Firstly, this limited edition Porsche Design Huawei Mate 9 comes with seamless curved edges, has a graphite finish and lovely black color. It has 6GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. At the heart of the phone, we find an octa-core Hisilicon Kirin 960 chipset clocked at 2.4 GHz along with IntelliSense i6 sensor hub and Mali-G71 MP8 GPU. It runs on the latest EMUI 5.0 based on the latest Android 7.0 Nougat OS. In the camera department, there are two Leica SUMMARIT lenses at the back - a 20 megapixel monochrome camera and a 12 megapixel RGB camera. It uses Huawei’s own ISP and comes with Hybrid Zoom technology via which we can get 2x magnification. Another impressive feature of the phone is its battery charging tech.
