According to a recent report from Weibo leakster, @菊厂影业Fans, the Huawei nova 9 series will be official sometime in September. The report further claims that this device will have 5G capabilities. Due to well-known reasons, Huawei’s recently launched P50 series only supports 4G networks. Although this series uses the Kirin 9000 and Snapdragon 888, it only supports a 4G network. Just like the Huawei P5o series, the Huawei nova 9 will only support the 4G network. The 5G capabilities will be available but will not be active. This means that the 5G chip on the nova 9 series will only function as a 4G chip.
Previously, Huawei’s consumer business CEO, Yu Chengdong, has explained the entire situation. According to him,. the company had to face four separate rounds of bans from the U.S. As a result, it has some restrictions in terms of using 5G chips. This is why its 5G chips are only working as 4G. However, Yu Chengdong also pointed out that through 4G+WiFi 6, Huawei can also bring a good communication experience in most usage scenarios.

There are speculations that the design of the nova 9 series will continue the trend of the nova 8 series. This series will come with multiple camera sensors in an oval-shaped block. Unfortunately, there is no information about the resolution of the sensors at the moment.

The official presentation of the new products will take place next quarter – in August or September. However, it is also possible that the announcement will be delayed until the beginning of the fourth quarter – October.
