Like the standard P9, the P9 Plus comes with a dual-sensor camera from Leica, a fingerprint reader and more. But how does it fair overall? Does it have enough to challenge today’s flagships like the Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge, smartphone htc 10 và LG G5? Let’s find out, in this in-depth reviews of the Huawei P9 Plus.

The kiến thiết language of the P9 Plus is identical to the P9, which is in itself very similar to lớn that of the P8. The Huawei P9 Plus has a full metal unibody along with chamfered edges & is basically a larger version of the P9. The P9 Plus has a slightly smoother brushed metal than that found on the Huawei P8 or the Nexus 6P and at just 6.98 milimet it’s quite thin for a 5.5 inch device, yet while still managing to lớn avoid any camera bump at all.

On the front you get a 5.5-inch display along with a discrete Huawei logo. There is no physical home button as all the navigation keys are on-screen. Going around the rest of the phone, the volume rocker and textured nguồn button are on the right, while the SIM tray is on the left. At the bottom you will find the speaker grill, the headphone jack và the USB Type-C charging port for the fast-charging 3,400 mAh battery.

On the back is the dual-sensor rear facing Leica camera along with the flash and the fingerprint reader. The camera cài đặt is contained within a black band including the extra sensor & the Leica logo.

Based on its looks alone, the Huawei P9 Plus is clearly targeted at the upper end of the market and it’s hard lớn deny that it’s quite a good looking handset. The P9 Plus comes in three colors: ceramic white, quartz grey, and haze gold. In the hand, the Huawei P9 Plus is definitely one of the nicest on the market và Huawei has done well to pack a flagship specs menu in a profile so ergonomic and svelte.

The Huawei P9 Plus comes with a Full HD 5.5-inch display and 2.5d glass. Although the screen size has been bumped up from the 5.2 inches found on the standard P9, the resolution remains the same at 1920×1080, this means the P9 Plus has a px density of 401 pixels per inch. However the P9 Plus does have one ace up its sleeve, it uses an AMOLED display and not an LCD display. The result is a display with the vibrant colors và deep blacks that we associate with AMOLED technology.

The display also includes “Press Touch”, which is built on Huawei’s screen pressure recognition tech. Using it you can preview images, magnify image details and access shortcut menus for some of the standard apps. For example, in the gallery you can press harder on the screen khổng lồ activate a magnifying glass. On the trang chủ screen if you force press on the camera icon you will get access lớn a shortcut menu. These menus also appear for the dialer, contacts và messaging apps, among others. The pressure sensitivity is configurable in the settings, which also provides a chạy thử area so you can gauge how much pressure is needed at the different levels.

The display is bright, and works well indoors và outdoors. The screen is vivid & saturated with some great contrast, it also has good viewing angles. You can change the màu sắc temperature of the display in the Settings menu khổng lồ a little warmer or colder to better suit your tastes, but for me the default settings were good enough. Overall, the P9 Plus comes with a great display that will provide a good experience regardless of what you’re doing on the screen.

The Huawei P9 Plus features an in-house Kirin 955 SoC build on 16nm FinFET. It is a slightly beefed up version of the Kirin 950 that featured in the Mate 8. The chip boasts an octa-core CPU configuration built from four Cortex-A72 cores, clocked at 2.5GHz, & four Cortex-A53 cores, clocked at 1.8GHz. The chip also features a Mali-T880 MP4 GPU, one of the most powerful graphics processors in Huawei’s armory. The P9 Plus comes with 4GB of RAM & 64GB of internal storage, along with possible expansion via the microSD slot.

In terms of every day use the P9 Plus is fast, fluid và great khổng lồ use. The UI animations are smooth, apps mở cửa and close quickly, and multi-tasking being a breeze. Games also work well on this device and while there are handsets out there with more powerful GPU configurations, the Mali T880 is a fantastic GPU, even in this 4 vi xử lý core variant. Although the benchmarks show that the GPU has a lower performance than say the GPU in the Exynos 8890, for most users the 3 chiều gaming experience on this device will be excellent.

The Cortex-A72 core is the latest, & highest performing, 64-bit vi xử lý core design from ARM. The use of a Cortex-A72 và Cortex-A53 octa-core SoC is reflected in the benchmarks. The Huawei P9 Plus scored 1829 on Geekbench’s single-core test & 6573 for the multi-core test. These are approximately the same scores achieved by the smaller Huawei P9. For some context, those scores are better than the Snapdragon 810 & the Exynos 7420. Compared to lớn the Snapdragon 820 và Exynos 8890, the Kirin 955’s single chip core results are lower, however the multi-core score is higher. In other words, according khổng lồ Geekbench at least, this is a leading flagship processor.

For AnTuTu the P9 Plus scored 97910, which ranks the device higher than the Samsung Galaxy cảnh báo 5, faster than the Huawei Mate 8 (as expected) và faster than the Galaxy S6. However it is slower than the latest flagships with Snapdragon 820 or Exynos 8890 processors. As for Epic Citadel the device manages a nice 59.3 frames per second in Ultra High unique mode, you can’t really ask for more.

