Huawei Mate 9 Lite News & Update: Low-end Variant of Flagship Features Android 6.0 Marshmallow, Non-expandable Memory & No Leica Cameras

Huawei's range of flagship smartphones has an addition to its family, the new Mate 9 Lite. It's a smaller, less-capable version of its Mate 9 Pro and Mate 9 Porsche Edition, and doesn't have much to offer in terms of specs. That is, if you want the full fancy details of the Mate 9 Pro.

The new Huawei Mate 9 Lite is the low-end variant of flagship of the brand, and it features Android 6.0 Marshmallow. According to NDTV, its power source is the quad-core Kirin 655 processor, and is packed with a 3GB RAM. The downside to this is that it has a 32GB non-expandable memory/RAM, which means you'll probably have to be deleting files all the time if you're media-heavy.

The new Huawei Mate 9 Lite runs Androidd 6.0 Marshmallow, and has a 3340mAh non removable battery. The screen is 5.5-inch with a 1,920 x 1,080 Full HD display. It weighs as little as 162 grams and measures 150.9h by 76.2w. It's only 8.2 thick and features a dual SIM (GSM and GSM) slots for Nano-SIMs. In terms of connectivity, you have the regular Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, 3G and 4G. It's also equipped with the Compass Magnetometer, Proximity sensor, Accelerometer, Ambient light sensor and Gyroscope.

Unfortunately, the new Huawei Mate 9 Lite has no Leica cameras. Users of Huawei's Mate 9 Pro and other flagship products would know that the Leica cameras are a staple amongst most of Huawei's prodcuts. The Mate 9 Lite, despite having both back and front facing cameras, doesn't have a Leica camera at all.

According to Tech Times, the Huawei Mate 9 Lite's primary camera is capable of taking 12MP photos, while its front-facing camera is at 8MP. To compare, the Mate 9 Pro has a 20MP primary camera. Users who are looking to purchase the Huawei Mate 9 Lite should know that it will come in two variants, the 3GB RAM and 32GB internal storage version and the 4GB RAM and 64GB internal memory version. It will also come in three colors: gold, gray, or silver. There's no price and release date attached to the Huawei Mate 9 just yet, so make sure to check back for more details.
