[Update: Amazon India starts pre-registration for Huawei Y9s]

The Huawei Y9s which was first launched in November 2019 has been listed on Huawei’s official website and Amazon India, however, there is no official information about the release date or price. It is possible that when the ongoing lockdown is further eased, the smartphone will be made available. The smartphone brings with it a pop-up selfie camera, a feature that was the in-thing in 2019. The advantage of a pop-up selfie camera is that it gives the smartphone the ability to have a higher screen to body ratio and avoids the notch or punch-hole design that has the possibility of being distracting when consuming content. The smartphone is a dual SIM device and runs on Android Pie + EMUI 9.1.0. Despite having a massive 4000mAh battery the device is light, weighing a mere 206 grams. Let's dive deep into the specifications of the Huawei Y9s.
