Sleek High-End Smartphones

Huawei's 'Honor 8' Will Compete with the Top Smartphones

— July 18, 2016 — Tech
Huawei's 'Honor 8' is making a run at becoming one of the top competitors for Android-compatible high-end smartphones. The sleek, thin, and glassy device combines elegant style with the best processing power that Huawei has to offer, giving it the performance capabilities that many Android users demand.

In terms of design, the Honor 8 is easily comparable to other high-end smartphones like the OnePlus One. Its screen and backing are covered in '2.5 D' glass, or glass that tapers at the edges, giving it a curved look. The phone is also framed by a subtle metal wiring, adding a hint of toughness to the soft aesthetic.

In terms of hardware, the phone's most impressive feature is its dual camera. Each equipped with identical 12 megapixel sensors, the cameras allow consumers to change focus and aperture after taking a photo.

Huawei's newest foray into the world of high-end smartphones should raise the stakes for designers and engineers in the industry.

3. Android-compatible High-end Smartphones - The trend of Android smartphone manufacturers entering the high-end smartphone market will continue to present disruptive innovation opportunities for the industry, with a focus on performance, design, and cutting-edge features.
Industry Implications
1. Smartphone Manufacturing - As Huawei continues to challenge top competitors in the high-end smartphone market, there will be continued opportunities for smartphone manufacturers to innovate and push new boundaries.
2. Mobile Photography Technology - The trend towards equipping smartphones with dual cameras will continue to disrupt the mobile photography technology industry, creating opportunities for new and improved camera features, lenses, and accessories.
3. Consumer Electronics Retailing - The rise of Android-compatible high-end smartphones like the Huawei Honor 8 will disrupt the consumer electronics retail industry by creating opportunities for retailers to showcase innovative products and engage consumers with cutting-edge technology.
