The Huawei nova 12 SE 64GB is Huawei Test's 2024 smartphone featuring a 6.67 inches, 107.4 cm2 (~87.6% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 4G (6 nm) chipset. It comes with a 4500 mAh battery. Available in the UAE from AED 599.
The Huawei nova 12 SE 64GB excels with its 66W wired charging, filling the 4500mAh battery in 32 minutes, and its 90Hz OLED display delivering smooth motion at 1080x2400 resolution. The 32MP main camera captures detailed daylight shots with f/2.5 aperture, outperforming many mid-range rivals. It’s built for users who prioritize fast charging and vibrant screens over app ecosystems, such as students or commuters in regions where Huawei’s app store suffices for daily needs. Its weakness is the lack of Google Play Services, blocking access to WhatsApp, YouTube, and Maps updates without workarounds — a dealbreaker for many. In UAE at AED 599, it’s competitive because no other 66W charger under AED 700 offers an OLED 90Hz screen and NFC. In India at ₹N/A, it’s not recommended unless Google-free usage is acceptable, as alternatives like the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ offer similar charging with full Android support at comparable pricing.
