Dual-SIM Huawei P9 lite mini quietly launched in Europe for €190

Huawei continues to take advantage of its previous flagship by launching new smartphones derivative of the P9, its dual-camera high-end device that made its debut on the market last year.

The P9 lite mini is a mid-range smartphone that's smaller than the regular P9 lite, another variation of the Huawei P9 flagship. Even though the Chinese company did not officially introduce the P9 lite mini, it appears that at least one retailer in Hungary will sell the dual-SIM version of the smartphone for €190 beginning late August.

Unlike the Huawei P9 lite that sports a 5.2-inch full HD display, the mini version comes with a smaller 5-inch display with HD (720p) resolution. Hardware-wise, the P9 lite mini has a 1.4GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 processor, along with 2GB RAM and 16GB expandable storage.

The phone retains the same 13-megapixel rear-facing camera on the P9 lite, but the 5-megapixel (down from 8-megapixel) selfie camera is different. As expected, Huawei P9 lite mini is powered by a 3,020 mAh battery and runs Android 7.0 Nougat with EMUI 5.1.

Huawei is likely to make the Huawei P9 lite mini available in more European countries starting September, hopefully, for the same small price. It also worth pointing out that a single SIM variant will be launched on the market sometime this fall.
