Just a week after launching in India, the Huawei Y9 Prime (2019) is receiving a new update that brings EMUI 9.1.

EMUI 9.1 boasts features like GPU Turbo 3.0 and the new EROFS file system which allows apps to load faster. The EROFS file system replaces the F2FS file system and it brings a 20% increase in random read speed and even leaves you with more space on your device.

GPU Turbo 3.0 brings support for 25 of the most popular games. It also reduces the power consumption of the processor by 10%.

EMUI 9.1 also brings Huawei Phone Clone which allows you to easily copy your files from your old phone to your new Huawei phone in moments. There are also new wallpapers and app icons, so your phone should also loom different.

The update is rolling out in India already which is a bit surprising since the phone is just going on sale today (offline sales is August 10). So if you are one of those who already picked up this phone, you should get the update after initial setup or over the next couple of days.

The update should also begin to arrive on the phone in other markets like Nigeria. So if you are outside India, you may want to check for the update too.

The Huawei Y9 Prime (2019) is one of the few Huawei phones with a pop-up selfie camera. It has a 6.59-inch FHD+ display that covers nearly the entire front and is devoid of a notch or a punch hole. There is a Kirin 710F processor under the hood that is paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of expandable storage.

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.

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 Huawei P Smart Z is Huawei’s first smartphone with a pop-up selfie camera. It was seen on the official Huawei Spain and Huawei Italy websites last week but is yet to go on sale. However, it isn’t the only pop-up selfie camera phone from the Chinese phone maker. There is the Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 and it is almost the same phone as the P Smart Z but with an extra rear camera.

The Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 has been listed on Huawei’s official website, baring all its specs.

We said it shares nearly the same specs and even design as the Huawei P Smart Z. So you get a 6.59-inch Ultra FullView Display with a 2340 x 1080 resolution in front and a two-toned finish on the back. There is a Kirin 710F processor under the hood and it is paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. Unlike the P Smart Z, it also has a 128GB version and both variants have a MicroSD card slot for up to 512GB of additional storage

The pop-up selfie camera is a 16MP sensor, while the rear cameras, which are 16MP + 2MP dual camera sensors on the P Smart Z, add an 8MP ultra wide-angle lens to make a triple camera setup. There are lots of camera features including 3D Portrait retouching (for front and rear cameras) and AI scene recognition.

The Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 has a 4000mAh battery which charges via a USB Type-C port. There is a fingerprint scanner on the back but there is no NFC which the P Smart Z has. The phone runs EMUI 9.0 based on Android Pie and comes in Midnight Black, Emerald Green, and Sapphire Blue.

The post Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 official listing: A P Smart Z with an extra camera appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Huawei P Smart Z is Huawei’s first phone with a pop-up selfie camera but it won’t be the last. A new leak has revealed the Chinese giant’s upcoming Huawei Y9 Prime will also have a pop-up selfie camera…..and three rear cameras. The leak includes a poster taken at a store, as well as hands-on images of the phone. It also reveals its specs.

The front of the Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 shares a similar design to that of the P Smart Z. Save for the extra camera on the back of the former, both devices can pass for the same even though they have different names which actually isn’t unusual for certain Huawei devices.

According to the source of the hands-on photos, the Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 has nearly the same specs as the P Smart Z. The photos also show it has a similar two-tone finish on the back.

So you get a 6.59-inch display with an FHD+ resolution and a 91.006% screen-to-body ratio. There is a Kirin 710F under the hood paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The selfie camera is a 16MP f/2.2 sensor while the triple rear cameras include a 16MP f/1.8 sensor, an 8MP f/2.4 sensor with an ultra-wide angle lens, and a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor. The cameras are arranged vertically on the left with two sensors sharing the same housing while the third is housed separately.

There is also a 4,000mAh battery that charges via USB Type-C and a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. The rumored price is said to be under $300 which is cheaper than the retail price of the P Smart Z (€279/~$313). We don’t know how that will work out for Huawei unless it doesn’t plan to sell the Y9 Prime 2019 in the same markets it will sell the P Smart Z.
