In December 2019, Huawei introduced its next novelty Nova 6 SE in China. Users met the novelty well, and this model quickly gained popularity in China. They decided to release the model on the global market under a different name - Nova 7 i. The device itself will not differ in any way from its Chinese counterpart. It's still the same smartphone, but under a different name.
An interesting feature of the novelty is the proprietary eight-core processor Kirin 810. This is the first smartphone that enters the global market with such a processor. Since earlier this processor was installed only on devices that were produced for China.
Also, the novelty boasts an installed quad camera, which has a main sensor from Sony. Cameras will really be able to surprise all sophisticated users.

The design of the smartphone is nothing special. This is another typical novelty with a beautiful camera module, everything else is done in a standard style. However, the smartphone boasts high-quality materials and excellent assembly. The entire front of the Nova 7 i is made of good quality glass. Under the glass on the entire front is the display. The front camera is neatly embedded in the upper right corner of the screen.
The back of the smartphone is made of high quality plastic. Looks good. It is quite pleasant to the touch and lies perfectly in the hand. The side frames of the smartphone are also made of plastic. But at the same time, it does not spoil the appearance and looks decent.
On the left side of the novelty is a volume control button and a fingerprint scanner. On the right side there is a power button and a slot for SIM cards. There are three objects at the bottom of the phone.The first is a headphone port, the second is Type-C 1.0 for charging and the speaker of the device itself.
It was decided to release the Nova 7 i smartphone in three colors:
The novelty Nova 7 i received a pretty good IPS capacitive touch screen. The diagonal is 6.4 inches. It has a large stock of 16M colors. And its resolution of 2340 by 1080 allows you to comfortably watch any movies and videos on your device in the best quality. And also when playing games it will be very comfortable, since each element will be well displayed on the screen. All smartphone manufacturers pay great attention to the selection of the display, since it is with it that acquaintance with the smartphone begins. Therefore, Huawei also tried to install a high-quality screen in its new product, which any user can like from the first minute. All elements on the display are displayed beautifully and richly. The margin of brightness at the screen is on top. They can be easily used even in the sunniest weather. The pixel density is also quite good at 398 ppi.
Summing up, we can safely say that the company has chosen a pretty good screen for its new product. He is able to pleasantly surprise any user.
With the technical characteristics of the novelty, everything is at a good level. The smartphone is able to surprise with its work and speed. It was a big surprise that the company decided to keep the HiSilicon Kirin 810 processor for the global market. Although, perhaps due to this, the smartphone will be in demand among users who want to see what this eight-core platform is capable of. The rest of the technical parameters are also at a good level.The developers installed 8 GB of RAM. This indicator is enough for fast operation of the device for any tasks. The internal memory is 128 GB and it is possible to increase it by adding a memory card. In order to comfortably play all the gaming news, the company installed an ARM Mali-G52 MP6 GPU graphics accelerator in the device. He does an excellent job with all the tasks and is able to pleasantly surprise.
The Nova 7 i performed fairly well in our testing. Which makes the device even more attractive to the end user. Basically, the technical characteristics are at the standard level. The processor is what really sets the Nova 7i apart.
In addition to the main set of technical capabilities, the novelty also has standard additional functionality, which includes: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5 LE, GPS, and a USB Type-C 1.0 port. There is also a fingerprint scanner on the side. However, this is now hard to surprise. The only difference in technical characteristics between the novelty and the Chinese counterpart is the absence of an NFC module. Why the company did not leave this module in Nova 7 i is unknown. Although, most likely, this is due to the refusal of the company from Google services.
The cameras in the novelty remained the same as in the Nova 6 SE. However, this is a good plus. Because the company has spent a lot of effort on the development of this camera module. And it turned out to be quite good for them and is able to please with its performance. The most basic and interesting is the main camera, which has a Sony IMX586 sensor. This sensor is the most popular and has excellent performance. Aperture at the main camera F / 1.8.The camera itself has 48 megapixels. Pretty impressive numbers. But we should not forget about the remaining three cameras, which help to take pictures even better. The second camera is no less important and is an 8 MP ultra-wide angle. She does her job well. The third and fourth cameras are 2 megapixels. One is a macro module, and the second provides the depth of images. They are also equally important. Because it is all the cameras together that make amazing pictures, and not each separately. This is the whole main point of the camera module.
As for the front camera, there is also a good 16 MP variant with f/2.0 aperture. The camera itself is neatly located in the screen of the device. At the moment, front modules are also in great demand, since they use it very often. Therefore, the company installed this camera in its device, which everyone will like.
With the operating system of a smartphone, everything is quite difficult. The new product has Android 10 installed. However, Google services are not in it. Instead, manufacturers have installed HMS (Huawei Mobile Service). And instead of Google Play, the App Gallery app store is installed. A very interesting and funny solution was provided by Huawei in its new product. It is not known how users will accept this, since everyone has long been accustomed to all Google services. And with this device, you will have to get used to everything and adjust again.
However, the company, in addition to the operating system, installed its proprietary EMUI 10 interface, which made big changes with the system itself. The first thing that has changed is the graphical execution of all elements.And also the interface saved the device from unnecessary garbage and unnecessary applications. Therefore, the output is a well-performing operating system with a beautiful graphical interface.
In order for all of the above to work, manufacturers installed a 4200 mAh non-removable Li-Po battery. The battery is able to provide the novelty with a fairly long work without recharging. The device itself was completed with components that consume a minimum amount of energy. Therefore, the smartphone is capable of continuous operation up to 11 hours. The indicator is quite good for a smartphone in its price category. However, manufacturers decided to play it safe and installed the ability to quickly charge the battery in Nova 7 i. Basically, the smartphone owes its autonomy to the battery, which is made with high quality and has a long service life.
Smartphone Huawei Nova 7 i is a modern high-quality device. It is made of durable plastic and looks good. There are no questions about the design of the smartphone. Everything is done neatly and is in its place. The only thing that stands out in the novelty is the color performance, of which there are three.
With performance, everything is quite interesting. How will the processor show itself. And how will users receive it? Although if you take into account its performance in the tests, then it is quite good and can compete with the existing ones. In all other respects, the novelty is at a confident average level. He is able to complete all tasks quickly and efficiently. And this, most importantly, for any smartphone.
The cameras on the phone are pretty good. It has an excellent main module and a good front camera.For lovers of photos and videos, this device will be a good option.
For buying a new device, this option is optimal. Because it is a good combination of price and quality. The only thing that can scare away from Nova 7 i is the lack of Google services. But you should not be particularly afraid of this, since Huawei has thought through everything to the smallest detail and was able to replace the missing services with its new developments.
