Enter the HUAWEI Nova 8

After much buzz during the week, the Huawei Nova 8 smartphone is official. It was launched in a spectacular Blush Gold colour, and features a thin and light frame, weighing only 169g. The rear features its universe-inspired Nebular design for its camera layout. It sits elegantly atop the glass rear panel.

It has a 6.57″ OLED screen with an FHD+ display at 2340x1080px resolution. It is powered by Huawei’s own Kirin 820E chipset, which has a Hexa-core design. This includes x3 Cortex-A76 Based 2.22GHz and x3 Cortex-A55 1.84GHz CPUs. The chipset is rounded off with the Mali-G57 GPU with 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.

The quad-lens camera on the Nova 8 features a 64MP high-resolution main camera. This is supported by an 8MP Ultra-Wide Angle Camera (f/2.4 aperture), 2MP Depth Camera (f/2.4 aperture) and 2MP Macro Camera (f/2.4 aperture). The camera setup features crystal-clear quality during the day and even at night. And for those who love selfies, it sports a 32MP front-facing camera.

As with its premium range, it offers 66W HUAWEI SuperCharge support. This means that you can charge your Nova 8 smartphone up to 60% in just 15 minutes, and 100% in 35.

The second of the smartphones launched on the night is the Huawei Nova Y60. It was designed for users who are passionate about taking stunning photos and easily sharing them to social media. It sports a competent triple-lens camera, which is powered by AI to produce the best results.
