Like the configuration of the evening series P9 is a good. But can not compare with LG G5, S7, HTC 10.
This series P9, addresses those who want a configuration of the top, but at a lower price.

    Both are really good phones let down by their prices only.

      Same tired old interface though, they need to upgrade this emui interface. Also Huawei phones do not play well with 3rd party launchers so beware. If you use Apex, Nova, etc… launchers you will have problems with all Huawei phones.

        Camera definitely feels gimmicky.

          fusk, 06 Apr 2016Don't really care about 4k recording on a phone tbh. I'd rather have really good 1080p recordi... moreI agree all this 4k nonsense is only to prove how quickly a device can devour a battery. 1080p is more than enough for me IMO also 4k video uses way too much from my note 4 and QHD screens also useless to me. You sir are 100% correct.

                  In the category that fits this series P9, now, momentary is superior to other phones.

                    And Huawei makes better phones as Samsung, Apple. They will see results soon.

                      Don't really care about 4k recording on a phone tbh. I'd rather have really good 1080p recording. I've never been in a situation where the 4k recording abilities in my phone was of any use to me.

                        "basically what the Exynos 8890 would have been if Samsung didn't switch to custom "big" cores."

                        Not really. The Kirin has a 4 core Mali T880 the Exynos has a 12 core Mali T880. Also clock for clock the Mongoose cores have 15% higher IPC.

                                "The Huawei P9 is the first to offer a live bokeh preview (usually, phones render it after the fact, which takes a few seconds)."
                                There is no other smartphone that can offer realistic DSLR-like bokeh. This is supposedly the first phone with very realistic DSLR-like bokeh. Most of the time the results of the Google camera app are not realistic and useless.

According to review mi5 has 4hours of Sot. Not incredible. Moreover sd 820 is not knowned for being incredible for battery life. Look at Samsung S7 with sd820 vs exynos 8890

                                    Seems to be the common trend right now.
                                    I'm happy with it here - I just need to hear the thing ringing in my front pocket. Most people put their phone in head first so it makes sense.

                                      First look and first number one in sales,(for this category of phone segment) for HUAWEI.
