It's not on DJI's list of recommended devices, but @Flawless and @BertNewton said it works well.

Add me in with my P9 Lite: video feedback is perfect with no delay and no image tearing

I use the Honor 6x and have had no issues at all...I'd imagine the P9 would do even better!

I use the P9 with a case on (having removed the upper rubber parts on the Mavic controller) with no issues.

Just make sure you turn off pocket protection and auto brightness!

Hi there, how was your experience flying with the p9? I have a p10 and I'm quite confused as in I've read people saying it's ok to use the p9 however it's still not recommended it... Haven't been able to read anything about the p10

It's perfect for the mavic. And it's a Lite. Maybe it's due to the fact it's dedicated to tme mavic so the only thing i did with this phone was unistalling the bloatware from huawei and installing the GO 4 app, just that. I think that can help a lot

Awesome! Thanks for the tip, gonna check it out

For those still interested in using their P9, I've recently done manual updates to mine (since Huawei's OTA updates just never materialised).

I'm still running official Huawei software (EMUI5) but using various methods, I manually updated to Android 7 directly from Huawei's servers. I'm currently on C432B390 (C432 refers to the source of my handset - an EU unlocked P9 with no carrier - and B390 is the current latest update from August, since we're still waiting for the September BlueBorne security patch).

I've had no issues with Android 7 and DJI Go or Litchi, but YMMV if you've got a carrier-supplied handset (since software does vary).
