Camera improvements are also expected, including a new multi-spectral sensor and a 12MP telephoto lens, similar to the Nova 13 Pro. These upgrades aim to enhance imaging capabilities, building on the success of its predecessor’s 50MP variable aperture cameras and 60MP selfie lenses.

The nova 14 series will run HarmonyOS 5, which promises a 30 percent smoother user interface and over 15,000 native apps. The operating system introduces the "Ark Engine" for improved performance and an AI-powered Celia assistant for better multitasking and cross-device synchronization.

Pricing is expected to start at around CNY 3,000 (around PHP 23.1K), positioning the nova 14 as a strong contender in the mid-range segment. Meanwhile, rumor suggests the Ultra model could rival devices like the vivo V50, however, global availability remains uncertain. 

The official launch will confirm whether HUAWEI's latest AI and camera enhancements can solidify its position in the competitive smartphone market.
