Editorial report
Hotwav Note 12 2024 technical sheet
The Hotwav Note 12 2024 suits people looking for a large display and a battery with more capacity than most phones launched around the same time. Its main trade-offs are performance and several display specifications that fall below most.
The 6.8-inch IPS LCD has a 90 Hz refresh rate, 720 × 1640 px resolution and 409 ppi density. That pixel density is higher than on most phones of its time, while 500-nit brightness and the 90 Hz refresh rate are below most; its screen-to-body ratio is among the weakest. The Unisoc Tiger T606 pairs with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. Those memory capacities and its AnTuTu result of 256,000 are below most, although storage is expandable.
The 48 MP rear camera has an f/1.8 aperture and a 1/2-inch sensor, with no optical image stabilization. Its resolution and sensor size are below most, while the camera overall is typical. The front camera is 16 MP. Its 6180 mAh battery has more capacity than most, but 18 W fast charging is below most. The phone weighs 220 g, runs Android 14 and includes Google Services; it also supports dual SIM, NFC and Bluetooth 5.0.
With an overall NeoScore of 4.8, this is a choice for people who prioritize a large display and battery capacity over performance and a brighter screen.
