  • Hello my phone got a restart problem some time ago then i went to a warranty and after a while they looked at my phone as if they reset the factory and saw some of the features of the phone were disabled and not working such as photo The lock screen hub didn't change randomly and the theme of the phone was changed and not the previous theme. Then I saw in the update section of the phone was an update of 2.69 gb which was written in the change log "restore your system to lastest official version" May the features come back if I get this update?

  • Using huawei from april but what i have observed it is Excellent phone in the price range, and yeah battery is bit compromised as it were in the beginning, but in camera front or rare both are awesome, i am using whole day with 100 to midnight with still 30 to 35 percent remaining, but due to. ItÂ’s big screen create hurdles in typing a message but overall it's amazing phone

  • Have been using this phone since March.. With heavy bad usage and still have no effect on it battery.. Maybe u bought the wrong 1.. PUBG use network to run.. Don't expect pure game play with no hang.. Unless u are using real 4g/5g server in your area. This phome use up to 30min before dropping from 100% to 99% with usage..i swear. Have checked soo many times.. If u are a good photographer.. This phone camera level up with iPhone 7 series camera.. Use it AI camera and try to use Google photos to edit it click on "auto edit" Do not drain it battery while you have ya alarm on.. It will keep forcing it self to on, just to ring out the alarm. It speaker sounds solid like stereo.. But not stereo. Huawei is now different from what we think they are before.. "Now becoming the boss"

  • Low ram power? It's got a 3gb ram . How long have you been using this phone

  • Gallery app is excruciating Battery life drains after two to three months of heavy use Youtube video quality limited to 720p Apps in the background get closes fast due to low Ram power Other than these the phone is great

  • It has 18months guaranty, why don't you go to huawei service center?!

  • It has 3 slots , 2 for sim cards & 1 for Memory card

  • Hello sir we got the same situation we just bought this in august i got the same issue i drained the batter and i got the boot loop :( i hope they see this issue

  • My father bought me this phone on April 2019 and it was wonderful. It reached a point in August when I was taking pictures of my cousins and I. It kept on rebooting and rebooting. It came to a point that it stopped working and it turned off. It kept looping on and off and coming back on and off consecutively and never came back on.

  • my father bought this in august so far so good im using it for my studies i accidentally drain the battery when im in the school. i tried to charge as soon i got home in its charger but its just keep boot looping i cant even boot to recovery options :( my father bought this for my studies.

  • Please confirm this set has dedicated memory slot or uses sim2 for memory card???

  • No

  • I bought this phone 64 GB and 3GB RAM

  • Anybody know will it get great EMUI 10 or not ?

  • It has 2A charger in the box, fully charged this great 4000 mAh battery in 2 hours.

  • Would've bought this phone if not for the uncertainty going on with them and Google. But from what I've read so far, it's a lovely phone

  • Just to say that it is not fast charging. Please update the specifications.

  • not yet oh still waiting any hope

  • there is not newer android version yet

  • In my country, A30 is 25$ more expensive than y7 prime 2019, but is better in a lot of aspects, so I picked A30. P.S: I'm not a fanboy of anyone, I pick the phone that interests me the most

  • anybody have update y7 prime 2019 in 9 pie?

  • You're a Samsung fanboy, aren't you? Realme 3 Pro, Nokia 7 Plus, Nokia 8, Motorola Moto Z2 Force absolutely crush A30. All of them cost less than A30 where I live. I really hope you didn't accidentally purchased A30. Motorola Moto Z2 Force is priced same as A20 in my country, so there you go. Realme 3 Pro is priced 40% less than A50 as well. The only thing A50 has over it is ultra wide camera. Meanwhile Realme 3 Pro offers much better camera quality as well as video recording and gaming performance than A50. I won't mention the better charging time and other things as I think I've made my point ;)

  • Prices vary from country to country. In my country, A20 costs about 40% more than Huawei Y7 Prime 2019. Also, A20 isn't that better. The only thing it is better in is that it charges faster and can take ultra wide pictures. Y7 Prime 2019 doesn't have ultra wide camera but it captures more details due to f/1.8 vs f/1.9. Its selfie camera also offers 1080p video recording while A20 selfie camera isn't capable of recording videos at all according to the link you shared. Things like android version, ips lcd/super amoled are small factors and don't matter much. You're better off buying Realme 3 in this price anyway.

  • single speaker

  • Please anyone confirm dual speaker or single speaker???

