The Chinese company continues the success story of its P series with the Huawei P9, and consistently develops its flagship further. Once again, the great IPS panel, good performance, photo quality of the Leica dual-camera, the strong battery life and generous warranty period primarily impressed us.

fast SoC; expandable storage; wide frequency configuration; good cameras; call quality; headset included; Quick Charge; USB Type-C; decent battery life

no App2SD, LTE Cat; 6 only, no radio receiver, no infrared, no MHL or SlimPort, USB 2.0 only, DNGs cannot be stored on the micro-SD, SoC throttles under permanent load

Huawei is not a name that naturally rolls off the tongue when talking about smartphones. Names that do often end up being "Apple", "Samsung", "HTC", "LG" or even "Sony". This is probably because Huawei does a lot of their business in their home of China, but they've been moving into Europe and want...

Excellent build quality throughout; with a decent enough design for the average user; One of the best fingerprint scanners on the market; Excellent camera that offers a little prestige through the Leica name; Flush camera module!!!!!

Will remind some of a certain iDevice on shelves; Why do Huawei keep shipping Emotion UI on their devices; Software lets the overall experience down massively

Huawei's smartphones seem to be getting better with every model they release and the P9 is no exception. For a relatively new smartphone, the sim-free price is reasonable, although some might argue that the 'premium' devices offered by Apple and Samsung are still superior and as such, the price...

Pleasing image quality; Simple to use; Great screen; Fun features; Great photo editor; Slow Motion Capture; Aperture adjustments in real time; Adjust focus after taking a shot; High quality black and white photos

Can struggle with scenes with a high dynamic range and at night; Video can be over saturated; Doesn't record 4K video

Though we've not had as much time as we'd like with the phone to really get to know it, an afternoon with the P9 allowed us to explore some of our local surrounds and see how the much talked about camera stacked up next to one of the higher rated Android cameras already on the market, in the form of...

I finished writing my review of the Huawei P9 on Friday. Today's Tuesday, I have a Galaxy S7 and two iPhones in my immediate vicinity, and I'm still using the Huawei P9.

True premium design; Perfect dimensions for single-handed use; Super fast fingerprint sensor; Information-dense notifications

Not the best battery life or performance from an Android flagship; Display and camera are just fine; not outstanding; Fans of stock Android should look elsewhere

I've used this phone as my main handset for several weeks now. It's bloody brilliant. The handset feels premium and it acts premium. No fingerprints got stuck on it, the phone operated quickly, it has a great camera and a great battery life.

There's a lot to like about the Huawei P9, particularly if you focus on its outstanding camera. The Leica-engineered two-camera setup delivers crisp, detailed shots along with several modes that should please more demanding photographers.

Terrific dual Leica camera; Bright; colorful display; Good performance; Nicely positioned fingerprint reader

Subpar battery life; Ho-hum specs compared with similarly priced phones; Slick edges make the phone hard to grip

I got this phone the day it came out, and have not regretted it. First, it is an eye catcher! But there is more to it than looks. I decided to write a review because I felt Phone Arena's didn't give the phone a fair shake. The camera is amazing, but I want to list a few things PA left out.

Camera; Design; Simple Mode User Interface; Shrink Screen; Built in knock screen functionality; Scrolling Screen Shot; Screen Video; Call Recording

Slippery when on shoulder; No NFC

Good smartphone. i purchased this phone for my wife and she is more than happy and satisfied because phone have a good camera and processing speed.

With the P9, Huawei has a flagship that matches the most powerful devices on the market that is an evident improvement compared to its predecessors, especially with its rear-facing camera.

Dual rear camera is very creative; Credible build; Solid battery; Intuitive Emotion UI

Poor GPU performance; Display lacks contrast; Confusing camera software; No 4K video recording; while Full HD video lacks quality
