Today, we officially welcome the Huawei Nova 2i to the Philippine market. A device of firsts for the brand, it sports a gorgeous 18:9 FullView display along with something you don’t see very often in other smartphones, four cameras.
What separates the Nova 2i from most other devices, are its four cameras. 16MP+2MP at the rear, and a 13MP+2MP setup at the front, the 2MP sensor is mainly used for the depth of field (or Bokeh) effect.
The Nova 2i sports a 5.9-inch display at FHD+ resolution, housed in a 5.5-inch body, giving you more room for content with minimal impact on handling. Under the hood is a Kirin 659 octa-core processor clocked, 4GB of RAM, and 64 GB of storage with microSD card support. It runs on EMUI 5.1 on top of Android 7.0 Nougat, and packs a 3,340mAh battery.
The Huawei Nova 2i comes in Black, Blue and Gold variants, and is now available at Huawei concept stores and authorized retailers for PhP14,990. It’s also available via Home Credit at 0% interest for 6 months without the need for a credit card.
