It is priced at UGX 500,000 as and is available on Jumia Uganda and select smartphone shops like Simba Telecom. The trade ban from the US government means that the latest Huawei phones can’t run Google services (Gmail, Google Play Store, etc.) This is probably a deal-breaker most especially to foreign markets like Uganda. However, without the PlayStore, there is still a way to install apps on to your phone. If you wouldn’t mind the extra work, the Huawei brand is a highly recommended one for smartphones.
