        MehdiJavadi, 02 Apr 2022The last Official Android for G8 is 6.0.1, so did anybody upgrade with unofficial Android firm... moreI Recommend to Stay With the Official Release Even If Its Old. Until Now Android 6" Is An Powerful And Operative System For Your Phone, Smooth And Runs Applications Well. For Me I Don't Run After the Madness of Everything New And Security Updates On Android. Security Depends On Your Usage Through Things. If You Use Official And Verified Apps With Browsing Known And Safe Sites Everything Will Be Aright.

              I have been using Huawei G8 for 3 years now and the only problem was that its so fast to be low battery and i have 3gb/32gb so you will need a higher capacity memory card or a cloud storage because apps and pictures will make your phone full in no time and if your phone is showing signs of lag or enlarged battery mine was both and the screen was separating from the phone itself you need to replace it immediately because old phones like mine will stop working and unusable if you dont repair it mine was heating too and in 1 hour my battery percentage will be back to 0%. Lastly, old phones like this will not be sold in a high price

                This phone is absolutely a fast phone I play Minecraft PE and do some tasks the same time using split screen and still get about 130 fps, I know there are better gaming phone's than this that are good I am just saying this gives more value to price and is one of the best phone's I've had, I recommend it to everyone and about the play store I have it since it came out for other Huawei phones it might not but this one has play store and all Google apps irrespectively all good features only prob is that no more updates for OS after android 7. It kinds looks like a iphone 12 pro max which has flat edges and this phone looks kinda similar only camera and. Screen looks a bit of iphone, I changed the screen for about 20 dollars and got it replaced for a super-amoled screen which is a iphone 12 screen and it was the same size now only if u see the back of the phone can you say its not a iphone. Amazing battery life too recommend 😉😉🙂
