Huawei is adding yet another device to their lauded Nova series. Originally as the P40 Lite, the Huawei Nova 7i is now making its way to the Philippine market as a mid-range device for PhP 13,990.
The Huawei Nova 7i comes with a 6.4-inch LTPS IPS display with a resolution of 2310 x 1080. The smartphone removes the notch and instead uses a punch-hole in order for the 16MP f/2.0 to peek out of the display.
The smartphone has a quad-camera setup at the back composed of a 48MP f1/.8 Main camera, an 8MP f/2.4 Ultrawide, a 2MP f/2.4 Macro, and a 2MP f/2.4 Portrait lens. Inside the glossy chassis is a Kirin 810 chip with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of expandable internal storage.
The Huawei Nova 7i is powered by a 4,200mAh battery charged via a USB Type-C port at the bottom and supports 40W Huawei SuperCharge. The device ships out with Android 10 with EMUI 10 and comes pre-installed with the brand’s AppGallery.
