The dual-lens camera takes great photos, particularly in black and white, and the phone's slim design makes it easy to carry around
Huawei's Android skin is awkward to use and loaded with bloatware. The screen resolution should be higher, given the price
It might take fancy photos, but the Huawei P9's high price means it's not a good choice over the similarly priced Samsung Galaxy S7...

We have before us two of the best high-end smartphones of 2016. Each brings a number of features that make it unique, so if you're torn between these two smartphones have to be clear what we seek in a terminal. The LG G5 stands out as one of the first mod...
Based on our time with the Huawei P9, we're pretty impressed. The metal unibody smartphone is utterly gorgeous and the attention to detail is impressive, from the chamfered edges to the slightly curved glass that makes it more comfortable to swipe from th...
Abstract: Not so long ago, though, Huawei used to need an introduction. But not anymore. Not after the success of the Google Nexus 6P and the amazing Huawei Mate 8, which possesses battery life performance that basically has to be experienced to be believed.Huawei...
With Huawei working with Leica has made an excellent camera smart phone. The most striking feature is of course the dual camera, which lets you create without too much trouble great photos. In addition, the built-in fingerprint sensor excellence. The u...

Huaweis custom Android overlay is unnecessary, no fast charge

excellent camera, brilliant fingerprint scanner, good screen, great build and feel, microSD card support, USBC, good battery stats, decent battery life
EMUI not quite up to scratch, fixedfocus selfie camera, no quick charging, no removable battery, screen not good for VR (low res)
The build, the feel, the camera and fingerprint sensor are all top-notch on the Huawei P9. It is the best smartphone the Chinese manufacturer has made, and is so close to competitors Samsung and Apple.The one thing that lets it down is the software. Versi...
Abstract: In this review I will talk about the phone and in a few weeks after longer use I will focus on its camera s.Of course a lot of comparisons were made to Samsung and Apple and of course this is larger/smaller faster better but once beyond all that what have...
We might not have considered Huawei as a strong contender a year ago, but the P9 has proved a formidable opponent. On paper the HTC 10 wins in some areas and matches in others, but both debut unique camera technology that requires further testing. µ...

Best fingerprint scanner on the market, slender design, dual camera solution is fun, microSD card expansion, ample power for all tasks
Some questionable software points, battery life not standout (as 3,000mAh would suggest), camera software (defocus) glitchy
The P9 is a step above and beyond last year's P8. It's got cleaner software, ample power, decent (albeit sometimes quirky) cameras, the best fingerprint scanner on the market, and a variety of features that successfully place it in among the flagshi...
