3750mah is not small. The reason people dont buy this because its huawei.

Not many people use this phone huh. I'm shortlisting this phone to buy, on paper seems okay with 3750mah battery, flagship cpu, not so humongous screen size, cuthole front cam which i prefer than notch or motorized popup but review seem way, way scarse than desire. I'm mainly interested to know about battery life because my current phone got horrible battery life so wanna get a phone with atleast useable 7-8 hours sot. The trump v huawei bullshit are out of my concern.

For Huawei Nova 5T, the existing ban by US on Huawei is not applicable for this phone.

Bite the bullet and ordered purple set from shopee for 1399, cheapest so far. 2 weeks ago it appeared on shopee shocking sale for 1365 i think, but that time I'm still torned between this, mi 9 lite and oneplus 7. Hopefully a good buy, ticking all my box except the exclusion of headphone jack.

Welcome to the club

Lazada cheapest wor... RM1349

Dang thats even cheaper. But then i still prefer shopee over lazada because the option to choose j&t as courier.

planning to buy this for my wife

so many sellers selling at this (below RM1400) price point on lazada...
which 1 do you guys recommend?
1 seller even mentioned 'box will be unsealed for warranty activation'

I'd feel more comfortable buying from big name stores like viewnet (RM1499 after voucher with premium freebies) or directd, but if there's a reliable store that sells it by at least RM100 cheaper then why not

I can't really decide that for you. If you feel worth paying more then go ahead with it.

Just received mine few hours ago. So far its okay-ish for the price. The only thing I'm utterly disappointed is theres no support for band 20 even when gsmarena and kimovil stated it did, can't connect to yes4g band 20 at my house thus got no signal at all

Everything else are ok so far for the price i paid. Camera seems sharp enough even without ois, batterylife are awesome, fastcharge are super awesome can even charge while streaming netflix and the percentage raised without any overheat, performance are okay can run games i usually played like identity v and brawl stars without any noticeable framedrops or overheat, plus since i got the purple set the backpanel are super beautiful and unique too with the nova logo all over it. Gonna use extensively for a few days and see how this goes.

Which seller did you buy it from, mind sharing the link?
Did you receive a sealed box?

From NinjaMobile on Shopee. Yes i got a sealed Malaysia unit.

thanks for the info

Battery life are phenomenal on this phone. Didn't expect to get 8 hours of sot yesterday. And thats with heavy usage; netflix, heavy gaming, youtube, all via mobiledata not wifi. I probably can't even kill this phone battery in a day even if i try. Huawei really knows howto optimize their chipset and rom.

MY set comes with Google services? PlayStore etc?

Yes got all google service. The trump v huawei wont effect devicew released before the drama so it'll continue to get google service on future rom update too.

Thanks.
Still bought this Nova, and declined promoter who is trying really hard to sell Vivo 17pro.

This phone not selling well due to the speakers. Too soft for my liking.

Everything else is wonderful. But i am very particular on the speakers. Unfortunately the speakers are way way too soft even on max volume

Btw this phone only has L3 widevine so netflix will only goes max upto sd 540p only, no hd content. I'm okay with it since 540p are sharp enough for me.

Why every time I enable the usb debugging button. Ì will automatically disable?
