The Huawei Honor 8 will come with some decent specs including a 5.2 inch display with a Full HD resolution. It will be powered by the Kirin 955 processor coupled with 4GB of RAM and either 32GB or 128GB of internal storage space. For the camera, the phone will have a 12MP dual camera setup at the back with an 8MP front facing one. Providing power will be a 3,200 mAh battery which supports quick charge.
