Alongside the Nova 15, Huawei has officially launched the Nova 15 Pro and Nova 15 Ultra smartphones in China, positioning them as premium mid-range devices with a strong focus on imaging and AI features.

Nova 15 Pro & Ultra Specifications

Both the Nova 15 Pro and Ultra feature a 6.84-inch OLED flat display with a resolution of 2856×1320 pixels, 10.7 billion colors, and P3 wide color gamut. The panel supports 1-120Hz LTPO adaptive refresh rate and reaches up to 4000 nits peak brightness. The Ultra version adds 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming and enhanced Kunlun Glass protection with anti-reflective treatment. Huawei has also integrated AI HDR and dynamic eye-care features across both models.

Both devices are powered by Huawei’s in-house Kirin 9010S chipset and run HarmonyOS 6. The company claims an 18% performance boost over the previous generation, with improved system fluency and gaming frame rate stability enabled by HarmonyOS-level hardware-software optimization.

In terms of camera specs, both phones debut Huawei’s Dual Red Maple Imaging system. On the front, they use a 50MP ultra-sensing portrait camera paired with a Red Maple multispectral sensor, supporting 4K video recording and AIS stabilization.

The rear camera setup on the Nova 15 Ultra features three 50MP RYYB sensors: a main camera with a physical variable aperture (f/1.4-f/4.0) and OIS, a 50MP periscope telephoto with 3.7x optical and 100x digital zoom, and a 50MP ultra-wide macro shooter. It also features a 1.5MP Red Maple color sensor that enhances color reproduction. The Pro model swaps out the periscope lens for a 12MP telephoto portrait camera and uses a 13MP ultra-wide macro sensor. It also drops the variable aperture from the main lens.

Both models house a 6500mAh silicon-based battery. They support 100W wired Huawei SuperCharge Turbo 3. The Ultra model adds 50W wireless charging and 7.5W reverse wireless charging.

The Nova 15 Ultra includes dual satellite communication capabilities (Beidou image messaging and Tiantong voice), IP68 and IP69 water and dust resistance, stereo speakers with Audio Vivid certification, and advanced call noise reduction. It also supports NearLink digital car keys and lossless audio transmission up to 4.6Mbps. The Pro model skips satellite voice communication, offers IP65 protection, and lacks wireless charging. Both phones support Wi-Fi 7+, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC, USB-C, and multi-band GNSS positioning.

The Nova 15 Pro is priced from 3,499 yuan ($490) for the 256GB variant. The 256GB Kunlun Glass version costs 3,599 yuan ($504), while the 512GB Kunlun Glass model is priced at 3,899 yuan ($546).

The post Huawei Nova 15 Pro & Ultra debut with Kirin 9010S, 6.84″ LTPO OLED 6500mAh battery & satellite features appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Huawei Nova 15 series is set to debut in China on Dec. 22, and ahead of the official launch, Huawei has revealed several key details about the upcoming lineup. The company has confirmed the presence of three models and showcased their exterior styling, color choices and storage configurations. While the complete hardware details remain under wraps, the early reveals put strong emphasis on design changes and visual identity. Here is a closer look at what has been disclosed so far.

Huawei Nova 15 series design and colour options revealed

Huawei has listed the Nova 15, Nova 15 Pro and Nova 15 Ultra on its official store, offering a clear view of their final designs. The standard Nova 15 sticks to a familiar look that closely resembles its predecessor, featuring a single punch-hole display and a simpler rear camera layout. This approach keeps the base model visually consistent with earlier Nova phones.

The Nova 15 Pro and Nova 15 Ultra, however, mark a noticeable design shift. Both models adopt a horizontally aligned camera matrix, a first for the Nova lineup, giving them a more distinctive appearance. The Nova 15 Ultra goes a step further with a dual circular camera ring layout, enhancing visual symmetry and recognition. Official posters also hint at a metal middle frame on the Ultra, suggesting a more premium in-hand feel compared to earlier generations.

Across all three models, Huawei is offering four colour options: Dynamic Green, Easy Match Purple, Zero Degree White and Phantom Night Black. The green and purple variants feature a striped rear panel finish, making them stand out with a more vibrant and youthful look, while the white and black options keep things understated and clean.

Huawei Nova 15 series configurations

The Nova 15 and Nova 15 Pro will be available with 12GB+256GB and 12GB+512GB options. Reports have revealed that these devices will be powered by the Kirin 8020 chipset.

The Nova 15 Ultra adds a higher-end 12GB+1TB variant alongside the same base configurations. It is speculated to feature the Kirin 9010S or 9020A chip. All three phones are already listed on Huawei’s official store and will open for pre-orders today, ahead of their formal launch on December 22.

