Huawei nova 14 Ultra debuts with 50MP periscope, nova 14 and 14 Pro follow

As expected, Huawei unveiled its nova 14 series smartphones in China today. Like last year, we get a total of three new nova phones with the nova 14 Ultra standing out from the pack. It is armed with a 50MP periscope camera, an LTPO 3.0 OLED and up to 1TB storage. As usual with Huawei releases, there’s no info on the chipset used in any of the three new phones.

The Ultra model gets the fancier specs, including a 6.81-inch quad curved OLED with FHD+ resolution and an adaptive 1-120Hz refresh rate. This is an LTPO 3.0 panel, and Huawei claims it offers improvements in power consumption. It also features Kunlun glass protection and offers up to 5,500 nits peak local brightness.

The back houses a trio of cameras alongside a spectral sensor for color data. There’s a 50MP main shooter with a variable f/1.4 – f/4.0 aperture and OIS, alongside a 13MP ultrawide and the previously mentioned 50MP periscope with 3.7x optical zoom. All three sensors are of the RYYB variety.
