Ai+ is preparing to expand its footprint in the Indian smartphone market with the official debut of the Nova 2 series on April 9. CEO Madhav Sheth confirmed the timeline via social media, initiating a three-day countdown for the launch of the Ai+ Nova 2 5G and the Ai+ Nova 2 Ultra 5G. Positioned above the brand’s entry-level Pulse lineup, the new series aims to combine aesthetic flair with functional 5G performance to capture the competitive budget and mid-range segments.
The upcoming handsets introduce a distinctive design language, highlighted by red-accented power buttons across both models. While the standard Nova 2 5G features a familiar square camera module, the Ultra variant adopts a pill-shaped island reminiscent of recent flagship designs. A standout feature for the Ultra model is a customisable circular light ring situated at the bottom of the rear panel, which serves as a notification system for calls, messages, and music playback.
