Honor is not the only Chinese manufacturer launching a phone this month in Europe. Its former parent company, Huawei, is also bringing two new phones to the old continent. These devices are the Nova 8i and the Nova 9.
The launch of the Nova 8i and Nova 9 in Europe is actually quite interesting based on the fact that the Honor 50 Lite coming to Europe is based on the Nova 8i while the Honor 50 is slightly different from the Nova 9.
According to Winfuture.de, the Nova 8i is already listed on the Huawei Italia website. The phone will be available in a single configuration with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage for €349. For that price, you get a phone with a 6.67-inch FHD+ IPS LCD display, a Snapdragon 662 processor, 64MP quad rear cameras, 16MP selfie camera, 4300mAh battery, and 66W fast charging.
The Nova 9 was launched in China in September and will also be coming to Europe for €549.99. The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 778G chipset but unlike the Honor 50 which has the same SoC, Huawei’s own phone doesn’t have 5G.
The display is a 6.57-inch FHD+ OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. The variant coming to Europe has 8GB of RAM and 128GB of non-expandable storage. On the back are quad cameras – a 50MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultrawide angle camera, a 2MP depth camera, and a 2MP macro camera. The Honor 50 has a similar configuration but swaps the 50MP camera for a 108MP one. The front-facing camera is a 32MP sensor and there is an under-display fingerprint scanner. It has a 4300mAh battery and supports 67W fast charging.
