Huawei has announced the Nova 8 Pro 4G in China. The Nova 8 Pro 4G is reminiscent of the Nova 8 Pro 5G that was launched in December last year. However, despite arriving with support for 4G connectivity, this model comes with several improvements over the 5G variant.

Huawei Nova 8 Pro 4G features a 6.72-inch OLED screen with a FullHD+ resolution of 2676 x 1236 pixels. The display supports a 120Hz refresh rate as against 90Hz which the 5G version supports. The device retains the Kirin 985 chipset paired with 8GB of RAM. It arrives with two storage options 128GB and 256GB.

For photography, there is a quad-camera setup at the back housed at the rear. The sensors include a 64MP main shooter teaming up with an 8MP ultrawide, 2MP depth sensor, and a 2MP macro camera. For selfies, the Nova 8 Pro 4G packs 16MP wide and 32MP ultrawide sensors housed in a pill-shaped module.

The Nova 8 Pro 4G packs a rear-mounted fingerprint reader for biometric authentication. There is equally a 4000mAh battery under the hood to keep the lights on. The battery charges via a USB-C port and supports 66W charging. The device indeed bundles a 66W charger which can charge from 0-60% in just 15 minutes and to full charge in 35 minutes.
