The Design and DisplayThe Huawei Y6 Prime 2019, in my opinion, features an attractive design. This design may not be the flashiest of the bunch, but comparing this smartphone to other smartphones in the same price range, the beauty of the phone shines.
The Huawei Y6 Prime 2019 bears the same design we have on some of the recently released smartphones in the “Y” series. The Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 and Huawei Y7 Prime (2019) all bear the same design.
The Huawei Y6 Prime 2019 has plastic on the rear and on the sides and glass upfront. It comes in Aurora Blue, Midnight Black, Coral Red, and Brown (faux leather). The Sapphire blue variant of the Huawei Y6 Prime has a gradient design, while the Amber brown variant has a faux (artificial) leather on the rear.
The rear of the smartphone is home to a single camera, a camera flash, a fingerprint sensor, and the Huawei branding below, which indicates is a Huawei smartphone.
Upfront on the smartphone, you have a very familiar setup, a setup we have seen in a lot of Android phones released in 2019. It has a dewdrop notch display and a bottom chin.
On the Huawei Y6 Prime 2019, we have a 6.09 inch IPS LCD display, with a screen resolution of 720 x 1560 pixels and a screen density of 282ppi. It also has a 79.2% screen to body ratio.
The CamerasWhen it comes to camera hardware, the Huawei Y6 Prime 2019 is certainly not at its best. Turns out there are a lot of competitors that offer more for the price. Its 2019 and Huawei chose to stick to already outdated camera hardware.
Smartphones like the Infinix Hot 8 have an almost similar price tag with the Huawei Y6 Prime 2019 and even the lower priced Infinix Hot 8 Lite, features better camera hardware on paper of course.
Are the cameras really that bad? The camera specs of the Huawei Y6 Prime 2019 may not look impressive on paper, but we all know there is more to a camera than mere specs and pixels.
Under good conditions, the images produced on this device will turn out impressive.
A lot of mobile phone cameras will certainly turn out good photos under the right conditions, but just because something works doesn’t mean it can’t be better.
Infinix smartphones have been a good example of the kind of power smartphones under this budget should be equipped with.
It’s 2019 and the Huawei Y6 Prime 2019 still features a single rear camera. This means taking super wide-angle photos or awesome telephoto shots is impossible on this smartphone.
You get a single 13MP rear camera. This camera has an aperture of f/1.8. It lets you shoot photos using in HDR and panorama. You also get to shoot 1080p videos at 30fps.
For selfies, the Huawei Y6 prime 2019 is equipped with an 8MP front-facing camera with an aperture of f/2.0 and an LED flash. This camera lets you shoot 1080p videos with frame rates topped at 30fps.

It feature an Octa-Core MediaTek MT6761 Helio A22 processor clocked at 2.0GHz. This process is a 12-nanometer processor.
The Huawei Y6 prime 2019 also features 2GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, with support for Micro-SD storage expansion up to 512GB. The smartphone is also home to the PowerVR GE8320 GPU.
The Huawei Y6 Prime 2019 packs a non-removable 3020 mAh battery. Please, not this device doesn’t support a fast charge of any sort.
