It’s been nearly a year since Huawei launched its Nova 3i in Nepal. The device turned out to be the best seller from Huawei in Nepal till date. A good display and a processor, a great looking glass design, Nova 3i still has it all to qualify as the best device in the mid-range category.
Huawei Nova 3i was priced at Rs. 38,900 during its launch. It then received a price drop of Rs. 2,910 on the occasion of New Year. Now, yet again it is getting a price drop. This time the phone will go on sale for a price of Rs. 35,990 in Nepal.
But it’s not just the Nova 3i getting a price cut from Huawei, i.e. the company is also cutting down the price of Y9 2019 in Nepal. It was launched nearly three months after Nova 3i got launched in Nepal. A slightly bigger display than the Nova 3i, Y9 2019 had quite a lot of similarities with the Nova 3i except for the camera where its counterpart is superior. But you get an extended battery capacity in the Y version.
Anyway, both are the great phones in the mid-range category and with their prices being dropped again, you can still buy them.

Should you buy them?
Why not! These are still better devices in their price range. We do now have options from other brands like Samsung which just came with its new M-series and A-series phones a while ago. But again, as the prices of both phones have gotten low, the devices are a perfect fit for your purse and still have the edge to make good sales
