner. We were surprised that Huawei used a Snapdragon 615 1.5GHz octa-core processor instead of their homegrown Kirin chipset. Image quality is pretty good as Huawei used the same sensor of the Huawei P8 on the G8.
