The P9 Plus bụ snappy, powered through everything I threw at it and ran cooler than its smaller sibling. Battery life was also good, lasting 38 hours between charges using Huawei’s smart power plan, na narị Ịma Ọkwa, 10 hours of music listening, five hours’ browsing and app usage and the odd spot of photography and gaming. Most people will likely get two days between charges. Ndị ọzọ na-, more aggressive power-saving modes are available, as well as app usage monitors, which helps weed out power-hungry apps.
Unlike the P9, the P9 Plus includes fast charging in line with most other top-end smartphones, so topping up doesn’t require hours connected to a power supply.
Emotion UI 4.1
The P9 Plus has Huawei’s modified Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system called Emotion UI (EMUI 4.1). It’s exactly the same as the P9 and resembles Apple’s iOS, including forcing all the apps installed on the phone to be on the homescreen, not tucked away in the standard Android app drawer.
Some will like the look, others won’t. It has tighter control of apps, nke dị mma, and isn’t as bloat-filled as other customised versions of Android but isn’t as good as the standard Android experience.

The fingerprint scanner on the back is very fast, accurate and well placed for the size of phone. Not once in my testing did it fail to recognise my finger. You can’t unlock the phone using the fingerprint scanner without picking the phone up, Otú ọ dị.
Pressure sensitive screen
The P9 Plus is one of the first Android devices to have a pressure sensitive screen, which Huawei calls Press touch.
Its implementation basically mirrors Apple’s approach on the iPhone 6S Plus. Pressing hard on a Huawei app icon pops up some quick actions and shortcuts. Pressing harder still takes you immediately to one action of your choice, such as straight to the selfie mode within the camera app.
Users can also choose to hide the navigation home, back and recently used apps buttons at the bottom of the screen and to activate them with increased pressure, or set the top left or right corners as shortcuts to launch apps.
In the gallery app, pressing hard on a photo brings up a magnifying loupe with zoom directly proportional to how hard you press. It’s very responsive, and a decent little tool for inspecting detail, but most people don’t look that hard at their photos.
Press touch faces the same problems as Apple’s 3D Touch – it’s difficult to know what supports it, third-party app support is highly unlikely and I’m not sure whether anyone will end up using it. It actively gets in the way of moving icons around on the homescreen, but can be deactivated.
Android might add native support for pressure sensitive screens in the future, but I remain unconvinced by any implementation thus far.
Dual camera
The rear dual camera “co-engineered with Leica” is the same camera system as fitted to the P9, and as such produces good looking images and is quite a lot of fun to use.
The monochrome camera is particularly sharp, and makes the right sort of subjects really sparkle.
The front-facing selfie camera has a faster lens, which lets in more light with an f-stop of 1.9, compared to the P9’s f2.4. The difference is noticeable. Selfies look sharper, brighter and more detailed. In the relatively poor lighting it produced some of the best, most detailed selfies I’ve seen. There are various beauty modes too, but they all just end up losing detail.
kwuru
- The back is a lot smoother and polished than the P9, but isn’t as slippery as some other metal smartphones
- Double press the volume button when locked to quickly take a photo in less than one second
- Huawei’s app-control tools are excellent for monitoring power drain etc
- A few third-party apps come pre-installed, but can be removed
- There’s a third-party theme that removes the ugly bubbles around app icons on the homescreen I’d still install a third-party launcher such as Nova or Google Now Launcher
- There’s an IR blaster in the top to control your TV

The selfie camera is great, the rear dual camera is fun and the look and feel of the phone is top notch. The screen isn’t as crisp as rivals, but is still good looking, while the fingerprint scanner on the back is arguably the best in the business.
It’s just Huawei’s EMUI that holds the phone back – it isn’t as attractive or usable as most other Android versions. Some will like it, I do not.
