After the notch the hole in the display seems to become the new trend. Soon the first smartphones with a camera hole in the display will be launched. In four days from now Samsung will introduce the Galaxy A8s with an Infinity-O display. Just one week later, on December 17, 2018 Huawei will follow with the release of the Nova 4.

Huawei Nova 4 smartphone with 91.8% screen-to-body ratio

Last week the Chinese manufacturer already spread a teaser which unveiled the camera hole in the display. Today CNET en Español was able to obtain some exclusive pictures of the Huawei Nova 4. The hole is barely noticeable when the screen is off or when a black screen background is used. However, with a light background the hole will be clearly visible.

The new Huawei smartphone sports a 6.4-inch (1440×2880) display and an impressive screen-to-body ratio of 91.8%. The Huawei Nova 4 is likely to be powered by the Kirin 980 chipset. This 7nm processor was used for the first time in the Mate 20 series, which were introduced last month. The phone is expected to come with 6GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage. Like the Mate 20 Pro, the Nova 4 will probably come with an in-display fingerprint scanner. Apparently there will be a 4,000 mAh battery onboard.

Huawei will launch the Nova 4 on December 17, 2018 in Asia. Next month, the smartphone will also make its debut in the USA at CES 2019. The Huawei Nova 4 will likely carry a price tag of about $400 – $500 USD.

Huawei Nova 4 test results from Geekbench

Beginning of this week Samsung launched the Galaxy A8s, as the world’s first smartphone with a camera-hole in the display. Samsung won’t be able to hold the lead for a long time, as Huawei is expected to launch the Huawei Nova 4 (VCE-AL100) in just three days from now. This mid-range smartphone also has a punch hole front-camera.

A Geekbench test gives us more insight about the performance of Huawei’s new phone. The benchmark was first spotted by our Dutch friends MobielKopen and unveil the Nova 4 will be powered by the 1.84Ghz octa-core Hisilicon Kirin 970 processor with 8GB of RAM – and not the newer Kirin 980, as was expected by many. The Huawei Nova 4 runs on Android 9.0 Pie. The Nova 4 reaches a multi-core score of 6380 and a single-core score of 1761.

The Huawei Nova 4 is expected to be equipped with a 6.41-inch LCD display with Full HD+ resolution.  In addition, the phone comes with a 3.900mAh battery, a triple rear-camera and 128GB of storage. Huawei will launch the smartphone on a special event in China on December 17, 2018.
