Huawei nova 8 price announced at RM1,899 with free gifts

Huawei Malaysia has just launched their latest midrange smartphone dubbed the nova 8 and have announced an RM1,899 price tag along with a slew of free gifts that come with it.

For its asking price of RM1,899, the huawei nova 8 will come with 1 month free of 200GB worth of Huawei Cloud Storage, 1 week of free Joox VIP access, a Huawei ‘exclusive’ voucher and an Entertainment Gift Box.

In terms of hardware, the Huawei nova 8 attempts to tick all the right boxes. It comes with 6.57-inch FHD+ OLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate, runs their EMUI 12 under the hood on a 7nm Kirin 820E processor paired with 8GB RAM and 128GB of storage.

Of note is that the nova 8 maxes out at 4G LTE connectivity and as you’d surmise, lacks support for Google apps and services so you’ll have to rely on Huawei AppGallery and sideloading as alternatives for applications.

On the rear, the phone has a quad camera array built around a primary 64MP F/1.9 camera with PDAF, a secondary 8MP ultra wide angle camera, a 2MP depth sensor and a 2MP macro camera. Up front, the phone has a 32MP selfie camera which ought to ensure video calls and portraits are a treat. 

Connectivity for this particular version is capped at 4G LTE, WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5 with the phone’s 3,800mAh battery offering fast 66W SuperCharge charging tech that’s capable of offering a 60% charge in 15 minutes and a full charge in 35 minutes.
