That's right Huawei fans! The same company that brought you last year's most amazing smartphone - Huawei P9 is bringing another amazing device for the books. The Huawei Mate 9 is another revolutionary device that boasts in speed, power and camera.

The Huawei P9 runs on Kirin 960 processor and has 4GB of RAM packed in its glorious slimmed aluminum uni body. Just by the look of the Huawei P9, you can see that the design is more refined with the gentle curve and some really nice brush on some angles. I've yet to feel it on my hands but I think that it will be comfortable to hold and use.

As you can see from the photo, it has a finger print sensor at the back. It scans and recognizes gestures for easy accessibility.

The camera of the Huawei Mate 9 is also co-engineered with Leica, similar to that of the Huawei P9. The Huawei P9 packs a 12MP camera on the rear and 8MP on their secondary camera, while the Huawei Mate 9 rocks a 20MP/12MP rear and 8MP front. So you can expect better photos not just because of the megapixels but also because of the hybrid zoom function which uses the higher monochrome sensor letting you zoom up to 6x to capture more detail. 

It uses Leica optics, has face detection & laser autofocus with dual-LED (dual tone) flash. Shooting 4k videos won't be a problem, the Huawei Mate 9 supports 4K video recording with optical image stabilization. It also uses the H.265 video compression standard, allowing for video file size compression of up to 50%. 

If you're into games, then you'd know that you're lucky because the Huawei Mate 9 has a 5.9 inch screen! 

One really nice feature of the Huawei Mate 9 is the fast charging feature. The cable uses Type-C cable. The Huawei super charged technology gives you enough juice to last the day with just a fraction of your time. Just in case you're wondering the size of its battery, the Huawei Mate 9 has 4000 mAh of battery that can hold for a whole day. 

What's included in the box? Aside from the usual charger, the 3.5mm earpods / headphone and USB Type-C Cable, this one has a USB adaptor. It also includes another box that has the Mate 9 silicone case which is a good move because you'd like to protect the bad boy phone.

I'm not sure yet, but I think the Huawei Mate 9 comes in a 64GB model. Not sure if they'd release the phone in other sizes. But don't worry, the Huawei Mate 9 is expandable.This new amazing device has a 5.9 inch, 1080p display. Imagine playing your hardcore games in that big screen and enjoying the next-gen graphics processor which will be available in the Galaxy 8 this year.

It already runs on android 7.0, nougat and the new EMUI 5.0. One cool about Huawei android version is that it has some tweaks to improve its usability. The app drawer option is something that some Huawei fans have been longing for for a while now. The Huawei Mate 9 is priced at PHP 31,990. They also released the GR5 2017 priced at Php 13,990 which will be available on my next post.

If you're looking for a badass big screen phone, then I guess this one is for you. I'm still waiting to get my hand on the actual beast phone. So stay tuned to my next post on it. Follow me on instagram @mykesoon for more updates.
