Huawei P9 Plus review: high-class phablet held back by sub-par software

Chinese firm's super-sized flagship is great, with fun camera, excellent selfies, snappy performance and solid battery life - it's just a shame about the customised Android

The Huawei P9 Plus is a bigger version of the Chinese smartphone manufacturer's first excellent offering. It claims to be "plus in every way" - and it doesn't disappoint.

As with the "plus" versions of other manufacturers' smartphones, the P9 Plus looks like a P9 blown up by 5% in a photocopier. It's smaller sibling is an attractive, well-made smartphone, the P9 Plus is equally so, despite the magnification.
