 And this is not the screen that should monopolize the surplus of power since the definition is limited to HD 1080p. He wins by contrast 0.2-inch to reach a diagonal of 5.2 inches and thus cover 78.3% of the front panel. Display technology also changes. IPS, P8 passes IPS Neo, less energy. This is obviously also the reason that led Huawei to improve the performance of the Cortex-A53 rather than adopting Cortex-A57 / 72.


 This is obviously self who benefits since, despite a modest 2600 mAh battery, the manufacturer announced a day of heavy use and use nearly one and a half days in normal use on a single charge.
