Smartphone Huawei Y9 (2019) - advantages and disadvantages

Everyone realizes that the best mobile device manufacturers have a hard time wowing their users. People have already had their fill of new products, saw many variations in appearance and performance, looked at popular models and phones at a low price segment.

In such a harsh market, only those devices that are really capable of impressing users defend their positions in the rating of high-quality devices. A clear example is the Huawei Y9 (2019) smartphone, the advantages and disadvantages of which are discussed in this article.

Huawei Y9 (2019) review

This model is the oldest of the entire line of low-cost phones from Huawei. The device is equipped with a large screen, bezel-less appearance and 4 cameras. His show took place in October this year, and the model hit the international market just a few days later.

Equipment

  • Smartphone;
  • Long USB cable;
  • Instruction;
  • Guarantee;
  • Clip for Dual SIM;
  • Protective plastic cover;
  • Charging.

Design and ergonomics

Both shell parts of the new model are made of 2.5D glass, and they are connected by a frame made of metal materials. This makes the smartphone look very expressive. The large display takes up almost all the space on the title bar. Its profile frames are very thin. On the underside, the protrusions are also extremely trimmed. At the same time, in the upper part you can see a "monobrow", and it is quite wide.

As mentioned, even the back is covered with a protective layer of glass with shallow edges. The vertical dual camera module is at the top, in the left corner. Below is a LED flash. The back cover has a fingerprint sensor that identifies the owner's touch in a matter of seconds, allowing instant unlocking. On the bottom edge there are almost all the main elements in the form of a MicroUSB socket, a headset jack, an audio speaker and a microphone.

The gadget does not feel very comfortable in the hand, since the shell is absolutely smooth. But the manufacturer of the performance device has tried to minimize the impact of the glass coating on the comfort of use through smart assembly.

The novelty is produced in three colors:

  1. The black;
  2. Violet;
  3. Blue.

The dimensions of the device are 162.4x77.1x8.1mm, and the weight is 173 g.

Screen

 

The model is equipped with an IPS LCD display with a diagonal of 6.5 inches. The aspect ratio of this screen is 19.5: 9. The matrix has a resolution of 2340x1080 px, which makes the picture extremely detailed. The display is covered with an elegant and durable 2.5D protective glass. The screen is quickly enough covered with prints and other traces, which is why it systematically needs cleaning.

In the reviews, users are advised to immediately buy a protective film.

It is worth noting the excellent degree of contrast, which makes the image very rich and natural. There are no difficulties with the review, since the angles are very close to the maximum parameters. Sharpness is provided with the ability to adjust personally, focusing on readability in the sun, or to enable automatic adjustment.

Filling

The new product has an 8-core processor from Kirin, which supports AI.This chip is based on 4 common Cortex A53 cores, clocked at 1.7 GHz. For active games, an additional cluster was installed, consisting of 4 A73 cores of the same Cortex. But in this case, the clock speed is 2.2 GHz. For watching videos and surfing the Internet there is a G51 MP4 GPU from Mali.

The usual modification of the phone is equipped with 64 GB of ROM and 4 GB of RAM. The upgraded version has 128 GB of internal storage and 6 GB of RAM. If the phone is going to be used for games of the "heavyweight" category, then it is possible to increase the memory by installing a microSD flash drive with a capacity of up to 400 GB. It should be noted that the novelty was equipped with a battery with a capacity of 4,000 mAh to achieve maximum autonomy.

Sound, communication, fingerprint scanner

 

The sound of multimedia is also good. There is only one speaker here, but it is quite loud, and without annoying disruptions in the high frequency range. In general, an excellent indicator for games and TV shows. As for the sound in the headset, it is the most typical here. It should be noted that the model has a mini-jack, which is now considered a colossal plus.

The fingerprint sensor, which is located on the back, functions smartly, but the face recognition sensor is very "thoughtful", albeit quite accurate if used exclusively during the day.

Smartphone owners are extremely unfavorable about the use of a face ID scanner in the dark.

There is an NFC block, which means that the owners of the novelty can pay for the purchase of tickets on transport, up to trips to the metro, where there is appropriate support. The performance of 4G and the Wi-Fi module does not give rise to any complaints.

