Chinese American actress Liu Yifei, 36, has recently gained huge popularity for her role as “Huang Yimei” in the TV drama “The Rose’s Story.” She shared a series of self-portraits on Weibo, including photos of herself eating grapes without makeup and posing with gifts from fans in the concept of “Yellow Rose,” symbolizing her character in the show. However, due to the blurry quality of the photos, fans have suggested that she should switch from using a Huawei phone.
In the self-portraits shared by Liu Yifei, she is seen holding bouquets of yellow roses, intricate metal rose flowers, and posing with her beloved cat and a drink with a yellow rose. Despite the slightly unclear images, her striking features, including her long wavy hair and full forehead, can still be appreciated.
The photos received widespread praise from fans, with comments like “very beautiful.” However, some netizens pointed out that in all of Liu Yifei’s selfies, the image quality appears to be consistently blurry, urging her to consider changing her phone, as Huawei’s high-p resolution may not fully capture her beauty.
Liu Yifei first revealed her phone model in 2021 when she was filming the hit historical drama “Dream of Splendor.” It was then discovered that she was using the first-generation Huawei Mate X2 folding screen phone. In the following three years, she did not even change her phone case. Last year, while filming the TV drama “Where the Wind Leads,” her character used the Huawei Mate40 Pro.
A survey once revealed that most celebrities in the mainland entertainment industry prefer using iPhones, while only a few endorse domestic brands due to sponsorship deals. Some stars, despite endorsing Chinese brands, still openly use Apple phones, leading to criticism for not being patriotic.
In recent days, Liu Yifei once again made headlines on Weibo with her self-portraits, sparking discussions among netizens about the image quality due to her continued use of a Huawei phone for selfies.
