The image certainly matches what we've seen before, even down to the fingerprint scanner on the back. We expect to see four different versions of the phone. The Huawei P9 Lite will carry a 5-inch screen carrying a Snapdragon 650 SoC, 2GB RAM and 16GB ROM. The Huawei P9 features a 5.2-inch display. The Kirin 950 SoC is under the hood with 3GB RAM/32GB ROM. A 5.8-inch display will be found on the Huawei P9, Special Enhanced version, which will be powered by the Kirin 955 chipset. 4GB RAM and 64GB ROM will come with the phone. Lastly, the Huawei P9 Max will carry a huge 6.8-inch display, and will also be powered by the Kirin 955 chipset. It features 4GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB of ROM.
Richard Yu, chairman of Huawei Devices and CEO of Huawei's consumer business group, said last month that the company will pass Samsung and Apple over the next five years to become the largest smartphone manufacturer in the world. Is this a realistic objective for Huawei?

Really? You don't have such problem?
Then explain your comment - Ugly phone for ugly people...
It is a matter taste. Point of view.
For me P8 was one of the most sleek devices - especially in black.
P9 also looks very nice and I hope to get one in black.
What you'll comment when Apple comes with dual back camera? Ohhh it is the best in the world!
You're kid or at least acting like one.

Huawei is nothing but crap. Buggy software, bad camera, ios copy software.
Played with my friend's huawei phone and hated it.
Even he regrets getting one.
I hope this huawei president isn't using an iPhone or Galaxy himself privately.

Yes, it's unpleasant to use but it's never bad. But the camera is terrible, I approve that. Especially the selfie cam. Colours seem to be washed out every time.

Once a Chinese phone gets highlighted, Everyone seems to go nuts. A very nice hint of apprehension. The silliest ones are, 'copycat', 'clone software' and 'nothing but crap'. You know that these can be proven to be wrong, right?

Because they always tend to be clones. OnePlus is an exception. Look at Huawei,Meizu,Oppo, Xiaomi etc Their software is very much like iOS. Sometimes Hardware is similar too.

Hardware similar to iOS?!?
Do you know what you talking about?
Do you ever hold P8 for example? It is one of the best designed phones. Also camera is pretty decent and works well. All reviewers give P8 high score. If you don't like it, please do not blame for copycat. The only similarity with iOS is absence of app launcher, but everyone decide for himself. Personally - looks nice.

No, you're wrong
'they always tend to be clones'
They aren't, well there are many clones from China, but the brands you mentioned are not clones.
'software is very much like iOS'
Every software is very much like iOS, if you said those phones' software are 'very much like'
'Sometimes Hardware is similar'
No, it's not. And, it doesn't matter.
There is a common wrong belief in many countries that China only copy and clone stuff from the world, might be true a couple of years ago. But these days, the fact says otherwise, there are still many clones, but those brands you mentioned are not one of them.
