As part of its jampacked APAC launch, Huawei introduced the new nova 8i, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 SoC, an unexpected shift from the brand’s Kirin SoCs.
The nova 8i has a 6.67-inch FHD+ TFT LCD and packs 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It runs EMUI 11 on top of Android 10 and houses a 4,300mAh battery with 66W Huawei SuperCharge support.
For optics, you get a 64MP high-res lens, an 8MP ultra-wide unit, and a pair of 2MP sensors for macro and depth. At the front is a 16MP snapper.
