Huawei P9 lite - user opinions and reviews

I am rather sure they meant the 2017 version, which does have the glass back. Personally I have owned both the 2016 and 2017 versions. The 2016 version is much better in terms of design, but the battery seemed to be worse.

Hey smartpants How can you even break the back glass if the back of the phone is plastic? Think a little bit before you write something
