The P9 is Huawei’s first phone made in collaboration with camera giant Leica. News is that the device will be made available in India very soon.
August 17th is when the phone is expected to see a formal launch in the country. Unfortunately though, there’s no word on how much it’ll cost or where it’ll be available. That said, expect the phone to be available both online and offline with a price tag of around the 40,000 INR mark.
