The Handset
It’s very lightweight. For a phone that has 3000MAH battery, it’s pretty lightweight. It has that familiar Nova2i feel, premium to the touch and very nice to fit in the hand. I love big screen phones so this one has that covered.

It offers a 5.99” FullView Display. A very massive screen real estate if you ask me, but then again, I love it when a phone have a wide display and a great high definition resolution. This is perfect for those wanting to watch high definition videos, play graphics heavy games, viewing social media feeds and more.

The Huawei Nova2 Lite now has the EMUI 8.0 an update to their famous User Interface system which has the ability to predict user intentions and provide recommendations to the function you need so that you can use your phone more efficiently.

It is actually smooth to use and fast responding. You can have a columned view for multiple apps too!
