Confirmed: HUAWEI Nova 4 with circular camera cutout set for December 17 launch
August 19, 2025
TheHUAWEI Nova 4has been teased by the Chinese company for a couple of weeks now, featuring a circular camera cutout instead of the dreaded notch. Fortunately, it looks like the teasing won’t be going on for too long.
Huaweirevealed a December 17 launch date for the device on itsWeibo account(as spotted byMySmartPrice). This means the company is likely going to be first to launch a phone with the unique camera cutout.
We don’t know much else about the new phone, save for aleaked imagewhich purportedly showed aheadphone jack. The Nova phones usually pack mid- to upper mid-range specifications, so don’t be surprised if aKirin 710orKirin 980chipset is in the HUAWEI Nova 4.
The Nova 3 sports two selfie cameras, but the Nova 4’s circular camera cutout seems rather tiny. So we’d expect HUAWEI’s new phone to only offer a solitary selfie camera. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, as Google shows us there’s still plenty you’re able to do with asingle camera.
HUAWEI isn’t the only company set to launch a phone with a circular camera cutout, as Samsungrevealedits take on the technology last month (calling it an Infinity-O Display). Additionally, serial Samsung tipster Ice Universe reckons that theGalaxy A8swill be the first Samsung phone with the technology.
More recently, aleaked videohas apparently shown off aLenovophone with a circular camera cutout too. And with aspateofsliderphonesin recent months, it looks like the mobile industry is desperately looking for alternatives to the notch.
