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. Regardless of whether you’re streaming videos, multitasking between different apps, or playing games, the nova 12 SE and 12i can take on the task, no matter how demanding, without skipping a beat.

One of the standout features of the nova 12 SE and 12i is their long-lasting battery life, a feature that is important especially to a millennial and younger demographic. 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.

Thanks to EMUI 14, these smartphones provide extensive customization options for both the lock screen and home screen interfaces, empowering you to personalize every aspect of your device to match your distinctive taste and preferences. With user-friendly controls and several customization features, crafting a smartphone experience that is 100% your own has never been easier.

Choose from a variety of themes, ranging from elegant magazine or scrapbook styles to sleek minimalist designs or vibrant color schemes. 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.

All your favorite apps available and ready to go

The HUAWEI nova 12 SE and 12i will soon be available in both Huawei’s physical and online stores. Many of your favorite apps can already be found in HUAWEI’s AppGallery, the third largest app store in the world, including daily staples like Shopee, Lazada, GCash, BPI, and more!

What the LTO says about changing mag wheels, rims and tires of your car, motorcycle

The new LTO PMVIC, or the Land Transportation Office - Private Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers, has started operations in some parts of the country for inspections of cars and motorcycles due for registration renewal. Dubbed as MVIS (Motor Vehicle Inspection System), it aims to test the roadworthiness of private and commercial vehicles prior to their registration. This also includes the checking of modifications, upgrades and accessories that have been installed on your vehicles - whether factory or aftermarket. If they don't meet LTO standards, you fail the test. Failing the MVIS test means you have to retake the inspection and worse, you can't register your vehicle any more. For purposes of discussion, I chose to talk about wheels and tires because they are the most frequently modified parts of our cars and motorcycles. Now comes the question: Is it considered illegal to replace your wheels with aftermarket mag wheels? Can those u...

Traveling Abroad But Worried About An NBI Hit Or A Pending Criminal Case? Here's What You Should Do

Should you be worried? A legal question about an NBI hit with a pending criminal case came into my mail yesterday. I applied for an NBI clearance because it's a requirement for work in a company in USA (United States of America). But while at the NBI office, I was told that I have been previously charged with a crime and my trial is still underway. Can I enter USA? - from Mr. JCBuenaluz, Cavite Well, the answer is NO. If your trial is still underway, you are criminally inadmissible at this time and likely cannot enter the US. Or in any country at that. More so, when there's an HDO (Hold Departure Order) held against you. But, don't give up just yet. There's still hope! Crimes against moral turpitude The U.S., and other countries like in Europe or in Canada, make it very difficult for anybody with a criminal record to enter.  You can be barred from getting a visa for a very wide variety of criminal offenses – even if they seemed to be minor when you were...
