Honor has been quite active at the IFA 2020 technology fair that is taking place. However, its mother brand, Huawei, remains absent from the event. Now, Huawei has launched a new smartphone called Huawei Y9a, which has long been heard about in many leaks.

The phone sports a 6.63-inch IPS LCD panel with FullHD+ resolution (2400 x 1080 pixels) and a 92 percent screen-to-body ratio.

In the Middle East, Africa, and some Central Asian countries, it will have 40W fast charging support. Some of the other regions will receive support for 22.5 W fast charging. It also has a 3.5mm audio jack and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

The Huawei Y9a features a quad camera setup in square module design. The configuration consists of a 64-megapixel primary sensor, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor (120°), a depth sensor of 2-megapixel, and a 2-megapixel macro sensor. On the front, it has a 16-megapixel selfie camera in the pop-up module.

The phone runs Android 10 as an operating system under the EMUI 10.1 layer. It also comes with HMS (Huawei Mobile Services), replacing Google Services. At the moment, the price of the Huawei Y9a is not known. However, it will be available in three colors, including Space Silver, Sakura Pink, and Midnight Black.
