EMUI5 is bettee than emui4 plus feauture packed, there are aome bloats but can be removed easier, ability to customise the front capacitive buttons is great,also the fingerprint gestures

I love it that everything you need is already included.

Software wise, it's good, only some refinements when it comes to notifocation shade

EMUI went a long way since I last tried it on my wifes G7. This version is excellent and I even can have the app drawer which is what I like. Plenty of features, nice colors and options... I don't even feel the need of installing anything else like in previous phones I had!
The fingerprint sensor is awesome! I have 4 fingers saved (2 in each hand) and I turn the phone ON instantly in whatever position I have it.
Great camera too. I didn't try all the features yet, but I already noticed very good features. The selfi camera background blur effect is better than I anticipated! I can see the result right on the screen and make slight changes in position to achieve the perfect result! The speed of focus is great too!
And I think I don't need to speak about how beautiful the phone is. If you think it's beautiful by looking into the online pics of it, when you grab your hands on it than you know the true beauty... I'm speechless! It's the prettiest phone I've touched!

Just love emui 5..lets ee what they do with emui 6..

Honor 9 for sure will be a priority for EMUI 8.

The stock software application is good full and free of bugs and inaccuracies.
There is everything to explain what it is.

The Honor 9 comes with plenty of bloatware and useless apps like "mirror". The included software is pretty bad.

App is the better. but not there yet.
Basic software, gets the job done. Luckily there's an app store.
Camera lags when I change from portrait to landscape or vice versa
Hi,
The camera lags when I rotate the Camera from landscape to portrait and vice versa. It also lags when I move it around a bit. The lag is just for about a second but it's disconcerting nonetheless. I'm wondering if this is a software or a hardware issue. I've gotten one replaced but the replacement also had the same issue. Anyone else facing this issue?

Agree. Yes, the Google Camera Apps can take good pictures and videos but the amount of setting options or "special" features is very limited. Currently I'm using Camera MX :good:
Google Camera
I hope in the future it will be improve and more features/settings
I just hope they fix the exposure compensation bug that makes my HDR apps useless. (https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=196815)

While the camera software looks really nice, it is quite rough. The shutter can be slow at times, the "swipe from the right to access gallery" can be buggy, and it uses different settings depending on if you launch the camera from the lock screen or from your launcher.
Sucks. I can't understand why the shutter speed is always so slow.
stupid software for the awesome hardware. other apps like cameramx and footej utilize the hardware so much better than the stock
OxygenOS could be with faster response to bugs. Anyway after few updates on LP worked just fine.
I think they need few updates to solve some bugs in MM, too.
Just few months ago OP release codes and CM and custom roms are much improving.

This is an interesting topic to cover. On ease of use, the camera app is easily a 5 out of 5 stars. But under included features I'd say it is a 3. I don't want it to have a billion different modes that all the other providers put into their apps, but the fact it DOES NOT include a manual shooting mode is a huge oversight in my mind. My guess is they did this to keep the size of the camera app down so they make it very fast to launch, which it is. At least make a pro version of the camera app that includes all the fancy manual modes that are FINALLY supported in Android that the other guys are including. I want to adjust the ISO, the exposure, the shutter speed. I want to get creative with my photos and take amazing pictures that are taken using the specs I pick. Just my 2 cents. So I'm voting this at a 4 overall
Panoramic setting sucks ass! Came over from an LG-G4 and that camera had an excellent Panoramic setting. I was hoping for at least something similar from Google, but it looks like they just leaped years behind when this came out.
Image came out super blury and it didn't even capture the whole image, maybe about 1/3 of it.
Oh. I give it a 1
Here is an example from the G4.
In the photo everyone is sitting in a large circle around a fire to give you an idea of the span of the panoramic.
This is hands down the least frustrating Android to date.

Best version of Android I've ever seen, no bloatware and everything just... works. Being able to reply from notifications is so helpful too. Software is the main reason I bought the phone, so yeah, I love it!
You asked about camera software but the title says software only, leading people to think you are asking about software experience only.

Favorite/Least Favorite Features of the Honor 9?

Favorite/Least Favorite Features of the Honor 9​
After having my Honor 9 for several months now, I can create a decent list of all of my favorite features as well as my least favorite. I'll start with my list, and then you can feel free to add your own list in the comments.
Favorite Features
Camera
If you haven't seen the camera on the Honor 9 in action, check out this video to what what it's capable of.
Performance
The Honor 9 is actually one of the fastest phones ever. Even with the EMUI software, this phone will out-perform almost any other phone when it comes to speeed.
Design
I feel like the Honor 9 nailed the look that the Honor 8 was going for. The way the phone reflects light makes the phone stand out from any other device. It's probably my favorite looking phone ever.
Least Favorite Features
UI
The UI of Honor phones has always been something that really bugs me. The icons are just bad, the wallpapers are bad, and the color scheme is bad. Luckily this is fixed with a custom launcher with a new icon pack, but it would be nice to see Honor redesign the way EMUI looks.
Water Resistance
I think water resistance is a must-have for any flagship phone now. It sucks that the Honor 9 didn't get a water resistant upgrade.
For 400€ I can live without water resistance. The positive things on the phone are good enough to make me able to ignore that one thing (and this includes everything you said in the favorite feature part). Also, I don't see much of the UI because I use Google apps for most apps and I am also using an own theme. For me, battery and software update support is the bigger problem.

I personally holds a 8T and I'm quite a OP fan since the start. I've been very happy since. The software and its UX have always been designed with quality and thoughts.
However, since the OP8T, I've had quite my share of issues. Camera is bugging, its shortcuts are not working or forces a reboot randomly.
The camera, when it works is indeed easy to use and quite intuitive.
One remark though is the switch from 12MP to 48MP...
Hope this helps! Cheers
