Huawei Mate 9 was recently available for purchase in the U.S. It looks to take on Samsung and Google with a thin, light handset that brings a huge screen and a ton of power.

Green Bot reported that Huawei Mate 9 comes with 5.9inch 1080 x 1920 IPS LCD display. It is 2mm longer and 3mm wider than the Pixel XL but still managing to squeeze half an inch of extra screen. It has a low density of 373ppi, but the 1080p resolution doesn’t affect the Mate 9 experience. It has slight curves similar to Galaxy S7 Edge but the display ends before the curve. The power button is moved below the volume rocker on the right edge of the device.

At the back of the phone, you can find the fingerprint sensor. Mate 9 has Huawei’s own HiSilicon Kirin 960 octa-core processor. It is a little CPU design with four ARM 2.4GHz Cortex A73 cores couple with four Cortex A53 cores clocked at 1.8Ghz. The phone rarely gets warm, even under heavy loads. The phone comes with giant 4,000mAh battery and it manages to last a whole day which is impressive. It comes with SuperCharge to quickly power it up.

Huawei Mate 9 has a real big feature, Telegraph UK reported. It is the second generation Leica dual-lens camera with 2x Hybrid Zoom, a 12-megapixel RGB sensor, 20-megapixel monochrome sensor and a dual tone LED flash. This phone is capable of black and white photography with ease. The pictures Mate 9 can take are gorgeous. It has optical image stabilization and easy to access to manual controls which give tremendous control over every picture. You can even stick to the Mate 9’s auto settings and your pictures will be crisp and vivid. Leica Dual-lens camera brings out the details and focuses even in low light conditions. It allows more control over how much depth of field your wide aperture photos will exhibit. At the front Mate 9 sports an 8MP camera with several features that selfie enthusiasts will appreciate.
Huawei Mate 9 comes with a $600 price tag.
