Huawei is preparing to launch the Nova Flip, and today, the clamshell’s specifications surfaced online. Leakster Digital Chat Station revealed that the new phone will feature a 6.94-inch foldable screen – the largest panel on the market, which is also seen in the Huawei Pocket 2.
The phone is also coming with a Kirin 9000 series chip – this could be the Kirin 9000S from the Nova 12 Ultra or the Kirin 9010 from the Pura 70 series, or it could even be a new SoC.
The phone has already been used by various influencers in China, and its first images have surfaced on Weibo.

The main shooter will be a 50 MP RYYB sensor that is 1/1.56” large and has a f/1.9 aperture on the front. The second camera is an 8 MP ultra-wide snapper that will also work as a super macro cam for close-up shots. The front-facing camera will be a 32 MP one behind a punch hole.

The phone will have a 4,400 mAh battery that supports 66W wired charging. Interestingly, this is actually a downgrade compared to Huawei’s previous clamshell Pocket 2. We’ll have to wait and see if the Nova Flip will offer any other type of charging – wireless, reverse wireless or reverse wired.
