Two new Huawei Y-series devices get certified at EEC, could launch next year


Back in October, Huawei had announced that it will be expanding Y series with few phones starting from 2019. Recently two phones belonging to Y series have popped up online on Eurasian Economic Commission. The phones are believed to be Huawei Y6 (2019) and Y7 (2019). However, the EEC does not reveal any specs but it provides us their model numbers. The Y6 (2019) will be launched under model number MRD-LX1F and Y7 (2019) as DUB-LX1.

Since the devices have now been certified, we expect them to launch early next year. Their predecessors – the Huawei Y6 (2018) and Huawei Y7 (2018) – were launched around the same time this year. The budget offerings haven’t been released in India yet.

In the past, Huawei had launched Y6 (2018) and Y7 (2018) in the first quarter of the year and the company is currently working on releasing Y7 Prime in early 2019.
