Buying advice for Algeria

Both Huawei nova 12 and Huawei P60 Pro are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.

Huawei P60 Pro is 13% cheaper at 84,000 DZD versus 96,000 DZD for the Huawei nova 12, leaving room for accessories or a longer screen-protection plan.

Huawei P60 Pro packs a 4815 mAh battery, which translates to longer screen-on time when you are away from a charger.

Huawei nova 12 reaches a higher main-sensor resolution at 50 MP, which helps with crops and lower-light photos.

Above 60,000 DZD, prioritise screen quality, fast charging, and a clear software-update commitment.
