Huawei Nova 4 is getting a new variant in China. In addition to the newly announced Huawei Nova 4e smartphone, the Chinese tech giant on Thursday unveiled a new storage variant for the Nova 4 smartphone. The new 6GB RAM + 128GB storage version will be joining the company’s two already available Nova 4 variants with 8GB RAM + 128GB storage. The first 8GB variant packs a 48-megapixel primary camera sensor on the back, whereas the other 8GB variant comes with just 20-megapixel primary sensor.
