Huawei Sound X arrives in Singapore
Huawei’s first Hi-Fi speaker
Huawei’s Hi-Fi speaker the Sound X — which was launched alongside the P40 series — is now in Singapore.
It’s the first-ever dual-subwoofer Hi-Fi speaker, co-designed with French audio brand Devialet with premium hardware, a stylish exterior, and next-level software. Devialet is a global audio brand known for its High-Fidelity products.
It’s not a smart speaker in the way that there’s a voice assistant integrated like the Google Home or the Amazon Echo, but it does have some ‘smart’ qualities.
For instance, it will work seamlessly with your Huawei P40 series phone. Gently tapping your phone against the Sound X transmits audio to the speaker.
The audio, Huawei says, is lossless and low-latency and can be tweaked thanks to a proprietary EMUI 10.1 multi-device control panel. Think of like Huawei’s own version of Apple’s AirPlay.
Another thing that Huawei is proud of about the Sound X is how compact it is compared to other speakers that promise to deliver the same level of hi-end audio. It’s able to deliver 60W of bass despite being relatively smaller than other speakers with the same capability.
Pricing and availability
The Huawei Sound X is available starting July 4, 2020 at a retail price of $G$ 498 in all Huawei Concept Stores, Huawei official online stores in Lazada and Shopee as well as authorized retailers including Best Denki, Challenger, COURTS and Harvey Norman.
Every purchase of the HUAWEI Sound X is covered with a one-year warranty, terms and conditions apply.

It’s fitting that PlayStation Asia thought of this idea for a launch event. We already know for a fact that players can customize Eve with various outfits.

In 2020, Nissan unveiled the Kicks e-Power, which the car manufacturer touted as not just one’s conventional hybrid vehicle. Four years after, Nissan is back with a new fully electric motor-driven offering released in Singapore: the Nissan Note e-Power.
The successor to Kicks e-Power, the Note e-Power also harnesses Nissan’s second generation e-Power technology. The electrified hatchback uses fuel to power its electric motor. This motor then drives the car for a smoother, quieter, and more efficient run each time, minus the need for charging.
Price, availability
The Note e-Power dons a simplistic Japanese hatchback look with a more curved roof compared to typical SUV designs. This is accentuated by a signature V grille and slim-line headlights.
The car is available in Vivid Blue/Black Star (two-tone), Opera Mauve/Black Star (two-tone), Brilliant Silver, Dark Metal Grey, and Burgundy Red. It is available for booking starting at SG$ 143,800 until 12 noon of April 3.
Customers shall also get a 10-year lithium-ion battery warranty and five-year unlimited mileage vehicle warranty.
Enhanced safety features
The Note e-Power comes packed with enhanced safety features. For the first time on a Nissan vehicle, a 1,470 MPa ultra-high tensile steel has been adopted in the vehicle chassis. This contributes to weight reduction and improved passive safety performance.
To aid drivers throughout their rides, the car also comes with intelligent systems, such as:
- Intelligent Emergency Braking
- Intelligent Lane Intervention
- Intelligent Rearview Mirror
- Intelligent Trace Control
- Intelligent Forward Collision Warning
- Intelligent Driver Alertness
- High Beam Assist
- Electronic Parking Brake with Auto Hold
When parking, the system on dashboard shows the vehicle’s distance to an obstacle by green, yellow, and red indicators. Should they forget locking and unlocking, the car also automatically locks when the driver walks away, and unlocks when the driver approaches.
Futuristic interior
Inside, the Note e-Power has a Mizuhiki-themed dashboard for a modern and elegant appearance. On the driver side, there is a seven-inch display interface, an LCD monitor, and a USB Type C port. There is also a two-tier glovebox on the passenger side for ample storage.
In the middle, the gearshift sports a futuristic design that looks more like a mix of a jet plane’s center stick and a computer’s mouse, rather than a traditional knob. Furthermore, there is enough space to place a phone or wallet beside the gearshift.
The seats offer large armrests and plenty of leg room. At the back, the car has a spacious boot that can be expanded up to 670 liters when the rear seats are folded down.
