Summary

  • The Huawei Mate 8 features a robust build with Gorilla Glass 3 and an aluminum frame, while the Infinix Note 5 Stylus also has an aluminum back but is slightly heavier and thicker.

  • In terms of performance, the Mate 8 is powered by the Kirin 950 chipset, which may provide better efficiency compared to the MediaTek Helio P23 in the Note 5 Stylus.
  • The Mate 8's camera includes optical image stabilization and can record 1080p video, whereas the Note 5 Stylus can capture 4K video but lacks OIS.
