Huawei P9 release, specs, features: P9 Lite version spotted anew; European pricing revealed

 Huawei consumer website

While Huawei has yet to announce the much-rumored Lite version of the new P9 flagship, fans can expect the iteration to be officially revealed soon. The Huawei P9 Lite has been spotted online in a series of listings, and even pricings are supposedly already available.

In an exclusive by GSM Arena, an anonymous source sent what is believed to be and inventory listing of at least three  versions of the Huawei P9 Lite differentiated by their colors. On the list, the shipment is bound for the Belgian branches of French retailer Fnac. What is interesting to note is even before the lineup addition becomes official, the purported leak already reveals the pricing for the Huawei P9 Lite. If the price tags become official, fans in Europe can get the modest version of the Huawei P9 flagship for €298.95 ($337.65), and the iteration will be a SIM-free, globally-unlocked P9 Lite.

The listing showed that the Huawei P9 Lite will be available in black, white, and gold.

A previous supposed online listing for a Romanian website also lists the Huawei P9 Lite among its new additions. While the listing has already been deleted, Android Authority managed to get a screenshot of the webpage. Aside from confirming that the P9 Lite may be coming out soon, the page also inadvertently revealed the full specs sheet of the upcoming flagship addition.

According to the listing, the supposed P9 Lite, codenamed "Venus," is a mid-range version of the P9. It carries a Kirin 650 processor (down from the Kirin 955 SoC of the flagship) paired with  2GB of RAM. It also features a 5.2-inch IPS LCD that displays full HD resolution, and USB Type-C connectivity. Meanwhile, since it is a modest version of the flagship, it is also expected that the dual-cam Leica camera setup will not make it to the device.
