Huawei Nova 8 Pro 5G is a much-needed upgrade to the base model Nova 8 smartphone, which gets a refreshed design and more powerful internals. You still get the same plastic body and frame construction, which helps reduce cost and save weight while providing protection against fall damage and scratches. The display and rear panel are curved around the sides to make it easier to hold while also minimizing the bezels. You get two selfie cameras in the front that are placed inside a pill-shaped cutout on the top left, while the fingerprint sensor is hidden underneath the display. The rear camera module is also placed in a large and wide pill-shaped camera array that hosts the quad-sensor unit.
