Huawei Nova 2i Reviews
Evaluation

Advantages: Large 5.9 screen with the same dimensions as the usual 5.5 smartphones. Thin, conveniently lying in a hand with excellent ergonomics. Bumper in a set. Unclosed sheath. Good cameras. Reactive multi-functional fingerprint scanner. 64 GB on board. "Alice" in the kit. Although the latter is debatable
Disadvantages: the processor-battery combination turned out to be not so energy efficient: it’s really hard not to launch heavy applications, it’s quiet for 2-3 days, but it’s worth starting a toy and the charge just melts in front of you in 3-4 hours
Comment: Choose a smartphone in the mid-budget category: xiaomi mi A1, meizu m6 note, plus 2-3 similar. It turned out, other things being equal, especially when buying a gray phone, neither xiaomi, nor meyz gain anything from a Huavei novelty, rather the contrary, including in price. Xiaomi has always been valuable with its shell, which is just deprived of A1, and with the price, which also in this case was not impressed. And the big screen predetermined the choice, with which I am completely satisfied. The screen is gorgeous, from whom and there flickered, I do not understand. The processor on all 100 copes with all tasks. I also liked the camera, but I had to get used to it after Asus’s past. Sound? A loud enough call, youtube can be watched with sound, but listening to music just from the phone seems to me to say the least irrational, because the high-quality transmission of melodies by the speaker of the phone ... don't care, in short ... What puzzled is the processor's energy vigor in games. Although it may be a question not to the processor. But the bataraea is consumed very quickly. Everything else is full of delight. Samsung for the same money full of cocoa.

Advantages: There is a cool huge screen and with the dimensions that allow one-handed operation, I don’t know what does not suit people in the cameras, but with the minimum time spent on settings, the cameras are only going on the road, with ANY lighting. I would like the batteries to be stronger, but, oddly enough, I, who have a good job with the tasks, live quietly until the evening. The scanner works fine, pleased with its additional features.
Disadvantages: As a player, the phone is rather weak, the sound in the headphones (not the drain) upset ...
The lack of contactless payment, but oh well, it was my choice to buy this phone with the knowledge of this minus

Comment: The phone was very good! This is my third phone from Huawei, every time I return to them from other brands. My touchscreen phones look like the Chinese invasion Huawei d1 -> Lenovo p780 -> honor 4x -> xiaomi rmn3pro -> nova 2i. Whatever they say, Huawei cameras are able to do it a long time ago (d1 put a good soap box at a time when shooting a video at night). And my every purchase of Huawei begins with the fact that I am going to buy a more expensive phone, but every time I incline to this company.
P.S. I do not play games, the phone is used for calls, instant messengers, traveling around the Internet and the roads of Moscow, and taking photos
Happy New Year)))

Advantages: -Design. For my taste, the device looks very beautiful. I liked black more than blue
-Screen. It's great that the screen takes up almost the entire panel. With a diagonal of 5.9 width as the standard screen 5.5, additional space is formed in height
-Fingerprint sensor works perfectly

-Fingerprint sensor works perfectly
Disadvantages: -The size is a bit too big for me, it fits in most trouser pockets, but not all
-The camera is very good at photographing in bright light, and indoors with ordinary lamps is rather mediocre.
-The lack of hardware buttons for my taste is not very convenient, although it is a trifle
-Vibration is rather weak

Comment: In general, the device is satisfied, I recommend to buy. I expected more from the camera; I really take a good photo only during the day outside or in a brightly lit room.
A few more disappointed in battery life - usually enough for a day, but often back to back.
Not bad that comes with a case, although rather mediocre, but for the first few weeks, while you buy a better one, it will come down.
Judging by the reviews, Nova 2 (without i) takes better pictures, and the headphones come with better ones.

Advantages: Great appearance, the display is 6 inches more compact than 5.5 inch on other devices, excellent color reproduction. The fingerprint scanner works wonderfully, in addition to the main function, it can be used for paging through photos, answering a call and so on. When using two SIM cards, the radio modules work simultaneously. The processor is of average performance, but it works quite smoothly and does not heat up.
Disadvantages: The camera may improve with new firmware, but for now quality photos come out only with good light. The front camera also works well in bright light, and in low light conditions, despite the front flash is a quiet horror, photos are out of focus and fiercely grained.
No type-c and nfc, no gyroscope and hall sensor.
When you turn on the automatic backlight adjustment, the screen is dark, but it reduces energy consumption.
The display, albeit with oleophobic coating, but not gorilla glass, so that the protective glass is not superfluous.

