Along the trail blazed by innovation, the HUAWEI nova series has always been with the youth on every step of the path. With every generation of HUAWEI nova smartphones, Huawei reinterprets the youth, technology and design.
The new smartphone which is set to be officially unveiled in the Kenyan market on Friday this week, has a High-Res camera system underpinning the outstanding photography experience it offers, and runs on the EMUI 12.
You can pre-order the smartphone at Kshs 39,999 and you get a free Huawei band 4.

The all-new 108MP quad-camera system sets a new standard for smartphones that are targeting at youthful consumers. Unlike mainstream smartphones that are often equipped with cameras that have 64MP sensors, the HUAWEI nova 9 SE uses a 108MP High-Res Camera to help users better retain details and produce exciting, high-definition photos.

Supported by EMUI 12, it unlocks new ways to take photos and videos, giving young people a series of endless surprises.
Super night shot
The HUAWEI nova 9 SE has a 1/1.52-inch large sensor equipped with stronger light capturing capabilities, the ability to respond better to night scenes and low-light shooting environments and capture more details.
With its advanced multi-frame noise reduction technology, the HUAWEI nova 9 SE can capture pictures in dark environments and increase the photograph’s brightness while reducing noise and improving the photo’s dynamic range as well.
AI high-res shot
HUAWEI nova 9 SE supports AI recognition shutter technology, enabling the smart adjustment of the shutter. Be it photographing people, landscapes, dynamic scenes such as playing, jumping, cycling, sports, or over 10 other commonly encountered scenarios, the HUAWEI nova 9 SE captures dynamic scenes with precision, allowing every single memory that matters to be preserved.
Creative vlogging experience
The new HUAWEI nova 9 SE also offers creative vlogging experiences. No matter if you’re on a trip or are simply recording your daily life, your vlogging experience will not be the same with HUAWEI nova 9 SE.
Users can easily take videos with HUAWEI nova 9 SE from different perspectives, anytime and anywhere, thanks to its lightweight design.
HUAWEI nova 9 SE supports Continuous Front/Rear Recording, which lets you seamlessly film from different perspectives and save your footage as a single file.
Whether for a short video or vlog, it streamlines the video production process by saving users time from complex editing.
The HUAWEI nova 9 SE also supports Dual-View Video. Users can use both the front and rear cameras to record at once to record two perspectives at once in a single video. Alternatively, they can also put shoot a zoomed shot and ultra-wide angle shot simultaneously.
With Dual-View Video, users can shoot a video featuring the scenic shots of the environment around them as well as themselves at once.
When editing a vlog, you can use the pre-installed Petal Clip app in HUAWEI nova 9 SE. It provides a variety of editing story templates, different video themes and music (from HUAWEI Music) to edit the footage you’ve shot.
Thanks to the AI algorithms, the upgraded version helps users to unleash their creativity with three new functions, including Auto-mark, Auto-caption, and Moving picture, making it easier to make vlogs with richer multimedia effects.
The system can intelligently identify song beats and automatically add a markup to the music. Using the auto-mark, users can easily edit pictures or videos to the beat of the music, creating viral tempo videos with ease.
Users no longer need to input tedious lengthy text themselves in order to add subtitles for videos; the system will intelligently recognise the human voice in the video and automatically add subtitles, making the process of adding video subtitles easier and quicker.
At the same time, the feature also supports batch editing. User can apply the style of one subtitle track to all subtitles synchronously, further unleashing their creativity.
Thanks to AI technology, portraits can now be brought to life with this new feature. Users only need to upload a static portrait, and the system can intelligently animate the portrait with human actions such as smiling and blinking, easily turning static photos into moving pictures.
Multi-scenario smart experiences
The EMUI 12 revolutionises the fragmented user experience with a more unified UI that brings users closer and devices together, sharing data and capabilities at once.
HUAWEI nova 9 SE continues the HUAWEI nova 9’s legacy and offers a completely novel camera experience with multi-scenario smart experiences.
Nova’s star orbit ring design is eye-catching as ever
The HUAWEI nova 9 SE’s rear lens bears the nova Series’ iconic Star Orbit Ring’s design. HUAWEI nova 9 SE inherits the classic Star Orbit Ring camera design, with its focus on the circle, giving a sense of aesthetic order with its symmetry.
With its slim body that is just 7.94 mm thick, couple with the 3D Glass Rear Cover, the HUAWEI nova 9 SE is light and fits well in your palm, making it comfortable and easy to hold.
Classic colours, reminiscent of nature
The aesthetic that young people desire is unique, eye-catching, and subtly bold. In line with the style of the HUAWEI nova series, HUAWEI nova 9 SE is available in three colours: Crystal Blue, Pearl White, and Midnight Black, to satisfy young people’s needs in the areas of fashion, colour, and matching.
Taking into consideration how curved glass provides a better glossy effect with a crystal clear texture, Huawei has used a dual-film dual-plating nano-texture technology (only for Crystal Blue) on the 3D Glass Rear Cover.
Through nano texture design, a film is coated on the cover’s surface, allowing the glass to glow with a subtle lustre and have an iridescent quality.
What’s more, the Star Orbit Ring’s camera module offers a star-like glare refraction that shines like bright stars in your fingers, accentuating the device’s refined, dazzling style.
10K-Level Smooth Light Adjustment provides comfort and protection for the eyes
Via 10K-Level Smooth Light Adjustment technology, the HUAWEI nova 9 SE’s screen brightness is automatically adjusted according to ambient light settings, bringing users a comfortable viewing experience.
In addition, the HUAWEI nova 9 SE’s eye protection mode can effectively reduce blue light for warmer and gentler colours, relieving eye fatigue and protecting users’ eyesight.
Multi-party MeeTime, supported on multiple devices
HUAWEI nova 9 SE is pre-installed with the MeeTime app, which supports multi-party audio and video calls. Thanks to the distributed technology of EMUI 12, users can seamlessly transfer their MeeTime video calls to HUAWEI Vision when they are home, allowing them to utilise the camera and speaker of the larger screen to stay connected in a more comfortable way.
The new and improved MeeTime brings support for 12-party calls on HUAWEI Vision, as well as Huawei smartphones and tablets.
Also, users can share and socialise diversified content online through the MeeTime app. In these trying times it can be difficult to socialise physically, users can stay close with friends and family by online chatting, recording and sharing every moment of their daily lives, enabling users to enjoy a rich social experience virtually.
