Huawei P9 lite Full Review and Price

Hauwei just launched their new flagship, the Hauwei P9 Lite. People are more curious about the new features, alot of changes were made regarding the back and White secondary camera. Also, the phone is said to have less metal body unlike its superior the Hauwei P9.

The hauwei P9 Lite has almost the same design as it's superior Hauwei P9, the only change that was made is the new metal frame, the back cover is smooth on the hands which is 100% polycarbonate. Another change that was made is the replacement of the 12.3MP Leica dual camera with the usual 13MP HD shooter.

The Hauwei P9 and P9 lite has almost the same specifications. They both have eight CPU cores chipsets, but they are all A53 now, and the GPU has half the cores. If you look closely, you'll see that there's no 4GB option for RAM and you start at 2GB, while 3GB is extra. The camera downgrade really isn't necessary if you ask me, the company also scrapped some connectivity E.g  (e.g. USB Type-C and 5GHz Wi-Fi) and there's no fast charging for the 3,000mAh battery.
