The type of the screen is IPS LCD which is protected with Gorilla Glass which increases the durability of mobile. With the large display and the prefect resolution as a result users will get the prefect sharp and bright screen and the screen are readable in all types of light condition.
Software and User Interface
Why Huawei select the older version of operating system. The Ascend P8 runs Android 4.4 Kitkat operating system instead of Lollipop 5.0. There is no fault found in KitKat version of operating system but the new version is come with better features and improved interface. KitKat is the easiest interface and everyone can use this without any obstacle because of its compact versatility the operating system uses minimum power of handset battery and gives the sufficient backup to the handset.

Camera
This is one of the main feature of any smartphone and the camera decide the future of the mobile because there is a trend to use high end camera with different features and there are lots of smartphones available in the market which are equipped with high end camera so if Huawei want to be in the wing they need to follow the trend with maximum feature. In Ascend P8 company select 13 mega pixel rear camera with 4160 x 3120 Pixels and Autofocus, Led Flash and optical image stabilization. This OIS system is a technology specially designed for cameras that physically moves the camera lens to balance the camera movement and users can easily adjust and take the far object images without facing the distance problem. OIS uses an insignificant gyroscope to sense small hand movements and direct small actuators to move the lens in real time, in the opposite direction to balance the camera and this keeps the image stable for the camera sensor even though the camera has moved.
Beside the rear smart camera the Ascend P8 also has 8 mega pixel front facing camera. By using this well enough front facing camera users are able to take better selfies and will have the great experience of video calling.
Battery
For running the whole handset in a logical manner the smartphone need a powerful backup to keep the cell phone alive. For this Huawei placed non removable 4000mAh battery inside the handset.

If the price becomes true the handset might beat the rivals easily.
