Huawei just launched a new entry-level phone in the Philippines: the new Huawei Y6 Pro (2019). To be honest, it is not really new, it already debuted in Sri Lanka about two weeks ago with a leather back. But the variant that just hitten the Philippines has no leather back and comes with a very affordable price. That is why we decided to compare with other recent entry-levels that catalyzed a lot of attention in the last period: the new and long-awaited Moto G7 Play by Motorola and the Realme C1 (2019) from the first Oppo’s sub-brand. Who will win? Go ahead with this specs comparison to discover it.

Huawei Y6 Pro (2019) vs Motorola Moto G7 Play vs Oppo Realme C1 (2019)

Design

Nowadays, even entry-level handsets such as these ones come with a pretty elegant and attractive design. Among these handsets, the one that comes with a better look, in my opinion, is the Huawei Y6 Pro (2019). I like it because of its very small dewdrop notch on the upper side of the display, unlike its rivals that come with big and silly notches. While Huawei Y6 Pro (2019) dominates the entry-level scene with its cool design, Moto G7 Play shines for its build quality. Indeed, it is splash resistant and it also comes with a display protected by Corning’s Gorilla Glass 3 (only in selected markets, so make sure to check the specs sheet when the phone will hit your zone). Also note that the Moto G7 Play is the only to rock a fingerprint reader, it is placed under the rear camera. Oppo Realme C1 2019 is not a big deal when it comes to aesthetics.

Display

The display is the weak point of low-end handsets. These devices offer just an HD+ resolution, so they are not the best in terms of definition. But they have sufficient displays with decent detail and the IPS technology. I would choose my favorite one basing on the size of the display and the notch. If you want a compact device that is easy to use with one hand, go for the Moto G7 Play, if you want the biggest and most comfortable screen, then choose Realme C1 2019 and if you want the smallest notch, go for the Huawei Y6 Pro 2019.

Specs & Software

Here we have the most important differences. Moto G7 Play comes with the midrange-class Snapdragon 632 chipset that is an upgrade of Snapdragon 625 and 626 (not better than Snapdragon 630, though), while Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 and Realme C1 2019 have entry-level chipsets. Despite Moto G7 Play comes with less RAM (just 2 GB against 3 GB on the most expensive variants of Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 and Realme C1 2019), I would choose the Moto G7 Play for its faster SoC.

Camera

The camera department that wins this comparison is the one present on the Moto G7 Play, at least on the paper. It has a decent focal aperture for an entry-level handset, and it is the only that can record videos with 4K resolution. Further, it comes with a pretty nice front camera equipped with a front-facing LED flash. The second place goes to the Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 for its brighter aperture, even though Realme C1 is the only rear dual camera phone boasting an additional depth sensor. We chose the Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 as the second camera phone of this comparison because of its good detail with several light conditions and its better front camera.

Battery

Realme C1 (2019) is equipped with a mammoth battery: 4230 mAh is an infinite capacity for an entry-level handset. Indeed, it is one of the battery champions of 2019. Its opponent can nowhere compete with the Realme C1 2019, just like most of the other entry-level devices.

Price

Huawei Y6 Pro (2019), Moto G7 Play and Realme C1 2019 cost about €120/$135, €150/$170 and €100/$110, respectively. Moto G7 Play wins this comparison because of its excellent build quality, good cameras, fingerprint reader and very nice chipset. But Realme C1 2019 with its huge battery offers the ghivalue for money.

The new variant of Realme’s entry-level smartphone now comes with increased internal storage capacity. It is being touted by the company as ‘Entertainment Ka Boss’. The smartphone went on sale for the first time a couple of days back and was again available for purchase in India last Friday and yesterday.

Now, the company has announced that the Realme C1 2019 will be available for purchase in India through open sale. The phone is currently being sold through online marketplace Flipkart and the company’s own online store.

Realme C1 2019 comes in two variants — 2GB RAM with 32GB internal storage and 3GB RAM with 32GB internal storage. As for the pricing, the 2GB RAM variant is priced at Rs. 7,499 (approximately $105), the 3GB RAM model is priced at Rs. 8,499 (approximately $119).

Except for the internal storage, most of the phone’s specifications remains the same as the standard model. It features a 6.2-inch IPS LCD notched display that carries support for HD+ resolution of 1520 x 720 pixels and offers 19:9 aspect ratio.

