Nova and Nova Plus: new smartphones Huawei |
Huawei Nova Plus - Release date and price
Huawei Nova Plus will not be sold on the French market. In France, only Huawei Nova, with 32 GB of memory and 3GB of RAM, will be available for sale in mid-October at a price of 369 euros. Three colors are offered (Titanium Grey, Luxury Mystic Silver and Gold).
Huawei Nova Plus - Design and finishing
The Nova and Nova Plus have both an arched body and a premium design. The difference between the two devices is primarily at waist level since the Nova has a 5-inch screen while the Nova Plus has a 5.5 inch screen. Battery and megapixel camera also differ between the two models, but the specifications and software features are almost the same.
LIn the Plus version, the camera lens is focused toward the center of the device and has a circular shape. To the left we find the flash, below, we find the fingerprint reader that has a square shape as well. During the presentation of the device, the CEO noted that the location of the objective of the camera plays a role in the strength of the device and allows placing a larger battery.
Huawei Nova Plus - Screen
Huawei Nova has a 5-inch screen with a resolution Full-HD. In Nova Plus, the definition remains the same but the diagonal increases to 5.5 inches. Both devices use eye protection system that helps prevent eyestrain. The screen is bright but it will have to further investigate and test it under the sunlight.
Huawei Nova Plus - Software Interface
Inside, we find Android 6.0 with Marshmallow brand interface EMUI in its version 4.1. The settings menu and quick access is the same as that on the P9. In the short time I spent with the phone, I have not encountered any crash problem or slowdown.
With Knucle Sense Technology, it is possible to change the size of photos or videos, and with a double tap on the screen you can take a screenshot.
Huawei Nova Plus - Performances
The Nova and Nova Plus have the same specifications except on two points: the battery and the camera. Under the hood we find a Snapdragon processor 625 (octal-core) that operates at a frequency of 2 GHz, backed by 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory.
The transition from one application to another is smooth and I managed to play Asphalt Nitro for a few minutes without any major problems. Our full test we will see more concretely what the device is capable.
Huawei Nova Plus - Camera
During the presentation, the brand has expanded on the picture potential of both devices, and particularly on the front camera that can succeed in selfies even when lighting is poor. You can also optimize the colors of the skin through filters and effects present on the application. Not surprisingly, we found the blogger Xenia Tchoumi for the presentation of the picture potential of these two smartphones.
Nova has a primary camera of 12 megapixels and a front camera of 8 megapixels, while the Nova Plus 16 megapixel rear camera and 8 also at the front.
The front camera also has an optical stabilizer and an anti-shake function to make better selfies. At our final test, we will see if they are as good as the Huawei claims
Huawei Nova Plus - Autonomy
Nova has a non-removable battery of 3020 mAh, whereas that of Nova Plus has a capacity of 3340 mAh. Both smartphones have the quick recharging mode.
The followers of Pokémon GO will be delighted to learn that, as Nova, the brand promises 5 hours of battery involved 48 hours of normal use, 16 hours of surfing 4G, 13 hours of HD video viewing and 73 hours of music.
For Nova Plus, Huawei promises 52 hours of battery life in typical use, 18 hours of 4G browsing, 15 hours of HD video viewing and 82 hours of music. We will check all this of course in our final test in order to see the true potential of the device.
