Is It Worth to Buy HUAWEI P9 PLUS - Review Considerations
If we need bigger 5.5 inches screen with Super AMOLED type, then HUAWEI P9 PLUS is good choice to buy. We can choose the single simcard slot HUAWEI P9 PLUS VIE-L09 if we always need 128 GB external microSD simcard, or we also can choose HUAWEI P9 PLUS VIE-L29 if we need dual simcard simcard slot, but VIE-L29 will use simcard slot 2 as external microSD slot, so we only choose whether one to use slot 2 for GSM simcard or for microSD card.
