Huawei Nova 5T Launches in the Philippines

Huawei just launched their newest mid-range smartphone in the country and it’s the Huawei Nova 5T. The smartphone comes with 5 AI cameras with quad-camera setup at the back and one on the front. Not just that, the smartphone will also have a dazzling color design with textures and reflective design and a powerful hardware inside.

Huawei Nova 5T Specs

  • 6.26-inch Full HD+ display with a punch-hole design
  • HiSilicon Kirin 980 processor
  • 8GB RAM

The Huawei Nova 5T’s price is definitely interesting as we got a very powerful processor on this smartphone which is also used on the Huawei P30 Pro and we got a quad-camera at the back. However, this one doesn’t have the same camera setup of the Huawei P30 Pro as this one uses a macro sensor instead.

The smartphone also boasts a 22.5W fast charging with Huawei Supercharge in its USB-C port and then there’s the side fingerprint scanner which is really accessible and pretty fast.

You can pre-order the Huawei Nova 5T for Php18,990 on September 6-13 and it will come with free pair of Huawei bluetooth speakers along with free 1 year Iflix subscription. If you ask me, the price of this one is really competitive and will definitely rock the mid-range segment.
