Huawei recently introduced its latest flagship phone series, the Pura 70, in China. However, reports suggest that the company will soon turn its attention to the upcoming Nova 13 lineup, which is anticipated to be launched in June in its domestic market. An established leaker from China has provided insights into what consumers can expect from the Nova 13 Pro and Nova 13 Ultra models.
Pura 70 Series Transition to Nova 13 Lineup
The Huawei Pura 70 series is priced starting at 5,499 Yuan ($780) in China, catering to those seeking more affordable flagship phones priced around 3,000 Yuan ($415). This shift to the Nova 13 series is likely to attract Huawei enthusiasts looking for cost-effective flagship devices.
Key Features of Nova 13 Pro and Nova 13 Ultra
Sources indicate that the Huawei Nova 13 Pro and Nova 13 Ultra may be powered by the same flagship Kirin chip found in the Pura 70 series, specifically the Kirin 9010 SoC. These new models are expected to inherit Huawei's XMAGE imaging branding, known for its performance and quality enhancements. Compared to the Nova 12 lineup, the Nova 13 series is anticipated to bring improvements in performance, durability, and imaging capabilities, promising an enriched user experience.
Advanced Specifications and Features
An additional leaker, Smart Pikachu, has suggested that the Nova 13 series will be equipped with the Kirin 9010 chipset, supporting advanced features like a curved screen for most models, a 1.5K resolution, dual front-facing cameras for improved selfie photography, and 5G connectivity across the lineup. The series is also expected to run on HarmonyOS Next, offering variable aperture for the primary camera, a periscope telephoto camera, and satellite connectivity support. The anticipated debut for the Nova 13 series is set toward the end of the second quarter of this year.
