While most of the people are busy gossiping about Huawei’s new Nova 2i, the company’s new Y7 went unnoticed. The Huawei Y7 was unveiled alongside the mid-ranger at a dedicated event held in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Carrying the Y7 moniker, the phone similarly borrows most of its specs from the already launched Y7 Prime, though, comparatively at a lower price. The device sports a 5.5-inch IPS HD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels. Underneath sits the Snapdragon 435 SoC; which can also be seen on Y7 Prime. However, there’s less amount of memory onboard — it comes with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage with an option for expansion through microSD card slot.
The Huawei Y7 borrows similar optics from its big brother. The phone boasts a 12MP camera at the rear with f/2.2 aperture, PDAF, and LED flash. Up front, there’s an 8MP sensor with f/2.0 aperture rate for selfies.
Besides the lower RAM and storage, the phone significantly misses out on the fingerprint scanner, which was present on the Y7 Prime. Rest assured, the specs are intact, including an impressive 4000mAh battery and Android 7.1 Nougat. The 4G LTE supporting phone will go on sale for Rs. 15,900 in Nepal.
