Huawei, the Chinese multinational cooperation and technology company, has finally launched its much-awaited smartphone – the nova Y73 in the Philippines. Designed for everyday hustle, this affordable smartphone punches well above its weight both in power and durability.
Wrapped in aerospace-grade aluminium alloy, the latest smartphone isn’t just long-lasting but is built to survive the chaos of daily life, combining style with strength. Thanks to 360° full fall resistance, 1.8-meter drop protection, and the ability to withstand 65kg of pressure, the Nova Y73 is rugged where it counts.
A spacious 6.67-inch Eye Comfort Display that’s easy on the eyes during those binge-watch sessions, this smartphone comes with an IP64 rating, which means that it can handle dust and splashes like a pro. And for added convenience, the new HUAWEI X-Button offers one-touch access to your favourite tools and settings. Available now in the Philippines for just PHP 9,999 (USD 175.82), and every purchase includes a free HUAWEI Band worth up to PHP 2,399 (USD 42.18).
However, this is not the first time that Huawei has used aluminium for its smartphone body. Previously, China-based companies have used this sustainable metal for Nova 14, Huawei Mate X3, Nova, and Nova Plus.
The use of aerospace-grade aluminium in smartphone bodies is a strategic design choice that combines aesthetics, performance, and durability. This material, commonly used in aircraft and spacecraft components, is known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. For smartphones, this means manufacturers can craft devices that are both lightweight and highly durable, without compromising on form factor. The result is a sleek, premium-feeling phone that’s also tough enough to handle daily wear and tear.
One of the key advantages of aerospace-grade aluminium is its high structural integrity. It offers superior resistance to bending, dents, and drops compared to traditional plastic or lower-grade metals. For rugged smartphones like the HUAWEI nova Y73, this means better protection against accidental falls and pressure, ensuring the phone remains intact and functional even under tough conditions. In fact, such aluminium alloys are specifically engineered to endure physical stress, making them ideal for consumers who prioritize durability.
