Everything Specs
This winter, Huawei launched their high-end smartphone Huawei Mate 9 Pro. It surely offers some great performance but is severely overpriced. At its price of more than $900, Huawei Mate 9 Pro may not be the great choice for someone. Yes, it has Android 7.0 (Nougat) installed, Octa-core (4×2.4 GHz Cortex-A73 & 4×1.8 GHz Cortex-A53) CPU, paired with Hisilicon Kirin 960 chipset and a great Mali-G71 MP8 GPU, but all of this isn’t worth that money. Aside from that, 5.5″ AMOLED display with 2K resolution could’ve been upped to 4K resolution easily. And here we come to the main downside- the lack of microSD slot and not-so-great 64 GB or ROM.
Thankfully, there is a version with 128 GB of internal storage and it comes with astonishing 6 GB of RAM, enough to handle all of your needs. Huawei Mate 9 Pro boasts a great Dual 20 MP +12 MP camera, capable of recording 4K videos at 30 fps. The secondary 8 MP camera is average.

When you look at Huawei Mate 9 Pro specs, you can see that it's a great phone. Octa-core CPU, 4/6 GB RAM and 2K display are great and work well for me, but the price of almost $1000 is a little too much for this boy. I like it, but i've paid it too much, unfortunately.
