The Huawei Mate 9, a smartphone with a giant screen for fans of beautiful images – The Figaro

VIDEO – The chinese manufacturer is tackling the tenors of the sector with its Mate 9, a model particularly well designed and equipped with a nice camera signed Leica.

While its main competitors-screen of 6-inch focus mainly on the comfort display and a few ancillary functions, such as taking notes, the chinese manufacturer Huawei shakes up a bit the deal with his Mate 9, a Android mobile a large format with a great camera, a fingerprint sensor and a long battery life. It should also be noted that this smartphone comes at the right time, just when its main rival, the Galaxy Note 7 Samsung, is removed from the sale.

Huawei we were already amazed with the P9, in which a camera had been produced with Leica. Same player shoot again for this model: it is a camera that is comparable, designed also with Leica, which distinguishes the Mate 9 from its competitors. It consists also of two objectives, one capturing the image in black and white, and the other in color. The two shots are then assembled to create the final image, which translates to a level of remarkable contrast and superb detail in the colors. The function of blur in the background allows you to create beautiful portraits, but its most spectacular remains the black-and-white, inspired of course by Leica, that sublime any snapshot.

This model is also characterised by a good quality of manufacturing. The screen of 5.9 inches, very luminous, and displays images in Full HD and faithfully reproduces the films and the games. Damage, the speaker is not really up to par. On the back, there is a fingerprint sensor that is very effective. And inside it, two cpus of 4 cores hyperpuissants that speed up all operations. The already generous memory with its capacity of 64 Gb, the Mate 9 may still contain more data when you add a microSD card. Add a long battery life, which takes on average two days, and you get a set of thoughtful features that make Matte 9 a product of choice. But also luxury because it costs a whopping 700 euros. Or even 1395 euros in a version designed by Porsche Design.
