A lot of beauty in this beast

Huawei was mainly present in India through its sister brand, Honor. But in 2018, the Chinese automaker has shown itself more optimistic about its own brand on the world's second largest smartphone market. Earlier this year, we saw the Huawei P20 Pro come to India, and now we have the Nova series debuting in the country, with Nova 3 and Nova 3i. We have Nova 3 and well, we must admit that she visually hits all the right chords. And do not hurt too much in the specification department.

We had the Iris Purple Edition of the device and well, we had questions about it every time we left it up on the table. Not only is this hue unique, but the glass back seems to change color as the light falls from different angles, sometimes from blue to purple. This is without a doubt the most striking feature we've seen in a while, and that sits right next to the red OnePlus as a head turner, although we doubt that the phone's black-and-white edition will attract so much attention.

And it's good that the b l 'ack is exceptional, because in front, the Nova 3 sticks pretty much to the l & # 39; "Big" display (aspect ratio of 19.5: 9) with a notch and reduced glasses, although it becomes one of the first phones we saw cameras as well that an infrared sensor (for Face ID) in this space. There are also two cameras at the back, as well as a fingerprint scanner. The construction is glass but is impressive solid and compact. Huawei squeezed into a 6.3-inch screen in a frame only 157 mm in height and an impressive thickness of 7.3 mm and managed to maintain the weight at 166 grams. No, we will not say that it is ideal for one-handed use, but given the size of the screen, the Nova 3 is very compact and feels premium. However, there is no mention of resistance to water and dust.

And in this relatively compact setting is squeezed rather heavy material. It is powered by the HiSilcion Kirin 970 processor (seen in the super P20 Pro, too) and paired with a 6GB RAM heavyweight and 128GB of storage (expandable using one of the two SIM card slots ). While on the subject of treatment, the phone comes with Huawei's GPU Turbo graphics processing support, which is supposed to provide even more high-quality games. The game seems to be one of the keystones of the Nova 3 – there are even different vibrations on the phone for different game scenarios. Then there are the four high-profile cameras – a pair of 24 megapixels and 2 megapixel front in this notch, and a combo of 24 megapixels and 16 megapixels (both with f / 1.8 aperture) on the back. Both are said to have major artificial intelligence, such as the detection of scenes and the identification of objects on photographs and the like. Connectivity options include 4G, Bluetooth, GPS and Wi-Fi. All this is powered by a 3750 mAh with support for fast charging. Running on all this is EMUI 8.2, with Android 8.1 at the base.

All this at Rs 34,999, wh I throw the Nova 3 in the right not only with the OnePlus 6, but also with his own cousin just as beautiful, the Honor 10 It looks, the specifications and frankly on paper, seems a very decent proposal for this price. But how fascinating it will be revealed in our detailed review. Stay tuned.
