Huawei Nova Y61 Launches in SA: Price, Details

Huawei’s latest entry into the Nova Y range of devices, the Y61, has officially launched in South Africa.

The new Huawei Nova Y61 is an upgrade of the Nova Y60 that was launched in 2021, and is headlined by a new design, a camera upgrade from 13MP to 50MP, and a 22.5W SuperCharge capability, which is a notable improvement from the 10W SuperCharge of the Y60.

One of the biggest attractions on the 6.52-inch Nova Y61 is the 50MP AI Triple Camera. The three rear lenses are led by the 50MP Main Camera, allowing you to take high-res photographs with crystal clear details and ideal brightness. The second rear lens is the 2MP Depth Camera.

The Depth Camera works in tandem with the 50MP Main Camera to produce well-lit aperture photographs that highlight the subject and their features in full clarity, enriching the layers of the image capture, and creating a bokeh background that will not contrast too harshly against the main subject of the shot. Finally, the third lens would be the 4cm Macro Camera, which helps with close-up shots.

On top of that, the device features 4GBs of RAM, 64GBs of storage, a 5000mAh battery with the aforementioned 22.5W SuperCharge feature, along with a sparkle-design on the back case.

The Huawei Nova Y61 is priced at R3,299 from the Huawei online store and at selected retailers.