  • you should ask your local Huawei support

  • does he has volte network. it compability to indian band

  • Gsmarena Price is wrong, Y9 2019 has the same price as A20 not Y7 prime 2019, see stores at your country to be sure. Y9 19 is more powerful than A20 in same price

  • Really? See this: So A20 is better and according to gsmarena it has the same price and low SAR which is good. But it is your choice I can't force you :)

  • A20 is more expensive Also with worst quality & features & SAR

  • Even A20 is better.

  • A50 is better and cheaper than p30 lite.

  • A30 is much more expensive & we can buy P30 lite instead of that , Y7 2019 is a best phone at its range

  • It's good I av started using it fr pass one month nd never found any problem with it

  • Doew y7 prime has corning gorilla glass?

  • OneUI is not laggy at all, give it a try

  • A30 is better in every aspect

  • Yup using it from last 6 months it is getting updates from Playstore regularly

  • US already lifted the ban on Huawei Devices. So to answer your question, yes. You can get your apps upgraded.

  • With US ban on Huawei fones, can the Apps be updated via play store?

  • It's a great portable deviiiice... U can use ir for 48hrs.. Bcz of its veeery powerful battery.. Which takes only two hours for being charged from 0% to 100%. All the love

  • When it will get update to emui 9?

  • 2hr...thats from absolutely 0% to 100%...tested and confirmed

  • can anyone tell me if is it good or bad please? because i want to buy it and i dont know if its good or bad.

  • It cameras are okay.. Try to use camera FV-5

  • U are wrong.. Try to free ya phone ram... U don't run graphics games with other apps in ressents, it will surely slows down your phone networks, PUBG works with network

  • How long does it takes to charge the battery from zero to 100%?

  • best smartphone,it has apreture mode in rear cam, it's awesome❤️❤&­#65039; i love Huawei

  • It has a dedicated slot, so you can use two sim cards and an SD card at the same time. The specification here is incorrect.

  • lag games like pubg, fruit ninja

  • yeah right, in ur world is better:) now that i understand.

  • Rear camera not good. But selfie camera is very good but it doesn't have patriot.

  • Dear friend This phone designed exactly for all your point. Ihave honor 8x also. In Touch sensitivity, battery charging and endurance of it, internet browsing and regularly use is best. Other features is like some midrange or low range phone. If ti has tpls screen is really good pbone and have 4g ram.

  • Considering the US ban on huawei, i would suggest not to buy any huawei phone at the moment.

  • Guys.... Wanna port pixel camera on my huawei y7 prime 2019... Any help???

  • Samsung with their laggy experience, wouldn't even consider it. Huawei all the way

  • lmao yeah right!

  • hey, is it possible to use dual sim card with micro sd memory in a moment in this cellphone? my friend have y7 prime 2019 and told me he use second sim with memory in a same time. but on paper memory card slot uses shared sim slot. I'm so sorry for my English because I'm not a native speaker.

  • Huawei y7 prime 2019 is best

  • Huawei y7 prime 2019 comparing to Samsung M20 Huawei y7 prime 2019 is best.

  • Huawei y7 prime 2019

  • Huawei y7 prime 2019 / S7 edge / Samsung a30 Which 1 is better....?

  • Hi This phone note support 1 TB memory and only 512 GB memory has supported by this phone see this link:

  • am... Besides iphone Huawei have awesome cameras it just depends on what phone u buy hahaha

  • low to mid range Huawei phones are not strong in the camera department, you might have to look into getting a pixel camera apk port to possibly get better images

  • Average. It runs average it not slow but not fast its smooth but laggy at times

  • Why don't you get this phone. It does have a dedicated SD slot, and not hybrid as stated on the site. And the battery life is just awesome.

  • Their is no option

  • This phone

  • How is the SNAPCHAT quality? Is it Laggy?

  • a20 bro, compare them together.

  • Maybe the phone you get is fake

  • Huawei Y7 prime 2019 Or. Samsung Galaxy A20 . Which one is better please ?

  • Very nice phone. I have bought 10 of them in just 15K from Godra Market in Karachi but all of them in full warranty so suggesting everyone to go for it (Y)

  • Wifi is not working wat should i do

  • Hi guys. I need a suggestion... I'm not a gamer and I need a Dual SIM phone with a dedicated Micro SD slot with price of about 200 EUR... The feature I'd like to have in the phone: 1- Dual SIM + dedicated Micro SD slot 2- Good Battery 3- Stable and fast for daily usage(Calling - Browsing - Messaging) Thanks in advance... :)

  • Will Android 9 come out for y7 prime 2019?

