Huawei has just introduced the Huawei nova 11 series in China comprised of the nova 11, nova 11 Pro, and nova 11 Ultra.
The Huawei nova 11 series comes with Kunlun Glass editions which come with a higher price but better protection. As they are introduced in China, they also run on HarmonyOS 3. Additionally, they have a Snapdragon 778G 4G chipset at the helm.

Huawei nova 11 Pro and nova 11 Ultra
The more powerful devices in the Huawei nova 11 series – the nova 11 Pro and nova 11 Ultra, on the other hand, share a majority of their specs albeit with the Ultra device featuring two-way satellite messaging via Beidou.
The two are built around a 6.78-inch FHD+ curved OLED panel with the same 60MP main front sensor but this time joined by an 8MP lens up front.
Around the back, they have a 50MP main RYYB sensor along with an 8MP ultra-wide lens and temperature sensor.
Unique to the Ultra though is the variable aperture lens on its main sensor. This allows the main sensor to range from f/1.4 to f/4.0 aperture depending on the lighting. It is the first midrange smartphone to offer this.
The two devices both share 4500mAh batteries and support for 100W Huawei Super Fast Charge.
