Performance

Operating System: Android 9.0 (Pie)

CPU: Quad-core 2.0 GHz (Helio A22)

RAM: 2GB

Internal Memory: 32GB

Micro SD: Yes, up to 512GB

The performance profile of the Y6 Prime 2019 is one of the key reasons why Huawei wants you to buy the phone. A quad-core 2.0 GHz chipset powers the phone. Couple this with some 3GB of RAM. This is often the right combination for budget smartphones.

In addition to this, the Y6 Prime 2019 runs Android 9.0 Pie of the box. This is great since some recently launched budget smartphones e.g Samsung Galaxy M10 come with Android 8.1 Oreo. It’s therefore commendable that Huawei decided to ship the Y6 Prime 2019 with Android Pie.

Camera

Secondary Camera: 8 MP

LED Flash: Yes

The Y6 Prime 2019 offers a 13MP rear camera for general photography and an 8MP camera for selfies.

Battery and Extras

Battery Capacity: Li-Ion 3020 mAh

A Li-Ion 3020 mAh battery powers the Y6 Prime 2019. This is a pain point and a potential deal breaker. The battery capacity is quite small and you might struggle to squeeze out a day from a single charge even while on moderate usage.

The Huawei Y6 Prime 2019 has a suggested retail price of Ksh. 16,999.
