MANILA, Philippines (June 13, 2025) – HUAWEI is set to enhance the digital lives of Filipinos with the upcoming launch of its new nova Y73 smartphone and FreeBuds 6 wireless earbuds, promising extended battery life, robust design, and immersive audio experiences.

Equipped with a 6620mAh Super Battery, the HUAWEI nova Y73 is designed for extended use, potentially requiring only two charges per week. This large battery supports up to 1.4 days of video playback, 2.6 days of music listening, or 2.2 days of calls on a single charge, even in temperatures as low as -20°C. The device is the first in the nova Y Series to support 40W HUAWEI SuperCharge Turbo, providing up to five hours of movie-watching from a quick 10-minute charge. Its AI Battery saving technology also contributes to charging safety, with the device having received global battery safety certification, according to a press release obtained by our editors.
