Huawei Mate 9 review
A geek-pleaser Android phone with serious power and huge screen, in a surprisingly manageable body- Great screen-to-size ratio
- Gadget-packed camera
- Seriously powerful CPU and GPU
- Not as striking as some rivals
- Battery spec is better than real battery stamina
- AAA price
Huawei Mate 9 review: big screen, long battery life and dual cameras
The Huawei Mate 9 is a very large smartphone that does a great job of not feeling so in use. The curved back, minimal body to screen ratio and solid build mean it's easier to hold onto than you might expect.- expandable storage
- dual-sim
- great battery life
- excellent fingerprint scanner
- good camera
- massive screen
- big
- heavy
- screen only 1080p
Huawei Mate 9 review: the first choice, not the alternative
If the Galaxy Note 7 was still on the market, Samsung would be facing significant competition. But since that device went up in flames, the Mate 9 stands alone without any major phablet competitor. The iPhone 7 Plus makes comparable promises, but it is Apple.- High performance
- Long battery life
- Fast charging
- Better value than the competition
- Stereo sound in landscape mode
- Excellent reception
- Not waterproof
- Very large
- Mediocre gaming performance
- Display not recommended for VR
Huawei Mate 9 review | Should I buy the Huawei Mate 9?
Huawei's Mate 9 is, in our opinion, the best in the Huawei line-up, boasting an impressively large battery alongside powerful internals, an improved dual-camera setup and a sleek, gorgeous design. The benchmark results were some of the best we've seen, bringing excellent value for money.

Huawei's Mate 9 is the kitchen sink of phones. You get a boatload of features, such as an IR blaster, clever stereo speakers, a fingerprint sensor, and a big, bright, 5.9-inch screen. It also has some of the best performance we've seen from a mobile processor.- 12 hours of battery life
- Superbright 5.9-inch screen
- Fantastic performance
- Dual SIM tray with microSD slot
- Dull design
- Not water-resistant
- Grainy low-light photo
- Restricted to GSM carriers (AT&T and T-Mobile

Huawei Mate 9 review
Can Huawei's phablet take on the Pixel XL and iPhone 7 Plus?- Extra-long battery life Fast
- stable performance Flagship phone at a reasonable price
- Not waterproof Only Full HD display User interface still suffers from idiosyncrasies
Huawei Mate 9 review: The big-screen boss?
The Huawei Mate series did big-screen before big-screen was even fashionable. Now that it's an increasing norm, the Mate 9 finds itself the focus of greater attention than its predecessors - and for good reason.- A well-built big-screen device
- huge battery for longevity (around 16-hours of proper use)
- decent dual camera arrangement (with optical stabilisation)
- dual SIM and twin-app support
- Pricier than previous Mate models
- only has Full HD screen
- Pro version (China only) is so much nicer
- EMUI 5.0 is ultra-strict with app permissions and persistent in notifications
Huawei Mate 9 Review [International Edition]
The Huawei Mate 9 represents a real maturation of Huawei in a number of areas – most importantly in the company's dedication to a solid final product. What we've seen from Huawei in the past is a set of fairly good or really great components mixed with questionable execution.- Impressive responsiveness
- processor performs very well
- Back-facing camera is amongst best on the market
- Bright
- colorful display
- Expandable storage
- IR blaster
- Not available through US-based carriers (must buy SIM separate
- Pre-installed screen protector scratches easily
- Speaker quality not top-notch at highest volume
- Display just 1080p across 6.2-inches
Huawei Mate 9
The Huawei Mate 9 is an unashamedly big phone, and that's becoming an increasingly rare thing since the demise of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 . For the albeit pricey RRP of £600 you get a huge screen, beefy battery, brand-new CPU and plenty of storage and RAM.- Impressive battery life
- Lovely screen
- Much improved software
- Plenty of power
- Slightly dull design
- Still some annoying software quirks
- Camera not always reliable
