the concept photos look nice at first, with that 'bezel-less' feel, but the actual phone with that quite thick bezel just spoils it...

2k screen means more power consumption

I had a hands-on opportunity with the Mate 8. Seems like a pretty pleasant phone, although this 6-inch display is large, and wide in particular, which perhaps is just fine if it's really a phablet that you want. - https://zitseng.com/archives/10159
