Speaking at the launch, Steven Li, Head of Eastern Africa Mobile, “Huawei Y7 Prime 2019 is made for today’s dynamic youth who are deeply engaged with the social media culture.  Given the rise of video-centric platforms, the Huawei Dewdrop Display—first debuted with the flagship Huawei Mate 20 Series—lends itself to great viewing experiences thanks to its top class screen-to-body ratio of 86.7 percent. The pearl-shaped notch that houses the 16MP front camera is Huawei’s smallest notch to date; it is situation on the vertical axis of the device, and does not disrupt the harmonious symmetry of the near-full screen design.”

“We are getting into the month of LOVE, what an opportunity to launch one of our mid-range phones that comes in different colours (Red, Blue and Black) in the market. We are glad to officially unveil RED color in the market, a first in the market and a great color to gift your loved one during this valentine’s period.” He concluded.

Alongside background optimizations that enhance system operational smoothness, EMUI 8.2 features a range of battery saving measures that help the users make the most out of their device. For instance, EMUI 8.2 features a Battery Saving Mode that disables certain features on the phone for better battery efficiency. These features synergize with the class-leading 4000mAh battery, offering two-day battery life for everyday users.
