Design:-

The Y9 looks sleek and stylish with huge 5.9-inch screen wrapped around an aluminum alloy body with an 18:9 aspect ratio.it supports the resolution of 1080*2160 pixels with IPS capacitive touchscreen. Design wise this device is very good in shape and it has two front camera lens at its top side whereas the back also has dual camera option. The down side has an audio jack, micro USB 2.0 and speakers while the front side has only one mic on it and the fingerprint sensor is just marked below the back camera
Huawei Y9 has 480 dpi for the clarity of icons and texts and it is providing us fantastic display in the category of color slots, sharpness, brightness, and contrast. It also provides 1080*2160 pixels resolution which are the best for normal usage. The Huawei Y9 supports graphics card of Mali-T830 MP2 which basically use the 3D games and multitouch has scored full 10 points in it.

Camera of Y9:-

Huawei Y9 has dual 16MP + 2MP back camera lens and 16MP and 13MP dual lens for its front camera. The back camera can record videos in full 1080 pixels while the front one can also record in full 1080 pixels. Let’s look at both camera lens in detail. Smart/Manual to adjust. The light will be much softer and natural. Any time you can take a Selfie and night cannot cover your beauty anymore. Dual camera is standard. Say goodbye to the single camera.

-The 16MP+2MP Rear camera will give artistic bokeh photo & refocus
– New generation beauty mode can give you natural skin and keep more detail
.
The dual back camera lens sounds super good. It is packed with f/2.2, 24mm, face detection autofocus and LED flashlight. The main features are geo-tagging, touch focus, face/smile detection, HDR, panorama and it can record video in 1080p@30fps with HDR. Some main modes are also available in it such as AR effect, creative effect, and Time shift burst. Professional mode is also accessible which gives you control over focus, shutter speed, ISO, exposure compensation and white balance. We have taken some images from back camera of Huawei Y9. The results are very satisfactory and saturation is very well used. Intake of pictures and brightness have a very good response. Noise is very little found in images unless we don’t zoom in the pictures. HUAWEI Y9 2018 packs a studio-level high CRI (color rendering index) smart Selfie toning flash which produces flattering soft light in low-light or even pitches black conditions. Huawei has provided us a super-selfie camera phone.

Software and UI:-

The Huawei Y9 2018 comes with Android Oreo 8.0 coupled with EMUI 8.0. I feel like the UI on Huawei devices is very simple and same is the case with this one. There are customizable notification icons when you swipe downwards, you can change sliding transitions. You can get to the smart care feature by Huawei by swiping to the left, which well was not useful to me.

Performance of Huawei Y9:-

Huawei Y9 has 2.2GHz octa-core processor with the chipset of HiSilicon Kirin 659. It would be much better if they use Qualcomm chipset, it is also running smoothly with this chipset. We have tested it in every category and it has worked brilliantly. The device is packed with 4000 mAh Li-Po fixed battery and it gives us almost 13-15 consecutive hours of usage. It has 1A charger with it that will completely charge the device for almost 2 hours.

At last, the Huawei Y9 is an affordable version of the Nova 2i which is pretty much similar and a bit expensive, but Y9 has dual camera and more storage option which make it different phone. Including the things I have liked on this device are design, battery timing and display.
If you are a heavy gamer then Galaxy J7 Duo would be the best option for you. And if the storage is your concern then there is MI A1 with 64GB storage and pure android.
So, if you ask me if getting this phone is a good decision, I would say that if storage and gaming performance is not a concern for you then this device will be on your expectation
