There are several product model EVA-L09 for Single simcard and also EVA-L19, EVA-L29 for dual simcard slot.

 

 Other Pros and Cons summary of HUAWEI P9 (EVA-L09 / EVA-L19 / EVA-L29) :

  • Camera of HUAWEI P9 is one plus poin at this phone because it use Sony IMX286 sensors with 12 megapixel. This is first smartphone from Huawei which use Leica optical lens to give more bright and sharp photo. Huawei also claim, although it have aperture number f/2.2 for main camera, but the sensor can give more bright images for low light photography.
  • Advantages of HUAWEI P9 LCD screen is Full HD at 1080 x 1920 pixels to play all streaming video or offline movie at 5.2 inches wide. To give more protections, it already use Corning Gorilla Glass 4 screen protector, therefore we do not have to give additional screen protector. But if we are outdoor heavy users, then maybe give additional protector is good idea.
  • Goodness of HUAWEI P9 is alrady have fingerprint sensor for security protector or collaborate with several applications. We need to register our fingerprint first to make it work properly. The fingerprint located in the backside to make it easier. We still can choose other screen lock options like screen pattern or password or pin. 
  • Advantages of HUAWEI P9 operating system is already use Android Marshmallow, and it will get several update to fix bugs or improve performance.
  • Big ROM and RAM is very important at HUAWEI P9, but we have to know there are some model type which have 32 GB ROM and 3 GB RAM for EVA-L19 & EVA-L09 model, the 64 GB ROM and 4 GB RAM for EVA-L29.
  • Disadvantages of HUAWEI P9 because it does not have dedicated slot for micro SD at dual simcard model EVA-L19, EVA-L29. Therefore we have to share with secondary simcard slot when we want to use external microSD card.
  • Weakness of HUAWEI P9 is use non removable battery, so we can not replace the battery easily when the battery broken or when we need secondary battery backup.
