Besides a physically larger screen, the new Huawei smartphone replaces the upper bezel with an unobtrusive pearl-shaped notch that houses the front camera, and completely removes the lower bezel. Furthermore, the 415ppi high pixel density of the panel affords a higher FHD+ (2340x1080) resolution, which combined with the support for 85 percent of the NTSC color gamut, makes for a truly compelling viewing experience. Given how consumers are spending more and more time with their smartphones, HUAWEI P smart 2019 includes a new TÜV Rheinland-certified Eye Comfort Mode, which effectively filters high-energy blue lights to alleviate user eye fatigue during extended sessions.

Look Natural Effortlessly

Alongside a more premium display, the HUAWEI P smart 2019 is equipped with improved front and rear cameras. At the front, embedded in the dewdrop notch is a 16MP wide-aperture (f/2.0) selfie camera. As well as more powerful camera hardware, the selfie camera of HUAWEI P smart 2019 supports new AI and AR capabilities, and quality-of-life features such as gesture control. Portrait Mode lets users easily apply beautifying effects in the virtual viewfinder, a great way to touch-up selfies after-the-fact.

The high resolution primary camera is equipped with a 5p f/1.8 wide-aperture lens with a virtual aperture range of f/0.95-16, while the secondary camera collects depth information for accurate depth segmentation and creating authentic bokeh effects. Combined, the camera system can produce studio-quality portraits. AI operates in the background to intelligently recognize over 500 scenes and provide real-time optimizations, bridging the skill gap between a photography amateur and a professional. Furthermore, the HUAWEI AI Image Stabilization works in concert with the wide-aperture lens to produce bright, detailed, low-noise nighttime photos without the need for a tripod.
