Huawei has scheduled an event on April 23 to launch the Nova 7 series. Like any other smartphone, it is being leaked ahead of its official release. Even the company itself posted a teaser video revealing the design. Now, a new set of images of Huawei Nova 7 with Mirror Grey finish has emerged on Weibo comparing with it with a  Pink colour variant of Huawei P40 Pro.

These comparison shots were posted by a user called Song Jingting on Weibo. This is the same Huawei Nova 7 Mirror Grey variant, which was leaked a couple of days back exposing not only the design but also the specifications of the smartphone.

All the three will have support for 5G connectivity and will run EMUI 10.1 based on Android 10 out of the box.

As for other specs, the Nova 7 and Nova 7 Pro will sport OLED panels, whereas the cheaper Nova 7 SE will come with an LCD panel. The first two models are confirmed to feature a quad-camera setup but optics on the low-end variant are unknown. Anyway, all of them will have a punch-hole camera on the front for selfies and video calls.

The post Huawei Nova 7, 7 SE, 7 Pro likely to debut on April 23 appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Huawei Nova 7 series is expected to be announced next month. At least three phones are expected – the Nova 7 SE which should be the second phone with the new Kirin 820 5G chipset; the Nova 7; and the Nova 7 Pro with all having support for 5G.

The Nova 7 and Nova 7 Pro should have the Kirin 990 5G chipsets but the latest reports say the Nova 7 may actually come with a different processor – a new chipset to be unveiled soon called the Kirin 985.

Of course, this is not the first time we have heard of the Kirin 985. Prior to the launch of the Kirin 990 and Kirin 990 5G, it was reported that Huawei was working on a processor called the Kirin 985 and that it would power the P30 series but that didn’t happen. It was then reported that it would launch in the second half of 2019 but that too didn’t happen.

A Chinese blogger posted a few days ago on Weibo that the Kirin 985 (name might be changed) is coming.

Going by previous knowledge of the chipset, it may be built using the 7nm+ EUV lithography process and will be paired with the Balong 5000 modem. With respect to performance, it should be more powerful than the Kirin 820 5G.

Huawei Central reported that the chipset may power the Nova 7 Pro too but seeing as the Nova 6 5G is powered by a Kirin 990 chipset, and the Kirin 985 is not going to be more powerful than it (Kirin 990), it makes no sense to use the Kirin 985 in the Nova 7 Pro.

The Nova 7 series launch is drawing closer. Two of the phones in the series – the Nova 7 Pro and Nova 7 – have been spotted at TENAA. While the full spec sheet remains unknown, TENAA does reveal that the two devices have 5G support.

According to the agency, the Nova 7 has model number JEF-AN00 while the Nova 7 Pro’s model number is JER-AN10. The two phones support NSA and SA 5G networks. The two phones are expected to come with the Kirin 990 5G chipset powering them based on a leak from last month.

The Nova 7 phones will also support 40W fast charging according to a 3C certification page. We expect the complete specifications of the two phones will be published in a few days by TENAA.

Huawei is also expected to announce a Nova 7 SE which may come with the new Kirin 820 5G chipset. The chipset has been confirmed to power the soon-to-be-announced Honor 30S.

There is no specific launch date for the phones yet but April seems like the best bet.

Back in December 2019, Huawei launched the Nova 6. So naturally, after the launch of the base variant, the Pro variant or the Nova 6 Pro should arrive next. However, a new report suggests that the Chinese tech giant is skipping the higher end version and directly launching the next entry in the series, the Huawei Nova 7.

The information was shared by a known blogger on Weibo, the popular Chinese microblogging website. Going by the history of his previous releases, there is a chance that the information is accurate but we will have to wait for an official company announcement for any confirmation. According to the leak, the Huawei Nova 7 will be released in early April 2020.

This puts it right after the launch of the company’s flagship P40 series, as stated in the post. Huawei is planning on unveiling the P40 series in Paris, France on 26th March 2020, while its Chinese launch is expected to arrive in the first week of April (around 2nd April 2020 according to the blogger). Immediately after this, the Nova 7 is expected to be launched. This would mark a relatively close release interval between the Nova 6 and the upcoming entry; just a 4 month gap between the two.

Furthermore, the Nova 7 series is likely to arrive with Huawei’s proprietary chipset, the Kirin 990 SoC, which is a 5G enabled processor. Unfortunately, finer details like the smartphone’s specifications are still unknown, but teaser’s from Huawei should be seen in the coming next few weeks. So stay tuned for more coverage on the Huawei Nova 7 series.
