Huawei has teased a trio of devices that’s set to launch in the Philippines soon, bolstering its expanding ecosystem of products available on the local market.
(Update: The Huawei Watch 4 has been launched in the Philippines! Our video on the Huawei MatePad 11.5″ PaperMatte Edition is also up. Watch it for the tablet’s features and price and availability in the Philippines. And if you need to know the Huawei nova Y72’s local price and availability, click on this!)
Specifically, the company’s local arm posted a teaser for the Huawei Watch 4, Huawei MatePad 11.5-inch PaperMatte Edition, and Huawei nova Y72. The latter is a modestly specced smartphone with a Kirin 710A 4G chipset and generous 6,000mAh battery under the hood.
It also features a dedicated hardware key called the X Button, which can be programmed to perform different tasks, such as launching your favorite streaming app or go-to food-delivery service. During Huawei’s NDA session with select members of the media, we were told that the company was actively pursuing a partnership with popular local apps to incorporate the X Button into their apps.
Another highlight of the phone is its design. The nova Y72’s look is obviously inspired by the Huawei P60 series. It sports a large camera lens for the 50-megapixel main sensor, alongside smaller rings for the secondary camera and LED flash.
Huawei Philippines‘ press release
The Huawei Watch 4, meanwhile, brings eSIM support for standalone calls and data on supported models, and also features GPS, Bluetooth, and NFC. It comes with two battery modes — Standard and Ultra-long Battery Life — and supports fast charging.
The Huawei MatePad 11.5-inch PaperMatte Edition is virtually identical to last year’s regular MatePad 11.5-inch, except the new model has a matte-finish display that’s smooth to the touch, rejects fingerprints, and reduces glare, all while providing industry-leading eye care and comfort. The screen uses nano-level anti-glare etching technology to deliver an authentic pen-on-paper experience without compromising too much on picture quality.
We’ll have more to say in our upcoming video featuring the Huawei MatePad 11.5″ when the local embargo lifts, so stay tuned for that.
