Huawei’s newest flagship smartphone, the successor of Ascend P7, Huawei P8, is set to enter the shores of Sri Lanka within a couple of weeks, according to its local office.

The entry of Huawei P8 will target the high-end user and is speculated to enter at a price range of Rs.65,000-75,000, which is comparatively a superior price within the category in Sri Lanka.

In April this year, at the legendary Old Billingsgate, London’s renowned arts and fashion venue, Huawei Consumer Business Group unveiled the Huawei P8 smartphone, a perfect blend of technology, sleek styling, usability and revolutionary low light camera features. The Huawei P8 is the culmination of the P series’ rich heritage of style and functionality and is once again redefining the smartphone market with easy-to-use features that amaze and inspire consumers.


Huawei Device Sri Lanka Country Head Henry Liu said, “As a growing smartphone brand, we cater to a variety of consumer needs. The new flagship looks sleek, powerful and comes with many unique features. We are delighted to introduce these to Huawei’s loyal ambassadors in Sri Lanka. With craftsmanship that pushes the bounds of possibility and new revolutionary light painting modes, the Huawei P8 provides consumers with an inspiration for creativity.”

The Huawei P8 takes beauty to the next level, striking a flawless balance of artistry and creativity. Based on a deep understanding of human-machine design, the Huawei P8 delivers a new level of usability for applications impacting everyday life – at work and at play. Introduced in 2012, the Huawei P series has redefined style. The P1 marked the debut of Huawei’s journey, taking the stage with a new ethos based on beauty. The P2 built on the momentum of the P1, breaking new boundaries of processing speed; the P6 brought out a new and elegant sleekness and the slimmest phone that time, and the ultimate craftsmanship of the P7 stunned the market.
