It has one main central hardware key at the bottom which also acts as a finger print scanner, the phone by default has on screen keys but but they can be disabled, you then can enable a feature that uses the finger print scanner as a back function, so no hard press, just touch, and then if you hard press the key it will go home.
Good aren't they
I've been using mine caseless but just ordered a cheap clear rubber case from Amazon so I'll report back on it when it arrives.

I like the battery, but I don't like the camera picture quality. Too many blown highlights and generally looks like a lower end phone camera photo whereas Pixels/Samsungs etc produce images that don't look like phone images!
Otherwise seems a nice little (!) phone.

Nope, going by everyting posted online so far. I do have a Huawei P9 Lite here though that I got for one of my users. Really nice feeling bit of kit, still on EMUI 4.1, wonder when it will get the Nougat OTA...
Matte backs are the way forward, and the phone looks/feels premium, even if it's a budget handset.

Ah ok. The P9 Lite is a decent mid range phone. I like Huawei and their sister brand.
You can install Nougat for the P9 Lite manually since it has been released.

Excellent thanks, was looking for a safe manual update process

I bought this:

It seems good so far. It's light, reasonably grippy, fits well, has holes and buttons in the right places and a slight lip to protect the screen. Maybe the lip could be a tiny bit larger but it seems ok for the money.

Have any of you P2 owners, that perhaps have other GPS devices for cycling, tried using your P2 with Strava, Ghostracer etc. to compare accuracy?
Just went for a run for the first time with mine using Runkeeper and it gave the same distance as my Nexus 5 did.

Well I have an S7 (personal) and iPhone 6s (work) and have just replaced both with one of these.
Can't tell the difference in terms of day to use between this and my S7 and as I hate iOS like a virus I can't really compare.
Absolutely smashing phone for £199.

Where can you get a P2 for £200? Can't seem to see it that cheap anywhere?

PAYG - you have to add a tenner top-up, but I didn't do that as I switched to a Thre SIM.
Just updated mine to Nougat, fingers crossed for smooth sailing!
