Sleek and trendy: the ideal phone for Millennials and Gen Zers

In an ever-evolving digital landscape, smartphones have become more than just their purpose and utility; they’ve become an extension of their users’ personal style and aesthetic preferences. Featuring two eye-catching colors, the nova 12 SE and 12i embody this fusion of functionality and fashion.

The emerald-toned green option captures the hues of the aurora borealis and gives off a sense of wonder and enchantment. With its radiant tones, this color variant adds a touch of vibrancy to the smartphone, making it stand out in any crowd.




For those who prefer a more understated elegance, the nova series in obsidian black offers a sleek and sophisticated aesthetic. Symbolizing the mystery and allure of the night sky, this color exudes a sense of sophistication and refinement. Thanks to its deep, lustrous finish, the obsidian black nova 12 SE and 12i command attention while maintaining a sense of luxury. It’s the perfect choice for those who appreciate timeless style and sophistication.

Regardless of which color you opt for, however, both are coated with HUAWEI nova’s signature Star Effect Finishing, giving each unit a premium and distinctive feel when being held.




The nova 12 SE and nova 12i both sport the iconic Super Star Orbit Ring design, an homage to the original Star Orbit Ring camera designs found in several of HUAWEI’s previous nova units. This camera module boasts high-precision lenses and a flashlight arranged symmetrically within a bright-gold ring. Not only does this distinct aesthetic feature help you stand out from the crowd, but also ensures your phone isn’t as bulky or inconvenient to carry whenever you’re on the go.

Easily snap your picture-perfect moments with ease

HUAWEI’s nova 12 SE and nova 12i enjoy a 108MP camera, delivering unmatched clarity and precision in every picture taken. The high-definition results can be expected regardless of lighting situation as these cameras come with a large F1.9 aperture and a 1/1.67-inch sensor. The camera incorporates innovative nine-in-one-pixel fusion technology, meaning it enhances the ambient lighting to get the best shot. This ensures remarkable improvements when shooting in low-light environments, resulting in vibrant, true-to-life images.

For selfie enthusiasts, the nova 12 SE features an advanced 32MP High-Res selfie camera with noise reduction technology, guaranteeing vivid and clear selfies with minimal effort. Users can enjoy high-quality selfies straight from the camera, reducing the need for editing or touch-ups to achieve flawless results.




The user photography experience has also been improved with the integration of Zero Shutter Lag (ZSL) snapshot technology into the nova 12 SE and nova 12i. This advanced feature removes delay in capturing moments, so you can seize every opportunity with immediacy and precision. With ZSL technology, preserving cherished memories with exceptional clarity and spontaneity has never been easier.

Long-lasting battery for all-day use

Performance is at the core of the nova 12 SE and 12i, a feat HUAWEI takes great pride in. Powered by high-performance and equipped with ample RAM, these smartphones deliver smooth and responsive performance that can readily keep up with your busy lifestyle.

With a 5000mAh battery and efficient power management, these smartphones offer extended usage times, ensuring that you can stay connected and productive throughout the day without having to constantly recharge.




The large battery is further complemented by each model’s capacity to support HUAWEI SuperCharge Turbo. This cutting-edge charging technology eliminates the need for prolonged waiting periods during charging sessions. In just 30 minutes of charging, users can experience a remarkable boost, with the battery reaching up to 62%, ensuring that you spend less time tethered to a power outlet and more time enjoying the seamless performance of your device.

Additionally, the nova 12 SE and 12i introduce HUAWEI’s intelligent AI-powered battery conservation system, effectively addressing the common issue of battery drain caused by background apps. With this innovative add-on, battery passively deteriorating now becomes a thing of the past. Equipped with eight different power-saving modes, the AI-powered battery conservation tool’s algorithm effectively tracts, identifies, and disables non-essential applications or programs, resulting in the smartphone unit having a significantly prolonged battery life to get you through the day.

EMUI 14: Better customization, greater user experience

With an ultra-high screen-to-body ratio, both the HUAWEI nova 12 SE and 12i support a 90Hz refresh rate, making for an almost instant screen response. This, coupled with each phone’s improved customization features, creates a seamless and immersive user experience, allowing users to effortlessly navigate through apps, games, and multimedia apps with unparalleled speed and precision.

With user-friendly controls and several customization features, crafting a smartphone experience that is 100% your own has never been easier.

Additionally, you have the option to embellish your wallpaper with emojis, each imbued with its own captivating 3D effects, adding a dynamic and whimsical touch to your device.

This Uniqlo x Toyota collab turns car icons into streetwear you’ll actually wear

Car tees just got a major upgrade. Uniqlo and Toyota are dropping graphic shirts that turn your love for legendary rides into everyday fits — and yeah, the Land Cruiser finally looks as cool on cotton as it does on trails. Your Closet Is About To Get Horsepower Let’s be real: most “car guy” shirts are either boxy, cringey, or stuck in 2006. Uniqlo just said not anymore.  They’ve teamed up with Toyota for a new UT collection that takes four of Japan’s most iconic cars and slaps them onto tees you’d wear even if you couldn’t tell a piston from a Pokémon. The secret sauce? Japanese collage artist Kosuke Kawamura. His style is loud, layered, and full of attitude — think shredded magazine meets museum wall. He took the Land Cruiser, Corolla, HiAce, and the mythical 2000GT and turned them into graphics with actual personality.

LTFRB’s Komyu-Konek Hotline: Finally, a way to report abusive PUV drivers that actually works

You know the type. The jeepney driver who treats your stop like an optional suggestion. The conductor who overcharges and dares you to complain. The bus that turns EDSA into its personal parking lot while belching black smoke into your lungs. For years, we just swallowed it and vented on Facebook because reporting felt pointless. The LTFRB just changed that. They launched Komyu-Konek, a Viber hotline that lets you report abusive PUV drivers with photos and video straight from your phone. And the kicker? They’re actually built to act on it.  Your New Superpower Against Abusive Commutes Let’s be honest. When you’ve got your own car or motorcycle, PUV problems are background noise. You’ve got AC, your playlist, and zero strangers arguing with the conductor. You leave on your time. Then fuel prices exploded. Suddenly “background noise” became your 6AM ...

Check NAIA parking in real time: Slot counts update every 60 seconds

We’ve all tried checking parking “before leaving the house” only to arrive at NAIA 90 minutes later to a full lot. With Manila traffic, real-time means nothing if it’s not your real time. That’s why New NAIA’s live parking checker actually matters most when you’re 10 minutes out. It updates every 60 seconds, so your passenger can pull it up on the go and you’ll know if Terminal 3’s multi-level is a go or a no-go before you even take the ramp. The NAIA Parking Update You’ll Actually Use Let’s be real. Knowing a parking slot was open when you were still in Quezon City doesn’t help when you hit Terminal 1 after an hour of traffic. The game-changer with New NAIA’s parking dashboard isn’t checking from your couch. It’s checking when you’re already on NAIAX or passing Resorts World. Fresh data, right when you need it. This is part of the airport’s overhaul under New NAIA Infrastructure Corporation. No app needed. It’s live on the New NAIA we...

Metro Manila’s truck ban just eased up — Here’s how to beat the traffic that’s coming

The MMDA just hit pause on delivery and pass-through fees to keep grocery prices steady during the energy crunch. Good news for your wallet, maybe not for your rush hour commute. With more fuel tankers and cargo trucks now cleared to roll 24/7, your usual crawl on EDSA might turn into a parking lot. Here’s what’s changing and how to outsmart the gridlock before it hits you.
