review huawei gr5

We’ve raved about Huawei’s ‘Leica' phones’ (P9Mate 9P10 and P10 Plus) photography prowess extensively and we even use them for in-house product photography. But despite offering great value they’re also expensive. So we were very interested when Huawei sent us a budget model which costs almost one-third as much as a P10 Plus. This puts it up against the likes of budget marvels like the Moto G5 Plus and Oppo A57. That’s some fierce competition but then the GR5 has some great credentials. So which should you buy?
