    Honor might be a Huawei sub-brand, but it's definitely taking the spotlight today. It's introducing the Honor Note 8, an upper-mid-range behemoth meant to take on the likes of Xiaomi's Mi Max. Its focal point is undoubtedly its 6.6-inch, 2,560 x 1,440 screen -- it's both larger and sharper than its Xiaomi rival, and clearly built for people whose smartphone might be their only computing device. You won't get an exotic camera setup like on the Huawei P9 (there's 'just' one rear 13-megapixel camera with stabilization). However, you will get the P9's Kirin 955 octa-core processor as well as a hefty 4GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel front camera, a fingerprint reader, a sizeable 4,500mAh battery and 32GB, 64GB or 128GB of expandable storage.