Comment: The device is perfectly in the hand, but to the very top of the reach is rather complicated, you have to intercept with your other hand. The metal case is slippery, but not critical, and the silicone case will help out. The battery would have been more powerful, but in normal use it will be enough for just a day. The sound of the external speaker is average in quality, it is worse than in Mate 8 and 9, but overall very decent.The sound in the headphones is also not affected by the sound quality, connoisseurs of high-quality sound will be disappointed. The device is definitely worth the money.

Advantages: a well-knit case and a relatively small one with a huge screen, enough charge for a day, even in the evening there is still time at home to watch the news .. good cameras.
Disadvantages: It’s a pity that the screen is not Amoled - after using a smartphone with an Amoled screen, the colors appear somewhat "greyish", not juicy, but not critical - to an amateur))). Grieves USB-connector of the old sample, who can still need the NFC-module, so it is not ...
Comment: Friends! Good all the time of day! I recently purchased this device, as I signed in one of the community news. Send questions from other people.
Camera! Even two double !! On this occasion, I can only express my opinion, without pretending that this will be the absolute truth. Let's get started Poooohealii !!! The camera in the phone is a toy! Yes, now this option in smartphones has very much made a step forward and at the moment it easily replaces soap boxes even in image quality, not to mention convenience, but they will never get to DSLRs or system cameras with interchangeable lenses. Let me explain with a simple example: for a good picture, LENS is first of all necessary, the price of a normal lens starts FROM $ 1000, and a good one FROM $ 2000, what do you want from the device for $ 250-300 ??? It is the lens that forms the quality picture, and the matrix in the camera only captures it, while the larger the matrix (simplerly speaking), the more light, and therefore more shades of colors it perceives. A large matrix in a small, elegant body of the smartphone simply does not fit. Those “artistic” frame processing functions in Nova 2i work very roughly and I do not recommend using them. With all this, the smartphone has a big plus compared to the SLRs - it is always with you and you can capture an event almost instantly and without much knowledge about photography. And the majority of users is satisfied with the quality of such photos, so you can safely use and enjoy! But if you want an artistic photo - this is for the pro!

Advantages: The screen is huge, juicy, with a pleasant color rendition, does not flicker.
Camera - a smartphone takes very good pictures on the front and main camera. Those who complain about bad photos in low light, I do not believe, because shot under different conditions and photos at the level.
Yes, this is not a professional camera, but smartphones for 50k and higher will not give you a picture comparable to a professional camera, so it’s foolish to look for flaws in the phone’s camera - for this is a different technique.
Performance - 4 / 64GB connectivity is enough for a long time, the smartphone is smart enough, does not slow down, does not freeze.
Battery - in the mode: messengers / social networks / calls / surfing the Internet / photo, I have enough for 2 days, in order to land the battery in a day I have to try very hard.
The shell is convenient, informative.
The speaker is loud, the sound is pleasant.
The sound in the headphones is at the level, for the most fastidious there is an equalizer.
Dimensions - in size it is less than 5.5 "smartphones, but the screen is almost 6"!
The body is metal, does not creak, the buttons do not play.
It comes with a hard case, it is very convenient with it - the camera and the screen are not scratched, the phone does not slip in your hand.

Disadvantages: It was not revealed, except that it was possible not to save money on NFC, but for 15990 on pre-order, also with a Honor band3 as a gift, this is an inconsequential drawback. By the way, it's not a fact that you will use NFC.
Comment: I use it for about 2 weeks and I can say that the device is simply gorgeous, everything suits me.
Smartphone for those who want a large screen in a compact package, excellent cameras, performance, no jambs, a long-lasting battery and a convenient shell without any problems with flashing.
By the way, the absence of a type is also not annoying, since In the presence of a lot of laces with the usual usb from old phones, which I successfully use.
This smart will not suit geeks, gamers and so-called "photographers" for whom the canon 5d is ideal with fix 1.2
