HUAWEI P9, the successor to the last year's P8 has put together an overall convincing package including its top-level Kirin 955 CPU, a dual camera setup featuring Leica lens, a better battery, and much more.

Dual-Lens Technology; Excellent Photography; Top-Grade CPU Performance; Robust Build Quality; Super-fast Fingerprint Scanner; MicroSD support; Good Battery Runtimes

Lacks OIS (Optical Image Stabilization; No VoLTE Support

Huawei has kept a low profile in the Indian market this past year, deciding not to launch its previous flagship phone, the Huawei P8 . Although sister brand Honor has been active in the market all this while, the only significant Huawei-branded device to launch in India recently was the Google Nexus...

Huawei is quickly becoming one of the largest smartphone presences in the markets and this year's blitz marketing campaign focusing on the new Huawei P9 is just evidence of how much the company is investing on this.
