Huawei Y6s Overview
Display and Design
Huawei Y6s comes with an IPS LCD screen of 6.09-inch diagonal length. The display comes with a 1560 x 720 resolution and a pixel density of 283 PPI. On top of the display, there is a waterdrop style notch to house the selfie camera. Except for the Huawei branding at the bottom of the screen, the front looks similar to any other budget smartphones available in the market right now. At the back, there is a single-camera setup accompanied by an LED flash. The fingerprint scanner is also mounted at the back of the device. The dual-tone pattern at the back looks inspired by the Google Pixel lineup of smartphones. The volume rocker and power button are placed on the right side of the device.Processor
Under the hood, it packs MediaTek's MT6765 Helio P35 processor. It is backed by 3GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage onboard. However, you can expand it up to 512GB through the microSD card slot. The graphics are handled by IMG PowerVR GE8320 GPU.Camera
Huawei comes with a single 13MP camera at the back. The sensor has an f/1.8 aperture. The phone comes equipped with a rear LED flash. On the front, there is an 8MP camera housed inside the waterdrop notch. It has an aperture of f/2.0.Software and Connectivity
The phone runs on Android 9.0 (Pie) with Huawei's EMUI 9.0 UI on top. Interestingly, the phone has retained the Google Mobile Service amidst the ban.
