AI+ has officially expanded its lineup with the introduction of the AI+ Nova 2 Power 5G in the Indian market. Built primarily for users seeking extended endurance alongside reliable daily performance, the phone brings a massive 7,000mAh battery, a high-refresh-rate screen, and 5G capabilities.
Design and Build Quality
The smartphone showcases a dual-tone Color Fusion back panel design. Buyers can select from five distinct color variants: Blue Fusion, Golden Blue Fusion, Deep Purple, Midnight Black, and Ocean Green. On the rear, there is a rounded rectangular camera module housing dual rear sensors, an Aurora Ring, and an LED flash. For protection against everyday element exposure, the phone carries an IP65 rating for dust and splash resistance, alongside a side-mounted fingerprint scanner for biometric security.
Display and Performance
Up front, the Nova 2 Power 5G is equipped with a 6.75-inch IPS LCD panel offering HD+ resolution (1600 x 720 pixels). It features a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and reaches up to 450 nits in High Brightness Mode (HBM), ensuring comfortable indoor viewing, though outdoor visibility in direct sunlight may prove slightly challenging.
Under the hood, it relies on a MediaTek Dimensity 7100 processor—the same chipset seen in devices like the Tecno Pova Curve 2, whereas the Honor 600 Lite relies on a slightly higher version of the chip. The device is offered in configurations with up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of built-in storage. Storage can be expanded up to 1TB using a dedicated microSD card.
Cameras and Software
For photography, the AI+ Nova 2 Power 5G houses a dual rear camera system anchored by a 48MP Sony IMX582 primary sensor with an f/1.8 aperture, accompanied by an 8MP ultra-wide lens with an f/2.2 aperture. On the front, a 13MP sensor with an f/2.0 aperture handles selfies and video calls. On the software side, it runs NxtQuantum OS based on Android 16 and supports 5G connectivity along with Bluetooth 5.4.
Battery, Pricing, and Availability in Nepal
The highlight of the phone is its massive 7,000mAh battery, which supports 33W wired fast charging and reverse charging support. In India, the base 6GB/128GB model is priced at INR 16,999, while the 8GB/128GB variant costs INR 17,999 via Flipkart, with sales kicking off on September 24. Should the smartphone arrive in the Nepali market, the starting price for the AI+ Nova 2 Power 5G in Nepal is expected to be around NPR 32,999.
