Huawei has officially dropped a flood of new devices on the Philippine market, a product onslaught headlined by the Huawei Mate X6, its latest book-style foldable, the Huawei nova 13 series, and the Huawei FreeBuds Pro 4, a clear challenger to Apple’s AirPods Pro 2.
Obviously, the star of the show, the flagship Mate X6, commands attention with its durable thin-and-light design and massive rear camera with the industry’s first variable-aperture lens in this form factor. Available in the Philippines at P114,999 (around $1,966) for the lone 12GB/512GB configuration, it arrives in two vegan-leather finishes: a striking Nebula Red and a classic Black.
Preorders run through January 30, and Huawei is sweetening the deal with an aggressive early-bird bundle. Early adopters will walk away with a package valued at a staggering P44,797 ($766), which includes the 41mm Huawei Watch GT 4 smartwatch, a DJI Neo compact drone, and a full year of screen-protection coverage.

Like the previous generation, the latest nova 13 lineup offers a tiered approach to cater to different segments of the market. The series comprises the Huawei nova 13 Pro, the standard Huawei nova 13, and the budget-conscious Huawei nova 13i. The latter, aimed at price-sensitive consumers, carries a suggested retail price of P12,999 ($222) and is offered in Blue and White colors.

Stepping up, the nova 13 will retail for P24,999 ($427), offering a respectable 12GB of physical RAM and 256GB of internal storage. At the top of the range, the Kirin 8000-based nova 13 Pro, available in Loden Green and Black matte finishes, is priced at P32,999 ($564) for the sole 12GB/512GB model. Huawei is offering a compelling preorder bonus for both the vanilla variant and nova 13 Pro: a P12,999 ($222) Watch GT 4 will be included with each purchase.

Huawei FreeBuds Pro 4
Pricing for the Huawei FreeBuds Pro 4 and FreeBuds SE 3, which are set to debut on February 1, alongside the new rose-gold variant of the Huawei FreeClip open-ear earbuds, will be announced at a later date.
Rounding out Huawei’s comprehensive Q1 product announcement are subtle, yet noteworthy, updates to its existing lineup. The MatePad 11.5 tablet, previously priced at P18,999 ($325), receives a fresh Isle Blue color option, injecting a dose of vibrancy into the Philippines’ tablet segment. Additionally, the Huawei Watch GT 5 sees a new Light Gold variant with a matching Milanese strap getting a P13,999 ($239) price tag.
