After all, the smartphones that have come out recently pretty much have the same specs, same storage size and the same cameras. Yes, you can argue about the look and feel of the phone, but that\u2019s really just superficial. However, all that is about to change with Huawei\u2019s P9 and P9 Plus, their two newest smartphones that boast dual lens rear camera.<\/p>\n<p>You know the saying &#8220;go big or go home&#8221;? That\u2019s exactly what Huawei did when they co-engineered this phone with Leica Camera AG. Behind each lens is a 12-megapixel Sony sensor with 1.25\u00b5m-sized pixels. When looking at the back of the phone, the left lens shoots in monochrome, while the right lens captures color. This means one lens works to get the color right, while the other lens focuses on the details and structure of each photo you capture.<\/p>\n<p>What I like a lot about this setup is that the phone can take true monochrome photos. I didn\u2019t even know I needed a monochrome camera. I guess it does make sense since Leica has dedicated monochrome cameras in its product line-up.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1057\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1057\" style=\"width: 770px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9_-_All.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1057\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9_-_All-1024x365.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Credit: Huawei\" width=\"770\" height=\"274\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9_-_All-1024x365.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9_-_All-300x107.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9_-_All-570x203.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9_-_All-1170x418.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9_-_All.jpg 1502w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1057\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: Huawei<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We all know that speed is important when it comes to image focusing and processing. Huawei\u2019s proprietary Hybrid Focus technology and the independent depth measurement chip embedded in the P9 allow users to capture images with unrivaled speed, accuracy and stability. In addition, it supports camera focusing based on three methodologies \u2013 laser, depth and contrast \u2013 and automatically selects the one that yields the best result.<\/p>\n<p>The wide-aperture photography feature on the P9 allows users to experiment with innovative visual effects to create unique images and content. The P9 makes it easy to adjust the camera aperture to create bokeh and other depth-of-field effects, while keeping the main object in sharp focus.<\/p>\n<p>The one statement that really sticks out in my head is Huawei\u2019s claim that the P9 can capture 90% more light than the Samsung Galaxy S7 and a tremendous 270% more than the iPhone 6S. That\u2019s a pretty bold statement, but without me playing with the phone \u2013 I am a bit skeptic. When I get my hands on a P9, then I\u2019ll do a full and in-depth review.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1056\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1056\" style=\"width: 770px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9-Infographic.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1056\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9-Infographic-1024x663.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Credit: Huawei\" width=\"770\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9-Infographic-1024x663.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9-Infographic-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9-Infographic-570x369.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.jpegmini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/P9-Infographic-1170x758.jpg 1170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1056\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: Huawei<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>There\u2019s one feature that I really like and that is their new professional mode in the P9. It gives you full control over ISO, shutter speed, white balance, focus and exposure. RAW image output is supported too. This is a real plus for professional photographers.<\/p>\n<p>So, that\u2019s the roundup of what\u2019s new on the new with the Huawei dual lens P9 and P9 Plus phones.
