HUAWEI Y9s adopts a side-fingerprint design, which combines the power button and fingerprint unlock button into one. This design ensures the integrity of the front and back panels, and also makes the idea of “using one button for multiple purposes” a reality. Slightly tap the button to lock/unlock the screen. Press and hold for one second to activate Voice Assistant. Press and hold for up to three seconds to switch off the phone. In terms of unlock speed, HUAWEI Y9s provides instant recognition and Lock, which takes only 0.3 seconds to unlock with just one tap.
Stunning Colours to Reflect the Beauty of Time
Seasons come and go and one must capture the flow of time to observe the beauty of these dynamic changes. This is a design concept that Huawei has applied to its flagship smartphones. On HUAWEI Y9s, Huawei continues the concept of time aesthetics reflecting how salt flats change as time goes by. Two stylish colours, Breathing Crystal and Midnight Black symbolize the salt flats’ beauty in the day and night.
Under a blue sky and white clouds, mineral crystals in a salt lake blend with the water. The flat water surface reflects the beauty of the sky, Huawei captures such dreamy magical effects and engraves them on the back of a smartphone. Thanks to the nano-texture process (Breathing Crystal only), the colour of the back panel changes with light. When the night comes, over the lake the sky is still, deep and extremely dark, completely different from how it looks like in daytime. The lake mingles with the dark at midnight, creating an obscure and mysterious mood. Naturally, Midnight Black becomes a timeless and classic colour that people love.
Premium Glass Finish Created by Sophisticated Polishing Techniques
The mirror effects of the relaxing Breathing Crystal and calm Midnight Black cannot be made without the glass body. In order to have a shiny and transparent finish, HUAWEI Y9s is crafted by glass processing techniques and polished layer upon layer, to create a gorgeous glass texture. The Midnight Black is manufactured with a 15-layer glass process, while the Breathing Crystal variant is even more complicated, polished with a 21-layer glass process.
The glass back panel smoothly connects with the middle frames from both sides, forming a rounded and gentle body. In addition, the 3D Arc designed middle frames create a natural and seamless transition from the back to the front, which gives users a comfortable grip and makes the 6.59-inch device feel more compact and handy like a 5.5-inch phone. HUAWEI Y9s adopts a side-fingerprint design, which combines the power button and fingerprint unlock button into one. This design ensures the integrity of the front and back.
The Huawei Y9s is available in all accredited dealer shops across the country, though, it got sold out in the first four hours of its release.
