Huawei’s latest devices, the Nova Plus and MediaPad M3, have been registered with SIRIM last week. Earlier this week, the Huawei Nova was also registered with the certification body. Now, Huawei Malaysia have officially announced the availability of the former two products; their retail prices have been revealed as well, naturally.
Oddly enough, the other half of the Nova series, the Huawei Nova, is nowhere to be seen. Then again, the Nova has only been registered with SIRIM a few days ago, so it might take some time before the device officially goes on sale. Hopefully, it won’t be long until then.
For now, those who are eager to get their hands on Huawei’s new Nova series of smartphones will have to settle for the bigger variant, the Nova Plus. It features a 5.5-inch 1080p display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor paired with 3GB of RAM, 32GB of expandable storage, and a 3,340mAh battery. In the camera department, the Nova Plus has 16MP rear and 8MP front-facing cameras; the rear shooter also comes with optical image stabilisation.
The MediaPad M3, on the other hand, is a well-equipped Android tablet. It comes with an 8.4-inch 2560 x 1600 IPS display, a Kirin 950 processor paired with 4GB of LPDDR4 RAM, two choices of internal storage (32GB and 64GB), a 5,100mAh battery, 8MP rear and 8MP front-facing shooters, as well as a fingerprint sensor integrated into its home button.
According to Huawei Malaysia, both the Nova Plus and MediaPad M3 are now available in Malaysia; they can be purchased from Huawei authorised dealers. The Nova Plus retails at RM1,499, while the MediaPad M3 goes for RM1,699 and RM1,999 for the 32GB and 64GB models respectively.
