Running the Android Marshmallow operating system, the premium phone features a 5.7-inch WQHD 518ppi AMOLED screen and an all-metal body design that gives the mobile device a sleek and elegant look. Crafted from aeronautical-grade anodized aluminum with diamond chamfers encircling its edges, the sculpted back of the phone accents the low-light-loving, fast-movement-capturing 12MP rear camera.
The phone also features an eight-core 1.9GHz Snapdragon 810 v2.1 processor, 3GB of RAM, a 3450mAh battery, and 32GB, 64GB, or 128GB of storage, and Adreno 430 graphics. In the Philippines, it will be available in two colors: graphite and champagne gold.

Google says the Nexus 6P has the best camera to ever grace a Nexus smartphone, specifically touting low-light performance. It has a 12MP rear camera with laser auto focus, and an 8MP front camera. The Nexus camera is great for outdoor photography, but where it really shines is in conditions with less-than-ideal lighting.
The larger 1.55um pixels capture more light even in the dimmest conditions to produce stunning details and sharp images. Nexus 6P is also capable of recording 4K and high-frame-rate slow-motion videos. The 8MP front facing camera utilizes Google’s innovative HDR+ technology, making it one of the best selfie cameras in the market.
With the reversible USB Type-C port, there’s no more guessing which way is up. The included Type-C fast charger gives up to seven hours of battery life from a 10-minute charge.
One-touch security
The Nexus 6P is quicker and more secure with Nexus Imprint, a fingerprint scanner located on the back, which can be used to unlock the device and to authenticate purchases with Android Pay or in the Google Play store. One touch will turn on the phone and unlock apps for smooth, easy access. The best part? Registering a new fingerprint takes no longer than eight seconds.
“Huawei has been looking forward to working with Google to deliver the most premium Nexus experience to the Philippine market,” says Corinne R.Bacani. “The Nexus has always been one of the most anticipated smartphones every year and Huawei is very proud to further our relationship with Google and put our mark of premium elegance on the Huawei Nexus 6P.”
“We’re excited to partner with Huawei to introduce customers to Nexus 6P, our most premium phone yet and Android 6.0, Marshmallow, our most polished and highest-performing OS ever,” said Hiroshi Lockheimer, VP Android, Chromecast and Chrome OS at Google, in a statement.
