Indian tech brand Ai+ announced a trio of new smartphones at a big launch event today. Nova Flip is the brand’s first foldable phone, opting for a flip-style design. Nova 2 and Nova 2 Ultra are conventional slab phones with 6,000mAh batteries, 5G connectivity and 50MP main cams.

This is the first foldable phone from the brand, and at first glance, it sure looks like a Nubia Flip 2. A closer examination of its specs reveals that’s the case, with the only exception being that the Nova Flip runs on nxtQ OS based on Android 15.
Outside of the software department, Ai+ Nova Flip shares the exact same specs as the nubia Flip 2, including a 6.9-inch foldable OLED main display (FHD+ 120Hz), MediaTek’s Dimensity 7300X chipset and a 4,325mAh battery with 33W charging.
You also get a 3-inch OLED cover screen, a 50MP main cam, a 2MP depth sensor and a 32MP front-facing module. Ai+ Nova Flip comes in a single Glacier White color and will retail for INR 49,999 ($540) in its 8/256GB trim. The phone will be available from May via partnering retailers in India.
