[Cleoriff]

So I have been browsing around and found this 'little beauty'

Huawei has been steadily shedding its reputation as a budget smartphone maker in recent years and to that end the Chinese company made significant progress with the superb Mate S smartphone in 2015.

Looks Premium enough....?

The Mate 8 is all glass and metal, and the minute you pick it up you know it's a premium device. The chamfered edges look and feel great and the gold and brown models which sit alongside the silver and grey versions are subtle enough to be attractive.

If they did a 5" version for £300 it would fly, I'm sure.....