  • Have been using expensive phones like LG which are bad phones(LG should concentrate making fridges not phones), bt this Huawei its one of best phone with affordable price, battery last 2days on heavy user

  • Honor 8c will be more better y7 gets heat up realy fast

  • Well I bought the Huawei y7 prime on 19th March and have been using it till now, so over a month now. I have noticed a few problems: 1. I could not perform a multiple deletion of some contacts. I had to do the deletion 1 by 1 and it takes time. 2. The portrait (aperture is used for huawei) mode is not the best. I am not happy with the edges. The edges are not really sharp enough. It gets worse as the distance increases. But on the positive side: 1. With very good lighting, the camera is really good, including selfies. 2. I like how to the speakers are not behind but at the bottom of the phone. I can play really loud music with my phone lying down and i wont have to worry about the sound being blocked or me damaging my speakers. 3. I like the multitasking feature. I am able to watch a movie and use another app like facebook at the same time. The screen can be split for that. 4. And battery lasts really really long.

  • Has anyone noticed any cons about this phone?

  • Does anyone know if this phone automatically kills background apps (the ones you don't close)?

  • So many good reviews about this phone, so I'm really thinking of getting it. How good is the camera quality, does it lag when playing heavy games like pes 2019? And If you've been using this phone for a month have you noticed any problem so far?

  • Can you tell me what's the difference between Y7 and Y7 Prime ?

  • I'm a big fan of photography so I'm asking if this phone's camera quality is good??? Please I want honest opinions

  • Yes

  • Haaaaa, you are making me smile there. I just baught the phone just now now and Im so excited with Technical info about the battery, it is super indeed. Thanks for outlining the features.

  • u can hide ur ntch

  • How can i play games in y7 2019 with notch display

  • Please help me decide what to buy. Huawei Y7 Prime 2019 or Honor 8C?

  • Yes

  • Please is there portrait mode in the camera?

  • I guess that should be factory error, because it's strange hearing that...... You can try factory reset.

  • It has actually. It's called aperture in the phone. It's the first mode on the left side. Only works on main (back) camera and it works great for its price.

  • I buyed huawei y7 prime 2019.... But there is no potrait mode... And i cant take potrait photos.. How to take potrait photos in this phone.?

  • Yes

  • according to the specification is much better. here several differences in priority on honor 8x LTE Cat12 vs LTE Cat6 Android 9.0 pie vs 8.1 Oreo EMUI 9.0 vs EMUI 8.2 4GB ram vs 3GB ram +GPU turbo for more games performance for honor8x srorage 64\128GB vs 32 GB 6.5'' display + gorilla glass protected +COF vs non of these 6.2'' display + gyroscope vs no better camera for honor8x better wi-fi connections USB on the go + NFC + VoLTE . go for Honor 8x

  • No doubt honor 8x

  • I'm thinking to buy a new smartphone but I'm very confused to buy whether a Honor 8x or Huawei Y7 Prime..so which one is a better phone and have good perfomance??

  • Yes it has flash light

  • Mr Emperor, does the front camera has flash light?

  • Does the front camera has flash light?

  • Does the front camera has a flash light?

  • I just bought the Huawei Y7 Prime 2019, and I must tell you this phone is cool, The normal temperature was 31° and after playing pubg 20mis, Asphalt 9 20mis and PES 2019 for 20mis the temperature went to 38° which is normal. No lag in any of the games... I must tell you in gaming performance this phone beat my Samsung S7 edge even in speed and also after an hour of gaming I was left with 80% of battery. Huawei is taking over.

  • Yes

  • you are right,my mistake, thinking that the light sensor is in the process

  • Is the phone OTG Enabled?

  • Its not a proximity sensor it is controlled by light sensor

  • proximity sensor never go to maximum brightnes so thurn off auto brightnes and drag it to max manualy.

  • Pleas is the phoned equipped with FACE RECOGNITION?

  • Iam this smartphone from last two months, it's battery life is best and it's performance is also wonderful, Iam enjoying it. 👍❤️

  • I am facing a problem with the proximity sensor in direct sunlight proximity sensor cannot on the screen it blinks in room conditions it works perfectly. Any one else face this issue

  • I am faing proximity sensor in direct sunlight. Screen blinks on and off and in room it works perfectly any body else faces this issue

  • Yes

  • I think it is about the Android 9.0 (Pie) itself...

