Ai Plus Nova 2 Pro 5G Overview

Performance and Software

Under the hood, the Ai Plus Nova 2 Pro 5G uses the mid-level MediaTek Dimensity 7100 chip built on a 6nm processor. This is the same chip that you might have seen in a recently launched phone like Tecno Pova Curve 2. So, everyday performance should not be a problem on this phone, while there are other options such as the CMF Phone 2 Pro, Infinix Note Edge, and Infinix Note 60.

Memory-wise, this phone comes with up to 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage that can be expanded up to 2TB using a microSD card if you run out of space in the coming days. On the software front, Ai Plus Nova 2 Pro 5G runs nxtQ OS on top of Android 16, which Ai Plus claims gives a better user experience in the long run.

Camera and Battery

For optics, the Ai Plus Nova 2 Pro 5G opts for a dual-camera setup with a 48MP f/1.8 Sony IMX582 sensor paired with an 8MP f/2.2 ultrawide lens on the back. Up front, you get a 13MP f/2.0 selfie cam for video calls and selfies. With this Ai Plus camera setup, you could comfortably record 2K 30 fps videos from both cams.

So, you can also expect decent camera performance in good daylight conditions, but night and low-light shots might not live up to expectations. But if you are really looking for good photography in a similar price bracket, the CMF Phone 2 Pro stands out with a triple-camera setup, though it was from last year.

In terms of battery, the Ai Plus Nova 2 Pro 5G uses the same 6,000mAh capacity as its sibling—the Ai Plus Nova 2 Neo 5 G. However, here you get better charging support with 33W fast charging to quickly charge your phone. Other than that, you also get Dual-band Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.4 for wireless connectivity.

Design and Display

In terms of design, the Ai Plus Nova 2 Pro 5G has a cleaner, sleeker look than its recently launched sibling. On the back panel of the phone, there is a vertically placed camera island housing two lenses, while the strip-shaped LED is placed separately inside. More interestingly, it has four light strips that can be customized for various tasks, such as calls and notifications.

Apart from this, it also has an IP65 rating against dust and water splashes, keeping this phone safe from accidental spills. Additionally, you will also get the option to choose from “Green”, “Red”, ”Pink", “Black” and “Blue” finishes.

Up front, the Ai Plus Nova 2 Pro 5G comes with a large 6.9-inch LCD screen that delivers FHD+ resolution to give decent visuals. You might not struggle with outdoor visibility on this phone, even when using it directly in sunlight, thanks to its 800-nit HBM mode. Besides this, it has a 144Hz refresh rate, which is one of the best in this price bracket for gaming and daily social media scrolling.
