Huawei P Smart 2019 review

25 January 2019
Larger screen with a trendy notch, newer chipset, bigger battery, and a current OS version - it sure sounds like Huawei has ticked a lot of boxes to bring an already successful formula to the year 2019. It's the Huawei P Smart 2019 we're talking about, the follow up to the smartphone that happened to be the star of one of our most read reviews last year.

      I just had mine in 7 days... It keeps ringing as if someone is calling and there's nothing on the screen, no calling no what. Don't know what's wrong with it.

          Trolls in comment section are the reason we will never be taken seriously. Why don't you just create your own phone and leave every other one since you bash every phone that's reviewed.

            I wish phone itself was as good as it's ad in Turkey...

            Ad is perfect but the phone is...

              I just took delivery on my new hand set. I was very excited to have a hand set that has launched only 2weeks ago. So to me it has that brand new pioneering feel to it as it rightly should.
              The sales person literally pushed me into this hand set, when considering the p20 light. Unfortunate fact is, then I did not do amazing gsm arena phone comparison at that time. Now when I got home I read up about the difference in features and I'm disappointed that I never took the P20 lite instead.

                          Just a slightly smaller version of the 8X.
