Huawei's next nova Flip could switch to a wide form factor

Huawei launched the nova Flip S in China back in October last year, and it was mostly the nova Flip with new colors, a lower price, and a different chipset. Its successor is rumored to be a much bigger change, though.

Today, a tipster on Weibo claims that Huawei plans to refresh its nova Flip lineup next year with a small wide foldable that has a 6.3-inch screen. It will reportedly be powered by an unspecified Kirin 9-series chipset, which would be a big step up from the Kirin 8030 inside the nova Flip S.

If that screen size sounds kind of familiar, it's because the Pura X has a 6.39-inch inner display with a 16:10 aspect ratio. A little bit bigger, but not by much. Back in July, Digital Chat Station said Huawei will release a new small wide foldable next year, and we assumed that meant a Pura X sequel. It may very well be a nova Flip instead. Or both? Time will tell.
