"...it can't record 4K 2160p video..."
Oh please, as if "phones" can truly capture the sharpness of 4K. It's the same with 1080P I've yet to see a phone that can capture the detail of a good blu-ray 1080P nat-geo or discovery film. Or any film for that matter. Most 1080P I see look more like upscaled vga. If they provide 4K video then I EXPECT better than blu-ray captures not the crap we have today.

"...despite having to render 78% more pixels,..."

Imagine what fantastic figures they would have got with FHD instead of those performance wasting 78% more pixels. 15fps+78%=26fps, I'd rather have THAT onscreen performance than a stupid 15fps (which looks goddamn awful in games and video). Which actually demote the usefulness of both 4K video and QHD screens, you can't view the 4K 30fps capture at 30fps!?!?!?

I like that bracelet though. IMHO it's one o/t more useful "smartwatches". But how do charge it? Do you need to remove it from the bracelet or does it need the bracelet to charge? Come on GSM-arena. You left out the most interesting part of Huawei's products (the phones aren't interesting, they're too expensive for what you get)

Hey people, we must wait and see revies from users. And only after we can compare this phone with others. Till then, here we make only supposition! I own an ascend p7, wich for my needs is super, and it is quite looking superb. It works verry good. And before that i had an ascend y330, of what i was verry pleased. It works good after 3 years.
What i want to say is that every user has his needs, and every user search the smartphone wich he think will complete almost all his needs!

That's a nice lock screen copy of Windows phones' lock screen.
95% the same. Even the fonts is strikingly similar.

I'm glad that other manufacturers are trying to catch up to Windows's advanced UI. (most advanced UI in the mobile market)

Huawei manufactures of mid-range phones. It empowers them in such a way to cover a wide range of options. In conclusion, you are more advantaged, as well as quality and price, if you buy a phone Huawei, unless you buy produced by Samsung, Apple.

Unfortunately, the P9 can compare, just used the S7 Samsung, because of that, use Kirin chipset. By far the winners are LG G5, HTC 10, till this moment, can't compare anyone.

The true reason for not implementing a QHD screen in this phone is the GPU.Mali T880 MP4 just can't manage a QHD screen.That's the reason why samsung has put 12 cores in its T880 configuration.

user.atef, 07 Apr 2016if you go to huawei site they clearly stated "Leica dual lenses", don't spread false rumors ... moreTheir marketing will tell you anything they wanted to.But there is difference between Leica-branded and Leica produced lenses.I dont say its a bad lens per se,but is only designed by Laica,they dont produce such a small lenses with plastic elements!
And to be honest,the deal for cooperation between Huawai and Leica was struck barely a month ago.So i am very skeptical that Leica even design something for them,as R&D process for smarthphones takes a year.
We will wait and see,but my reasoning tells me not to expect too much.After all they were hyped the P8 camera in the very same way,and it end up as slightly better than average 13MP shooter with some utterly gimmicky features.
Cheers