Camera

But the camera of the novelty truly deserves praise. The 20MP main unit with 2.0 aperture allows you to take pretty good pictures in conditions where there is enough light. Otherwise, smears are formed, and "clicking" a decent shot will not work instantly. You need to stand in one place, concentrate and keep the phone calm. By the way, in camera operation, in particular at night, the "lags" of the system are quite noticeable.

In addition to the usual "Video" and "Photo", the program includes a portrait mode with different processing scenes - somewhat reminiscent of the tenth iPhone. An additional camera with a 2MP module is needed to indicate the depth of the image and separate the subject from the background. In this mode, the quality of frames is at the "so-so" level due to active noise reduction, but if there is enough light, then there is an opportunity to take a couple of cool portrait photos.

The model also has 2 front cameras with 24 and 2 MP modules (optional), which allow you to take excellent selfies with background blur. In addition, there are emoji with animation, different backgrounds and decorations for fans of such effects. The pictures taken with the front camera are good, there is even a sufficiently powerful flash on the display.

In the process of working with the main camera, AI is turned on, although these are probably specific algorithms, and most often artificial intelligence only adds contrast. The ultimate video quality is Full HD, and the recording speed is 60 FPS. There is electronic stabilization, but it functions only during recording at a speed of 30 FPS. The quality of pictures and videos of this phone is acceptable, no supernatural results, but nothing bad either. In general, the camera matches the cost of the smartphone itself.

Interface

There is an Android 8.1 shell with a proprietary EMUI 8.2 interface. According to AnTuTu tests of the seventh version, the gadget reaches approximately 138 thousand points. For such a price, this is a great value. In reality, the response of the functionality is pretty pretty. For example, most of the tasks are completed almost instantly.

The programs start really fast. In rare cases, the startup interval is slightly longer, in particular, if you open very "heavy" games. In this regard, the ninth Asphalt or PUBG is recommended to open at medium graphics settings. In other applications with less demanding conditions, it is possible to play without any limits.

The interface itself is far from the pinnacle of attractiveness, but this, as they say, is not for everybody. In any case, its pliability makes it possible to configure the phone, as the user wants, up to its transformation into "pure" Android. For example, you can install your favorite theme, Nova Launcher, Pixel-type icons and end up seeing a rather innovative gadget with an attractive shell.

Autonomy

 

Huawei has equipped this model with a powerful enough battery with a capacity of 4,000 mAh. This gives an excellent duration of work, since the filling is not budgetary, and the software is innovative. The power of the output adapter is 5 volts (2A).

Company representatives also talked about fast charging technology. The manufacturer did not open the curtain on the name of the latter, but it will already be logical to predict that it will be a branded Super Charge 2 or something from this category. Formal testing of the duration of the work was not carried out, but it is worthwhile to declare confidently - from 10 to 12 hours the smartphone will work at all its own power.

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages:
  • Large display with excellent resolution;
  • Highly trendy design;
  • 2 dual cameras;
  • Good performance indicators;
  • Powerful battery.
Disadvantages:
  • There is no USB type "C" socket;
  • No FM radio;
  • The case gets dirty quickly.

How much is?

The average price is 15,000 rubles.

If we talk about the chips of the novelty and the past Y9, then we can confidently say that the 710 Kirin is almost half as fast as the 659. This is proved by testing on AnTuTu with the results of 138 and 74 thousand points. The new model is equipped with the largest storage capacity when compared to other smartphones. There is a separate slot for microSD flash drives, which cannot be said about the twentieth Mate.

The new Y9 has the largest display, but the specs are very similar to the Mate 20.

From the camera side, the new product is in no way inferior to the Mate 20 Lite, here users have both a gorgeous resolution and excellent aperture.

The twentieth Mate is inferior to its own brothers only in terms of battery power, but not significantly. All 3 devices are based on Android 8.0 in combination with the Emotion shell.

Conclusion

In conclusion, it is worth noting that the 2019 Y9 is a productive and inexpensive phone that has 4 cameras at once. The gadget has got an innovative look without frames, a glass shell, powerful hardware and a capacitive battery. In the price segment, this device can be considered one of the leaders.
