Huawei launched the latest addition to the nova smartphone series, the Huawei nova 5T, globally.

The high-end offering is expected to be done in September/October window, in time for the Christmas and year-end shopping period.
It is therefore quite critical for Huawei to roll out their mid-range Nova offering.

It was marketed as a “stylish entertainment device with top-notch performance and camera features” by the company.

Huawei has been trying their best in combating Trump’s relentless barrage of attacks of the company. They’ve even rolled out their own operating system, in the event that Google’s Android OS, currently still available on all Huawei’s devices – might be told to cut ties with Huawei.
Richard Yu, Huawei’s global handset boss has been quoted as saying “we can switch to our own OS in one or two days”, but the market has little faith in such boasts.
Huawei is the world’s second manufacturer of smartphones, behind Samsung’s lead. Apple is the third largest phone maker in the world presently.
