It seems that an HONOR smartphone after splitting with Huawei has been spotted on TENAA, which suggests that it might be a rebranded Huawei nova 8 SE, which was unveiled in China not too long ago. While not much is known in regards to the Malaysia release date, this gives us a better idea on what to expect when the device is officially unveiled globally.

Today, Huawei has unveiled a brand new nova 8 SE in China as advertised. Most of the tech specs and features that were leaked out before the launch turned out to be true as well, but there are two variants based on chipsets. The standard version is using a MediaTek Dimensity 800U, whereas the other sports a Dimensity 720 chipset.

It seems that a tech spec sheet regarding the Huawei nova 8 SE has recently been spotted on weibo, giving us a better idea on what to expect when the smartphone is officially launched on 5 November 2020. Based on what is shown on the spec sheet, it seems that depending on the variant, the Huawei nova 8 SE will come equipped with either a Dimensity 800U or Dimensity 720 chipset.

Previously, it was reported that the Huawei Mate 40 series and Nova 8 series would be unveiled before the end of 2020. Now that the Mate 40 series has made the debut, we have gotten confirmation that the Nova 8 SE is coming soon on this week thanks to an official poster.

Last week, it was rumoured that Huawei had plans to launch the Nova 8 series soon. It seems that the Nova 8 SE could be included in that launch. Sources have unveiled renders and some specs of the phone earlier today, plus the claim that it will be launched soon.

The HUAWEI Nova series is loved by many as it offers high-end specs but still comes with affordable price tags. In April, the Nova 7 series arrived with three devices namely Nova 7 SE, Nova 7, and Nova 7 Pro. Right after few months, the Nova 8 series has already come into the picture with a few rumours. It is claimed that the upcoming Nova series will ditch Kirin chipsets and rely on MediaTek's Dimensity chipsets.
