Q: Why have you decided to bring Huawei Nova 5T to Sri Lanka?

 We always believe that our new technological advances should be brought to our loyal customers in Sri Lanka. Our fans here have embraced all our innovations unreservedly and have been part of a loyal Huawei customer base over the years. The Nova 5T brings out a lot of technological innovations that Huawei has brought forth for the first time, such as first ever 7-nanometer Kirin 980 AI Chipset for a flagship smartphone of its price, and we consider that our fan base should enjoy these advances.

The phone’s AI-powered Super Night mode ensures ‘blur-free’ footages in low-light conditions. The Macro lens allows the user to focus on objects as close as 4cm while the 48 MP main back camera features a Sony ½-inch CMOS sensor that makes the Nova 5T a tremendously capable photographic tool. The front selfie camera, integrated into the FullView screen, features a 32MP f/2.0 lens that is housed in a punch-hole at the top left of its display. Additionally, the ISO sensitivity of the Huawei Nova 5T is proved to be in compatibility with those of leading cameras. The camera also sports professional bokeh effects and features the all-new AI Portrait Colour that gives off a more cinematic feel to your pictures.

 The Nova 5T is available in the youthful colours of Midsummer Purple, Black and Crush Blue which is more appealing to the millennial eye. This phone, with all its capabilities is exclusively designed for the younger generation. The 3D effect on the back surface is also particularly attractive and one of its kind. Additionally, the new Nova logo is integrated into the 3D surface of the Midsummer Purple version of the smartphone for a more appealing and youthful look.

Q: How is this smartphone more advanced than the rest of the Nova family?

 The Nova 5T comes with the EMUI 9.1 and the smartphone is proven to have a 59% faster app launch speed and further 57% smoother UI operation than that of the Nova 4. Its GPU Turbo 3 allows users to indulge in virtual gaming with absolutely no lag.

We have offered them an instalment basis payment for Huawei Nova 5T as well, so that it is significantly easier for them to gain access to this flagship phone. We believe that our dedicated consumer base will continue to grow faithfully through the impending years.
