TO say that the Philippines’ smartphone scene is exciting is an understatement, as it turns out there were three preorder periods announced the past week. ASUS Philippines started accepting reservations for the ZenFone 3 Zoom March 27th. It was announced that preorder for the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ will begin April 17 and end April 29. And the latest to join the fray is Huawei Philippines.

(Update: The Huawei P10 and P10 Plus are priced at P28,990 [$582] and P36,990 [$742], respectively.)

The company revealed that preorder period for the Huawei P10 and P10 Plus will be from April 6 to 20.

If you’re bent on getting any one of the P9 and P9 Plus’ predecessors, you may want to reserve a unit immediately. The first 500 customers to preorder will get an exclusive Huawei P10 travel kit worth P5,000. You will also receive a 10-percent Leica Store Philippines discount voucher.

To do so, just go to any of the stores listed here. But better get P3,000 ready. That amount is required for you to reserve the Huawei P10 or P10 Plus. Take note, though, that a no-refund policy is applied. 

Unfortunately, the company has not announced the two smartphones’ local prices yet, but abroad, the Huawei P10 starts from $649 (roughly $685 or P34,500), which is significantly higher than the P9’s price of P23,990 ($477) in the Philippines at launch. 

For that amount, you’ll have a smartphone that notched a high score on DxOMark, an industry standard for camera and lens image-quality measurements and ratings.
