Its impossible to root Huawei phone right ?

I had rooted my Mate 6.1, Mediapad X1, Mate 7 and Mate 8
You need to obtain from HW website first a boot unlock code first
Unlock BL, fastboot flash TWRP and boot into TWRP and flash supersu zip to root it
Is quite an easy task

Does it void warranty when u get the unlock code? Some companies do

Ohh.

I remembered I read somewhere quite impossible one.

For the past few days, I am leaning towards the idea of waiting for this year nexus.

Now probably will lean back to P9. :s22:

Reading their Facebook page, it seems they will launch the P9 in this region on the 5th May. Hoping immediate availability but I doubt it. Probably in stores at the end of the month at the earliest.

Some media claim P9 camera not good.

Huawei's P9 Camera Was Made By Sunny Optical, Not Leica [Update: Leica and Huawei clarify]

Currently using Iphone 6 Plus.

Xiaomi Mi5 Prime 64Gb USD $439.99 - Free shipping to Singapore

i have tested Huawei P9 during media event launch and I find Huawei P9 have good camera software compare to Xiaomi Mi5, but Huawei P9 have an issue when taking human photo and you have to adjust saturation -2.
The phone will get heat up easily while using the camera.

End of the day still a china "Sunny Optical" camera vs Sony.

Bro. Sunny Optical is the top dog of cellphone camera manufacturing in the world. Its customers include Sony and Samsung. Sunny Optical does not make sensors - the P9 sensors are by Sony - but it does undertake the incredibly complex task of making the entire ultra high tech cellphone camera.

"Sunny Optical last year added Konica Minolta,, for whom it is making handset lens sets, to its long list of clients which include Samsung Electronics, Panasonic, Sony, Fujitsu, Olympus, Huawei, Lenovo Group, and Xiaomi among others"
