Chinese telecommunications equipment manufacturer Huawei has added another device to its 'Honor' sub-brand of smartphones.It's called Honor V8, and also this is the smartphone in the company's new V series of phones.

Launched in China, the Huawei Honor V8 is powered by a 2.5 GHz Octa-core Kirin950 CPU which is really powerful especially when paired with 4GB of RAM. The smartphone has a 5.7-inch display that comes in two variants - Full HD at 1080x1920 pixels resolution and Quad HD with 1440x2560 pixels resolution, and 32GB/64GB of in-built storage which is expandable via microSD card.

This is something that you don't see in other phones. Don't count me on that yet. The Phone also comes with Huawei's own skin Emotion UI v4.1.
