Huawei Y9 (2018) Specifications

Introduction and Performance

Huawei launched Y9 in March 2018 in India, and the mid-range device helped the Chinese manufacturer strengthen its position in the highly competitive smartphone market of the country. To kick-off the new year, the brand launched an updated version of the phone dubbed as Y9 2019 with considerably improved specs and design almost around in the same price range as its predecessor.

Camera and Storage

As mentioned above, Y9 2019 features a dual camera setup not just at the back but on the front too. The vertically oriented camera set up on the front features a 16MP primary camera with an f/2.0 aperture and a 2MP secondary sensor with an f/2.4 aperture. Turn the phone, and there is a 13MP primary camera with an aperture of f/1.8 and again a secondary camera with an f/2.4 aperture.

There are only a few other devices in the Huawei Y9 2019 price range that offer dual cameras on both front and the back. The phone comes with built-in storage of 64GB which can be further extended up to 400GB with a microSD card. There is a dedicated slot for inserting a memory card.

Battery and Display

Huawei Y9 2019 features a big 4,000mAh battery which the company suggests can offer talk time of up to 52 hours and music playback of up to 65 hours. Users who love playing high-definition games can continuously play for up to 9 hours without any interruption on a full charge. However, the phone does not support fast charge.

The phone has a large 6.5-inches Full HD+ display with a pixel density of 397ppi and contrast ratio of 1500:1. The display has a resolution of 2340 x 1080p and supports up to 16 million colours. There is also a Corning Gorilla Glass for enhanced display protection.

Connectivity and Platform

Like most new smartphones, Huawei Y9 2019 also supports dual Nano SIM cards with dual standby option. It features a 3.5mm jack and all the basic connectivity options such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, FM radio, and micro USB 2.0. It also has all the standard sensors such as fingerprint sensor, gyro, accelerometer, compass, and proximity.

The device runs on Android 8.1 (Oreo) with Honor's EMUI 8.2 skin on top. Huawei has already started rolling out EMUI 9.0 which is based on Android 9 (Pie), and Huawei Y9 2019 is expected to get the update between March and April 2019.
