Though the rumour has
been on in the past few weeks, we finally got a confirmation that the Huawei Y9 Prime (2019) will be arriving
on August 1. The phone was listed on Amazon with its key specs and the launch
date. Some of its key specs includes an elevating selfie camera and three
shooters on the back.
Huawei Y9 Prime (2019) Features
The Huawei Y9 Prime (2019) screen is 6.59 inch in diagonal, but it is
likely an LCD since the fingerprint scanner is on the back. The display has not
notches, just a tiny bezel on the bottom because the selfie camera is in a
pop-up mechanism. Huawei is officially shipping the Y9 Prime (2019) with Kirin 710 and a 4GB RAM and it has 128GB of
internal storage.

The selfie shooter has a
16MP sensor and brings plenty of AI features, including “real-time image
optimizing in 8 scenes”. The main triple setup is yet to be made known in
details, but one of the lenses will be an ultra-wide-angle shooter, while the
third we assume is just a depth sensor for all the fancy background blur
portraits.
The Huawei Y9 Prime (2019) will come with USB-C port and 4000mAh
battery, but the chipset does not support quick charging. The phone will be
available in two colours – Sapphire Blue and Emerald Green, but the price and
availability will be unveiled on the launch date next Thursday.
