The smartphone industry is one of the most dynamic marketplaces out there. We know Apple and Samsung as the big smartphone players in the market, but Huawei surprised the market this week with the fastest phone of the year so far. You probably already know about the best phones of 2017, HTC U11, Samsung Galaxy 8 and others, but what about the Huawei Honor 9 The Huawei Honor 9 was unveiled this week and it is a major upgrade to last year’s most loved Honor 8. One of the biggest attractions of this smartphone is the dual-lens camera on the back, giving you both a 12MP color sensor and a 20MP monochrome one. The only difference between the Honor 8 and the Honor 9 is the placement of the fingerprint reader in the front and instead of the back. In terms of specifications, the Huawei Honor 9 supports Dual SIM, powered by 1.8GHz octa-core Kirin 960 processor, runs on Android OS 7.0 (Nougat), 32GB Internal Storage with 4 and 6GB RAM models and supports external storage via microSD card (up to 256GB). The Honor 9 packs a 5.15-inch full-HD (1080×1920 pixels) LTPS display with 428ppi pixel density. When it comes to battery, the Honor 9 is powered by a 3400 mAh Li-ion battery with Huawei’s SuperCharge technology. When it comes to the design, the Honor 9 has a similar design to the Honor 8, with a metal frame and curved glass back which changes color with light reflection. For connectivity options, the device comes with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, NFC, GPS, 3G, 4G with VoLTE, and GPRS/ EDGE.