The fingerprint reader on the P9 Plus is very good and really I have come to expect nothing less from Huawei. The fingerprint reader on the P9 was excellent and the P9 Plus has followed suit. Since the fingerprint reader is on the back, you can wake & unlock your phone just by putting your finger on the reader. You can also use the fingerprint reader to lớn trigger the shutter while taking photos, to lớn swipe left và right when viewing photos in the gallery, or lớn answer a call.

The Huawei P9 Plus features a single speaker on the bottom edge, next to lớn the Type-C USB port. The speaker is quite loud and the sound is reasonable considering it isn’t a front facing speaker. However, as with many smartphones, music can lack bass & sound a bit thin. I found that at full volume some tracks tended lớn distort and that the sound quality improved when the volume was actually turned down a notch or two.

As an added bonus the earpeice acts as a tweeter (with no bass, treble only). While this does enhance the audio, the earpiece output is very low in terms of volume và the whole thiết đặt doesn’t really deserve khổng lồ be called stereo. Basically if you place your finger over the bottom speaker then you can’t hear anything (except a few high pitched squeals from the tweeter/earpiece). Having said that the overall sound is better with this tweeter than without it.

The P9 Plus has a 3400 mAh battery, which is impressive when you consider how sleek Huawei have made the device. I ran Epic Citadel to thử nghiệm the battery life while playing 3d games. According to my calculations you will be able khổng lồ play 3d games for over 4 hours from a single charge. As for simpler tasks like browsing the web, you will get around 11 hours from a full charge, or alternatively you can watch locally stored videos for at least 10 hours.

Overall you will easily be able lớn get through a full day without needing to reach for the charger. My tests show that you should be able to get around 6 khổng lồ 7 hours of screen-on time during a 24 hour period, depending on your usage.

When it comes to lớn battery charging, the P9 Plus supports fast charging và a fast charger is included in the box. Using the supplied charger, it takes 40 minutes to lớn go from empty to 50% and 2 hours & 27 minutes lớn charge the phone from zero to 100%. The P9 Plus has a USB Type-C port for charging, however Huawei has been practical in that the charging cable has a USB Type-C plug at one end and a Type-A USB port at the other for connecting to lớn the charger or your PC.

As you would expect the P9 Plus also includes the usual assortment of WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and NFC connectivity options. The Huawei P9 Plus also comes with a plethora of LTE bands – just like previous Huawei devices – with support for most the major GSM bands in a single variant of the handset.

One of the extra features on the P9 Plus is the IR blaster. The bundled Smart Controller app allows you to lớn control TVs, air conditioning units, set-top-boxes, DVD players, projectors và more. Device thiết đặt is easy enough, you just need to pick the type và make of device và follow the on-screen instructions. Overall the IR blasted worked as expect and in my opinion is a good addition.

The Huawei P9 Plus runs game android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box, complete with Huawei’s Emotion UI 4.1. For some people the lack of a stock apk experience will be a stumbling block, especially since EMUI doesn’t include an phầm mềm drawer. If you haven’t heard of EMUI, the general look-and-feel is different to lớn stock game android with colorful square icons, desktop folders và a re-designed settings page.

However besides the UI changes there are lots of additional features that you don’t get with stock apk including a floating dock, motion gestures, voice wake-up, a one-handed mode & Huawei’s own take on a “do not disturb” mode.

Under motion gestures you can enable motions like flip khổng lồ mute, raise to lớn ear to answer calls, and a tilt motion lớn move icons and widgets. The tilt motion feature works from the home screen editing mode. If you touch & hold an icon or widget you can move it khổng lồ another screen by tilting the phone to the left or right. There is also the Knuckle gestures which allow you khổng lồ take a screenshot by double tapping the screen with your knuckle, or drawing a letter to open an app. Both types of knuckle gesture can be disabled if you find they misfire.

With the built-in voice wakeup you can talk to lớn your phone when it is nearby. Its usage is limited khổng lồ placing a gọi or locating your device, but it works quite well. The default phrase is “Okay Emy,” but can be changed khổng lồ anything you like. A similar feature is “Quick calling” which allows you lớn initiate calls when the screen is turned off. However you need lớn press và hold the volume down button until you hear an alert tone, then you can speak the name of the liên hệ you want to call.

Since the P9 Plus uses on-screen keys, Huawei as added the ability lớn customize the order of the navigation buttons. By mặc định the recent apps is on the right and the back button is on the left. However this can be reversed. It is also possible to add a fourth button for opening the notification panel. Tapping the icon is the equivalent to lớn dragging the notification shade down from the top.

There is also a theme engine that lets you easily change the look & feel of the UI to something that better suits your tastes. The theme store has dozens of free themes arrange in several different categories including Creative, Cool, Lovely, Cartoon & Sophisticated. Switching to a new theme is easy, you just need to tải về it and apply it, however you will need lớn register for a miễn phí Huawei ID.

