Huawei is bringing in two new entries in the nova lineup: the nova 12SE and nova 12i. Both smartphones are designed to be more budget-friendly than the base nova 12 while still offering plenty of features including 108MP main cameras.
Their 108MP f/1.9 main shooters come with a 1/1.67-inch sensor designed to capture images even in challenging conditions, promising vivid and color-accurate shots. Huawei has integrated their Zero Shutter Lag technology on the two smartphones to reduce shutter lag and take shots even faster.
The nova 12SE and nova 12i also share the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 chip inside complemented by 8GB RAM and 256GB of internal storage. It is the 4G variant, however, so the two smartphones will be limited to 4G connectivity.
They will run on EMUI 14. Huawei focuses on security and privacy this generation by introducing an app tracking management system. You can now decide which apps can track their activities on other applications and websites. They have also included Live View where you can receive real-time updates in floating windows.
Both the Huawei nova 12SE and nova 12i will be available through Huawei’s online website and authorized retailers nationwide in the future. Pricing and availability will be announced soon.
