Huawei unveils Nova 14 Vitality Edition with 50 MP selfie and main camera at mid-range price
The new Huawei Nova 14 Vitality Edition is essentially a slightly cheaper variant of the Nova 14, which primarily omits the telephoto camera. The mid-range smartphone is relatively thin and light, measuring just 7.2 millimeters thick and weighing 191 grams. However, the casing is only IP65 certified and so not fully waterproof.
The pill-shaped camera module on the back houses two LED flashes, alongside a 50 MP f/1.9 main camera based on a 1/1.56-inch sensor, which is accompanied by an 8 MP f/2.2 ultra-wide-angle camera with macro mode. A multi-channel color temperature sensor ensures accurate white balance. The 50 MP f/2.4 selfie camera is based on a 1/2.5-inch sensor. Huawei has installed a 6.7-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2,412 x 1,084 and a refresh rate of 120 Hz.
A PWM frequency of 2,160 Hz ensures that the display does not flicker at low brightness, thus protecting the user's eyes. The battery has a capacity of 5,500 mAh and is charged via USB-C with up to 66 watts. The fingerprint sensor is located on the side of the power button. The Huawei Nova 14 Vitality Edition supports GPS, NFC, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, including support for Sony LDAC and L2HC.
Price and availability
The Huawei Nova 14 Vitality Edition will launch in China with 256 GB of storage for 2,149 yuan (approx. $302) or with 512 GB of storage for 2,449 yuan (approx. $344). Details on an international launch are still pending.
