5.0 display
That Huawei as suffix for the cheaper top model-Veriante "lite" instead - like other brands - has selected "mini" or "compact", is encouraging honest. Because the unit is a total of anything but mini, but differs primarily by simpler hardware from the "normal" P8. Thus, the screen falls compared to the top model from only slightly smaller: Instead of 5.2 inches (P8) P8 offers lite exactly 5.0 inches. But that is still large enough to represent all sorts of content. Flashy is the difference in image resolution. While the flagship Full HD offers (1920 x 1080), which provides little smaller display of lite version only HD with 1080 x 720 pixels. Still makes the picture a good impression. Whoever compares often different resolutions, while acknowledging that the resolution is not quite at the highest level. In normal everyday but that is hardly noticeable or even disturbing. However, if one puts great emphasis on brilliant image display, the P8 lite is rather not the right. Because it is the fact that brightness and color values at an acute viewing angles are not as stable like the Honor 6 or even more so the Samsung Galaxy S6 Duos test .design

In Huawei P8 lite test the smartphone does a good technical impression, especially for its price. Compared to its "big brother" look and equipment are considerably reduced.
- Although the back looks like brushed aluminum, but is plastic and it sounds good too, if one hand typing with your fingernail.
- When setting the motto was unfortunately ebenalls "plastic instead of aluminum"
- On the front 3 normal glass is installed instead of Corning Gorilla Glass.
operating system
No room for criticism there is the operating system. With Android 5.0 smartphone is well equipped. A matter of taste, however, is that the manufacturer Huawei as still its own user interface EMUI puts it. It comes in the current version 3.1 and gives a very fresh, reduced impression - but also relies on cheerful colors. We liked it liked typing through the menus. Who does not like it can recharge a different look.While this is probably unfortunately quite cumbersome (via the app-defaults), but also is not one of the evaluation criteria in our Huawei P8 lite test.Dual-SIM Control
Who uses two SIM cards and microSD memory cards, must decide when P8 lite. Either he uses both numbers in the same phone - and then dispensed with a microSD slot. Or he puts the memory card for example apps, photos & Co into the smartphone - but the second SIM must continue to use it with a separate mobile phone. However, one must clearly say: An increasing number of mobile phones, even for only a single SIM card, the slot for external memory is now omitted, about even with the Super Phones from Samsung. Who already uses no microSD card, which does not compromise in terms of the "hybrid" Slots with the P8 lite in principle.Accessibility to SIM1 and SIM2
As usual nowadays, both numbers are parallel accessible until one of the two called himself or makes a call. Until this week the water needs, the other is not registered in its network. Similar to when you momentarily has no reception. If you but no one wants to miss incoming calls to the other number at this time, there is a manual solution: Prepare a call diversion to the parameters just in use SIM card and allows for this "Call waiting / Swap". However, can cause costs this redirection depending on the tariff.SIM card formats
For the Huawei P8 lite you need SIM cards in different formats. Namely, as a micro-SIM for the main number and a nano-SIM for the second slot (which can alternatively be used for a memory card).Manage phone numbers
The management of the SIMs and assigning specific numbers to specific functions is integrated into the normal "settings" menu of Android. For this, a sub-item is located in this main menu "dual SIM management". There are, among others, the following settings that you can change at any time again:- Specifying a default phone number that is automatically used to call or to SMS. (If you do not use this, always two green handset are displayed on the keypad, one with the number 1, the other with a 2)
- Define different ringtone for specific numbers.
- Set the card for mobile internet. The P8 lite uses all common in Germany grid frequencies (bands) for the cellular standards 2G, 3G and 4G. It also supports dual-SIM LTE , and with up to 150 Mbit / s.
- disable individual SIM cards.
