The Y6 Prime 2019, model number MT6761, arrived on my desk promising a compelling blend of features and affordability. This review details my experience with the Amber Brown 3GB RAM, 64GB version, putting it through its paces with everyday use and benchmarking tests. Let’s dive in.

The Y6 Prime 2019 boasts a 6.09-inch IPS LCD display with a 720×1560 HD resolution. While not the sharpest display on the market, it offers vibrant colors and decent viewing angles for its price point. The Amber Brown color is surprisingly elegant, feeling more premium than many budget phones. The dual rear camera, featuring a 13MP main lens and an 8-11.9MP secondary lens, paired with an LED flash, performed admirably in various lighting conditions, though low-light shots occasionally lacked detail. The phone’s active noise cancellation with a dedicated microphone proved quite effective during calls, even in noisy environments. Other features include a fingerprint scanner, a microSD card slot for up to 1TB of expandable storage, and dual SIM capability.

Powered by a MediaTek MT6761 quad-core processor clocked at 2 GHz and backed by 3GB of RAM, the Y6 Prime 2019 handled everyday tasks with surprising efficiency. Browsing, social media, and light gaming were smooth, with minimal lag. More demanding games, however, showed some frame rate drops. The 3020 mAh battery provided a full day of moderate use. Heavy usage, such as gaming and video streaming, reduced battery life considerably. Charging via the Micro USB port was relatively slow.

Pros:

• Attractive design and build quality.
• Surprisingly good performance for a budget phone.
• Decent camera for its price.
• Effective noise cancellation.
• Expandable storage up to 1TB.

Cons:

• Slow charging via Micro USB.
• Can struggle with demanding games.
• Battery life could be improved.
• Display resolution could be higher.

Overall, the Y6 Prime 2019 (MT6761) offers excellent value for money. While it has some limitations, its strengths outweigh its weaknesses, making it a solid choice for budget-conscious users who prioritize a balanced combination of features and performance. If you’re looking for a dependable everyday phone without breaking the bank, the Y6 Prime 2019 is worth considering. I’d recommend it for users who primarily use their phone for communication, social media, and light browsing.
