Huawei today announced the price of the Nova 2 Lite for the Philippine market, confirming our suspicion that the 18:9 phone with dual rear cameras won’t go any higher than P10,000 (around $192).
The Huawei Nova 2 Lite will be priced at P9,990 ($192) in the country. As we previously mentioned, preorders will run from March 14 to 23, and the redemption period will start from March 24th. Early adopters will get a set of wireless JBL headphones worth P4,599 ($88). That’s a sweet deal if we ever saw one. Check out the preorder details here.
At the said price point, the Nova 2 Lite will be competing head-on with the recently announced OPPO A83, which also sports a taller display, albeit in a smaller footprint. You can see how the upcoming Huawei phone stacks up against the A83 and four other competing handsets in our comparison article.
To recap, the Huawei Nova 2 Lite is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable storage. Measuring six inches across at an 18:9 screen ratio with a 1,440 x 720 resolution, it has slim bezels around the display.

The selfie camera is decent at 8 megapixels, while the 13-megapixel module at the back can take photos with blurred backgrounds with the aid of a secondary 2-megapixel sensor. Additionally, the Nova 2 Lite boots Android 8.0 Oreo from the get-go.