  • It has Issue ob Mobile legends

  • What is your screen-on time for a single full charge?

  • I love it so much perfect battery camera and space, I would reccomend you buy it.

  • I bought this Phone from Philistin road (jeddah ksa) for my wife at sar 600 on February 2019.Good phone for the Price. I think Front camera is better than back camera.

  • I bought it yesterday and i nust say the battery is amazing. I went a whole day with 70 percent left. Tgats all i care about in a smartphone

  • Camera quality is quite impressive in this price range.

  • Thanks for posting about this phone. I will like to know more about the picture (image) quality of the camera.

  • I bought this phone yesterday. Supports Gyro, Fast Charging, USB OTG and Three slots 1 memory 2 for bank Sims. Very good looking and awesome battery backup. From backside same look as y9 2019. Mine model is Dubai LX1.

  • Support otg?

  • Does this phone support fast charging or not !! Be cause in other sites said it doesn't ??

  • Huawei have being making this mistake for lunching news phones without the latest android 9.0. that is why xiaomi is winning in the midrange smartphones market

  • Why is it hard for huawei to lunch a new phone with the latest android 9.0?

  • The 8c does have a better chipset/processor but if ur not a gamer then this phone is better specially in terms of camera but if updates are your concern then go with the 8c cuz honor has a better history of updates then huawei

  • which is better this or the honor 8c? camera, build quality and daily performance(just social media browsing and some routine use, not a gamer) are my main concerns

  • How is the camera quality? How is compared to the p20 lite ? sd450 vs kirin 659

  • Can it transfer file from internal to SD card?

  • Pls I want to buy this phone, but before then, I want to know the camera/image quality of this phone, and general performance. Thanks.

  • I ve just bought it. Liked it so far. Go for it.

  • It has 3 slots actually. 2 for Sim Cards n one for Memory

  • y7 prime have finger print sensor,y7 pro dont have fp,anything else is the same.

  • Y7 Pro and Y7 Prime are exactly the same?

  • I hope that GSMarena would make a review for this phone

  • Prices are market dependent, you have to precise the other devices this phone is up against at the same price range, that way people can give you a "legitimate" opinion, but in general it's a good device for the low midrange segment, only issue is that gaming isn't as good as in other devices that use the same chip set, but that can be fixed with a software update.

  • It has 2 slots for sim and another slot for sd card.

  • Yes

  • 2 Sim slots plus 1 slot for card

  • Is it full active for dull sim?

  • How many sim Slots in Y7 prime 2019..? According to my idea, it has only 2 slots. one for sim and one for sim or memory card... Please clarify.

  • Should I buy this phone?

  • No

  • was this already released in the philippines ? anyone ? and how much ?

  • In Oman it is 160 euro. Is it ok? Shall I buy?

  • High pricing . it should be less than 150 euro

  • Software will be upgraded to pie 9 or not

  • Only difference between Prime and Pro is the fingerprint reader

  • samsung m20 not smart its bigg fat set .. huawei y7 20019 i slim set

  • Samsung m20 is much better than y7 prime 2019

  • Can any1 guide us about slow motion video recording?

  • Vivo? they tend to overprice their phones since they spend too much on marketing, same with sister brand Oppo. Go to a mall, here in the Philippines there is no mall that has no ads from them. Not just ads, stores, kiosks, you name it. That's why they have a higher asking price compared to their other chinese rivals like Huawei and Xiaomi.

  • Vivo ? Are you kidding ?

  • As mention feature z very best according to current need but price is very according to market price of very popular and reliable androids phones.

  • vivo has much better phones in much less price

  • very good

  • Nokia and Xiaomi.

  • which other phones can u tell me thier names thier company

  • How can people call this a budget phone? For 200 Euros you can get much better phones from other brands.

  • man this is just only a budgeted mobile phone not mid-range or flagship from Huawei so don't expect to much. on this phone for that kind of price and looks of the phone you cannot get that for the price on the price like this.

  • Lets see what can Samsung and LG make in this price.

  • What the hell? Why such a good looking phone with low screen resolution? At-least you could have reduce the screen size to 5.8 inch.

  • No type c?? no kirin !!! poor camera i love huawei but we are in 2019?? no more microusb or using snapdragon 450 and in the worst case use a good camera maybe 24Mp but the only advantage is the battery
