Huawei‘s South African website has quietly listed a new smartphone, the Nova Y72 with a “coming soon” tag. From the looks, the Nova Y72 appears to be a rebranded version of the Enjoy 70 smartphone, which Huawei launched in China last December.

Despite the changes, the Nova Y72 is technically the successor of the Nova Y71 for the international market. Let’s get into its details here.

Huawei Nova Y72 overview

The Nova Y72 shares much of its design aspects with the Enjoy 70. It features a rectangular camera setup on the back, a U-shaped notch on the front, and a dedicated X button for quick app access.

Huawei hasn’t shared much about the phone’s specifications yet. However, but based on its Chinese counterpart, we can expect a 6.75-inch HD+ display (720 x 1600 pixels) with a standard 60Hz refresh rate. 

Powering the phone is likely the Kirin 710A chipset, a three-year-old processor that only supports 4G network connectivity.

On the plus side, the phone boasts a sizeable 6,000mAh battery, the same as the Enjoy 70. The camera setup is also expected to be identical, featuring a 50MP main sensor alongside a secondary lens. Likewise, the phone will come pre-installed with Huawei’s EMUI custom Android interface. 

Huawei has revealed the Nova Y72 in Green and Black color options, with an initial price tag of ZAR 4,999, which is roughly $265. The specific memory configurations for the device haven’t been disclosed yet, but we expect more details about the smartphone to come out soon.

Additionally, Huawei will be sweetening the deal by including a complimentary gift with the purchase of the Nova Y72. Buyers will receive a neckband and, as indicated in the teaser, likely a lamp valued at ZAR 1,798.
