Retailing for PHP 14,990, the Huawei Nova 2i will likely rise as a definite challenge to any midranger competitor. It comes equipped with a Kirin 659 chipset with an octa-core CPU. Meanwhile, a 4 GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage complements the processor. For the screen, the ratio will measure at 18:9, but no word yet on the exact resolution. We expect a 16-megapixel plus 2-megapixel combo for the back camera, while the front shooter will have lenses of 13 megapixels and 2 megapixels. Lastly, the Nova 2i runs EMUI 5.1, based on Android 7.0 Nougat.
