Earlier this month, we had reported on a leak that claimed that Huawei is planning on launching a new smartphone series in China later this month. Now, an official announcement has confirmed that the Hi Nova 10 lineup will be launching on 20th October 2022.
As per official notes, the new devices from the Hi Nova 10 series include the base Hi Nova 10 and the Hi Nova 10 Pro variant. For those unaware, the Chinese tech giant had launched the Nova 10 and Nova 10 Pro earlier this year. However, due to the ongoing sanctions and restrictions, both handsets will be 4G only models. But now, the company is releasing the Hi Nova 10 series as the 5G enabled upgraded models. The Hi Nova 10 and Hi Nova 10 Pro will support 5G networking and are expected to have similar features as the Nova 10 lineup.
Based on earlier leaks, both models will support 5G, but the base model will come with 66W fast charging. On the other hand, the Pro variant will reportedly feature an impressive 100W fast charging support. Furthermore, the sale for the Hi Nova 10 will begin around 29th October 2022. The Nova 10 Pro model sports a 6.78 inch OLED display that has a 120Hz refresh rate and 2652 x 1200px resolution.
The front will also house a 60 megapixel front facing camera, while the entire Nova 10 series is equipped with the 4G Qualcomm Snapdragon 778 SoC. Since the Hi Nova 10 series is capable of 5G networking, it is unclear which processor will power the Hi Nova 10 and Hi Nova 10 Pro models. But stick around for more updates since we will be covering the launch event.
