Initial findings
Good benchmark score for a budget phone |
1. The build of the phone is just okay, but the Y6 2018 is one of the better looking phones for the price. It is also one of the very few with an 18:9 screen aspect ratio. As a result, it has a taller looking screen for your wider viewing experience. The HD+ screen of this device even has 10 points of touch.
2. Inside, the phone is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 425 chip. it is a quad-core processor designed to provide acceptable performance on budget smartphones. It also has 2GBR AM, 16GB expandable storage, and 3,000mAh battery. Interestingly, our initial charging speed test is quite fast for a phone with 1A USB charger only. It has LTE connectivity too.
3. It is one of the few budget phones with Android Oreo out of the box in the Philippines. It has the EMUI 8.0 skin on top of Oreo. EMUI 8.0 skin is one of the cleanest looking around. It is also responsive and fast enough for the price.
4. At the back, Huawei loaded this handset with a 13MP f/2.2 primary sensor and a 5MP selfie snapper. The 13MP camera can shoot great daylight photos and decent indoor images. The selfie shooter is quite good too. It even has a selfie toning screen flash for natural looking selfies in lowlight.
Huawei also revealed that they'll seed a software update to add cute AR filters on this device soon.
5. It has LED notification, OTG, and dual SIM slots. The speaker is also as loud as advertised. The face unlock is speedy and responsive in well-lit conditions so far.

As of the moment
So far, the Huawei Y6 2018 is a very promising multimedia-centric entry-level smartphone. We like that it is one of the few with a near bezel-less 18:9 screen paired with decent specs, cameras, face unlock tech, and a single loudspeaker for just PHP 5,990!For our review: Huawei Y6 2018 Related - NOT Your Average Entry-level Smartphone