Under the hood, the device is powered by the modest Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 chipset. The 2019 edition models come with either 2GB/3GB RAM and pack 32GB of internal storage. The phone is also equipped with a dedicated microSD card slot for expanding the storage capacity.

For the photography, the horizontally arranged dual rear camera on the backside of the Realme C1 features a 13-megapixel primary sensor and a 2-megapixel secondary sensor. The notch of the smartphone houses a 5-megapixel AI driven selfie camera that also doubles up for AI facial recognition.

Samsung Galaxy M10, alongside the Galaxy M20, is the first device from the brand new Galaxy M series that includes entry-level and midrange smartphones from the Koran giant. Its specs and its price tag are a clear sign that the company is trying to gain some ground on Chinese manufacturers which are becoming a bigger menace every day. Does the Galaxy M10 look as interesting as the latest entry-level devices from Chinese manufacturers? We will let you figure it out in this specs comparison with Honor Play 8A and Realme C1 2019.

Samsung Galaxy M10 vs Huawei Honor Play 8A vs Oppo Realme C1 (2019)

Design

Smartphones manufacturers learned to release even entry-level phones with attractive aesthetics. In this trio, the one I would pick is the Samsung Galaxy S10 because of its higher screen-to-body ratio thanks to its Infinity-V Display featuring narrow bezels and a small V-shaped notch. It has even a thinner body than its rivals. Realme C1 2019 has a bigger notch and thicker bezels, but it has the best build quality thanks to Gorilla Glass 3 by Corning protecting the display from drop and scratches. Honor Play 8A has a dewdrop notch, but its chin is thicker and it does not help it to achieve a high screen-to-body ratio.

Display

The display is one of the components for which Samsung decided to cut costs in order to offer a very affordable phone to the public. It is not even an IPS display, but it is a lower-end TFT panel. It remains sufficient thanks to its HD+ resolution, but Realme C1 2019 and Honor Play 8A are more satisfying when it comes to display quality. Realme C1 2019 has a bigger and more resistant display, but it does not differ so much in terms of viewing quality. So you can choose either the Realme C1 2019 or the Honor Play 8A if you want the best display, just let your tastes decide.

Specs & Software

These three handsets are entry-level phones but they are not the most low-end ones. Their hardware sides allow using every app with sufficient performances, as long as you do not opt for high-level gaming and multi-tasking. The best is the Honor Play 8A that comes with a midrange-class Helio P35 chipset by MediaTek. It can be compared to the Snapdragon 632 by Qualcomm and it reaches high clock frequencies up to 2.3 GHz. It even comes with up to 64 GB of internal storage that are not present on the other two devices. The second place goes to the Realme C1 as I define the Snapdragon 450 a better chipset than the Exynos 7870 by Samsung.

Camera

Samsung devices are usually superior to most of their concurrence when it comes to cameras. And it is exactly the same as the Samsung Galaxy M10. It comes with a dual setup on the back boasting a good focal aperture and great performances in most of scenarios (for an entry-level phone, obviously). Honor Play 8A comes right after with its bright aperture and a better selfie camera, even though it has just a single sensor on its rear side.

Battery

Finally, a thing in which Realme C1 2019 is undoubtedly superior: the battery life. Thanks to the huge 4230 mAh unit, it can achieve a way longer battery life than Samsung Galaxy M10 and Honor Play 8A, reaching two days of intensive usage. The second place goes to Samsung Galaxy M10 and its 3400 mAh battery, but Honor Play 8A is still more than sufficient with its 3000 mAh battery, given the efficient components.

Price

Samsung Galaxy M10 and Honor Play 8A debuted in the Asian market with a price tag of about €100/$114, while Realme C1 2019 is available to purchase in India for 7500 INR that is equivalent to about €92/$105 at the actual change. In my opinion, finally Samsung is starting to become competitive even in the low-end sector, and the new M series may help it gain some ground on Chinese manufacturers in this niche. But the Galaxy M10 does not win this comparison unless the final user is a camera addicted. I think it is basically a draw, with Samsung Galaxy M10 offering better camera performances, Honor Play 8A with a better hardware and Realme C1 2019 with a longer battery life. Which one do you prefer?
