The P9 Lite as expected offers exceptional build quality along with great performance. Long story cut short it’s more than just a decent phone and perfect for everyday use.
This year’s P9 Lite had me blown away after I saw what this affordable device had to offers. We have a 1080p display, 4G LTE, and even a fingerprint sensor. Along with that Huawei was kind enough to provide a 3000 mAH battery and a 8 MP front camera for all your selfie needs. These are the features that need to be praised considering the affordability.
Warning!
Unlocking the bootloader will factory reset your phone. All your data will be deleted. It is advised to backup all your data. Also, we are not responsible if something goes wrong in the process.
You have successfully unlocked your bootloader. Now reboot your phone.
