In need of a new phone. p8 lite? or p7? - Huawei Ascend P7

I need a new phone, and it needs to be reasonably priced. Therefore I am considering the P7, P8 Lite or maybe even the Samsung A3.
Do you guys have experience with the P8 Lite? Is it better than the P7?

[Q] Any latest news for Huawei Ascend P8?

Once a time i have seen the news about the different specifications about the Huawei Ascend P8 and Xiaomi Mi4/Mi5 as well as the Doogee LEO DG280 in http://www.pompmall.com/blog/huawei-ascend-p8-xiaomi-mi4s-mi5-doogee-dg280-specs/, so any guys know the detailed information about the Huawei Ascend P8, and it is the upgrade version of the Huawei Ascend P7?

We should all migrate to the Honor 8 lite Forum

honor 8 lite = huawei GR3 2017 = huawei P8lite 2017
We have our own Forum, why are we still using the old p8lite forum ?
And it's full of ROMs too
Uhm..maybe because we have PRALX1 and Honor 8 Lite is PRA LA1?
Hmmm my phone is honor 8 lite and im PRA-LX1C432

ROMs made for LX1 work on LA1 and the reverse is true

We might get updater.script errors on TWRP and cust incompatibilities... But I might as well be wrong, sure @haky 86 and other experts have the correct answer for this. If they are 100% equivalent, we should indeed migrate this forum
only if no roms there in that section!
or better I can ask a mod to move all pra-lx1 right there to get more visibility, at last I've nothing to do or work on the old p8 lite anymore!
P.S: my next new rom will be published into the Honor 8 Lite, I'm not going to publish roms here anymore since I close with old p8 lite developments definitively.
gr3 2017

Difference between PRA-XXX models after i flashed different firmware [DEBRANDING] [Q]

I've wondering what would really happened if i am gonna flash a different firmware based on flashing different oeminfo
Original Firmware: PRA-LX2C636B160
Flashed after debrand: PRA-LX1XXXXB180 (EU HW, Dual Sim version)
I was scared when EMUI asks for update again then they've asked me to update system images too, right after a OTA update. It was B190 with March 2018 Security Update.
What should i do? Should i ignore this until i were able to go back to PRA-LX2?
And also what is difference between P8 Lite 2017 to GR3 2017?
Thanks
The names are different just because Huawei does not ship the same model-name worldwide.
Different models are sold in different parts of the world even though it is the same phone, almost (99%)! Things that can differ is the color and the dual-sim/single-sim.
Your phone is pra-lx2 but the software thinks its pra-lx1, so you will always get the updates for lx1 version.
You should not be afraid of the updates since as I said before, it is basically the same version of the phone. Updating wont hurt the phone.
P8 Lite 2017 is GR3 2017, and many other names.

[HELP] Getting EMUI8.0 onto Huawei P8 Lite 2017

So I've recently purchased a P8 Lite 2017 to replace my old P8 Lite from 2015 and I've decided I want to get the latest version of Android for it having seen things about it online. I vaguely remember doing something like this with the original P8 Lite by updating it with Android 6.0 though my memory isn't reliable. I am aware of the risks involved and what can happen to my phone but I enjoy doing things like this and learning about it.
If at all possible, could someone explain to me the steps required to install Oreo onto my P8 Lite 2017? Or even direct me to posts that would explain how to do it? I've tried searching but, to be honest, I'm completely useless and trying to find information I need.

This section is for P9, not P9 Lite.
If you want a knowledgeable answer from somebody who owns P9 Lite, you must ask there
P9 and P9 Lite are different phones (diff hardware), hence diff Huawei firmwares apply.
Here are users for P9 (not P9 Lite, not P9 Plus), don't expect (useful) answers here for your P9 Lite
