The P9 is one of the best looking cover samsung s4 mini gelato smartphones available cover samsung galaxy grand neo plus anime at the moment, with clean lines, smooth edges and an unfussy look. cover samsung s6 3d It’s not as eye catching as Samsung’s curvaceous Galaxy S7 Edge, but it’s certainly on a par with Apple’s iPhone 6S.
The phone feels like a premium piece of electronics. It’s all metal body, smooth glass front and slightly rounded sides are solid and well made a big step up over last year’s cover custodia cover samsung s20 1 samsung galaxy s3 neo juve P8. It’s tactile and nice to hold, but the back isn’t too slippery, meaning it’s easier to hold than some other all metal phones.
The P9 is definitely thin and custodia cover iphone 6 6s plus light enough. pokemon anime coque iphone 11 It weighs 144g and is only 6.95mm thick, which is almost a full millimetre thinner than the 7.9mm thick Galaxy S7 and 0.15mm thinner than an iPhone 6S.
The 5.2in full HD LCD screen is one of the better displays currently available on a smartphone, with good colour saturation and viewing angles. It isn’t cover samsung galaxy n nearly as high density as the quad HD screen of the Galaxy S7, and is noticeably less sharp when up close and personal with the phone, but most will likely not care.

Like Apple and Samsung, Huawei produces its own processor and graphics chips. The P9 has an octa core Kirin 955 chip, which compares relatively favourably to the current crop of top of the line processors. Custodia Cover iphone 11 pro max logan wolverine 2017 Z4730 Case It has a less powerful graphics processor, but it wasn’t noticeable in general use.
The P9 behaved generally well, with a snappy response and without any problems multitasking or playing the odd game of Asphalt 8 or Super Crossfighter.
The phone could get hot when intensively downloading apps, such as when setting it up for the first time, and after an extended gaming period, but generally ran cool.
Battery life using cover iphone paint Huawei’s Smart power plan was reasonably good, lasting just about 28 hours between charges. That was using the phone as my primary device, listening to four hours of music a day via Bluetooth headphones, browsing and using apps for three hours and with hundreds of push notifications and emails coming in cover samsung s5 con strass through the day.
Even with heavy use, taking photos and navigating my way home late at night, it would still last until bed time. Huawei’s Performance power plan shortened battery life by a few hours, but the Ultra Power saving mode offers tyler the creator samsung galaxy s9 hoesje cover samsung to essentially double marcelo burlon cover samsung s8 battery life limiting usage to basic calling and messaging.
Charging the battery took a couple of hours because cover samsung galaxy core the P9 lacks any quick charging, which is disappointing. Custodia Cover iphone 11 pro max Justice League of America L1444 Case coque iphone 6s marie aristochat It won’t make any difference for the typical overnight charge, but it will make topping it up during the day take a lot longer.
Android, but not as you might recognise it
Huawei insists on heavily customising the standard Android experience with what it calls Emotion UI (EMUI). coque iphone 5s tic et tac The P9 runs EMUI 4.1, which is a little more polished than previous versions, with smoother animations and snappier response, and is based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
It works essentially the same way as EMUI 3.1 as featured on the Huawei Honor 5X. cover custodia case iphone 11 H0796 baby yoda wallpaper 5rF8 It doesn’t have an app drawer, meaning every app installed on the phone must be on the homescreen, resembles Apple’s iOS with copycat features for Apple’s Spotlight, time based notifications lists and other bits and pieces.
It isn’t terrible, but it takes longer to do certain things than cover samsung s7 edge calcio the standard Android experience and, by default, looks ugly with boxy boarders around app icons. cover iphone 11 full moon EMUI has full theming support, and a store. There are a few nice touches too, such as the clock animation, the ability to move multiple icons at once on a homescreen, a sound playing icon on the app switcher and some advanced gestures, which are all disabled by default but are there if you want them.
The multitasking app switcher resembles iOS 8’s but has nice features such as an audio playing indicator in the top corner of the app card. personnaliser sa coque iphone 6s Photograph: Samuel Gibbs/The Guardian
EMUI also has greater app control built in for monitoring power usage, allowing users to identify problem apps and shut them down something that can be a difficult process on unrooted Android devices. But the extensive customisation that Android has to go through to become EMUI also slows down updates to Android, which is a pain point for users, who generally have to wait anywhere up to nine months for major updates after they are released by Google.
Some won’t mind EMUI, it’s not as slow or bloat filled as some customised Android experiences can be from other manufacturers. coque samsung s2 ebay Some may like it, particularly with theme support. I don’t, and would recommend using a custom launcher such as cover samsung j5 2015 silicone brillantini Nova or Google’s Now Launcher.
The P9 is the first phone to come with two full resolution cameras on the back. One is a 12 megapixel colour sensor, the other is a 12 megapixel monochrome sensor.
The two work in tandem to boost low light performance one recording colour information, the other recording additional light information. The result is very impressive low light photography, producing images that are balanced come pulire cover samsung s4 without noise that are easily as good as any other smartphone, and perhaps better.
The cameras deliver good detail, good colour balance and offer a variety of interesting modes. One is dynamic software based aperture adjustment both when taking the photo and after the fact.
