Huawei is geared up to launch Ascend P8 and P8 Max flagships, which stack up well against the latest counterparts of Samsung and Apple, especially in terms of technical specifications. The Australian comments that the Chinese Smartphone industry may hit the jackpot in Australia, due to the sliding AUD and the huge price hike in the premium brand flagships like Samsung, Apple and Microsoft. Now, the Australian market rolls out red carpet for the popular Chinese brands, including Huawei, Xiomi, Oppo and OnePlus, which offer premium products, at around half the cost of the four-digit branded phones.

In the mean time, Huawei P8 and P8 MAX are set to capture 30 markets and spread out to 100 more countries, shortly thereafter, with the price of €499. Premier list of countries include China, France, South Africa, Mexico, Germany, France, UAE, UK, Columbia and Turkey, where it expects huge potential demand. Almost all the tech review and leaks sites exhilarate about P8 max’s striking synchrony of artistry, creativity and technology, confirming The Australian edition guess to be true.

The audience for cheap smartphones are thrilled by the incredible battery life of P8 MAX, which promises more than 2 days for typical usage and around 15 hours for non-stop videos or web surfing. The innovative power management, with 2680mAh battery and Krin 930 Octa-Core 64-bit chipset, is 20% greater than other devices in the current Smartphone market.

When compared to its sibling P8, P8 MAX feels monstrous with 6.8 inches display unit, almost like the Microsoft Nexus 7. Engadget reports, “The screen, despite being 1080p, is sharp enough and well-suited for reading ebooks, browsing the web and streaming Netflix”. Although, the P8 MAX is a little bit thinner than the trendy Samsung Galaxy Note 4, with 228gm, you need two palms to use it.

Huawei has laid a new foundation on camera with the Light Painting feature, which offers perfect snaps, even in the least lighting. Even a rolling ferry wheel at night can be captured in the best way and the users can use the freehand technique to light-up their photos. Another low light application allows light check in preview mode, so that the users can experiment their creativity. The titanic screen combined with innovative camera offers powerful Selfie mode, which accommodates more number of people.

Huawei has re-defined network connectivity technology by inserting Signal+ technology, dual-antenna design and rapid switching mode, for strong and continuous internet connection, even if you travel around 300km/hr, while air travel connectivity is enhanced with optimized 4G roaming performance, which is almost three times quicker than the average phones in the market.
