I even watched a video showing how much the P9 throttles. Compared to the S7, S7 got 30 degree Celsius while the P9 got 39 degree Celsius. And its performance gets worse as it gets hotter and hotter. And I am right, performance mode just overclocks the CPU but lessens the battery life and beast performance. I'm not confused. Yes, Cortex A72 is a nice set up but it's the Kirin 955 that makes the P9 get worse. Sad because that SoC is so powerful. Talking about the camera, P9 got some good camera, but we can't deny that Sony is better. Look at this

And DxOMark: http://www.dxomark.com/Mobiles
Huawei is a nice phone, I'm not denying that. But we should see that there are some options better than the P9, and Xperia X is one of them.

      Tourettes Guy, 28 Aug 2016Lol you're so funny man. We don't care whether the P9 is on... moreMate 9 will introduce new chip... p9 is using old but overclocked cpu... still p9 is faster in ur own link... kirin doesn't overheat... you've never used it... for the fare test you should compare z5 with mate 8... see the results for your self...

      BTW here v r talking about mate series. When mate 8 introduced it crushed all the flagships and were number 1 on antutu.. untill new sd, exynos arrived...

          Tourettes Guy, 28 Aug 2016Lol you're so funny man. We don't care whether the P9 is on... moreWhat are you talking about? They both use a72 cores. And the p9 has a better camera and a better price.

          And since when was the purpose of performance mode to reduce performance? The purpose of not using performance mode is to save battery, even the battery test on gsmarena used performance mode, and still got better battery life. And the p9 was faster in that video. You seem a bit confused.

Activating it just overclocks the CPU, resulting to more heating and shorter performance speed. The thing here is that the Xperia X uses a mid range SoC but it was able to beat a flagship one, which makes getting the P9 non-sense. And if you can find me everywhere, what now? Do I sound like I care? I have the freedom to like the brand I want. And my decisions are none of your business

                Tourettes Guy, 28 Aug 2016What did the X do to the P9? https://www.youtube.com/watch... moreLol. I would tell you that the p9 did better and that it wasn't even in performance mode, but I can see that you're the fanboy 'charge final impact' in the comments making a show of yourself and showing what a fanboy you are. You're quite clearly irrational when it comes to Sony. You even think their displays are better than the s7 apparently. Hahahaha.

                  Don't compare p9 with performance. Kirin 960 or what ever it will be called will compete it.. u can compare z5 with mate 8 though.. huawei chips are upgraded with mate series. P series just follow the same overclocked chip

They're just gonna release an overpriced phone with nothing new at the end of the year when there are plenty of substitutes that came out ages ago. The mate 9 will push the boundaries.

                                No comparison with the note 7 obviously. There isn't a single substitute for the stylus, which is the distinguishing feature of the phone. The distinguishing feature of Sony is large bezels and a camera with too much postprocessing. Yuck...
