The display is complemented by the good looking aluminum chassis, made using aerospace class aluminum. This makes the device lightweight and quite sturdy at the same time.

The edges of the aluminum chassis are slightly chamfered to offer good grip on the phone and make it comfortable to hold for extended periods. At just 6.95mm, it is quite thin as well.

A smaller display also means a smaller footprint, and the Huawei P9 is just 7.09mm wide, weighing about 144 grams. This makes it quite light, for a phone built completely out of metal and glass.

The dual camera module, which is made in collaboration with Leica, stays flush with the back of the phone and has no annoying humps, like many flagships these days.
