Reviews for the Huawei P Smart 2019
The new smartphone from Huawei, the P Smart 2019, can be described with these three words. The performance has been increased significantly and the smartphone runs the latest version of Android (9.0 Pie). However, in the course of our review, we observed several drawbacks that we also saw in our review of the predecessor.

The Huawei P Smart (2019) lacks the oomph we’d want for heavy multitasking and 3D gaming, but it has loads of storage for the price, a decent camera, best-in-class design and a killer screen. While it’s a shame there’s no case in the box given the fact its plastic body scratches very easily, it’s excellent value for money.

Coming in at less than £200, the Huawei P Smart 2019 is a surprisingly robust smartphone experience wrapped up in an eye-catching "ceramic-like" finish. While the cost may be low, the P Smart 2019 packs in a surprising amount of features that let this handset punch above its weight. Most impressive is its dual 13/2-megapixel primary camera, which packs in a surprising amount of features and can even take usable low-light photos. With the latest version of Android, which comes with an impressive set of additional features, a large battery and decent processor, this is an impressive phone at a very reasonable price.

Opening the latest smartphone offering from Vodafone was a little confusing. I was expecting the product to be a Huawei P smart 2019 handset which Huawei was targeted at users who were looking for a reasonably price handset, with a price tag of sub-£200, but the box containing the handset was embellished with the letters “VX” along with the Huawei logo and the year 2019. However further checking of the box revealed a label stating that this was the Midnight Black version of the Huawei P smart 2019. Other colour scenes available include Aurora Blue and Turquoise Blue.

It is not often that I review the same phone twice; however a lot has changed in this offering since my initial review last May. So it’s probably best to call this a new phone that just happens to have the same name as an earlier version.

Selling for a recommended R4 999, the Huawei P Smart is very reasonable when compared to other Android smartphones. What makes it particularly good value for money is that it features specifications and components that one may see in more expensive mid-range phones. As such you're getting far more bang for your buck.

The Huawei P Smart 2019 is a great option for the budget conscious and also for a first phone for a teenager. It ticks all the major boxes whilst not excelling at any one particular thing. I am impressed as to what Huawei has managed to cram into the phone.

The P Smart 2019 has a display that stands out with chart-topping accuracy but is distinctly good enough in other respects. Battery life is solid and charging speed isn't as slow as the pedestrian adapter would have suggested. Image quality is not flagship grade, but it'll do. It runs the latest OS in a world of generally outdated software. And all of this comes at a very reasonable price, which is often sweetened further by carrier subsidies. What's not to like?

The Huawei P Smart is classier-looking than last year’s phone of the same name. There’s an awful lot of good choices at around this price.

To kick things off for 2019, I have got a new phone from Huawei which went on sale with Vodafone (other networks are available) this morning.

A surprisingly robust smartphone experience for the price wrapped up in an inoffensive design that should appeal to anyone looking for a capable budget handset.

Given the similarities to the Honor 10 Lite and the 8Mp rather than 24Mp selfie camera, you might wonder why it’s worth buying the P Smart 2019 instead. And that, ultimately, is the biggest problem for Huawei’s latest budget phone.