Huawei Nova 15 series news has finally moved beyond speculation. After weeks of leaks and mixed timelines, Huawei has now confirmed that the Nova 15 lineup is ready to debut in China. The brand has released official teaser images that give a first look at the design while also locking in the launch window. While these visuals do not reveal full specifications, they clearly indicate that Huawei is preparing a noticeable update to its popular Nova range.

Huawei Nova 15 series launch date

Huawei has confirmed that the Nova 15 series will launch in China on Dec. 22. At present, there is no clarity on whether these phones will be introduced in global markets or remain China-exclusive.

The official image reveals a redesigned rear camera layout for the Nova 15 Ultra. The phone features a rectangular camera module that houses two separate circular sections. One circle contains the three rear cameras, while the second circle accommodates the LED flash along with the “XD Portrait” branding, giving the device a more distinctive and premium visual identity. Likely, the other Nova 15 models may sport the same design language.

Huawei Nova 15 series: What’s known so far?

According to leaks, the Nova lineup will include three models: Nova 15, Nova 15 Pro, and Nova 15 Ultra. The standard Nova 15 is expected to feature a 6.7-inch display, while the Pro model could arrive with a larger 6.84-inch screen. Both are tipped to use 1.5K LTPO OLED panels for smoother visuals and improved efficiency.

According to tipster Bald Panda, both the Nova 15 and Nova 15 Pro are expected to be powered by the Kirin 8020 chipset. The Nova 15 Ultra, however, may use a more powerful Kirin 9010S processor, with a Kirin 9020A also mentioned as a possible alternative.

The Nova 15 Pro may come with a dual front camera setup featuring 50-megapixel and 8-megapixel sensors, while the standard model could stick to a single 50-megapixel front camera. On the rear, the Pro variant is said to include a 50-megapixel main camera, a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, an ultra-wide camera, and a multispectral sensor for better colour accuracy. All three models are said to pack a 5,700mAh battery.

The post Huawei Nova 15 series launch date officially confirmed, brand-new design revealed appeared first on Gizmochina.

Huawei is barely done showing off the Mate 80 series, and rumors about what’s next from the brand are already starting to surface online.

Tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo has shared possible specs for the upcoming Huawei Nova 15 lineup, and it looks like three models are in the works: the Huawei Nova 15, Nova 15 Pro, and Nova 15 Ultra.

Nova 15 / Nova 15 Pro

The base Nova 15 will reportedly sport a 6.7-inch screen, while the Nova 15 Pro is said to feature a slightly larger 6.84-inch panel. Both phones are expected to use 1.5K LTPO OLED displays.

The Pro model may also include a dual front-camera setup consisting of 50MP and 8MP sensors. The base model will likely stick to a single 50MP unit.

On the back, the Nova 15 Pro is expected to feature a 50MP main camera, a 50MP periscope telephoto lens, and an additional ultra-wide camera. Digital Chat Station also mentions a “multispectral sensor,” which Huawei often uses to improve color accuracy and low-light performance.

Lastly, both the standard and Pro versions are reportedly powered by new Kirin 8-series chips.

Nova 15 Ultra

The Nova 15 Ultra is, of course, the headline device. It’s expected to use a more powerful Kirin 9-series chip and a larger 1/1.3-inch 50MP main sensor. Although the tipster doesn’t mention it, it’s safe to assume the Ultra will also get a periscope, an ultra-wide lens, and the multispectral sensor at the very least.

All three models are tipped to pack batteries exceeding 6,000mAh.

As for the launch, the series is rumored to debut before China’s Spring Festival, which typically falls in February, meaning an early 2026 release.

Multiple reports have claimed that Huawei will announce the Mate 80 series and the Mate X7 foldable phone this month (November) in China. It is also being said that the brand may unveil the Nova 15 series in December in the country. However, a new update suggests that the company will not launch the Nova 15 lineup this year.

According to a Chinese tech blogger, Huawei’s upcoming Mate lineup, which includes the Mate 80 series and the Mate X7 foldable, is ready for launch. He also mentioned that the Nova 15 series is unlikely to launch in December.

This revised timeline suggests the company is prioritizing resources toward ensuring sufficient production capacity and promotional support for the Mate range, which remains its core premium line.

As per reports, the Nova 15 lineup will include multiple models, including the top-of-the-line Nova 15 Ultra. Reports have revealed that the device will feature a 50-megapixel main camera backed by a 1/1.3-inch large sensor, a 13-megapixel ultra-wide lens, a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera, and a dedicated multispectral sensor.

The Nova 15 Ultra is expected to feature a Kirin chipset and run on HarmonyOS 6. It could be equipped with a 6,500mAh battery that supports 100W charging. It is also expected to come with other features such as satellite connectivity, a metal middle frame, and an IP68/69-rated dust and water-resistant chassis.

Apart from the Ultra model, the lineup is also expected to include the Huawei Nova 15 and Nova 15 Pro.
