Huawei, Leica Camera partner to debut the P9, world’s first dual-camera smartphone

Huawei Consumer Business Group (BG) officially launched its newest phone dubbed ‘P9’ during an exclusive launch held at Dubai Design District in Dubai, United Arab Emirates on Monday, 25th April 2016.

During the launch, Huawei also announced a strategic partnership with Leica Camera AG, which will see both technology and photography brands combining their shared ethos in a long-term commitment to the art of craftsmanship, meticulous engineering and the spirit of winning collaboration, to create a powerhouse in the reinvention of smartphone photography.

The Huawei P9 is the first smartphone that has been built in conjunction with the global iconic brand, Leica Camera AG. As a result of this partnership, the Huawei P9 takes smartphone photography to the next level with rich user experience on picture quality and image focusing speed ultimately delivering photos with superior richness, clarity and authenticity.

The P9 also sports, Huawei’s world-leading biometric recognition technology aimed at protecting P9 and P9 Plus users against unauthorized access to their device. For the P9 and P9 Plus, Huawei is rolling out an enhanced fingerprint sensor that allows people to personalize and safeguard their devices.

Fingerprint sensors based on 2D technology may fail to detect fraudulent use. For example, 2D sensors may mistakenly grant access to users who fraudulently obtain someone’s fingerprint. Also, in some cases older fingerprint technology may fail to authenticate rightful users. The new 3D technology on the P9 and P9 Plus will eliminate these flaws, reduce false
rejection rates.
