It doesn’t take a genius to figure it out
Huawei Philippines has started teasing a new phone in their Facebook page lately, and if it was unclear before that it was the Nova 2i, it’s definitely clear now. Their PR arm has just sent us a teaser image that confirms that the next phone that they’re launching has an 18:9 display.
If the image wasn’t enough, their PR agency also added the following sentence (emphasis theirs): With the latest inNOVAtion from Huawei coming your way soon, you need not worry about this any longer. Sporting a much bigger and better screen display size, you can fit in and use 30+ apps in a max of 2 swipes!
Huawei Nova 2i specs
- Kirin 659 octa-core processor
- 4GB of RAM
- 5.9-inch Full HD display, 18:9 display aspect ratio
- 64GB of storage, expandable via microSD
- 16-Megapixel and 2-Megapixel rear cameras with AF, OIS, PDAF, 4K recording
- 13-Megapixel and 2-Megapixel Pfront cameras
- Dual SIM
- 3G, LTE
- WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, A-GPS, Fingerprint scanner, USB Type-C
- 3,340mAh battery
- Android Nougat (7.0)
So, it’s pretty clear that Huawei is launching the Nova 2i here in the Philippines. The only question now is when, and how much – since the phone is supposed to be a mid-range device, we wouldn’t be surprised if it was launched with an aggressive price tag to fight the offerings of their Chinese rivals.
