Huawei P8

Launched: April

Price: 2,888 yuan

The P8 is one of the most expensive models offered by the Chinese manufacturer. It is 6.4 millimeters thin and has a stylish all-aluminum body. Huawei claims the smartphone has the world's first four-color imaging sensor, which will dramatically increase the quality of photos. The front-facing camera is a huge 8MP for social media "selfies" and video chatting. Its rear camera is 13 MP in resolution, and good enough to take high-quality pictures. But the biggest selling point for the P8 is the Huawei-made processor, Kirin 930, which makes it fast. The only drawback is the price tag.
