Huawei P9 wins European Consumer Smartphone 2016-17 at EISA Awards
Huawei Consumer Business Group (BG) announced that the Huawei P9 has been named ‘European Consumer Smartphone 2016-17’ by the European Image and Sound Association (EISA). Furthering its commitment to pursuing the best quality and design without compromise, this is the fourth consecutive year that Huawei has been recognized in this category.
Designed to reinvent smartphone photography, the Huawei P9 is the first smartphone co-engineered with the global iconic brand, Leica Camera AG. The P9’s duallens camera takes smartphone photography to the next level, allowing people to capture both vivid colors and striking black and white images of unmatched clarity, richness and authenticity.
Awarding the Huawei P9 European Consumer Smartphone 2016-17, the EISA judges announced, “Sometimes the value of getting the important stuff right cannot be understated, and that’s precisely what the Huawei P9 does. Sporting a 5.2-inch IPS-NEO LCD with Full HD resolution, octa-core Hisilicon Kirin 955 SOC and Android OS 6.0 with Emotion UI 4.1, the P9 is available in an impressive choice of finishes produced from a wide variety of materials.
But that’s not all, Huawei makes history by being the first manufacturer to introduce Leica’s photography know how to mobile devices. The duallens camera captures more light and provides better clarity for both photos and videos. While the 3,000 mah battery has enough power for capturing every precious moment between charging, the classy finish of those diamond-cut edges with rounded corners on the unibody design combined with 2.5D glass makes the P9 both practical and beautiful in equal measure.”
Henry Liu Country Head – Huawei Device Sri Lanka said, “The Huawei P9 is available in Sri Lanka offering flagship smartphone qualities and excellent performance to our greatest ambassadors, who are our customers”. We are continuously offering the very best of technology enhancing the lifestyles of our fans in Sri Lanka. The P9 is another fine example of an excellent overall experience”.
