Huawei Y5 (2019) - User Reviews

  • Ok so... 2014 flagship

  • When people post texts on their whatsapp status, I'm unable to read the full text. It always cuts a sentence or two out. Can someone help me fix this?

  • Yes it does mate, I bought mine from big W for $160

  • Update software is like taking 3 hours.

  • Where did you buy it for rm349?

  • Yes

  • Does the huawei y5 2019 has double tap to wake option in it;-could someone please tell me

  • I failed to do so as well but I installed an app from play store.... Problem sorted

  • Please who can help me on how to use the android split screen feature on this phone, i can't figure it out.

  • This phone has a front flash. Nice design and hidden flash. Gsmarena please update spec sheet i you want to hehe..

  • I love this phone, the size and weight are perfect. I recommend going into developers options and turning on Force GPU Rendering, it reduces lag in basic usage.

  • Awesome phone. I bought it a week ago. It's fantastic.

  • finally it have update EMUI 9.1

  • 7A

  • Which one is better: Huawei Y5 2019 or Redmi 7A ?

  • I have both Y5 2018 and Y5 2019. If you ever try or use Y5 2018, then you may know how good is Y5 2019. Y5 2018 is totally a failure product, super lagging, weak battery, its even worse than Samsung galaxy prime duo which only have 1.5gb ram, while Y5 2018 released in 2018 and with 2gb ram. Back to Y5 2019, good battery, fullview display good for 1 handed. I just received android 9.1 today. Gestures are buttery smooth. Volume is above average. Support 2sims (both 4g lte) + 1 microSD card. It's only MYR349.00 in Malaysia. Its a gem.

  • i got this phone its good but i dont know i feel like power button in not like the volume its not good for click i dont know if this about only my phone or all of y5 2019, so i think to keep it or buy oppo 1ak??

  • can it insert 2 simcards ?

  • Great midrange phone!

  • How can i restrict my data in huawei y5 2019

  • Great phone for basic user...

  • waiting for update phone after one monthnof use is perfect camera life batteryy all spec are fantastic for me as simple user not gamer

  • Yeah, I have it and for me, the absolute biggest issue is the sound quality, which is pretty bad when put in your earphones. There's this horrible white noise thing going on in the background and it clearly distinctive and very disruptive. Also the resolution and camera quality is far from amazing despite its specifications. I am unfortunately super disappointed in this phone and now have to continue looking for one that suits my needs on a student budget.

  • 7m

  • Good phone listen to me when I tell you this, only thing is no finger print sensor but face recognition is better imo.People who don't have the phone don't have a right to talk trash here period.

  • No, just 9.0.1, I'm still waiting for the next update.

  • for this phone is it planned to get EMUI 9.1?

  • Hi everyone! Pls ur opinion regarding cameras performance (rear and front) / overall phone speed (youtube - facebook) / battery consumption. Thanks!

  • With Huawei, believe anything possible.

  • It has been a very nice experience so far. You get exactly what you pay for and it is great!

  • It is nice phone?

  • Still going strong like jonh walker,very fast

  • A good phone but i stills very low end device there's a lot of more better devices like realme c1,2 and redmi 7 ,realme 3

  • Can't believe it's returning on a budget phone, faux leather FTW

  • EMUI is as fast as vanilla, maybe even faster. But A22 i going to make some problems for sure.

  • good screen size, easy to hand

  • Because they don't want a phone, not a tablet? Personally I'm choosing a phone a right now, and my literally #1 most-needed feature is being able to use the phone with one hand. I'm so tired of all the phablet trash out there. Can't wait for more compact-ish devices. Era of 6+" phabloits is coming to an end.

  • Screen Size A Bit Small...

  • People still buy this??? i mean, why would they? Why not go for the Realme 3 or Redmi Note 7?

  • Emui and the mediatek processor

  • I like the Faux leather, is it global release how much??? ..........why would it be slow it has 2 gig ram ^^

  • so bad small screen , even its quad core no good camera seem like y5 2019 but with drop notch mybe we wait y5 2020 hope so it will come with 6.21 screen octacore and type-c usb hh

  • This is gonna be slow
