The Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 was announced first in late January in Sri Lanka. It was later unveiled in the Philippines in February. Huawei has now announced its sibling – the Huawei Y6 2019 which shares a lot of features with the Pro variant and even has a key feature the Y6 Pro is missing.

The Huawei Y6  2019 keeps the 6.09-inch 1560 x 720 Dewdrop display of the Y6 Pro and also the 12nm Helio A22 processor. However, it has just 2GB of RAM. Built-in storage is still 32GB and you can expand it via a MicroSD card slot (512GB Max.).

Within the notch is an 8MP camera for selfies. There is Selfie Toning Flash 2.0 which works with the screen’s own light for taking bright and natural portrait images in lowlight environments.

The rear camera is a 13MP sensor with an f/1.8 aperture that allows in up to 50% more light for better lowlight images. Unlike the Y6 Pro 2019, the Y6 has a fingerprint scanner (we honestly don’t know what Huawei is thinking). It also has Face Unlock.

The Huawei Y6 2019 packs a 3020mAh battery that charges via a MicroUSB port. It also runs EMUI 9.0 out of the box based on Android 9 Pie.  There is Huawei SuperSound on board which lets it release an additional 6 decibels of sound with stronger bass. It has a built-in FM radio that works without earbuds, support for Histen 5.0 and also has a party mode.

There is no info on pricing and availability at the moment.
