Following the successful launch of Huawei Y9s in the Kenyan market, Huawei Mobile Kenya has rolled out a one week campaign that will see consumers pre-order the device and get FREE headphones in all retail stores across the country.
Speaking of the Pre-order, Huawei Mobile Kenya Country President said;
“There has been interest in the market following the launch of Huawei Y9s, an indication that there is high demand of our products by consumers who are very confident in our products. As we roll out the pre-order campaign, consumers are encouraged to walk into any of the retail stores across the country and make the pre-order. We are confident that over 1000 pre-orders will be made in the coming week ahead of the official availability of the devices in all our retail stores beginning of December.
If you are into gaming, you will love our latest device. Gaming on the HUAWEI Y9s is an immersive experience, thanks to the its unique Huawei Ultra FullView display that takes away all kinds of notches and bezels that treats gamers to 6.59 inches of FHD+ gameplay area. This is made primarily by moving the 16MP AI selfie camera to the top edge of the phone, where it remains hidden until activated upon which it automatically pops up.”
