Huawei quietly added the nova 14 Lite — also marketed as the Vitality Edition — to its nova 14 family, unveiling a leaner model that keeps many headline features while trimming a few corners to hit a lower price point.
Big screen, balanced battery and a smooth display
The nova 14 Lite packs a 6.7-inch OLED panel with FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, delivering the same buttery visuals as its bigger sibling. You also get a 50MP front camera for selfies and a large 5,500mAh battery that promises strong endurance. The compromise: charging tops out at 66W on the Lite, rather than the 100W speeds available on the standard nova 14.
Camera setup: RYYB main and a flexible ultrawide
Huawei kept the imaging chops relatively intact. The nova 14 Lite features a 50MP main camera with an RYYB sensor, which helps in low-light shots, plus an 8MP ultrawide that doubles as a macro lens. Unlike the vanilla nova 14, the Lite skips a third dedicated sensor, so you trade some versatility for savings.

Performance and software — the mysteries and the certainties
Huawei hasn’t confirmed the exact chipset for the nova 14 Lite, but industry chatter points to the Kirin 8000 — the same silicon rumored in the nova 14. On the software side, HarmonyOS 5.1 runs the show, bringing Huawei’s ecosystem features and optimizations.
Colors, storage and wallet-friendly pricing
The nova 14 Lite arrives in Ice Blue, Frost White, and Feather Sand Black. Chinese pricing starts at CNY 2,149 (about $301) for the 256GB model and CNY 2,449 for the 512GB trim. That puts it squarely in the midrange segment, offering flagship-style display and cameras with a few conscious compromises.
If you want high refresh-rate OLED and a large battery without paying flagship premiums, the nova 14 Lite could be an attractive pick — as long as you’re comfortable with slower charging and a slightly pared-down camera array.
