Huawei P Smart 2019

The Huawei P Smart 2019 is Huawei's answer for those looking for an affordable smartphone in 2019. The screen has been made bigger, the camera better and the housing more attractive. You can read exactly how big, how good the camera is and what the housing is made of here.

Front almost entirely of screen

The Huawei P Smart series reaches its second year with this P Smart 2019. The difference with its predecessor is quite big. First of all, the screen. This time we used a rimless model with a drop-shaped notch at the top. Behind that you'll find the selfie camera. The FullView Display is tight against the top. Also left and right there is hardly any screen border. Only at the bottom is some space left, which is needed for the antenna, among other things. Despite its screen size of 6.21 inches, it is not much larger than its predecessor that was equipped with a 5.65 inch screen.

Camera thinks along

The glossy housing of the Huawei P Smart 2019 has the necessary curves at the edges and therefore fits comfortably in the hand. Huawei also applies the necessary color, there is even a version with a double color that subtly blends into each other. On the back we find a double camera (13 and 2 megapixels). Special however is the bright lens of maximum f/1.8 which is remarkably good in this price category. It ensures that in dark situations, such as twilight, you can still take well exposed photos. The presence of a second camera ensures that it can perceive depth. This is used to make backgrounds a little bit blurry. This results in portraits in which your subject almost literally seems to stand out.

Smart thanks to the processing power of the Kirin 710

At the front you'll find a selfie camera with the necessary AI; artificial intelligence. It recognizes 8 different positions and automatically selects the best settings. The P Smart (2019) is helped by the processing power of the Kirin 710. This is the chipset that Huawei has placed inside. It is powerful yet energy efficient enough to do these kinds of tasks all day long. It draws its power from a 3400 mAh battery. Once empty, it can be quickly recharged with the corresponding quick charger. Too bad you need an old-fashioned microUSB cable for this. By the way, this Huawei P Smart 2019 is exactly the same device as the Honor 10 Lite. So compare the prices because you get exactly the same.