Huawei has included a battery manager which gives you a high cấp độ of control over battery related features. For example you can mix a nguồn plan which will tweak the CPU according khổng lồ your usage (and so save battery when possible). One interesting feature which I haven’t seen before is the ability to change the screen resolution from Full HD to 720p. According lớn the battery manager tiện ích this can help save power! Other battery related options include a whitelist function to lớn ensure that certain apps keep running after the screen is turned off & a power usage firewall which warns you about power hungry apps.

There is also an ultra nguồn saving mode which will disable everything except calls và messages plus activate a simply monochrome UI. When running low on battery power this mode can địa chỉ several more hours of usage.

One of the key features on the Huawei P9 Plus is the camera. As with the smaller P9, Huawei has partnered with legendary German camera-maker Leica & included the same dual-sensor camera from the P9.

The P9 Plus has a 12 MP dual-lens setup on the back, one with an RGB sensor specifically for color reproduction and the other purely for capturing black và white detail. The camera cài đặt was co-engineered with Leica as part of a long-term partnership that was announced back in February. As a result the f/2.2 dual lenses carry the Leica seal of approval.

The idea behind the dual-lenses is the ability to deliver greater verisimilitude and better light sensitivity. The built-in monochrome sensor promises a 200% sensitivity increase compared to regular sensors & a 50% bump in contrast. There are three different focus modes on board too: laser focus, depth focus và contrast focus as well as a dedicated depth measurement chip. This means that both lenses can focus individually and the P9 Plus’ image processor will automatically choose the best result.

Apart from the more standard modes like HDR và Panorama there are lots of camera modes available including a full manual mode (which offers greater control over ISO, exposure và shutter speed) and a special shallow depth-of-field mode. When using the shallow depth-of-field mode you get the added ability of being able lớn refocus pictures post capture. From the gallery you can enter the refocusing mode and change which object is in focus và the depth-of-field, i.e. How far away (in terms of depth) another object needs khổng lồ be before it goes out of focus.

Other modes include night shot, time-lapse, slow-motion, & watermark. There is also a series of live filters available if you want to lớn get a little fancy with your picture taking. Huawei also added a light painting mode, that lets you capture light trails created by things lượt thích moving cars, or the stars in the sky. The effect can be really interesting, but you will need a pair of steady hands, or a tripod mount, to lớn get the perfect shots.

When in PRO mode you also get some extra options on the settings page, namely the ability to lớn save images in both RAW và JPEG formats, plus an option to lớn enable/disable the AF auxiliary light feature (which basically shines the flash LED lượt thích a torch while focusing in low-light conditions).

There are two things that detract from the overall camera experience. One is the lack of Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) and the other is the lack of 4K đoạn clip recording. The good news is that there is a software based image stabilization option when recording video.

The 8 MP front-facing camera adds auto-focus, something missing from many smartphones including the standard P9. The auto-focus is a nice feature and should make selfie junkies happy. You will find the standard beautification mode available, plus the Perfect Selfie mode. This mode allows you to lớn dial in a number of beauty presets that automatically get applied each và every time you take a selfie, making for a consistent look across all your self portraits, thus creating the perfect selfie!

My biggest complaint with the P9 Plus’ camera tiện ích is that it doesn’t rotate all the UI elements when you move from portrait lớn landscape. Although some elements vì chưng move, the settings page remains in portrait as vày the “PRO” settings.

I also took some monochrome images (one of the modes in the camera app) which I guess/hope uses the monochrome sensor:

Dual-sensor 12 megapixel rear camera co-engineered with Leica.8 megapixel front facing camera with auto-focus.
The Huawei P9 Plus certainly offers a lot. It’s thin, has a great battery, there is good performance, the dual-sensor camera và the nice 5.5 inch display. The only wrinkle I can foresee that could slow its wide spread adoption is EMUI.

Our review of previous Huawei devices, lượt thích the Huawei P8 and the Mate 8, have highlighted flaws with EMUI. One concern has always been that with so many flagship devices on the market, EMUI may prove lớn be a stumbling block to lớn some users, particularly in the west. However, I am not sure that I feel the same way about the software on the Huawei P9 Plus. I certainly liked the software on the P9 and the software on the P9 Plus is almost identical.

Like the P9 and the Mate 8, the Huawei P9 Plus has excellent hardware, but I also like the software. It isn’t stock Android & if you want stock game android then you aren’t going to lớn be happy with EMUI. True the UI is different, but it is still Android and you still get access lớn Google’s services, you can install the myriad of apps from the Play Store, and so on. What isn’t there khổng lồ like?

Having said that, it is also possible khổng lồ replace the launcher with an alternative like the Google Now Launcher. The trick is to lớn make the Google Now Launcher the default under Settings -> Apps -> Advanced -> Default app settings -> Launcher.

Huawei’s partnership with Leica means this is a great phone for photography enthusiasts, but also a great device for tech lovers, with a range of features that are befitting of any flagship device.
