Great specs! But I think the latest flagships (S8-S8+; U11,XZ pro and now the Essential) are way ahead in terms of hardware and features. There's no doubt it's a great phone and the 6gb of ram will guarantee the performance will keep up with the competition, but lacks some features to attract the most demanding audience

It is just compatible with Android 7? Meaning not actually running android 7?

It's an Honor phone, not an Android phone. :)

I was just wondering because the more accurate way would be to say it has Android 7 with emui 5.1. saying something is compatible implies that it isn't authentic.

Well, that's what happens when new phone comes out. New features and better hardware.

But those aren't new features though... They have been around for years. Some manufacturers decide to incorporate them, some don't.

Exactly why they offer less than the other competition. Those features are key to a lot of customers when buying phones.

But price is also a factor... The s8 costs nearly double of the honor 8 pro,yet the honor 8 pro has double the internal memory and 50% more RAM. If you think water resistance and wireless charging are worth paying nearly double the cost of the honor 8 pro then by all means... Do it. The Honor lineup is not marketed for those who want all the bells and whistles.

You're also talking about Samsung. An overpriced brand. And just cause theyre selling their phone for that amount doesn't mean that's how much those features should cost. We shouldn't exclude those features regardless. They are handy.

That's fine but the competition in the same price range like the OnePlus 5 and zte Axon 7s doesn't have them either... Adding these features cost money and the manufacturers choose what people in their specific price range are mainly looking for. Sure there are some like you who want more features, and if you feel that they should be included, then contact the manufacturers and let them know. With enough feedback then they may add it.

Funny how their Honor line are supposed to be more affordable but they use the same beast SoC as their main flagship phones.
