Honor 8 still the best.

I got a Mate 9 pro, 6 gigs of RAM, Kirin 960, all the works. My Honor 8 runs better. It plays games smoother, opens apps faster, and the camera is just as good if not better. I'm back on my Honor 8, there is nothing else like the Honor 8.

I got honor 8 because of 5.2inch size. Mate 9 and honor 9 are 6inch.

The Kirin 960 will show its advantages more the longer you use it because of its advanced machine learning

That's in Emui 5.1 not the chip. The Honor 8 now had that too.

That's part of Emui 5, not the CPU, Honor 8 can do that now too.

Honestly, there are some nice-looking/efficient phones out there - especially the ones that are coming out right now - but I don't see anything I'd like more than my Honor 8.

I think the honor V9 simply because it will be daydream certified and not as slippery.

I definitely hear you about the slippery-ness! I'm afraid to take my phone out of my case for that very reason!

Same here, never out of the case. Even for a new case but that is slippery too, so don't feel safe using it haha

I know what you mean! I tried holding it without the case today and was more than a little nervous lool!
