On the imaging front, it has a 16-MP F/2.0 selfie camera mounted on a motorised pop-up mechanism to ensure that the front display gets as much screen real estate as possible.

Both the Huawei Y9s and Y9 Prime can be acquired at all Huawei Experience stores, Huawei official retail stores and Huawei’s online stores nationwide. There’s a few extra steps to redeem the free Band 4 smartband of course when you buy the Y9S as you have to add in your details and redeem it via their AppGallery app but it’s well worth the trouble.
