Understandably, details on pricing and availability are still a little scarce, but the 4 major networks (soon to be 3) have all indicated that they will offer at least one of Huawei’s new handsets.

EE has only stated that it will carry the 5.2-inch P9. As yet there are no details on price, nor when it will be available but EE has said to expect more information soon. In the meantime, you can register your interest for the P9 on the network here.

Three UK is also only offering the 5.2-inch P9, once again there are no details on pricing or availability, although the network provider will throw in a 6-month subscription to the Deezer music streaming service.
