The Unboxing:

The device sports a HiSilicon Kirin 655 octa-core processor, 3GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, a full HD 5.2-inch IPS display, 12-megapixel rear and 8-megapixel front camera, along with a fingerprint scanner and Android Nougat with EMUI 5.0. The phone has pleasing aesthetics and what looks to be 2.5D glass layered on top, along with front and back glass panels.

It might not have the same dual camera setup as the GR5 2017, but the GR3 2017 has a very attractive price , making it pretty affordable as far as Huawei phones go.

Can’t get any better than this !

Huawei is starting off 2017 with a very solid mid-range device. The GR3 2017. 

A relatively powerful processor, large battery, excellent endurance and solid camera make this a solid winner for the Chinese company. If you’ve managed to hold off buying a phone during the holidays or are due for an upgrade, you definitely have to check out the GR3 2017. It’s definitely great value for the money.
