Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 has as its major highlight a pop-up selfie camera and a triple rear camera setup. The device equally packs an expansive 6.59-inch LCD display with tiny bezels on all sides due to the absence of a stationary front camera. The pop-up camera design also ensures the device doesn’t have the notch which most of us hate so much.

At the rear, you’ll find a triple camera setup aligned vertically at the top left corner. Two of the sensors are housed in one module while the third sensor sits on its own module. The camera is teased to have AI feature, obviously for better performance.  The device also packs a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. The device will be powered by a Kirin 710 chipset paired with 4 GB RAM with 128GB of storage.

In addition, you get a 4000mAh battery with USB-C port for faster charging. The phone will be available in Emerald Green and Sapphire Blue colours. We’ll have to wait until the release date to find out the price in India. Don’t expect it to be under $200, though.
