The Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 is a smartphone launched during several roadshows in the Philippines on July 1, 2019. It features a motorized pop-up selfie camera, dual-tone color scheme, and triple rear cameras. The motorized pop-up camera has a resolution of 16 Megapixels and results in a notch-less FullView display. It automatically pops-up when taking a selfie and retracts when the camera app is closed. Meanwhile, the triple rear camera array is composed of a 16 Megapixel main camera, 8 Megapixel ultra-wide camera and a 2 Megapixel depth sensor for bokeh effect.
Of course, it has AI features for automatically enhancing images based on the scene. The phone’s display is 6.59 inches with a Full HD+ resolution or 1080 x 2340 pixels. A HiSilicon Kirin 710F chipset powers the device with a 2.2GHz octa-core CPU, Mali-G51 graphics processor and 4GB of RAM. There’s also 128GB of built-in storage, Android 9 Pie operating system, and EMUI 9 software out of the box. The Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 has a large 4,000 mAh battery but the charging speed of the bundled charger is 5V/2A only. It uses a USB Type-C port though. For security, the device has a fingerprint sensor at the back while Face Recognition is disabled perhaps to reduce strain on the pop-up mechanism.
