This year’s first new smartphone for the UK – an updated Huawei P Smart 2019

Huawei will put a new smartphone on display in the UK this week, the Huawei P Smart 2019. China’s leading smartphone manufacturer is starting the year with this budget-friendly handset, comprising cutting-edge features, combined with a premium look and feel. The company says that the P Smart is “a mid-market device targeting young consumers who are looking for an affordable, high quality user experience.”

Justin Costello, Huawei’s Director of Marketing, UK and Ireland, said, “Huawei’s devices truly disrupted the smartphone arena in 2018, making us the fastest growing smartphone brand in the UK and the second biggest globally. With its outstanding AI, photography and performance capabilities, the Huawei P Smart 2019 delivers a superior smartphone experience at an accessible price point.”

As the successor to the P Smart model launched a year ago, the Huawei P Smart 2019 has been improved with a larger screen, a front AI camera in an inconspicuous dewdrop notch, and a new TÜV Rheinland-certified Eye Comfort Mode, which filters blue light that can cause eye fatigue. The notably wider viewing area of the screen is 6.21-inch, with a 19.5:9 widescreen aspect ratio. Full HD+ (2340×1080) resolution together with the support for 85 percent of the NTSC colour spectrum offers spectacular screen viewing.

The phone’s AI camera system, an 8MP wide-aperture selfie camera and two rear cameras – 13MP and 2MP, will intelligently identify up to 500 different scenes and allow them to be optimised in real time.  Huawei AI Image Stabilisation, along with the wide-aperture lens, will help to stabilise images and eliminate blurry effects, thus producing clear and detailed pictures even in the dark.
