Huawei announced the Nova 8 series of smartphones by the end of 2020. Several digital bloggers from China are claiming that the company could be working on the Nova 9 series. It is also being speculated that the Nova 9 lineup may debut between August to October.
It is speculated that the Nova 9 series will be similar to the Nova 8 lineup in terms of specifications and design. The Nova 8 came with an oval-shaped camera module that houses a main lens at the top and it was followed by other cameras.
There is a possibility that Nova 9 may have dual camera rings like the upcoming Huawei P50 series. The top ring may house the main lens, while the second ring may house the other lenses and an LED flash.
Leaked information that appeared in May claimed that the Nova 9 could be featuring the Kirin 990E, which was seen on the Mate 40E 5G phone. However, it is also being speculated that the Nova 9 lineup could be powered by 4G chips due to the chip shortage issue. In other words, the Nova 9 models may lack support for 5G connectivity.
Apart from the Nova 9 series, the company is also said to be working on the Huawei P50 series of smartphones. Recent reports have claimed that the P50, P50 Pro, and P50 Pro+ featuring the 5nm Kirin 9000 SoC may debut in July or August. Hopefully, newer reports will spill more information about the Nova 9 lineup and P50 series in the coming weeks.
