Back in December 2022, the Wiko 5G (rebranded Huawei Nova 9 SE) was officially launched in China as a smartphone that supports the newer and faster bandwidth and runs on Huawei’s HarmonyOS. Now, it appears that a brand is working on another new 5G enabled handset. So here are all the details.

A new Wiko 5G device has recently passed through China’s TENAA certification website. For those unaware, every device sold in the region has to pass through this certification ahead of official release, so it is clear that the company is working on a new 5G smartphone. Unfortunately, finer details regarding this device like its specifications and pricing are still at large. Although, we know that is carries the model number GAR-AN00.

Furthermore, this device will run on HarmonyOS, which is Huawei’s proprietary operating system, and is approved to support 5G networking as well. The previous Wiko 5G model was equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 SoC, so it is possible that the next gen model will also feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon series SoC or maybe even a MediaTek Dimensity chip. It is unclear if this model will be a more expensive model compared to the Wiko 5G which is a mid range device.

This model sported a tall 6.78 inch LCD panel that has a Full HD+ resolution, a center aligned punch hole selfie camera, and a high 120Hz refresh rate. The device was powered by a 4,000mAh battery pack that supports 66W fast charging as well. The Wiko 5G was launched in China for 1,999 Yuan (roughly 290 US Dollars), so we can expect the next gen model to be around this same price point or possibly higher if its similar to a flagship grade device.
