The Huawei P9 was voted the best European Consumer Smartphone in 2016-2017. The Huawei P8 won the same award last year. The combination of beautiful design, powerful hardware, and innovative camera gave the Huawei's flagship an edge over the competition. This is the fourth consecutive year that Huawei's devices have been recognised by EISA in this category, according to Android Headlines. 

“The exquisite design of the P9, praised by the EISA judges, is the result of exhaustive development and attention to detail from the world's top industrial designers,” said Glory Zhang, Chief Marketing Officer, Huawei Consumer BG.

News18 reported that the winning aspect of P9 is the dual-lens rear camera co-engineered with Germany's Leica, a 102-year-old renowned camera firm. Its 12 MP dual-lens camera on the back has one RGB sensor specifically for color reproduction and the other monochrome sensor for capturing black and white images in details. 

Other winners include the CoolPad Torino, which bested all in the European Budget Smartphone for the season. The LG G5 won the European Mobile Innovation award for its bold design. The Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge were chosen among all to have the best Smartphone Camera. The HTC Vive was voted to be the best VR headset and the Garmin Fenix 3 HR is the best EU wearable.
