Unannounced Huawei P9 Lite Goes On Sale

While some are calling it a new edge in marketing, some are skeptical whether the move will be a hit in smartphone market or not. For some reason, the Chinese company Huawei did not unveil P9 Lite while announcing about P9 and P9 Plus. P9 Lite has been spotted in many retail stores in Romanian and Belgium. Quite recently, it has been listed by German online retailer in three different color versions – black, white and gold. It has a price tag of 299 Euros. The smartphone is listed as “Venus” in retailing sites and we assume it to be its code name. Even in such a digital marketing world, it came as a surprise that the reputed company did not make any official announcement about its release date or specifications to generate enough interest beforehand.

Now let’s come to the specs. It is having a 1080 pixel resolution touchscreen, a usual 16 GB internal memory space, expandable upto 128 GB via microSD. The size of the screen is not yet confirmed, but it is expected to be around 5.2 inch of HD IPS display and a dimension of 147 x 73 x 7.5 mm and weighing around 150 gram. Furthermore, it is sporting a 13MP rear camera with LED flash with 5MP front camera that supports all basic functions and it is powered by HiSilicon Kirin octa-core 650 chipset aided by 2GB RAM. It is running on Android 6.0 Marshmallow with Huawei’s EMUI 4.1. It is having a 3000 mAh battery backup and fingerprint sensor to boot it up.

With the above given configuration and the price tag, the device will definitely feature under budget smartphone category and at present it is creating enough buzz for all the right reasons.
