Huawei Ascend Mate 8

Design

Stunning Design

The Mate 8 takes the look and feel of the Mate series to a whole new level. Boasting a vivid 6" FHD display, an ultra slim design, a re-designed fingerprint sensor that's faster and more reliable, and a sleek aluminum unibody design, the Mate 8 is sure to impress.

Metallic Unibody Design

Unique 2.5D Diamond Cut Glass

User-Friendly Fingerprint Sensor

Feels as Good as It Looks

To give the Mate 8 its smooth finish, the display is covered with 2.5D diamond cut glass, sculpted with ultra-fast glass cutting technology for a seamless finish. This unique production process also means that the latest addition to the Mate series is slimmer than ever, with a larger screen-to-body ratio than any other smartphone in its category.   

Knows You Like No Other

The fingerprint sensor on the back of the Mate 8 has been re-designed for enhanced performance. The circular sensor matches the shape of your finger, and the depth of the concave area has been decreased to 0.45 mm to enable your finger to get closer to the chipset for improved recognition accuracy and speed. In addition, the metallic ring has been removed for a minimalist design.

Larger Screen-to-body Ratio

Mate 8 uses a 6-inch FHD screen with 95% color saturation. Even with a larger screen, the smart design of Mate 8 is more compact than previous models with a 85% screen-to-body ratio.

Slimmer Dimensions and Thinner Edges

Mate 8 has slimmer dimensions and 7.9mm edges - 0.4mm thinner than Mate 7. By using diamond cutting technology, it makes Mate 8 visually thinner than other products.

Sandblasting on the Rear Surface

Mate 8 employs meticulous yet soft sandblasting on the rear surface. The combination of sandblasting, trimming, and the fine metallic drawing process contribute to a rich yet smooth texture.

Life’s True Colors

Sometimes the most important choices are the hardest ones to make. That's why the Mate 8 is available in four stunning colors: champagne gold, moonlight silver, sky grey, and mocha brown.
