If you like the design of the Huawei P10 and P10 Plus, but don't need such power phone, check the latest Nova smartphones. The Chinese company has just updated its mid-range Nova lineup with two new phones, the Nova 2 and Nova 2 Plus, which have received major update over their predecessors.

The two phones look the same and are fairly similar to the P10 lineup, with 6.9mm metal bodies and antenna on top and bottom. The Plus variant is larger, thus packing bigger battery, more RAM and storage memory as well as a better front camera.
The Huawei Nova 2 costs CNY 2,500 ($360), while the Nova 2 Plus is CNY 2,900 ($420. Sales start on June 16.
